Not gonna lie, if when you hear the phrase women supporting women, you say, why. Yeah, this podcast isn't meant for you. So, uh, disrespectfully, fuck off. Let's get this podcast started. Welcome back to Not Gonna Lie, Wave Original, brought to you by Amazon Pets. Amazon Pet Days are back. I'm your host, Kylie Kelsey. I may or may not have seen a UFO recently.

I'm being dead serious. I don't want to elaborate because I'm still a little confused. about it and not 100% sure that people aren't yank in my chain. I just played a solid cat prank on my husband. Did I use AI to create a photo of our living room with a cat on the back of the couch? Yes, I did. Do I use AI for anything else? No, that was it. That's all I needed it for. And this past week, I was caught by the paparazzi. What was I doing? Oh, yes. specifically the Galesburg, Illinois paparazzi. A real ruthless group.

There I am. That's me. That's me and Victor and Judy. Come for pancakes. No. Not yet. You should go. No.

We to watch the FAAFO. But we went to Judy's Cafe. And luckily, we took a camera crew. That Fafo. episode doesn't come out for another two months. So you're going to have to be patient. What I will say is, if you are in the area, the Berry Medley Pancakes. Nope, I'm not going to tell you any details. But my Instagram story was explanation enough. And for our audio listeners, I was part of the Clean Plate Club. We also shot another FAFO literally yesterday. You're going to see that one in two weeks. Did I

tease that one on my story too? Maybe. Is Queen Emma happy about it? No. I will give you a hint, though, if you didn't see my Instagram story. It's the goat of women's golf. Well, now that we've addressed that, coming up on today's episode, I had some business being at the Eagles Autism Challenge where not only did we raise a record amount of money, we also received the greatest fan gift ever. I'm going to respond to a real one question about what I'm do if my girls ever dated someone from Dallas. What? And then we've got a stacked doomscroll. After that, I got to sit down with an absolute icon to talk about her Sports Illustrated swimsuit cover, 2000s fashion, and of course, what dreams are made of. That's right, it's Hillary Duff.

But before we get into any of that, let's start with a place Kylie has no business being. This week, I had no business being on stage at the Webby Awards, accepting the podcast of the year, Award for NGL. Let me explain. Let's do the Spark Notes version of this. First of all, yes, I do have a hair tie on my wrist. Did I remember to take it off before the red carpet? Absolutely not. Am I wearing open-toed shoes? Do not zoom in on the dogs. Yes, I am. Should I have been? No, I shouldn't have been. But those are the shoes I brought and I didn't know what I was wearing when I left the house that morning. The hair, I did it. It was fine from me. the front. Did it look good from the back? We may never know because I made out a point to not turn

my back to anyone. And would I ever wear this outfit again as long as I'm not near my children? Why, you might ask? Because it's an ivory suit, people. I would get within a mile of my children and somehow end up with ketchup on the sleeve. I said yes to accepting this award because it was podcast of the year, meaning that it was not about me the host. It was about the podcast as a whole. And I said this on another episode, and I mean it wholeheartedly, and I want this to be abundantly clear. The team that we have working on NGL is outstanding. So this award was an opportunity to acknowledge the team as a whole. Queen Emma has the clip here of my friend and former NGL guest, Gerard Carmichael, presenting me the

My problem with the word authenticity is that even liars can say it. Like anyone can use the word and not mean it or not live up to it. Kylie, from the moment that I met you, I remember kind of saying hi, like in an octave higher than my natural speaking voice, just like, hey, and everything about your eyes and your presence and your voice said, you don't have to do this. and I was a guest on Not Gonna Lie, her podcast. Yes. And I really, I felt that, you know, just being with you, being around you, listening to you,

you're absolutely incredible. You made me feel like family, which is so, you know, you have, I'll say, like, the wit of a comic, the passion of an athlete. and the authenticity of a mother. And it's with great pleasure that I get to present the award for Podcast of the Year to Kylie Kelsey for Not Gonna Lie. He was way too kind in his explanation and his presentation of the award. I absolutely love getting to run into Drodd.

He really is like a warm light. It's lovely. The Webbies ask that you make a five-word speech. That's the move for the Webbies. My five words were women supporting women. Go birds. We also considered fuck around and find out. You know, I love that.

The reason I didn't go with fuck around and find out was because we were actually, I was the first person to give a speech. And I was like, do we? Do we do the shot out of a cannon thing? No. Let's make it. Let's make it count. Let's say meaningful shit. And also, Queen Emma couldn't be with us there that night. And she had mentioned earlier in the day that she was thinking about it for a while and that she thought women supporting women and Goberts was a great pairing. So a little nod to Queen Emma, you know? The response to that being my speech has been overwhelmingly positive because, duh, there's always a couple haters, you know.

Some people just really enjoy being negative nancies. At the end of the day, I know that I'm not spouting off hateful bullshit. So I truly want to make sure that women feel supported and who else is going to support us? But women, also great men, but women, come on. I won't be getting on any of the red carpet sentence. Next, I feel like we might as well check out the places Kylie has some business being brought to you this week by Amazon Pets. Check out deals on Pet Essentials. You'll love this week during Amazon Pet Days like these Blue Buffalo training treats.

The deal event ends tomorrow, so don't miss out. Places, Kylie, has some business being, well, this weekend, I definitely had some business attending the Eagles Autism Challenge. We raised over $16 million. That's insane. The cool thing about the $16 million, and I always love to emphasize this, is that all of that $16 million. So the $16 million is fundraised, donated dollars. Every dollar donated to the Eagles Autism Foundation goes directly back into the autism community through research and programs. I also got an opportunity to meet Blippy at the Eagles Autism Challenge.

Look at us. I got to meet Blippy. Let me tell you, Blippy was lovely. Now, that's coming from someone who is. on this very show stated that we are not a Blippy household. Am I second guessing myself? Yes, I am. Because Blippy was wonderful.

And it was so cool that Blippy came. He not only participated, but he also performed. Did you know Bli Bli Bli Bia has song? Something about an excavator. I don't know. Yeah. A lot of you guys know, I think. The girls met Blippy, which was funny to me because why it was hard pressed about meeting him.

And I was like, girl, we don't even watch him. What's your deal? But she met him. They were all very excited to speak to him. And he was very nice. The girls also got to run into Swoop. The crazy part, nobody cried. There wasn't a single tear shed about Swoop. And I looked at Swoop and I said, said swoop. Nobody's yelling or crying. That's growth. I also met a real one who gave me perhaps the best fan gift ever. Queen Emma, can you play this clip? Please. That's Billy. That's my friend Billy. I knew the minute I saw a rainbow on that headband, look at this headband. Guys, it had lights. You can hear me asking someone if they read yet. There was a small girl standing in front of me who was staring at me while I was putting on my light up, suck my ass headband. And I just wanted to make sure that she couldn't read it. So I confirmed, dad nodded. She could not read my headband.

This is Lily. Lily made me this headband. It was the best fan gift that I have received. I think that it is, it speaks for itself. Lily understood the assignment. She understood what would speak to my soul. And it was a headband that lights up that says suck my ass. That's it for places Kylie has some business being brought to you by Amazon Pets. I'll be right back. As a new German shepherd puppy parent, there was a lot that needed to get done before Freddie came home and a lot that needed to be bought after two. There were some food needs, definitely some bed needs, and toys. Because Patty's not really a toy doll. And also, even if she was, a puppy deserves their own.

And our Real One Comment of the Week is actually a question. It says, Kylie, what would you do if any of your girls ever dated somebody from Dallas or Texas,

general. I'm going to be honest, this thought has not crossed my mind. Why? I'm hoping that I've raised my children better than that. I'm sure there are people from Dallas, Texas who are not Dallas fans. So I would consider that a possibility. I don't have a problem with, I don't necessarily have a problem with Dallas the place, although I don't plan on ever visiting. I genuinely cannot wrap my head around the idea of one of our children bringing home a significant other and saying, well, they're a Cowboys fan. Nope, can't do it. Queen Emma would also like to know who's going to have a bigger problem with this, Jason or me. It's me. Jason will be the person that's like, you know what? He seems like a good guy.

They seem like a great person. I don't give a fuck. I'm hopeful that we have raised our children with an appropriate degree of disdain for the Dallas Cowboys. That's it for Real One Comment. Now let's get to Doomscroll the week brought to you by DoorDash.

First up, this little girl shared the address for a birthday party with her mom, and frankly, I'm not sure what's so confusing about this perfect invite. So this is the address to your friend's birthday party? For audio listeners, it is. a Post-it note with a line and a house drawn on a hill. That is amazing. We also got a part two because she was able to track down the phone number. Thank goodness. So we got the time of the party, right? Uh-huh. What time is it at?

50. And then, of course. Got the phone number. Two, zero. Hmm. Okay. Perfect. How do we break it to mom that I'm pretty sure it's an imaginary friend? The number of times that my girls have been hell-bent on the fact that they are correct, specifically Wyatt recently was trying to tell me that there was something happening at her school

and that I needed to be there by 50 o'clock, which apparently is the theme. Was it 50 or 15? Does it really matter? I remember saying to her, are you sure that it's 15? I said, I think that it is 930. And she said, no, mom, I know it's 15 o'clock. How am I supposed to argue with that? When it comes to mixing up numbers, Wyatt is just starting, she can sound out words now. And it's exciting and terrifying at the same thing. time because I have a lot of things that, I mean, I have, I'm looking across the room at a pillow right now in this office. Now, this office is not a place that kids frequent, but I have a pillow that I'm looking at that says, what? And I cannot stress this enough. The fuck. That's what the pillow says. The numbers don't seem to be improving. For a long time, Jason's jersey number was 60 number two. That's it. And there was no, I would be like, oh, dad's, what number is that? 60 number two. Okay. I love this. And I love

the confidence from the backseat when the mom's like, this is her number. And she's like, yeah. What time is the party? 50. Yeah, it is. Hell yeah. Next up, the text on the screen says, I was feeling sick and taking a nap outside when my daughter came to check on me. But really, she grabbed my phone and started vlogging. This is Mommy, and she's having a good time. She's just having a little nap on there outside, and it's a good day. It's really warm. There's a willow, and there's lots of lanternbug.

and she's a good girl and she likes to climb trees but he's sick and he has her water in case if she gets thirsty first of all the fact that you get to have that video forever and ever and hear her little voice describing everything going on is perfect don't you ever let that video go anywhere because that's the kind of thing that you'll listen to in five years and be like, why doesn't your voice sound like a little baby anymore? My favorite part of this video is when she calls her mom a good girl. I love that so much. I don't know if it's a dog thing or the fact that our entire house is girls. Typically, some of our girls' first words have been good girl.

So I just have this sweet spot for a little kid going, she's a good girl. I do have quite a few videos on my phone where the girls have tried to vlog or narrate what is going on. It typically involves them recording one of their sisters and it usually takes a turn. At first, it's really nice. And then it farts poop diarrhea. The girls aren't actually allowed to play with phones. That's one of the rules in our house is that. that kids do not have phones.

So it happens, the best part is, is that the vlogged, air quotes, vlogged videos that I have on my phone are often in a whisper. Or end with me saying, give me my phone back, please. I'd like my phone back, please. Elliot Ray, I need my phone back, please. That's how almost every single one ends. And that does it for Zoom Scroll the week,

Insurance Company and affiliates, Northbrook, Illinois. She's the multi-platinum global superstar who just put out her new album, Luck or Something. She's also given us the all-time classics, come clean, what dreams are made of, and so yesterday. She's about to go on a world tour for the first time in 18 years. She's also a fellow mom of four. And now she's not going to lie, Hillary Duff, welcome to the show. Hi, how are you?

I am so excited to talk to you. I have to get it out of the way first. The girls and I just watched the movie. movie. The movie. Period. We have not stopped singing, this is what dreams are made of. And they enjoy and I, it's my six and my five year old who are really into it. My three year old stands on the things in the living room and pretends that she's on stage. Yeah. But still slaps. Love, love. You're like, I can also enjoy this. My, my, um, good. My best friend's daughter is, she's three.

And she is like, they live in New York. And she just at the public playground is just screaming at the top of her lungs, like, influencing all of these children. She's like, this is the way. Come this way. Let me introduce you to a little. Yeah. It's like amazing. But I also have plenty of kids at home that also enjoy and love watching that.

But I'm like, can I escape anywhere? Can I escape anywhere? Do your own children. have they seen this? Do they watch it? Yeah. Yeah. My husband thought it was really funny to introduce them. And I was like, thank you. Do you think it's funny? Yeah. I mean, you know, now I'm in cycle with like my record and my tour and I've been singing it for the first time ever, really. And so I'm having fun. But, you know, I also, you know, I also feel like slightly embarrassed that my children like

sing my teenage hood songs. I can only imagine. I mean, it's such a good song, though, honestly. It's so good. How do your kids feel about the new songs? They love the new songs. Yeah, they love the new album. They, I feel like they're the best A&R crew around.

They know their favorites. They request often. And, you know, I've had to listen to it so much, obviously, mixing the record and and and, you know, just from start to finish, like, I feel like they've been involved in it. And that feels really special. I'm grateful that they don't really care about lyrics because I don't want to have to answer all those questions. I thought the lyrics and question were outstanding and very well done. Thank you so much.

We'll come back to the music, but because right now I got to talk to you about this Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover. Yes. Well done. Thank you. First of all, what was your reaction to hearing that you got the cover? I was driving to pick my kids up from school. And my first reaction wasn't like, oh, my God, yes, I'll do it.

My first reaction was like, shit, I thought it'd get in like riproar in shape. You know, like, that is, that was my first. And I'm also like, I'm not a model. Like, I'm five, too. I'm, you know, I've had four kids. Like, it scared me. These photos suggest otherwise, Hillary. They seriously do.

Well, thank you so much. And honestly, it was a huge, like, honor and challenge and all the things I like. So, you know, when I heard that they are like, it's mostly like female ran over there now. Like all it's, it, the photographer was like who I wanted. Um, the editor in chief is like incredible. It got to be my whole styling team, my hair and makeup. Like, they wanted me to feel my best. And I was like, I will do this.

This is fun. I flew to Turks and Kekos for a day the night of the Super Bowl and was in South Kekos in this, like, beautiful resort. And we shot. And then I was like out of there for my shows in Vegas. So it was kind of like this whirlwind thing where you're like, we're in a sandbar in the middle of the ocean for like a blink of time. And, you know, I did. I felt like so, I felt really free doing that. I mean, I have also been naked on the cover of a magazine. So that was a little more scary. But I had the time. And I think that, you know, at this stage of my life, I feel really proud of myself. And to

be asked to be like on the swimsuit edition was a big deal. I can't explain to you. how cool it is to see a fellow mother of four on the cover of a magazine like this, because it is like this like vision of beauty and sort of like this sexy like I have it. And I'm not going to say still have it because I think like you have it no matter what as long as you feel like you have it. Yeah. It is so special to see someone who has four kids because they think that we talk about it all the time on the show about like the term bounce back and how it's just not right because once you become a mom it's different right like your body did what it did it's not going to be exactly the same way that it was ever again yeah and so it i find it to be unbelievably

empowering just to see that you not only said yes to this but look phenomenal you nailed this you nailed it so much it was great to you know have conversations with conversations with them and be like, hey, I'm not going to wear a bikini. Like, I have had four kids. This is, I feel comfortable showing this. I feel comfortable showing this. I don't feel comfortable showing this. And they're like, got it, got it, got it. You know, and like that there's so much power in that. Like, I am so proud of my body. Obviously, you know, I've worked really hard. But my body's worked really hard for me and produced an entire family, you know, that I'm so, like, so grateful for it. That's where like, that's everything to me. But to, you know, show other women and to, you know, to hear, even to go back to the phrase, like, oh, you still got it. Like, it's crazy how many people come up to me and they're like, oh, my God, values look so good. And I'm like, I'm not even 40. Like, I know you've known me forever, but like, I'm 38. And like, a lot of people haven't even had their first kid yet.

Yeah. You know? Yes, absolutely. Over your four pregnancies, has your idea of body image and body confidence. confidence changed? It's never been easy. No pregnancy. Not a single one of my pregnancies have I ever just been like,

oh my God, I love this. Like, I don't love it. I love the outcome of it. And of course there's a means to an end. Right? Yes, it's a means to an end. Of course there's sweet, you know,

things that come out, sweet memories attached to it, a lot of power that's attached to it. Like, there's growth and, you know, all of that stuff. stuff. I love that that ride. Hate being pregnant. Hate havesing something in my body. Like, it's, it's, it's, it's crazy. And then, you know, kind of like what you're left with afterwards and how long that whole thing takes and the pressure on you and the, da, da, the, da, that. Like, it's all so consuming. And then, of course, like, I've done it four times. So,

like, it's all worth it. But I think each time I've been pregnant and like kind of gotten to the other side. And I don't mean that in a negative way, but just like where you're like, feel like a person again and your clothes start to fit and all of that. You're like, oh, I recognize that thing. And that's happening to me right now. And I'm just like a little more, there's a little bit more ease around those question marks of the feelings that come along with like pregnancy or the aftermath. I still think one of the hardest things that I've done in my life is try to get dressed postpartum. When you have somewhere to the first time you have somewhere to go. the first time you have something to get dressed for.

Yeah. And all of a sudden you like go to slip on like maybe you're like jeans. So you're like, nah, these girls, they got my back. And all of a sudden you're like, why won't this button close? Yeah. And you. It's so hard. It's so hard.

And I think that. And also you're used to having like a giant belly. So once that giant belly is down, but like the rest of you isn't down, you're like. Yes. proportions aren't after you're like hey guys that sucks hey belly can you just want to tell you a man could never deal with this not one day ever no well the the hard part i truly think is that you end up like as women and i don't know how your experience was before you had children but i think we fight the good fight to feel good about ourselves to not compare ourselves to others to try and not focus on the numbers on

the scale or to try and focus on the number on the clothing that we're buying or wearing. And so to then end up in like, okay, I'm a woman and I'm in this situation and now I feel decent about myself and I'm not worried about the number in my pants. And then all of a sudden you get pregnant and you're like, this body is not my body. This body belongs to this being inside of me. And I do think that having four your second is easier because you're like, oh, I know that I'm going to do this, this and this. Yeah. And your third is easier because you're like, I did this twice. And then how was the fourth for you? I'm like, I could do, I feel like I could do it with my eyes close. I'm like, I could map it out exactly. Yeah. Yeah. I think that for me, by the, by my third

trimester of my fourth, I was in my body for the first time of being pregnant was like in a lot of pain. I think my body was like, we don't need to do this again. Like I can't keep up with three kids and be as like active and running around with them and climbing up in the top bunk and down and you know on my feet all day and like I just my body was like we're we're done with this this is like hey can you sit down yeah yeah sit down uh-huh now being you said you're five two yeah I'm almost five three actually the doctor was like you know you're almost five three and I was like that is such a win to know at this age in life I pulled everyone my whole life I'd five two I might as well be 5.3. Now, how did you carry your pregnancies? Like, were you, did your belly just

go, like, straight out? Were you basically, like, all belly because there's nowhere else to go? Because I used to explain to people that, like, people would, I'd be very, I'm 511. I would be very, like, pretty far long. And people would be like, oh, my gosh, you don't even look pregnant. I'm like, do you know how much torso I have to hide it? Right. Like, there's, so there's no, there's no, there's no hiding. There's no hiding in this in this torso so i asked because my mom is five two oh how is that possible is your dad a giant he's six one nine okay i yeah my mom talks about how she couldn't touch her belly button when she was pregnant with me because her belly was so big yeah the poor girl i know i apologize frequently um i could touch my belly button but i did i got quite large every pregnancy i forget

There was one where I kind of held it together for a while, but then I didn't. I have like really big bellies. I don't carry differently every single pregnancy. You did? Every single pregnancy. My second pregnancy, I worked out. I was like a new human being. I was like, this is the best thing ever.

My third, you could not have pried my ass off the couch with a curl bar. Really? I couldn't do it. I don't know what it was. I felt the laziest that I've ever felt in my life. Wow. I worked out with every person. pregnancy. I feel like that didn't, even though I worked out, I feel like it didn't change,

like how much weight I gained. Like, it was just, it was just a nice thing I did for my body to work out in my brain. Yes, and it was inevitable. It was, we're supposed to carry our babies the way we carry them and that's that. Yeah. Did the donuts help me? Probably not. But she wanted them. Who was I to stop her? What is your, what do you have? All girls. Oh my God, you have all girls. Yes. Well, I mean, we're close. You have three girls, one boy. Yeah. Yeah. Oh my God. You have all. Did you ever cry when you found out, like, what you were having? My second, I sobbed. You did. Yeah. And we've talked on the show about gender disappointment. Yeah. Because I think it's real. I think no matter what you have this like gut feeling about what you have and if your doctor tells you that it's the opposite, like you have some degree of disappointment.

I, when we found out we were having our fourth girl, I was relieved because it was like, if we're having four kids, it feels good that they're all the same. gender. But then I got sad afterwards because I thought to myself, I'm never going to meet a mini version of my husband. And that made me a little sad. Turns out we actually made four of them. They're just girls. That's amazing. That's amazing. Now, I'm going to, I'm going to get us back to because we need to talk about this music tour, then your new music and your tour, because I am so excited about this. I mentioned it in your intro, but you've got to, a new album, which is amazing. Roommates and mature are, I kept going on replay because they're just, they're a good vibe.

They feel good. And also, I love the little hints in there. I love a little scandalous hint. I do. I love it. Now, do you have a favorite song from the album? is one of my favorite questions to ask people about new albums because then it helps me deep dive songs that I maybe have not gotten deep enough into yet.

Okay. I love weather for tennis and I love adult-sized medium. I think those are kind of like not as like obvious of us. I also love holiday party. I don't, there's like a whole bunch of songs that I feel like obviously mature was like the the first song I came out with to kind of like reintroduce like the the sound and then um you know and then I think there's like some obvious ones when you listen you're like oh that's that's like sticky like weather for tennis like feels super sticky to me roommates I just like

live for what it's about and who it's speaking to and like when I when I went to make this record I was like obviously I'm a mom and my mom of four and I'm like Like, I know my fans and I have gone through like such similar life experiences or sorry, not my fans, just people my age, right? Like we've, we're here. We've arrived. Like, here are some of the themes I'm dealing with. How about you?

Anyway, there's, there's so many songs I love on the record. It's like really, really a authentic, like, open book. And it was so fun to create and just kind of like pour a whole bunch of my personality that people haven't, you know, seen it a long time into it. It's very refreshing to get to listen to music that, like you're saying, is current for you, like life experience because it is like the fans that have grown up with you alongside you, like not only a fan, but appear like you're talking about, like that we're similar ages and that we're hitting the same phases of life and experiences.

So to hear that from you on this album, it feels, first of all, validating. And second, like, it's an easy listen and a comforting listen because it's so relatable to current life. And I think that that's why the, like I mentioned before, the comments of people saying, like, well, this isn't meant for children. Well, you're not in your childhood years anymore. Yeah. You're now raising children. You know, for for for the people who I'm really trying to talk to are all of the people who have shown up for this record and made this moment what it has become, which is really beyond my wildest dreams. You know, I feel so lucky that I got to, you know, play Lizzie McGuire and have that, that moment in my youth. And for some reason,

like, lightning struck and I got to tap people in like a very important way, you know, in a way that struck them and was, you know, important for them in their life. And then you know, come back around and really just be very genuine about like my approach and then have them relate to that too and and be seen on this level at this age. It's incredibly like healing for me to be like, I got to do it again. And I get to be me, fully me. This episode is sponsored by Liquid IV.

Wait, is there a Philly show? I'm just kidding. Yes, I actually love, love being in Phil. I love everywhere, I love New York, but I love everywhere like around New York. Like, I just, East Coast for me is so much fun to visit. Are you just saying that because

you're talking to me? No, I mean it. I mean, I have family in Boston. I don't know if those are like big competitors, but I love Philly. I love Boston. I love New York. I feel like they're, they're great, enthusiastic cities. And what can people expect? I mean, you know, it's been really fun to like dig into my catalog and find like the songs that really resonated with me when I performed them when I was young and bring them back out and like revamp them a little bit. So people can expect like the old and the new and to like come and have a great like carefree night. There'll be lots of color.

There'll be, you know, some surprises. I'm like, how do I tease this? rehearsals start like this this week and um there's a lot of like surprises in store so i'm i'm super excited i haven't done this in bucking forever so it's i'm gonna try to get a lot of sleep while i'm on the road and and show up the best that i can but the shows that i've you know done so far have felt so good and just like went by in the blink of an eye now we don't i'd also like to talk to a little bit about some throwback stuff if that's okay with you. I know you just released a re-recorded version of Come Clean.

What made you want to re-record some of your earlier stuff? Oh my gosh. Well, I got to be honest with you, the whole Taylor of it all really set the bar for being like, no, here's how we're going to do this. Here's how this is going to go. No, it's mine. No, it's mine. I actually called my versions mine.

And then I think the other reason was like I recorded those songs when I was like 14 years old. Like I had not a clue what I was doing. I had no technique. I didn't, you know, the internet loves to remind me of this. And I think that I was just like, I am such a different person now. If I'm going to sing these songs, like I want it to feel and sound like. me and you know i still very much sound like young um but there it was just like time it was so funny too to go back and like really try to get some of those sounds i felt so bad brian my

producer was like i really been trying to figure this one out like the times were so different that the the interesting use of like percussion or like a good like it was just very not what it is today. Now, bringing up that time, you were on the top of the charts with some of your first album, alongside huge names like Kelly Clarks and Brittany, Christina. Did your paths ever cross with those singers? And were there ever times where you felt starstruck or was it really a moment of like that those are your peers and that you guys are equals? Oh my God.

I never felt equal to any of like the pop grades because I feel like I was slightly younger than all of them. And also I just was like a little Disney star. Like I never, you know, like Christina and Brittany were like on a whole other planet than me. And I remember, I think I was, I can't remember what award show it was, but I was performing. at the award show and I remember during the set I might have been singing like so yesterday or something and just like looking like looking up and like locking eyes with christine aguilera I'm being like oh my god just like I'm not okay um but yeah no I think I think I maybe always felt like kid sister does that makes sense it does especially because of the the age gap now speaking

of pop icons, when I had Mandy Moore on the show, we talked a little bit about 2000s fashion. I believe she had some blonde eyebrows and a lot of choker necklaces, but you had some iconic outfits too. And I'm

looking at a decent amount of denim. Yeah. A dress over pants. Oh, yeah. Also, we should just talk about the like amount of accessorizing? I mean, it's still a lot. But the endless accessories was really my staple.

I loved it. I loved it. I will also tell you, I do think that you absolutely nailed. And I, so I still coach high school field hockey. And I love to remind the girls that I coach now when they are hitting these like new fashion trends. I'm like, nope, we did that. Nope, we did that. Nope.

We had that first. Like I still remember. in like third grade wearing the biker shorts, we did biker shorts first. Right. And I try to remind them of that to keep them humble. The low rise pants that are coming back now with just like a hint of the bottom of your stomach showing, like not belly button, not crop top, just the bottom of your belly. You nailed that look so hard back then.

You nailed it so hard. Thank you so much. I have visual proof in our rundown. You nailed that. And so I would just like to acknowledge the young. women who are listening, Hillary walked so you could run. Thank you so much. Thank you. Appreciate that. Yes. Yes. Did you have a favorite look besides your accessories or maybe it is your accessories? Did you have a favorite thing from that era of fashion?

Honestly, Capri pants are so back right now. It's crazy. I don't know if I'm willing to do it. Like, I think my shape is just not conducive for that anymore. Like, but like Lizzie McGuire wore, she was like, she did the capri pants all the time, but the little like slit on the side at the knee. And I'm seeing them everywhere now. My stylist Nilo tried to get me to wear a pair with like a corset. And I put it, I was laughing. I was hysterically laughing trying to get in them.

And it was like a hard outfit to getting because it was like a full, they sat like corset and honestly i looked in the mirror and i was like wait i look so cool wait do i like this yeah but then i was like i can't i can't take this seriously like i just you know when you get the giggles and you can't stop laughing every time i look at them in the mirror i was like i can't i can't but i think that honestly like that was that was a big me thing and now it's back i will say the capri's coming back actually helps me out a lot because I can't tell you how many times. I can't tell you how many times I order a regular length pant and it comes and it looks like a flood is on its way.

And I'm prepared because the whole ankle is out. We're talking up to the calf like a true capri. If I get a cropped, if I get a regular gene and it is cropped style. Yeah. Close to my like right under my knee. It's bad. But apparently it's good now. It's,

I'm actually fine. Haley, you see like Haley Bieber's wearing capri pants all over the place. It's your time. I mean, here's the thing. You're going to have to pry my sweatpants from my cold dead hands. Yeah. Yeah, I know. I feel that hard pants and I don't really get along.

Really? See, I feel like when I'm, when I get the baby out of my body, like that's what I want. I just want to put my jeans back on. I want them to fit. I'm such a jeans girl. Can you coach me up on that? because maybe I just, I will say years ago, I went through a month long where I was like ordering every, it was actually after my second child, I ordered so many freaking pairs of jeans to try on in the privacy of my own home.

Yeah. That's the way to do it. It was countless, but I could not. I still haven't found ones. Well, I had one pair. God, they're good. One single pair of jeans. Let me tell you, I had one pair of jeans. And her and I like this. Oh. then also my thighs are like this. So I wore a little, I wore them, they were the only jeans I would wear and I wore right next to the seam on the inner thigh. And they're no longer. You couldn't get them repaired? I don't think so. My thighs love each other. They're like, we are meant to be besties. Who am I? Who am I to separate them? You know? But those, those were the only jeans where I was like, I'd wear these every day. What was the brand? I'd love to

tell you. I'm a real A Goldie girl right now, but I have no idea if that works for tall girls. Is that how you say that? Oh my God. Is it not? I'm pretty sure it is. Tell me you were saying a Goldie. I have, I've never said it out loud. I've literally never said the brand out loud. I mean, I'm pretty sure it's a goldie. No, no, I am when I say that, I am not questioning you. I'm asking you for reassurance so that when I do. decide the time comes to say that brand out loud. Okay, I'm going to be your coach. It's a goldie. You're lit. Got it. A gold. Done. Now I can talk to the woman at the store about the A. Goldie jeans. Perfect. Oh, gosh. Now, I'd love to circle back to motherhood since you have a teenager in the

house. I'm always shocked to learn about Jen Alpha slang from my high school field hockey players. Have you learned any new words from your son? Yeah. I mean, all the time. I'm like, what am I going to say that's not going to like completely embarrass him? Because the second I use it or talk about him, he's like, just don't. Please don't. It's very cringe. I don't know if cringe is old now. Cridge might be old. There's probably a new, there's probably a new term for cringe. Something I heard him saying the other day was like, he he wanted to take like a screen like a screen grab of his friend, him and his friend. his mom sent me a picture of them when they were little.

Like, oh, look at this. Look at them at this. Whatever. And Luca was like, oh, let me have that. Let me have that. And like screen grabbed it. And they based and like to like torture him with it, right? Because now he has a baby photo of him.

And so basically they, they, they call that like, have you ever seen them like to FaceTime each other? They don't put their faces on the screen. My niece does this. Okay. So the like phones up here. here and you're like, why are you doing? It's called like getting clipped or something.

What? Yeah. And they don't want to get clipped. They don't want like a screen bag to be taken of them. Okay. This is helpful. Right? Yeah.

I don't know. Ask your field hockey team. Let me tell you two field hockey seasons ago. I had to get explained, uh, point five. What's point fiving someone? Did you get point fived? Oh, is it where they, the photos? Yes, I know.

It's like the worst possible angle? Yeah, and one of them got me. And I said, you know what? You can have that. You're like fair and square. That's my gift to you. Don't ever say I didn't do anything for you. Yeah, I, no.

I can't keep up. Last season, I say this like a badge of honor. Last season, one of my girls told me that I was unk. And it doesn't, I don't think it's quite as flattering as like the OG version of Unk, which is just like sort of like your elder, like someone you respect that's older, I think it's more of like, oh, you're old. And Unk? I've never even heard that.

Unk. Unk. And you're like, maybe it's an East Coast thing. Maybe it's an East Coast thing. It hasn't arrived here yet. Well, you're welcome. Maybe you can get ahead of it. If I use it tonight, Luke is going to be like, no.

How old is your oldest? Six years old. So we're not there yet. I locked it out fast. Yes, we did. Five, six, three and one? Yes. Are you okay?

No. Thank you for asking. Yeah. Like what on earth? No, because I don't like being pregnant. So I just wanted to get it over with and be done with it because I don't like it. I don't enjoy myself. I'm nauseous the whole time.

They take over my body. I have different symptoms with every single one of them. It's trash. It's trash. It's trash. It's actually a means to an end. And I love smushy babies. I love them. This is really off topic, but I just feel the need to share with you right now because you know when everyone comes and tells you when you're pregnant, like, oh, this horrible thing happened to me. You know how everyone loves to tell you their horror stories? And it is a right to passage, right? They have them. We recently got hamsters and the same experience is happening to me. Everyone's coming out of the word where it's like, oh, you want to hear about my hamsters. Oh, you want to know what my hamsters did. And I'm like, this reminds me of when I was pregnant. And everyone wants to like, dump. on you. I'm like, we got the hamsters. It happens. They just, they are trying to just wait you with

the hamster. The just wait until the 18 months sleep compression. The other one bites the one's head off. Like, I'm like, what? Just wait until it surprisingly has babies and eats them. Yeah. I will tell you, I'll give you a piece of advice about hamsters that is a school trick. My mom has worked in elementary schools for over 30 years. Okay. Because, you know, every so often, there's a, there's a classroom pet, they escapes. No, this is if they escape. Sometimes they decide to be an escape artist. If it escapes, you get one of the, like, Lowe's Home Depot bucket. And you get a little ramp, anything you can use, a ramp to get up into the bucket. And you put food in the bucket, something enticing, peanut butter, nuts, something that's nice and smelly and they'll want to go

into. And eventually you'll just hear a little plop because they will walk up the little ramp and fall into bucket and then they can't get out. So now you have your hamster back. Got it. Okay. All right. That's if you want to save them. If you think they're still alive. I'm like, I don't know how long they're going to last for. And that's okay. Yeah. I mean, if they survive, they're not going to survive my cats. My one cat lays on top of the hamster house. You got the cat a pet is what you're saying. Oh, yeah. And she's like, yeah, she's waiting for that. She's like, escape, just do it. Just escape real quick. Just try it. Just try to deny it. Let me open the door for you. Yeah. This way out. Uh-huh. Yeah. So if I won't so much doom and gloom you, but if they do make it out and you still think they're alive, the bucket. Just get a

low's bucket. A little ramp on the peanut butter. We're good. Now, I would like to ask you, as someone who I, you couldn't pay me to do what you did. Let's start there. I need to know, though, what is harder? Childbirth or getting through all of the hot one swings. Is that what you mean you wouldn't have a home birth? Couldn't pay me. Okay. Well, did you have home births? Yeah. I have so many questions. Okay. Did they bring the pool to you? The pool is like in my house like two to three weeks before I give birth, but it's like not blown up. That's my husband's job once it's like go time.

Is it your pool or the birth dula's pool? It's my, sorry, I don't like own it, but it's from a company. Perfect. Okay. Thank you so much for clarifying this. Yeah. I thought maybe people were giving birth to these babies. This is not even to be funny. I truly thought this. I truly thought that people were having babies in these pools and then they would like wait a couple years and then they would put it out back like a kiddie pool for kids to play in. And I was like,

what a beautiful right of passage to get born into the pool. And then get to play in the pool. I don't know the difference because I am not a home birth person. No, no, no, no. Thank God. It's a totally, by the way, it's like sterilized and whatever, but it's like this makes me feel better. It's a high. It's, you know how kitty pools are like low? Yes. This is like enough where you could like a hot tub. Yes.

More like an inflatable hot tub. Okay. Okay. Now I'm with you. Yeah. This makes me feel a lot better. Yes. I would not.

I'm not a home birth person because I love an epidural. I love it so much. Okay. Yeah. I get it. Yeah. But. do did you think i mean then knowing that it's that you did a home birth i feel like i know the answer

but which was harder the home birth was much harder but hot wings once you get to like i was so excited when i found out it got hot i feel like i was like manifesting that coming to me i wanted it so bad because i love spicy things i love hot sauce i love that show i love the format like been a fan for a long time. So I, like, was so excited and that I got there. I was like, oh, my God, I actually had to do this. But like, I love spicy things. So it's all good. Once you get to like eight and you get to debaum, you're like not okay. But you're like, I'm at the end. Do you like a little bit? No, I think more just like every gasp of air is like on your already burning throats. And you're just like, and then you're trying to talk and make sense.

And like, that's not easy. Can I tell you, though, when you baited him for water? You want to go in for some water? If you do. Okay. Trick down. Outstanding. I was very proud of myself for that.

I was like, where did that come from? It would that you didn't go into that planning that? No. No, no, no. That was so funny. That clip, I've watched it multiple times because the way you were like, do you want to go in for some water? You want some wah-wa? It was so innocent.

The way you were like, you want some wah-wah? Like talking to your kids, right? And then all of a sudden you just go, you're tricked you? I was like, yes. Nailed that. You nailed that. There's sometimes I'm like, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?

Like, I don't know. It's, you know what? All of, I think that, you know, press is hard. Like, it's hard to like talk to people over and over again about the same things and, you know, come up with sort like so that was like a fun at least it was like something going on on top of also like talking to you like i'm talking to a mom like that's that's an easy space for me you know but sometimes when you're like interview after interview after interview it's like really hard i was i was excited about that one and then i was like oh i've really pulled some funny tricks out in my sleeve now i do

have to ask you it's the question i ask everyone um that is a mother I would love to know the best piece of motherhood advice that you've ever received. Oh my God. I feel like it hasn't come from like one person and it's not been like one. It can also be advice you now give if that helps. Okay. You have some experience. Yeah, I do.

And I think, well, one of them is like a basic overall tip is just like not getting trapped in the like one size fits all model because each one of your kids need something different. So like, May May is so independent. And sometimes I feel like I need to make sure she gets as much as the rest because she can kind of like cruise through and slay life and things seem to be easy for her, you know, but like thanks needs to download her day at the end. Like her love language is like time spent. So all the kids like figuring out what your kid's love language is. and just giving them little, like, hits of that is really important for me as a mother. And then the silliest one, which I know is, like, talked about all the time, but, like, truly getting down on their level and talking to them.

Truly just when things are really hard and, like, the household is exploding and you're, like, at your end, like, just getting down on the level and being face to face with them, I think, like, calms you down because you realize how small they are and also, like, makes them tune into you. I have never thought about that way. I've never thought about it that way that when you get down there, you realize how small they are. Yeah. Because every so often I, our six-year-old is very, she's very bright. And I'm not just saying that because I'm her mom. But to a degree that sometimes I have to remind myself that she's only six years old. Yeah. And just like having to crouch down. Like I always get down to face level with them, but I've never now next time I do it, I'm going to take a moment to be like, you are little. You're little. I don't. that's so special. Yeah. Oh, that's so great. Thank you so much for coming on to chat. This has been absolutely wonderful. You can get your tickets now to the Lucky Me tour. I can't wait. I have it marked off on my calendar. I can't wait to meet you in real life. I'll see you in Philly. I'm so excited. Yes. Please. I'm biased, but we're pretty great. The Philly tour is August 9th. So hopefully I will see you there. and have a blast on tour. Thank you so much for coming on.

I really appreciate it. Do you get to go to sleep now? No. I have to go do bad time. You get to go do bedtime. I have to go do bedtime. Oh. And that's it for this episode.
