No Plastic Surgery for Me, Says Demi

            You have to love a women who is not only talented and genuinely a nice, normal celb mom, but is also married to a guy 15 years her junior. Demi Moore sat down with The Guardian on October 7^th to talk about everything from her childhood to her own children. I was really drawn to her candid commentary about those plastic surgery rumors. You know which one's I'm talking about�??that Demi shelled out a million dollars for her �??comeback�?� bikini scene in Charlie's Angeles 3, that she has had face-lifts, Botox, collagen, even that she got her knees �??done.�?� What's the truth? Demi is 100% natural, she says, and from seeing her in person, I believe it. Her face actually makes expressions, unlike some Hollywood ladies who regularly get injected with the �??tox, and she even has some (gasp!) wrinkles.

            So how does Demi, at 44, look so fabulous? She told The Guardian, �??After GI Jane I was burnt out. I stopped work and I stopped exercising. I realized I needed to come from the inside and find a sense of peace. I realized being thin did not equal happiness.�?� After the hiatus from crazy diet and exercise, Demi said she found that the happier she was and the less she tried, the better she felt and looked. Instead of getting plastic surgery, Demi goes for regular facials and takes care of her body�??she no longer overworks it. As for those rumors, do they make Demi feel better about herself, you know, because people think she looks so good that she must have had work done? �??No,�?� she said, �??It's irritating. To fight it feels futile because I feel it perpetuates the myth. But really,�?� she continued �??the culmination for me was when there were multiple reports I had my knees done. When I read that, I thought: wow, should I have been worried about my knees?�?� The article reports that Demi invited the author of the piece to actually take a close look at her knees, and what was there? No scars, just a wrinkle.

Would you ever consider plastic surgery? What age do you think you would have it done?

Christina Reveals Shes Pregnant! (But not officially!)

The pop star and hubby Jordan Bratman went to baby boutique Bel Bambini on Saturday to create a wishlist for their forthcoming bundle of joy. Jordan's mom and sister accompanied the couple to help choose cute stuff for Christina's upcoming shower. Although Christina still hasn't officially announced she's pregnant, People.com reports that she allegedly told the store's staff that she is pregnant and also revealed the sex of her baby.

The Mommywood Weekend Report

Lots of news this morning! Christina Aguilera unofficially announced her pregnancy this weekend by creating a registry at one of L.A.'s hottest baby stores (more on that below). Britney reunited with her mom Lynne Spears, who allegedly came to L.A. to hold an intervention for her daughter. I'm crossing my fingers. P. Diddy has admitted that he has fathered a sixth child after being slapped with a $19 million lawsuit from the little girl's mother. The birth date of the child reveals that he did in fact cheat on ex-girlfriend Kim Porter. My advice? It involves keeping one's trousers zipped. Madden and six months pregnant Nicole Richie are reportedly going down under to Australia for a Good Charlotte concert, Perez Hilton writes on his blog. The buzz was that they planned to get hitched this week in L.A., but it's unlikely they'll marry without their families present. Two babies were born over the weekend: Balthazar Getty and wife welcome a baby girl and CBB reports that Sally Taylor and Dean Bragonier have welcomed a son -- the first grandchild of James Taylor and Carly Simon.

I Heart Jennifer Garner

My celeb mom crush of the week is Jennifer Garner. First of all, have you seen The Kingdom? Her fight scene is amazing--she can really hold her own surrounded by a bunch of tough guys. Plus, her Broadway debut is coming up in November, which makes Jen even more multi-talented�??first TV, then film, and now stage.

BUT what I really admire about Jen is how she takes pride in being a working mom�??and instead of sugarcoating how rewarding it can be, she recognizes how hard it can be. "I've loved every job I've ever had. I get a lot of my identity from being a woman who gets up and goes to work," she recently told the Globe and Mail. "I'd always assumed work would continue to be as important to me as it had been, but [now] I don't feel that way at all. Even coming to do [this interview this morning], leaving Violet in the high chair going, 'Mama, up, up!' I had to tear myself away." Having a hectic schedule is something all Hollywood moms face and it is refreshing to see one who isn't afraid to say how she really feels about it.

With her schedule how does she manage to be so fresh-face and gorgeous? Jen recently commented on how she is just like the rest of us, that it takes girdles and tummy-tuckers to fit into those tiny red-carpet gowns, but what she can't deny is her amazing skin. Her product of choice? Not plastic surgery, collagen, or Botox injections, but a botanical product by Liz Earle. It's called the "Superskin Moisturizer" for mature, dry skin, and it has a lot of great stuff in it: cranberry seed and rosehip oil, liquid paraffin waxes, naturally-sourced Omega 3, and antioxidants. Sounds a bit like a Jamba Juice for your face! You can purchase some for yourself at LizEarle.com for about $60 a bottle.
