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

Posted on September 3, 2015

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.

2015 VMA Awards Red Carpet & Show Roundup

Posted on August 31, 2015

Tonight was another celeb-studded musical event at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards at Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, California.

Several of our Bellyitch Bumpwatch alums graced the red carpet before the event, took the stage and were nominated for quite a few awards.

Mega star Beyonce Knowles Carter was a no show even though she was nominated for 5 awards for her “7/11” Video (Best Female, Pop, Editing, Choreography, Video of the Year). She won only one for Best Editing.

Jennifer Hudson couldn’t make it either despite being up for the Best Video with a social message award for her song, “I Still Love You.”

On the red carpet, model Lily Aldridge stunned in a black Alexandre Vauthier couture gown with a plunging neckline, Stuart Weitzman shoes, Jen Meyer Jewelry earrings, Anita Ko bracelets, and an Edie Parker clutch.

Britney Spears showed mucho cleavage in a showgirls-esque gold sequined number with cutouts in the tummy.

Kim Kardashian West covered her bump in a long sleeve draped military style dress.

Her sis Kourtney Kardashian was giving up the sexy in a hot pink jumpsuit, fresh off of winning our 2015 Posh Mom Icon award.

Their family’s arch nemeses Amber Rose and Blac Chyna came dressed in matching nude outfits with cartoon caricture lettering featuring all the insulting names that people have called the duo who are headed for an MTV reality TV show this fall.

The show wasn’t without its dramatic moments, of course, including some toxic exchanges between show host Miley Cyrus and Nicki Minaj who won the Best Rap Video Award for video for “Anaconda“. It was the same video Minaj suggested was deserving for being up for the Video of the Year Award but was slighted because she felt the women featured in the video weren’t thin. Taylor Swift assumed it was a slam against her given all the women in her Bad Blood video were pretty much rail thin and the two had a brief Twitter beef which reeled their fans in on it and was more or less squashed until Cyrus added her two cents during a promo appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Cyrus said Minaj was “not nice”. The rest is history and can be seen on Twitter but since we’re about promoting positivity by and among women, we’ll leave it at that.

Ciara showed off a new bob in a fringed black outfit and Law and Order‘s Mariska Hargitay made an appearance in all black while walking with the other members of “The #SwiftSquad” from Taylor Swift‘s “Video of the Year” winning video “Bad Blood.”

My fave look for tonight came from singer Tori Kelly who looked stunning in a a laced long sleeved top tucked in a cute pair of high waisted shorts with a gold clutch and black bowed pumps, with tussled hair to complete the look. Her bronze sheer makeup was flawless. Yassss!

Try this Molly Simms Supermodel Quick Weight Loss Secret

Posted on August 22, 2015

There are different ways to get your baby in shape after having a baby.

Once the doctor gives the okay, many new moms take to running, swimming, heading to the gym and doing exercise DVDs to get back in shape. While doing it, some choose to wear body shapers to help ease them back to pre-pregnancy shape and help contour their waist size. Others swear by breastfeeding and nothing more.

And still others swear by changing their diet and reverting to clean eating: eating less processed foods, consuming more organic and/or gluten free foods and fatty and reducing o

ther complex carbohydrates.

To kickstart a new change in habit or to get a little boost, some opt for cleanses and quick fasts.

Our Bellyitch bumpwatch alum Molly Sims recently shared a personal recipe for a soup cleanse that her personal chef Gavan Murphy conjured up for her.

It is not just any soup. The soup is full of vegan ingredients. The former super model says she sips on a full serving about six times a day while detoxing.

“Fasts are believed to get the junk stuck in the body (bad bacteria, mucus, toxins) out of there!” Sims declares on her website. “Fasting and detoxing really is all about improving your health so listen to your body. Yes, you lose water weight but it also gets you started on the right track. So when you fall off, it’s an easy way to get back on board.”

The blogger and author of The Everyday Supermodel: My Beauty, Fashion, and Wellness Secrets Made Simple

advises those who try it to eat more until satisfied.

The weight should peel off because the soup is low in calories and a vegan cleanse avoids high fat ingredients like cream and dairy.

See Sims’ recipe for her Chilled Zucchini Soup on her website HERE!

World Breastfeeding Week: Hilara Baldwin shares Tender Moment

Posted on August 7, 2015

Another World Breastfeeding Week is drawing to a close and as committed and longtime supporters of breastfeeding, we would remiss, as a blog community, if we didn’t dedicate a few posts to celebrate nature’s nourishment source for new life. Better late than never, right?

And to start, we are shouting out celebrity fitness pro and our two-time Bellyitch Bumpwatch alum Hilaria Baldwin for sharing a tender nursing moment with her new son to her followers on Instagram yesterday.

The yoga fanatic, who is married to veteran actor Alec Baldwin, captioned this sweet photo:

Rafa’s favorite spot ?. There is no one right way to feed our babies, but this week marks #nationalbreastfeedingweek and I would like to extend my support to mothers who have taken this path ?. In the end, regardless of our methods, #AllMommiesUnite and whatever way we love and nurture our children is beautiful, perfect and inspiring ❤️

As we’ve always advocated, it is important for influential people in the public eye to encourage new mothers, who do not face too many physical or psychological impediments or difficulty, to breastfeed and to do it as long as possible. What better way than to open up with their own special moments with their little ones. Very nice!

Earlier this week, we mentioned seeing Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi on the Coco and Ice talk show and was also heartwarmed to hear that she is still nursing her almost one year old daughter Giovanna Marie LaValle! sweet!

TREND: Florals by Dolce & Gabbana, GET THE LOOK

Posted on August 6, 2015

Florals are great to wear anytime but especially in the Spring and Summer months.

We spotted some of our diva-level Bellyitch Bumpwatch alums recently sporting the feminine pattern in sophisticated dresses and billowy peasant tops.

Jennifer Lopez wore a black and silver floral Dolce & Gabbana cap sleeve mini floral print dress with a matching D&G Sicily mini printed leather shoulder bag and white pumps at a recent event.

Beyonce, who is on active Bumpwatch, was seen recently in a billowy Lucy Paris floral peasant top with black trouser shorts and sandals. Late last month, the singer-songstress headed out in a Dolce & Gabbana knee-length dress that she accessorized with black Ray Ban sunglasses, a Stuart Weitzman Nudist Ankle Strap sandal and a nude Dannijo Lypton Chain detail cross body bag.

Coco Announces on her New Talk Show She is 5 months Preggers with Baby Girl Chanel

Posted on August 3, 2015

Ice and Coco debuted today and during it, the blonde bombshell wife of gansta rapper turned actor ICE-T (Law & Order) revealed that she is 21 weeks pregnant (over 5 months).

The reality show couple of the now-defunct ICE loves Coco also shared that they are expecting a little girl who they have decided to name Chanel.

The premiere of the new daily talk show also featured a couple of our Bellyitch Bumpwatch alums.

Tamar Braxton-Herbert and her husband Vince Herbert stopped by as did Nicole “Snooki’ Pollizzi who talked about how motherhood changed her old partying ways.

❤️This cute lil ??? mama @snookinic ALWAYS a good time?

Who can believe this woman is 5 months preggers!?! Wow!

I am happy for them but a little peeved to hear Coco sort of dismiss the salient advice OB/GYNs and other medial and fertility specialists give to women who are advancing in age.

Cocoa said, “a lot of people ask what took us so long [to conceive]” and it’s because I wanted to wait, she said, mentioning that she wanted her companies to be successful and saw herself being pregnant at age 35. That was the magic number and she wanted to have a baby by then.

“People put things in your ear,” Coco said about all the warning society gives to women of child-bearing age.

“I’ve been on the pill for 17 years and they scare you, they told me I should freeze my eggs,” she added. “I called my gynecologists, she said ‘get off the pill and it would take a year for your body to regulate’… and it took a month and a half.”

ICE jumped in with his machismo humor to say, that he could “make a baby like a brick wall.”

“I’m so blessed,” she concluded. “Baby, I’m so blessed”

Congrats to them but the reality is that not so many women are fortunate. Fertility struggles are real and people put things in your ear on the odd case that you aren’t among the fortunate ones like Coco and Ice who could easily conceive.

Finally, those women not being able to conceive doesn’t mean they are less “blessed.”

Good for them both! Congrats!
