Kevin Bacon Loves Making Music With His Kids

Sassy Smith — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 19:10:00 GMT

Actor Kevin Bacon's other passion is making music. He and his brother Michael formed The Bacon Brothers in 1995 and since then, have released four albums. Kevin also loves singing and performing with his kids - Travis Sedgwick, 19, and Sosie Ruth, 16.

Bacon says that his son is definitely passionate about singing. He said Travis "is in a few bands - and his passion is music." And even though both Kevin and wife Kyra Sedgwick act for a living, their kids, thus far, don't seem to have the acting bug.

Kevin says of daughter Sosie, "She's in high school and dealing with that. She's starting to think about college. So far she hasn't come to us and said, 'Guess what, I want to be an actress.'" He does say "she's a beautiful singer," and he enjoys singing with her.

The 50-year-old actor adds, "One of the things I really relish is the time when she'll come to me and say, 'Can we work on this song?' I'll figure it out and find a key that works for her, accompany her while she sings. It's my favoriite thing to do."

Oh, how I love me some Bacon!

Kevin and Kyra married in September of 1988. They're one of the true, solid celebrity couples who seem normal and family is obviously very important to them.

And just because - here's The Bacon Brothers singing "Go My Way":

Did you know I'm only six degrees from Kevin Bacon? Seriously, it's like 78° where Bacon is and it's 72° here. It's weird, isn't it?

Kevin Bacon has a new reality show coming out*. It's called "BACON'D" and it's fantastic. In it Kevin gets to release all of the tensions of acting, rocking, marriage and fatherhood and really let loose on unsuspecting people- that's right, people who suspect nothing. Suckers.

The preview of the new show is below, courtesy of Funny or Die:

Kevin Bacon Is Raising A Future 007

trix — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 23:31:00 GMT

Kevin Bacon's son Travis has high hopes for his career in acting. He is on a path to 007 greatness.

Kevin says he doesn't know what caused the fixation, but he said that his son sits around in a mini tuxedo and watches the Bond movies.

He said, "At nine, my son suddenly became a James Bond freak. He had to see every single one of the films, and had to see them again and again. He had a tuxedo that he wore all the time. We were in the Caribbean and it was 95 degrees. He was so obsessed with Bond."

That's too cute, everybody looks good in a tux.

Celebrity Moms Giving Advice: Kate Hudson,Kelly Preston & Kyra Sedgwick

Sassy Smith — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 15:32:00 GMT

Celebrity moms are just like us - except, you know, richer and more famous - and sometimes they have some great advice to give. Here's what Kate Hudson, Kelly Preston & Kyra Sedgwick had to say:

Kate Hudson, 28 - Mom to Ryder Russell, 4 (dad to Ryder is her ex-husband Chris Robinson):

Make sure to take time for yourself every day. Even if you have to lock yourself in the bathroom for two minutes, do it. It's our nature as women to take care of everything and forget about ourselves. It's important to be present and strong for your kids, and to do that, you need some breathing space.

Kelly Preston, 45, actress and is the wife of John Travolta and they have two children - Jett, now 15, and Ella, 7½:

There's nothing better than singing and dancing with your kids. It spreads the joy around the house. I'm also a fan of family bike riding, swimming, art projects and trips to Denny's and Wal-Mart.

Kyra Sedgwick, 42, and stars in The Closer's, is mom of two - Travis, 18, and Sosie, 16, and married to actor Kevin Bacon:

Raising children, for me, was really about listening. I put myself in their shoes for a minute and really tried to imagine myself at that age. I always want my children to know that they're heard.

These are three celeb moms who really do sound like the rest of us (kinda) - I picture them as 'hands on' moms sans nannies!

Kerry Katona Makes Britney Look Tame (Who The F*** is Kerry Katona?)

BadKitty — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 16:22:00 GMT

Those Brits. They really have the edge on us with reality tv, and consequently on supplies of F-List celebs making a hash of their lives in public. News of the World brings us the latest sensational story, that of Kerry Katona who was seen by her friend/housekeeper Louise Oortywn sniffing "lines of coke when she was four months gone."

While not the superstar that Britney is, Kerry had some singing success with girl group Atomic Kitten (warning, the site loads playing a bloody awful song.) She had some husbands, a couple of kids, was named Celebrity Mum of the Year, 2002 and 2005, oh and she also enjoyed psycho drug binges with the kids around and even when pregnant. This totally blows away a little head shaving and snatch flashing. It clear that Brit needs to amp up her game. She needs to do it for her fame, but more importantly for the good old US of A. We can't get beat by these British bitches!

Naturally Kerry has a tragic past. She lost her own mum when she was young, was brought up by foster parents and went to several schools. Demonstrating surprising savvy, or at the behest of a canny business manager, she capitalized on this with a "deeply personal" book Kerry, Too Much, Too Young. On the cover she's a winsome brunette, proving that a little hair dye and soft focus photography can mask a multitude of sins.

For those of you wondering but too lazy to go to the NoTW story or Kerry's wiki page, the baby she was carrying during the drug binge was born early and small - five pounds. No word yet on what's wrong with it, but if the drug stories are true, you know there's a charity ball/foundation for some fetal alcohol/awful childhood disease in Kerry's future.

Kerry is the latest in Famecrawler's "Who The F*** is" series. Like earlier "honorees" Myleene Klaas and Katie Price, Kerry was on I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, which is clearly a bigger deal in the UK than here. Kerry even won Season 3! And the similarities keep on coming. Guess who was also named Celebrity Mum of the Year 2007, beating out notables like Kate Moss, Jade Goody (probably our next Who The F*** ?) and That Dirty Whore Heather Mills. Drum roll...Jordan, aka Katie Price!

With all of this meta-connectivity, you know Kevin Bacon is just around the corner.
