How Christina Aguilera is Prepping for Body After Baby
![]() |
Mommywood hears that singer Christina Aguilera, due with her first baby early next year, has already started prepping to get back her pre-pregnancy body. She recently requested items from Mama Mio: a maternity product line which includes everything she needs to restore her glowing looks, from oils, to lotions, to body wash for tummies, breasts, and stretch marks. |
| And Christina isn't the only one using Mama Mio, - Milla Jovovich, who gave birth earlier this month to her daughter, Ever, just requested several yummy potions from the line and Christy Turlington named Mama Mio as her "pregnancy pick" before giving birth to her son Fin just two years ago. (She also has a daughter, Grace, who is four.) |
The Mama Mio line is designed with one thing in mind: increasing skin elasticity. The secret ingredient? Essential Fatty Acid-rich oils (EFAs), which help maintain the suppleness and elasticity of skin. Not only does the product line look good on paper, but it's founders are equally credible. Mama Mio was created by three mothers, who collectively have 40 years experience in the beauty industry and, more importantly, a total of 62 years experience in motherhood, with seven
pregnancies between them!

Checking in with The Spice Girls
Mel B. aka Scary Spice may have been robbed of the "Dancing with the Stars" crown last night on the show's season finale, but there's a whole bunch of fun news to report from Spice World to make up for the upset.
![]() |
The fab five recently got a surprise visit from some A-list friends. According to the Spice Girls' Web site, "Tom [Cruise] and Katie [Holmes] enjoyed an impromptu audience with the girls and were treated to an exclusive performance, while Suri danced along to the music." |
In addition to little Suri, The Spice Girls' own children have been hanging out on the set and during rehearsals. Just the other day, Victoria's son Cruz grabbed Sporty Spice Melanie C's hoodie during rehearsal so he could try it on and Geri's little girl, Bluebell, enjoys picking up a microphone while on set to belt a few out just like her mama.
The Girls have been blogging about their rehearsals and music video shoots on their website for weeks, and Ginger Spice Geri said that the whole reunion has been magical. "We're working hard and it's like we've never been apart -- it's been the most wonderful experience being back in Spice World," she said.
And they have more to be excited about than their reunion tour kicking off next week. The Spice Girls Greatest Hits CD went platinum in less than two weeks! You can pick up your copy at any Victoria's Secret store or purchase online at www.victoriassecret.com.
The Spice Girl's Los Angeles performance is just one week away, and I'm crossing my fingers that I win that pair of tickets I am bidding on through eBay. If you can't make it to one of their shows, be sure to check out the Spice Girls' performances during the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which airs on CBS, at 10 pm, on Tuesday December 4th.

Long Hair for Boys: A Celebumom Do or Don’t?
For rock stars, hippies, and Rastafarians man-mane is completely acceptable, but what do you think about celebumoms' little guys who sport long hair?

Kate Hudson's son Ryder, 3, is known for his surfer-boy long locks, which often leads him to be mistaken for a girl in photos. Kate has said on numerous occasions that Ryder insists on keeping his hair long. One recent photo of Ryder and Kate sparked a People magazine reader to write a letter, saying "I'm sure he would look absolutely adorable if he looked like a little boy instead of a little girl." This seemed a bit harsh to me, he's just a kid! |

Celine Dion told People that her son Rene-Charles, 6, also doesn't want to part with his long hair. In an interview with her in this week's issue, the singer says, "Everyone asks me why I don't cut it. He doesn't want to!" Celine¹s hubby Rene, says it's actually Celine that doesn't want to chop off Rene-Charles' lengthy locks. Hmmm... |
What do you think? Should young kids have a say in their hair-styles? Does it matter if boys who have long hair look like girls or that little girls with short hair are mistaken for boys? Tell us on the Mommywood Message Boards...
