Denise Richards Won't Discuss Weight With Daughters

Sassy Smith — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 11:03:00 GMT

Denise Richards is on the cover of Shape's May issue and she discusses body image and how it pertains to her two young daughters.

Richards says, "They'll never hear me say, 'Mommy's feeling fat today.' That kind of attitude just makes young girls grow up to be dissatisfied with their bodies."

Denise said that being fit comes with her job and she hopes that her healthy attitude towards eating and being fit will stick with her girls as they grow up.

"Working out is part of my life, not just an I-have-to-get-ready-for-a-photo-shoot thing. I exercise almost every day. The girls usually play in the workout room with me, so they're learning by example."

The actress wants Sam and Lola to feel good about themselves, and it's that positive attitude that she inherited from her mom Joni, who passed away recently. She said, "Even at the end, when things were really dire for my mother, she was never negative. There was an inner strength about her."

You know, I've rarely written anything favorable about Denise (I still don't like the fact that she puts her girls on a reality show) but I do have to give her credit for giving her girls a positive attitude about body and self image. It's hard parenting little girls in this day and age because we are all bombarded with unrealistic images on magazines and TV etc, and it's sometimes a tough battle showing girls it's okay to not to be a size zero and still be fit in mind and body. I believe Denise is on the right track about this! Now if she'd stop exploiting them on television, then I'd be even more impressed.

Denise Richards Is An Obnoxious Mother

Sassy Smith — Wed, 26 Mar 2008 16:01:00 GMT

I don't know Denise Richards personally, but seriously, the more I hear about her, the more I think she gives off a certain vibe: OBNOXIOUS.

For her daughter Sam's fourth birthday party, she decided on a "spa day." The kid is four - how about barbies or magic or one of those jumping things? Nope, let's send the preschoolers to a spa. If her daughter was turning 13, that might be a more age appropriate idea, but, I think there's more to it than just trying to be a bit "showy."

From the Star:

“There was a sign on the front door that said ‘Sammi’s Spa,’” a source tells Star. “And waiting there were tiny bathrobes monogrammed with each kid’s name,” the source notes. All the girls got their nails painted and their hair done, while the boy’s hair was styled into Mohawks.

Oh let's note that this was all filmed for Richards' reality TV show, so I'm quite certain the sheesheepoopoo spa day wasn't about the four year olds, more likely a publicity stunt to make Denise look like a super fantastic awesome mom who knows how to throw a party! Sorry, but I think it makes her look like a douche - she and Charlie are tied now.

Denise and Charlie had battled it out in court - whether or not the reality show would be a reality - and she won. Richards claimed that her girls wanted to be on TV and they love to dress up and get their hair done. Um, sure little girls love to do that stuff but uh, they can do that without being paraded around on TV. They're 2 and 4, so yes, they probably know what's best for themselves and being exploited on television is the way to go.

Denise recently had her name changed to get rid of her married name "Sheen" and had her "Charlie" tattoo changed into a fairy. Fine, you're divorced, so I don't blame her for changing her name or getting rid of the tattoo, but it's almost as if she's wanting to rid Charlie from her life forever. Good luck with that - Charlie is the father of your babies, so I doubt he's going away anytime soon.

I'm sure her show will be a hit and make her look like the fantastic mother she is. You know, I wonder why these two got divorced? They seem to be made for each other.
