Chance the Rapper is Taking Paternity Leave from His Tour After Welcoming 2nd Daughter

Chance the Rapper has postponed most of the dates on his upcoming tour, following the birth of his second daughter Marli.

Chance wrote on Instagram, “When Kensli was born, I went on tour 2 weeks later and missed some of the most important milestones in her life, but more importantly I was absent when her mother needed me the most. At this point as a husband and father of two I realize that I can’t make that mistake again. I need to be as helpful and available as possible to my wife in these early months of raising Kensli and Marli.”

Find his full statement below.

I thought it over for the past week and I’ve decided to push back my tour. This year has been one of the greatest of my life; Marriage, new baby, first album etc. But with it being so eventful it has also been very strenuous having to divide my time and energy between family and work. When Kensli was born, I went on tour 2 weeks later and missed some of the most important milestones in her life, but more importantly I was absent when her mother needed me the most. At this point as a husband and father of two I realize that I can’t make that mistake again. I need to be as helpful and available as possible to my wife in these early months of raising Kensli and Marli. I apologize because I know how many people were counting on seeing me soon, but I hope you’ll understand and forgive me in time. Tour kicks off Jan. 15th and you can still get tix or your refund if you are unavailable at chanceraps.com & a few of the shows are still being rescheduled as well so stay tuned. I love you guys AND LITERALLY CANT WAIT FOR U TO WITNESS THIS SHOW ???? SIDENOTE: 9/28 CHICAGO AT UNITED CENTER IS STILL ON AS WELL AS “LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL FEST” “IHEART MUSIC FEST” & “MIAMI BEACH POP FEST”! ❤️

Most of Chance’s tour in support of his debut The Big Day will now take place in 2020. He still has one show in Chicago this month (September 28), as well as festival sets in Las Vegas and Miami. Check out Chance’s updated itinerary below.

In a press release, Live Nation said, “We congratulate Chance on the birth of his daughter and support him while he takes time to be with his family. We are thrilled to welcome him back on the road in 2020.”

Watch Serena Williams’ US Open ‘This Mama Keeps Going’ Chase Ad

Twenty years ago, 23-Times Grand Slam Tennis Champ Serena Williams won her first US Open in 1999 and today longtime sponsor Chase Bank released a compelling ad on TV to commemorate that win as she continues on her post-motherhood journey to capture her 24th Title.

The last championship, she secured at the 2017 Australian Open while 7 weeks pregnant, 

Thus, in a full-circle presentation, Chase brilliantly weaves the narratives of her athletic achievement and motherhood into the story of a singular life in the campaign video produced by Australian ad vet David Droga’s firm Droga5.

The advertisement is a continuation of a campaign the bank launched last year called “This Mama Keeps Going” and this time, a short film opens with a visual of a sonogram with background vocals. A reporter congratulating Williams.  The video continues with shots of never-before-seen very personal videos and photos from Williams’ pregnancy and in the voiceover, she shares her excitement and struggles.

Interspersed is footage of her daughter, Alexis Olympia Ohanian, who she welcomed on September 1, 2017 with hubby, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, and as the TV spot focuses in on Williams’ tough sojourn in recovery after a difficult delivery when she suffered from a pulmonary embolism. (Which immediately reminds us of her vocal advocacy  for expectant mothers, especially women of color, after birth in the US.),

She didn’t win in today’s US Open Finals though she battled and defeated a lot of excellent players, losing to the younger version of herself, a stellar Canadian upstart, 19-year old Bianca Andreescu, the battle continues.

Through scenes of breastfeeding, pumping and calming a fussy toddler, Williams speaks about the joy of watching a daughter succeed. 

Only then does it become clear that her words are from a press conference after her very first Grand Slam win, 20 years ago at the U.S. Open in 1999.

How awesome!!

Celebrity Mom and Baby Accessory Series: Katie Holmes

Following up on my review of Celeb women who wear their babies and kids as accessories, let’s go back to an Old School, G!

Before there was such a thing as a North West, a Blue Ivy and a Harper Beckham, all eyes were on Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise‘s daughter Suri.

There was even a now defunct website called What Suri Wore that chronicles the styles of a celeb baby as seen through paparazzi photos.

As she got older, occasionally, her mom would coordinate their clothing.

The above collage represents a few times Katie wore Suri quite stylishly and well!

THE PREGNANCY STRUGGLE!! ? Why don’t women talk about the realllllness of pregnancy!? …Everyone just talks about how much “they love being pregnant” .. the “good stuff” but where’s the truth!? Don’t get me wrong being able to become pregnant in the first place is a blessing and this whole experience has been life changing but LETS GET REALLY REAL FOR JUST A MOMENT! The third trimester for me has been SUCH A CHALLENGE! I mean, if you’re lucky to still be able to even bend over to put on your shoes. Shaving THIS IS THE JOKE OF THE CENTURY! Can I lift my leg high enough to see all the areas I’m shaving.. (I’ll let you answer that one lol) Also, there should be an Olympic sport for getting up from a low piece of furniture while in your third trimester. The lower the piece of furniture, the less graceful you’ll be. At times I look as graceful as a turtle stuck on his back, desperately trying to roll over onto its legs, it’s a real sight to see…. Laughing at this one because everyone says “get your sleep now” .. WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE? ? Because they must not have encountered the endless need to pee, the weird pains from shifting positions, the kicks that come in the middle of the night or the crazy dreams that make you wake up in a panic. Oh yeah, and there’s nothing like getting winded doing menial things like walking up a flight of stairs or grabbing something that’s slightly out of reach. BUT all these aches, all the pains and all the inconveniences are worth it. The third trimester is just one hurdle before the real prize. Just need to suck it up and before you know it, there’s a sweet baby in your arms making you (almost) forget all the things you struggled with near the end.. ??? WHAT ARE SOME STRUGGLES YOU FACED IN YOUR LAST TRIMESTER! (Comment below-Be real)

Milla Jovovich Celebrated 10-Year Wedding Anniversary with Family in London

 

Look who is having a good pregnancy while on a 10-year wedding anniversary trip with her hubby and kids?

Resident Evil star Milla Jovovich paused to take snaps in front of the London Bridge late last month with her screenwriter hubby Paul W.S. Anderson and their two daughters, 11-year old Ever Gabo  and  4-year old Dashiel Edan. The mom-to-be of three is prepping for the arrival of her Rainbow baby following a miscarriage from her last pregnancy.

“HAPPY 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY TO MY AMAZING HUSBAND!!! Looking at who we are today compared to the kids we were when we first met … it’s so crazy to see how far we’ve come together!” the third-time mom-to-be captioned her post. “What a joy it’s been living life with you for so many years! What a whirlwind, what a journey, what a truly incredible and epic experience it’s been!”



When the Hellboy star announced that she was expecting again, Jovovich opened up about the fear she felt over the prospect of experiencing another loss.

 

“After I found out I was pregnant 13 weeks ago, I had a mixture of feelings ranging between complete joy and utter terror,” she former model captioned a selfie of herself revealing her bump on August 7. “Because of my age and losing the last pregnancy I didn’t want to get attached to this potential baby too quickly.”

She added: That was obviously not fun and the last few months have been my family and I living on pins and needles waiting for a slew of different test results to come in and spending most of our time in doctors offices. Thank goodness we’re in the clear AND we found out that we’ve been blessed with another girl!??? Anyway, wish me and my baby luck! I send you all a lot of love and I’ll keep you posted on my progression! Xoxo m❤️”

 

Looks like everything is A-OK this time around! Congrats and Good Luck!

Besides Kylie Jenner, Which Celeb Wears Their Baby as An Accessory Best/Most?

Mommy and Me fashion is not a new concept.

I think most of us can attest to noticing how our fave and fabulous Fashion Instagrammers manage to turn their brands into mommy brands seamlessly by featuring themselves in matching stylized outfits with their baby.

When celebrities who are most famous for one thing, like acting, being on a reality TV sow, modeling, do this, they are accused of wearing their baby as an accessory.

I think Victoria Beckham might have been the first referenced that way after she welcomed her last child and only daughter Harper in 2011, but certainly, I think we all can agree, that if we were to crown a champion celeb who appears best styled with a child, Kylie Jenner would be crowned the queen.

I’ve scrolled through my Insta feed and identified about 10 that look to use their babies as accessories the most/best. I’m not judging. Not saying it’s good or bad, but visually, they look so well coordinated and stylized, we cannot help but to take notice, and stare in awe!

In the next few days, I’ll share a few posts outlining the 10 celebrity women I think accessorize their personal brands with their baby the most/best.

Stay Tuned, but do drop me a note at jj (at) bellyitchblog.com if you have a candidate that should definitely be on this list.

 

Miranda Kerr’s Floral Maternity Looks are So On Brand

Australian model Miranda Kerr has been doing an excellent job repping her organic skincare brand Kora Cosmetics in her maternity style.

I was flipping through the Bellyitch Instagram followers and noticed the former Victoria Secret model wearing a lemon floral dress with white low heels and a white box handbag out and about. A few days later, she was in a short off the shoulder ruffle floral dress in the happiest of places: a sunflower patch!

Kerr and her husband, Snapchat founder Evan Spiegel are expecting their second child together, just 10 months after welcoming their first, son, Hart.

Kerr has a 8 1/2-year old son named Flynn with her ex husband, actor, Orlando Bloom. She infamously croons to the music of Bloom’s current flame, singer Katy Perry!
