Michelle Obama- Remembers Her Roots

Michelle Obama practices what she preaches. She has access to designers that we have never heard of for herself and her daughters, yet she still chooses to use the designers she has used in the past. Michelle showed great restraint in choosing her and the girls outfits.

Malia and Sasha both wore J.Crew and let me tell you, the J. Crew company was thrilled to be chosen.

Michelle told Jay Leno that she likes J. Crew and likes to shop in their store online.

At least we know she's loyal and not easily swayed by here status or celebrity.

Erykah Badu Is Expecting Baby # 3

trix — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 15:32:00 GMT

Erykah Badu is pregnant, again. She is expecting her third child, and I hope she has a name a little more conventional picked out for this one.

Her two children are named Seven Sirius, 10, and Puma Rose, 4.

She has three different baby daddies, Andre 3000, The D.O.C. and Jay Electronica and we can kind of see a trend in the naming pattern. The number name from a numbered daddy, and the shoe brand name from the daddy that used to be in the "Fila Fresh Crew". What could be in store for the newest Badu? There are so many choices it's kind of scary.

I'm all for interesting names, but you don't want the kid to totally get made fun of. Have you been around a mob of 10-12 year old kids? I have and they are ruthless, and have a no mercy rule.

Can't wait to hear what she's picked out.

Your Mother Does WHAT?

Guess which celebrity kid said, "My mommy works at night." And her office? "He'll point out motor homes along the road and say, 'That's where my mommy works.'"

"The implication, well..." Liv Tyler trails off with a laugh. At least she wasn't spooked again!

Does motherhood dictate what kinds of projects she chooses? No: "Whenever I hear actors say that, I think, Wow, they must really be in demand! I'm still trying to figure it all out. [Modeling and acting] are what I've done since I was 14, so it's not like I have another option. But the balance can be hard for me, because for my whole life, my dream was to be a mother."

Dad Gum these two are adorable, no?

In case you missed it, there's a great article on Liv regarding her latest movie, "Strangers."

Mom Liv Tyler Spooked by 'Strangers'

Karen — Tue, 27 May 2008 11:04:00 GMT

In her latest film role, actress and mother Liv Tyler was quite impressed with a few things while making this movie.

First, she was thrilled with audiences reactions to a scene where the 'strangers' break into the house.

"Everybody knows that feeling of hearing a sound, even in an apartment, and you think, 'What is that?' and you often go to look," she says. "Well, what if you went to look and there really was somebody standing in the room?

"Everybody says that moment just freaks them out so much," says Tyler. "And that makes me feel great. I really like that."

Secondly, Tyler made friends on set that helped her get through her break-up with husband of five years, British rocker Royston Langdon.

The actress hung out with the cast and the film's writer-director, Bryan Bertino, in "this amazing little town in the middle of nowhere in South Carolina [where] Bryan found this amazing little bar that was just a tiny little hole in the wall called Therapy Now.

"You had to be a member and there were about five people there, and we would go every Friday night and play pool and drink shots and do karaoke," says Tyler.

"I hadn't had fun like that in a long time, and I kind of needed that."

And yes, Tyler ended up crooning a song by her father, Aerosmith's Steven Tyler. "Bryan is Southern, so he knew all sorts of great country songs," says Tyler. "But one time we did a duet of 'What It Takes,' by my dad, which was hysterical."

Tyler confesses she also enjoyed working with and getting to know Speedman, whom she calls "a fantastic co-star."

"I didn't even really know who he was," she says. "I'm the worst. It happens with all of my co-stars. I'm like, 'Who's that?' And then I have to go [on the] Internet and, like, Google them.

"Of all the male actors that I've worked with, he was such an amazing support to me," adds Tyler. "And I needed a lot of support because, firstly, I was a new mom. My son was only a year-and-a-half old, and this was really my first movie back. It was physically, emotionally and in every way draining for me."

Tyler's plans for the summer? "I'm going to wait and go see ['The Strangers'] with my sister, Mia, in [a] movie theater," says Tyler. "I want to see it with an audience. I just can't wait to sit down with my sister, because we both like horror movies."
