Super Bowl Showdown: Gisele Bundchen versus the ATL Divas

February 4, 2017 by JJ

new-england-patriots

The big game is tomorrow evening. Who are you rooting for? The 4x Super Bowl champions New England Patriots or the Atlanta Falcons. I know for certain our Bellyitch Bumpwatch alum Gisele Bundchen will be Team Patriots. After all, she is married to its longtime famed quarterback Tom Brady.

I’m not for certain, but I will take a guess that the scores of other celebs we’ve “bumpwatched” who live in the Atlanta area will be cheering for their home team.

Phaedra Parks, Kandi Burruss, Eudoxie Agnan, Ciara, Keshia Knight-Pulliam, Rasheeda and Tamara Braxton-Herbert all hail from the ATL.

If you’re looking for inspiration gear, check out the curated collections below:

Gisele Bundchen’s Hubby Just Won Big Again, in Court this time

September 3, 2015 by JJ

 
The beautiful ones are always winning, aren’t they?

A judge today overturned a 4-game suspension that the NFL had levied on New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who is the doting hubby to one of our Bellyitch Bumpwatch alums. 

The judge ruled in the “deflategate” case that the league failed to follow certain procedural rules. 

The court also said the NFL’s president Rodger Goodell did not give Brady access to the file with the evidence the organization used to make its decision to suspend him based on allegations that he was in on a scheme to reduce the air in team footballs to give Brady and Patriots players a competitive edge  during games. 

The Patriots won the 2015 Super Bowl. 

So now statuesque and leggy Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen‘s hubby can play when the season starts in a few weeks.

Gisele Bundchen’s blog calls hospital births “Violent”

November 27, 2012 by JJ

Gisele Bundchen, with her son, Benjamin, when an infant, talked about her home birth experience in a 2010 Vogue spread.

Mom-to-be Gisele Bundchen
has proven why celebrities ought to be more mindful of posts that go out on
their personal websites bearing their brand and name.
One of the contributors to Bundchen’s blog, Equipe Übersite, posted
a controversial article
equating the hospital birthing process to violence
against women.
The post references physician Frederick
Leboyer
’s 1975 book “Birth Without
Violence
” which states that “childbirth surrounded by interventions and
‘violence’ is so ingrained in our society, that a humanized birth without unnecessary
interventions, at home, in water or squatting is seen as an alternative birth,
for hippies or something for Indians.”
It continues: “Most people are unaware what a birth without
violence is like and its benefits to mother, baby, family and society…Many
hospitals are like a mass production of babies, where routines are followed and
the baby must be born as soon as possible.”
However, the author fails to mention that one of the benefits of hospital
births is immediate access to emergency care should something go wrong.  Also, many women have delivered in hospitals
that have birthing rooms, and permit calm and gentle labor and delivery where
medical intervention is minimal or not used at all.
A rep for Bundchen told Fox News that even though she supports natural childbirth, “the strong words were used by Ms. Calvetti,” and she was expressing her own thoughts, not Bundchen’s. 
Certainly, Bundchen had a home birth after enduring 8 hours of labor. After delivering her first baby, she made controversial statements that sparked much outrage and debate.  In a 2010 Harper’s Bazaar article, she
declared that breastfeeding should be a “worldwide law” and it be law for moms to
nurse their newborns for “at least six months.”
Bundchen isn’t the only celebrity to have had a home birth. Ricki Lake, Demi Moore, Pamela Anderson,
Jennifer Connelly, Mayim Bialik, Thandi Newton, Alyson
Hannigan
, Evangeline Lilly, Maria Bello and Nelly Furtado all reportedly did too.
And home births are on the rise according to the latest statistics
issued by the Center for Disease Control
(CDC)
. Approximately, 1 out of every 140 US births take place at home.  From 2004 to 2009, the number of homebirths
increased 29 percent.
Indeed, there are some benefits to homebirths.
 “There is less likelihood of infection. Hospitals are filled
with viruses and bacteria, and very toxic cleaning agents. Also the environment
(of home) is calming for baby and mother. No cold rooms, no bright lights, no
loud noise – beside mom yelling – and the bonding is allowed to happen at
home,” Heather Lounsbury, founder of
the Los Angeles-based practice Live
Natural
Live Well told
FoxNews
. “The post on Gisele’s site is definitely raising good points.
Using the term ‘violent’ is going to make a lot of people mad, instead of
listening to the valid argument. I’m not sure a model should be giving medical
advice, but she does have a platform for raising awareness about the benefits
of home birth.”

Eco Friday: Gisele Bundchen’s Energy Saving Tips

November 24, 2012 by JJ

Did you know that supermodel and current Bellyitch Bumpwatch mom-to-be Gisele Bundchen has a blog that is dedicated to sharing posts and information for being friendly to Mother earth? Yup! Bundchen is the United Nations Environment Program‘s Goodwill ambassador for promoting a green economy!  In a recent posting, she and the bloggers that contribute to the site shared these tips for energy conservation: 
– Keep the fridge away from the stove, otherwise it will spend more energy to compensate for the heat transmitted by the stove.
– Iron clothes all at once, using the indicated temperature for each kind of fabric.
– Replace your incandescent bulbs for  fluorescent or LED, which are more efficient, durable and economical.
– Turn off the shower while soaping the body or washing your hair.
– When cooking, remove all the ingredients from the refrigerator at once.
– Turn off your computer at lunchtime.
– Avoid light bulbs during the day. To brig natural light to the house, open the windows and enjoy the daylight as much as possible.
Do it! Go Green!

Bump Watch: Gisele Bundchen gets help escaping paparazzi’s flashing lights

November 5, 2012 by JJ

While visiting Miami this weekend, after sunbathing on the beach yesterday, November 4, the papps followed supermodel Gisele Bundchen out to dinner with friends at the Prime One Twelve restaurant.
Only when she left, she couldn’t see her way to her car with all the paparazzi lights flashing in her face. A female and male companion had to guide her to her car. She shielded her face the entire time. Check more of the photos, which look a wee bit awkward, at the Daily Mail. 

She had on a nice casual muted color sweater over distressed white washed jeans. Bundchen and hubby New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady are expecting their 2nd child together. She is already mom to almost 3-year old Benjamin and stepson Jack.

Review: Unreal Candy & Gisele Bundchen loves it! (VIDEO)

November 4, 2012 by JJ

With a tagline like “Candy Unjunked,” you’ve got to admit your curiosity has to be piqued even a little. I thought junk was synonymous with candy. So with a little hesitance, I cashed in a coupon the guys at Unreal sent over to give their candy free of corn syrup,  hydrogenated oil,
artificial flavors, GMO’s or synthetic colors a shot!
I got the 1.7 ounce bar that comes with caramel, peanuts and nougat  ($1.29). It was not in the candy section of the store but with the energy and health food bars of my local CVS drug store here in Maryland. To my surprise, the candy tasted just like a typical Snicker bar and it came at the same price too. Only unlike a Snicker bar, the unreal bar is made with healthier ingredients and with same amount of calories, about 200 per bar. Unreal!! Right?!  You’d think using those better ingredients, it would cost more just like most foods you find in the organic food stores or section of the grocery.  
UNREAL launched this summer. The candies mimic M&M’s, Snickers and Reese’s, but without all the “junk”. Back then the makers touted that they were available at 18,000 stores nationwide, including at CVS, Walgreens and Kroger grocery stores. By now, there an additional 30,000 retailers may have been added.
“Unjunking candy is just the first step in
our mission to Unjunk the World™,” said Michael Bronner, founder
of UNREAL™ Brands
.  “Our goal is to educate people on the
benefits of removing junk from products, and to provide great-tasting
alternatives. With this video, we are thrilled to give consumers an inside look
at UNREAL.”  
The story goes that one of the co-founders launched the company after looking at the ingredients in his son’s Halloween candy bag. He threw it out and set off to create an alternative.  
And to make the pitch, the makers got our very own Bellyitch Bumpwatch babe, currently pregnant super model Gisele Bundchen and her hunky hubby NFL’s New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey, actor Matt Damon and R&B crooner John Legend to star in this cool little video re- introducing the product and how the candy is made and origins of the ingredients: organic palm kernel oil from a sustainable and organic plantation in Brazil; traceable cacao beans from farms in Ghana and Ecuador, for example.  The bars natural colors are said to come from foods like red from beets and blue from
purple cabbage, and not from synthetic dyes.
Interesting stuff even though the packaging looks like the typical stuff that occupies landfills! doh! I guess there has to be some trade off somewhere!
