3 December 2020 Vin Diesel My mom used to say that I became a fighter and a scrapper and a tough guy to protect who I am at my core.
3 December 2020 Queen Latifah I think I’d be a great mom, honestly. I don’t think I’ll have any problem giving them all the love in the world. Discipline will be the hard part.
3 December 2020 Kenny Rogers My mom loved to sing – and I’ll go on record and say she was the worst singer ever. I’d get up and move away from her!
3 December 2020 Edie Brickell Becoming a mom made me more contentious about expressing my true taste.
3 December 2020 Rachael Leigh Cook But my mother and father were married when my mom was 20 and my dad was 24.
3 December 2020 Greta Gerwig I was serious about ballet for a long time, but my mom got me into tap and jazz and modern and hip-hop, and I was one of those over-lessoned children.
3 December 2020 Emma Roberts I grew up with just my mom. She and I were like best friends. She’s a very independent woman and I admire that about her. In my life, I’ve tried to be like that. To be okay with being on my own and being independent.
3 December 2020 Chris Brown I didn’t understand that I could sing until I was like 11 or 12. My mom heard me singing around the house and she said, What are you doing? You really can sing! So then I started going to school and singing to the girls.
3 December 2020 Meg Cabot My original inspiration was my mom: a few years after the death of my dad, she started dating one my teachers!
3 December 2020 Roseanne Barr A guy is a lump like a doughnut. So, first you gotta get rid of all the stuff his mom did to him. And then you gotta get rid of all that macho crap that they pick up from beer commercials. And then there’s my personal favorite, the male ego.
3 December 2020 George Thorogood I’m talking like 10, 12 years old. Either junior brings Mom and Pop or Mom and Pop bring the kids. I’m talking young here, not a college drinking crowd.
3 December 2020 Steve Case My father still is a lawyer, and my mom was a teacher and then later a career counselor.
3 December 2020 Harry Reid I was born and raised in the high desert of Nevada in a tiny town called Searchlight. My dad was a hard rock miner. My mom took in wash. I grew up around people of strong values – even if they rarely talked about them.
3 December 2020 Mariska Hargitay I think because I became a mom later in life, everything in life means more.
3 December 2020 Liza Minnelli He was doing – Ray was designing the clothes for my mom’s show from California. And one of the first appearances I ever made on television was on my mother’s show and Ray and Bob did the clothes for that. It has been a long time.
3 December 2020 Alison Sweeney Sunscreen is my number 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 tip. I’m a fanatic, partially because I live in L.A. and have fair skin and freckles, and partially because of my kids. My mom always made me wear sunscreen and I’m trying to be that mom for them.
3 December 2020 Monica Lewinsky I was worried about my mom more than I was worried about the president. And then I was worried about the president, and then I was worried about myself.
3 December 2020 Dennis Miller I didn’t know my Dad – he moved out early. And my mom’s politics were kind of hardscrabble. She didn’t think about Democrats or Republicans. She thought about who made sense. I’ve been both in my life.
3 December 2020 Sarah Polley My mom died of cancer when I was really young. I’m not someone who tries to work out their own stuff with a role, but I think that happened despite my best efforts to keep myself separate from it.
3 December 2020 Lauryn Hill That strong mother doesn’t tell her cub, Son, stay weak so the wolves can get you. She says, Toughen up, this is reality we are living in.
3 December 2020 Chantal Kreviazuk Of course, I would be depressed sometimes, and my Mom would be worried about me because I would just sleep to escape. Cause I was so scared of being a musician or artist, or whatever you want to call it.
