Teri Hatcher Likes to Gamble, Says It's to Teach Her Daughter Math

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 15:05:00 GMT

Desperate Housewives star Teri Hatcher likes to hit the track every once in a while, but don't think she's just throwing her money away. Hatcher says she uses the outing to help daughter Emerson Rose, 11, with her math skills.

"I go to the track with my mother and my daughter,’ the actress says of her annual Mother's Day outing with Emerson and her own mom, Esther. ‘I do use the opportunity to make [Emerson] understand math, and what you’re betting and what you get back. This year, she did all the winning.

"I gave her a certain amount of dollar bills and she knew she had to divide them up by how many races there were, and figure out the odds…I made myself believe I was giving her math lessons. So we work on math. It’s fun."

I don't blame Teri - us moms have to get creative to justify our personal time. For example, I use my daily Starbucks runs to teach my daughters about caffeine addiction, and how to hone their people skills. You won't get that extra shot of espresso for free if you're mean to the barista.

Teri Hatcher Shows Off Bikini Bod!

Sassy Smith — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 15:05:00 GMT

At 44, Teri Hatcher's still got it! The Desperate Housewives actress showed off her sexy abs while enjoying the surf and sun in Miami with daughter Emerson.

Couple more pics after the jump

Teri, as a single mom, knows how to balance work and motherhood. Besides her TV gig, Hatcher sometimes sings (remember her American Idol stint?) - and joined the Band from TV on stage at the Shore Club.

Eva Longoria Adopting?

Sassy Smith — Tue, 05 May 2009 15:01:00 GMT

Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria and husband, San Antonio Spurs star, Tony Parker, have both said they would love to have children, and hope to start a family in the near future. Is Eva looking at adoption?

Possibly!

Longoria told E! News, "Every time I work with the kids from Padres [a childrens hospital in Los Angeles], my heart just explodes with happiness and joy because they're so inspiring.

"They're resilient and they're hopeful and they're happy. They're amazing human beings, and to go through something like that and yet still be as strong as they [are], it really inspires me. I could only wish to have children as strong as the kids I've worked with."

When asked if being around children in need makes her want to adopt a child, Eva said, "Of course."

Eva Longoria - Let the Rumors Begin

I really hope that she has make up on for her character on "Desperate Housewives". If it's not makeup, then we should expect for the pregnancy rumors to start, right about, NOW!

Is Eva Longoria finally pregnant?

Okay, on to other things. This has to be the most unflattering picture of her, I've ever laid eyes on, the angle is all wrong for her. Either the angle was wrong or someone was mean and photoshopped the heck out of the picture.

William H. Macy Gives The Best Parenting Advice, Ever!

trix — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 14:31:00 GMT

William H. Macy and his wife Felicity Huffman must have the strongest marriage ever. I say this because he has the best relationship advice for new parents.

“When my pals have kids, I look at them and say ‘look, these kids are almost bullet proof. They can take anything, but I tell you what’s on the critical list: your relationship with your wife.’ You’d better make a date and take your wife out within a month – whether you want to, or not – and you can’t talk about the kid. And you’d better have a romantic weekend within two months because it tears couples apart, these babies do.”

Yeah!, I didn't follow that advice, I was too busy with a child that didn't sleep.

Do you have regular date nights with your significant other?

Marcia Cross Says No Sugar For You

trix — Fri, 20 Mar 2009 14:30:00 GMT

Marcia Cross is going to let her girls grow up as long as she can without sweets. Her kids are very healthy eaters and will be for as long as possible.

She says, “I keep them away from junk food. They don’t know about cookies yet so everything they eat is healthy,” she says. “They’ve had a bite of an organic cupcake for their birthday but it’s always healthy foods – especially now before they find out about junk food.”

I swear I try to limit my kids junk food intake, we do a pretty good job, but man, my kids are chocolate fiends. I made chocolate covered cherries and peppermint bark over the holidays and I swear I had to lock it down.

Felicity Huffman Was Scared of Motherhood

trix — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 16:33:00 GMT

Did you take to parenthood like a duck takes to water? I did not and as everyone else realize that it's kind of a learn as you go thing.

Felicity Huffman is just like the rest of us, she says she, “ Did not enter into motherhood with any sense of equanimity or grace", and that “I’m surrounded by women who are much better mothers than I am, and they come to it much more naturally.”

Oh Felicity, they are just faking it. Parenthood is hard, motherhood is harder than anything I've ever done.

She was very candid about her journey into motherhood in an interview and I just have to share it with you.

She explained her trepidation about motherhood, “I felt unequal to the task, I felt like I was moving from mistake to mistake, sleep-deprived forever.” She loves being a mom to her two girls but, she realizes, “Happiness is {not} anything like finding the perfect pair of black pants and breakfast in bed.”

She also explained why she doesn't bring her girls to work with her, “I’m not good at that multi-tasking thing: kids, conversation, kids, work. I find that very difficult. Also there is sort of a rarefied air around a set, which is weird.”

If she has a message for other parents struggling to “do it all,” it is this: ”Know your story, the story you have told yourself about your past…the decisions you have made.” That way, Felicity says, “at least when you are inflicting your unconscious or your views, you are a little bit aware of it.” When one of the girls recently lamented to Felicity that she feels “so different” from everyone else, Felicity told her she could relate. ”I said, ‘I think it’s part of human nature that you would feel different and that you would feel like you don’t belong,’” she recalls. “You feel like you are the odd one out… It just feels like that — even if you are the center of everything.”

I love the real moms in Hollywood that, yes, rely on a nanny while they are working, but actually dive in headfirst, during their "off" time.

By the way, how cute is that picture?

Marcia Cross and Tom Walk Their Girls

trix — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 18:19:00 GMT

Marcia Cross and her husband Tom Mahoney took their daughters out for a stroll in the rare, gloomy southern California weather. I think they need a couple more layers if they plan on going for a walk this weekend.

It's supposed to snow again, but on the plus side, it should make for some great celebrity photo opportunities.

Teri Hatcher: Playdate At The White House?

Sassy Smith — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 12:04:00 GMT

Teri Hatcher arrived at the 15th Annual Screen Actors Guild in Los Angeles Sunday night, looking very, uh, festive. I'm still undecided about her dress - it sort of looks like it's made of layers of tissue paper. But then again, I'm not into couture.

Couple more pics after the jump!

Dress aside, the Desperate Housewives actress dished on the red carpet, saying she'd love to babysit the Obama girls, Malia and Sasha.

Hatcher said, "I end up being the great babysitter at every event I ever go to. They'd come my way and I'd be the babysitter, which would be just fine...If we're ever so lucky to be invited."

Who knows? Maybe she and daughter Emerson Rose, 11, will someday be invited to the White House!

Okay - back to the dress - do you like it or not?

Here's Teri Hatcher of "Desperate Housewives" with her daughter, Emerson Rose (11), attending the Huffington Post's pre-inaugural ball on Monday. Teri, 44, was in New York City over the weekend. Emerson is Teri's daughter with ex-husband Jon Tenney.

I can't imagine freezing on the Mall on Tuesday just to watch the ants in the inauguration. I mean, that's what Barack looked like from wherever you were standing. Unless you happened to be Malia or Sasha.

Marcia, star of "Desperate Housewives," and Tom were married in 2006 and together the couple have twin daughters, Eden and Savannah, now almost 2.

Desperate: Eva Longoria's Heartbreak

Sassy Smith — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 15:06:00 GMT

Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria has been dogged with pregnancy rumors for the past year and while they were untrue, she really, really hopes that they will come true!

Eva's said she does want to start a family with husband Tony Parker, and the couple were reportedly trying.

"Eva was convinced she'd fall pregnant last summer and even told Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry that she was trying," says a friend.

"She and Tony are in despair because they've been trying for a while now without success."

Eva's said of having a family, "God will give us a child when He feels the time is right."

Although Eva, 33, has put on a bit of weight, it's for her role on the show as Gabrielle Solis. But she hopes to be gaining weight because of a baby, soon.

"Eva gets really upset about it all and says that a baby would make her family complete," adds the insider.

"She and Tony are so happy together and he longs to be a dad. But nothing's happened yet."

Have fun trying!

Eva Longoria Wants To Be Pregnant

Sassy Smith — Sun, 28 Dec 2008 13:07:00 GMT

Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria has been dogged with pregnancy rumors at least 23 times in the past year - seriously, her kid should be walking by this point - and although she's not really pregnant (or so she says...geez, there I go again), she sure wants to be!

Eva and husband NBA star Tony Parker, still have that newlywed romance burning inside.

"After one year you're not called newlyweds, but we still feel like we got married yesterday, " Eva told Extra. "Married life agrees with me because I'm very traditional and I'm very domestic and Tony is the same way."

The 33-year-old actress is anxious to get started on family life.

She added, "We can't wait to start a family. I'm so excited about that chapter in our lives and you'll know when it happens."

Longoria also talked about her guilty pleasures, which she may have to give up when she becomes a mom. Babies are demanding!

"I'm a spa junkie. If I have two hours before I have to go to set, I will run to the spa and get a massage and sit in the jacuzzi."

She admits to being a shoe chick (can't say I blame her on that one).

"I love shoes! They're beautifully made. They're displayed in my closet like art pieces."

Um, Eva Isn't Pregnant

I guess Eva Longoria was telling the truth, she isn't pregnant.

She spent the weekend in Puerto Rico where she attended Roselyn Sanchez's wedding to Eric Winter. She was photographed smoking a cigarette while she was hanging with the girls.

How long has she been a smoker and ewww, why?

I guess she wouldn't be sticking a cancer stick in her mouth if she was pregnant.

Nicolette Sheridan and David Spade Are Having Sex

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 21:05:00 GMT

I don't want to be mean, but how the hell does David Spade get all these women? He's dated Lara Flynn Boyle, Teri Hatcher and Heather Locklear and even had a baby with a Playboy Playmate. Now it's being reported that he's hooked up with Desperate Housewives star (and Michael Bolton's ex) Nicolette Sheridan. A source tells People Magazine that the two were spotted "full-on making out in a booth" during Sheridan's 45th birthday party at Luau in L.A. For some reason that makes me a little queasy.

I guess this proves that the funny/slightly annoying guys have a way with the ladies. Either that or Spade's got a big secret weapon up his pants. I mean sleeve.

Marcia Cross and Paparazzi Use Each Other

trix — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 14:29:00 GMT

Oh look, it's a heartwarming story of how the paparazzi can be of use to someone. It seems that Marcia Cross was at the airport last week and was dropped off at the wrong terminal at LAX. She only had a few minutes to catch her flight and the paparazzi surrounding her knew it.

One of the paparazzo was kind enough to offer her a ride and she was gracious enough to accept it.

So I guess this means that all paparazzi are not inherently evil. Dang it, now we have to wait for another great story about why the paparazzi are awful.

Shall we give it about 5 minutes?

Marcia Cross looks lovely. She was out shopping with her girls and it looks like she was getting quite a bit of attention.

She must have some help and someone pushing another cart for her, because you know she's not going to be able to fit any food in with those girls. Do you think she buys super healthy food, or is she a closet junk food addict?

When did her girls get so big?

I don't know if Savannah was there or if this was one of two trips. A little quality time with each kid is good. Two trips to the pumpkin patch makes Marcia a better mom than me.

Either way, it's cute stuff.

Eva Longoria Talks Babies

trix — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 11:31:00 GMT

All right, so she's not pregnant, she's just gained a little weight, I can accept that. After all, the rumors of her supposed pregnancy have been around for almost a year, and she hasn't popped out a kid yet. Eva Longoria has denied the rumors for so long now, that she has taken to talking about pregnancy, and what she would like to have in the future, you know, when she does get pregnant.
She and Tony are both from big families, and want to have several kids, and the sex doesn't matter. She told Pop Tarts, "People always say 'I want a boy! I want a girl!' I just think, 'Oh my gosh, I just want a healthy child,' that's truly a gift." She also said, "If you're a healthy adult, to complain about anything in life that's so minute, you really have to be grateful for everything that you have and do something with it."
So why haven't they been able to get pregnant yet? They say they practice all the time, what's the deal?

Eva Longoria PROVES She's Not Pregnant!

Is she or isn't she? That's what everyone wants to know - is Eva Longoria pregnant? Well, apparently she's not judging by the look of those tight jeans. I can't imagine where she'd be hiding a baby, or even a burger for that matter.

Couple more pics after the jump!

Recently, after hearing many rumors of her being with child, Eva just wanted everyone to know that she's just fat and not pregnant but I don't see any fat either. Sure she put on a wee bit of weight for her new role as mom on Desperate Housewives but really I'm not 100% sure where that's hiding either.

She looks great. And totally not pregnant. Darn.

Brand New Father Kyle MacLachlan Can't Get Enough of Dadhood

Karl Erikson — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 13:05:00 GMT

Kyle MacLachlan is a happy man. He's known perhaps more now for his role on "Desperate Housewives," but is probably still remembered for "Twin Peaks." And the 49-year-old is a brand new father to son Callum, who he calls "pretty adorable."

Every parent-to-be hears that life will never be the same after a child, and it's true. But you never believe it for yourself until it happens to you, till that baby drops. Kyle was another of countless people proved wrong. "It does change you, from the inside, and in a way that you really can't describe. It's a magical, magical thing."

Whenever Kyle has to travel from one coast to the other, he usually brings alone wife Desiree and Callum these days, and often on the red-eye flight. That way Callum sleeps the whole way.

He said that "breastmilk is like gold around the house. One time there was a spill of a bottle of pumped milk and it was tragic. That stuff is hard to come by!"

That is tragic. PETA could use that shit to make ice cream.
