What are you doing to keep fit? I laugh a lot, sleep a lot, take at least three 30-minute walks each day and chase my son around. I get prenatal massages, and my arms are getting toned by picking up Sean Preston all the time. I will say for mothers out there who are pregnant, its important not to let themselves go. Sleep when you can. Get up and walk and have good people around and good friends. Stuff like that.
Where were you when you found out that you were pregnant for the second time? Oh, my gosh, where was I when I found out? I was at my house in Malibu. I don't remember the day exactly. I remember being excited, though.
You don't even look like that youre that far along. Are you feeling slimmer this time? Yeah, I really stayed in my house a lot the last pregnancy because there were so many paparazzi outside. I didn't do anything. For this one, I don't know what happened but they've really started to leave me alone. I can get out and do stuff now.
It's very busy being a young mom, isn't it? Yes! When he goes to sleep, like he is now, I treasure those moments!
Are you eating any special healthy foods for your pregnancy or having any cravings? I crave ice! I can't stop eating ice. I think I have elephant teeth or something! I love it, I love it, I love it!
Did you have that craving last time too or is it new? No, I did it for the last pregnancy too, but its really for this pregnancy. My temperature goes really hot and really cold so it keeps me cooled down.
Do you know the sex of the baby yet? We don't know. I don't care, as long as it's healthy. That's all that matters.
Were you surprised how quickly you became pregnant after Sean Preston? Yes, very surprised, but I was excited! I was a little scared at first because I was shocked because it was so soon. I was like, It's okay - I love boo boos!
Have you thought about how many kids you would like to have? I could have three. If I did have three, I would wait a lot to have the next one.
How did Kevin react when he found out you were pregnant again? He was a little shocked (laughs).
What did he say to you? He was like, 'Whatever you want to do, baby!' He's like, 'I'm excited for you! Lets just go for it.'
So he was supportive? Definitely.
What about your mom and dad? They were a little shocked, too. But they also love boo boos, so they're excited.
Have you thought of any names? I've got a couple.
Can you reveal what they are? I don't know yet. There are just so many cute names out there. I'm still looking.
Motherhood is such a beautiful thing - how has it changed you? I think your perspective on things is kind of different. You look at things from a broader spectrum, which I think is really healthy.
What have you learned about yourself since having a baby? That nothing is what it seems.
Is there a place where you thought youd be at this point in your life? I learn something new every single day.
We dont see you that much on the red carpet now that you're a mom. Your priorities must have changed enormously. The main thing is I still have fun, but I have such a big responsibility now. I think just that in itself changes you. Having a child is such a big, life-changing experience. It's going to affect you in a huge way, even the people I hang out with. Basically when you boil down it down, you don't have time for any B.S.! [laughs] You know what you like and what you want and what's good for your child. Every decision you make is based on what's best for them.
How do you balance your family life with work? I'm still trying to figure that out-taking it day by day.
What do you think the advantages are of being a younger mom? My mom was a young mom, and I've looked up to her. I just feel that it's so important to instill so many good beliefs in your children. I think I'm younger doing that - I'll have more energy in being able to bring up more positive kids than if Im 40! But there are parents that are 40 that do a damn good job. I always wanted to be a young mom.
Are you someone who needs me time and to be alone at times? Yes, I think it's healthy for everyone to have a little bit of alone time, whether it's taking a bath, reading a book or going for a walk by yourself.
For some people, being a mother in their 20s is hard. You've done all the parties when you were a teenager, but a lot of people in their 20s still want to party. Because I have done that for so long, some people think where my head is still at - to go out. I love to have a good time but you have to be bold with who you are and stand up for what you believe in. There are a lot people - even cousins and siblings - that think you're in a different place. I've always been a people pleaser and having a son has made me really put my foot down. You may hurt some people along the way, but I just think it's basically standing up for what you believe in.
Are you saying that you've cut some people out of your life? I've had to cut so many people out of my life. It's kind of weird. Even the whole public persona of me, with the media, it's like, you really just have to leave me alone right now. I think they are getting the picture. It's a blessing and I'm very thankful for it. But that transition in my life was kind of hard. I think it's a big part of growing up. As you get older, being an entertainer and wanting to please people - it's harder to do.
What have you learned from the last year? To enjoy every moment.
Most moms, especially with their first-born, have so many things they go through. You're having to do it in front of everyone. It must be hard. Yeah, I will have to say the pregnancy with Preston wasnt a thing of ice cream! Wherever I was going, like just going to the park - things like that are sacred things.
What is the hardest thing about being a mom in the media spotlight? To sum it all up in a nutshell: Being a mom is one of the most sacred things there is. I didn't want to respond to a lot of things [the magazines] were saying because it was trash. I had a trip to New York that was kind of scary. It was like I had a movie or album coming out. It was kind of ridiculous how many paparazzi were there when I actually went there to get away from them - usually New York is kind of cool as far as that stuff. I was scared. I only had one security guy there with me. Because of incidents like that, I feel like I should up a little bit. If I don't feel safe with my baby, I don't want to be like Michael Jackson and have a military with me wherever I go. I want my child to be as normal as possible. That's probably the hardest thing: feeling judged and not being able to live and do things the normal way. For some reason, they have lightened up a lot since I have been speaking up about it, so maybe I should speak up more!
Some of the stories that have been written about you have been so mean. They are kind of beneath people. You would think that the editors of the magazine have children and would go there. It's really distasteful. You don't want to respond to trash, but it's America. You look at it and I think it's absurd, but the public of America doesn't know what really goes on and you feel weird because you have to defend yourself to these ignorant people.
Would you ever move back to Louisiana, where you grew up, with your family? I have no idea. I am very happy with where I am right now because it's safe and nice.
Do you want to go back to work after your second child? Yes, I have a lot of plans for next year and the years to come.
Do you feel older than your years? Definitely, I am always young at heart, but doing this so long, you are going to have to be wiser.
Have you played Sean your songs? Which does he like best? Yes, 'My Prerogative.'
What would people be surprised to know about you? I have obsessive-compulsive cleaning disorder!
What do you think is the biggest misconception about you? Everyone thinks they know you - that is the biggest thing. I'm not a big partier; I would much rather go out to dinner with my girlfriends, spend a night at home with my family or have my friends over for a barbecue.
What is the funniest story you ever read about yourself? There are too many to choose from, but the statue of me giving birth was pretty interesting.
When, you look back, what are you most proud of? My family.
What are your hopes and dreams for you life from here on out? I want the best life for my children and the utmost peace and happiness for me and my family.
Мне нравится Бритни спирс, как человек и как певица, не только ее последние песни, но и совсем первые... когда-то(год или два назад) я весьма критично к ней относилась и это мягко сказано
У них Уматурман и Звери - Рок
