Hey, so what did you want to talk about?
Well, I want to tell you about Wagovie.
Wagovie?
Yeah, Wagovie.
What about it?
On second thought, I might not be the right person to tell you.
Oh, you're not?
No, just ask your doctor.
About Wagovie?
Yeah, ask for it by name.
Okay, so why did you bring me to this circus?
Oh, I'm really into lion tamers.
You know, with the chair and everything?
Ask your doctor for Wagovie by name! Visit wofi.ca for savings. Exclusions may apply.

Not going to lie. If I get two wet spots on my shirt during this record, pretend you don't
see it.
Let's get this podcast started.
Welcome back to not gonna lie, a wave original brought to you by Duncan.
That's right.
Do you know how to fight for my life
to get out of the house with this box intact?
Now, is it a few munchkins short
of when it arrived at my home?
Yes.
But I made it out with it and that's what counts.
It started with 50, there might be,
there might be 20 left. I'm your host, Kylie Kelsey, longtime rule follower, noted baby wearer and fan of fireworks. Happy fourth. Uh, the
girls do not like fireworks. We're going to try to have some headphones available and
maybe we'll be able to see some from inside the house. That could be key,
honestly.
Coming up on today's episode, I'm going to take you through the highlights of our crazy
Team 62 fundraising week down the shore. To the thousands of people tagging me in the
videos of Jason's banana hammock, I've seen it. Yes, I am going to talk about it. After
that, I'm excited to be joined by an award-winning actress and
of course, someone I have no business speaking to, Priyanka Chopra Jonas.
But first on a brand new installment of Places Kylie has some business being, this week I
can admit it, I did have some business being down the shore in Sea Isle for our incredible incredible Shorebirds fundraiser for the Eagles Autism Foundation. It was crazy. And guys,
we did it. We raised over $1 million record setting year. We've had a record setting year
every single year, five years every year, record setting. Cool. And we had a lot of fun reaching
that fundraising goal. We kicked things off with our not going to lie yoga class on the beach. Shout out to the real ones that signed up. Shout out to Cheryl for
teaching the class. I genuinely didn't know yoga was supposed to be that hard. And by
hard, I mean challenging in a way that it was exciting. I liked it.
Then we had our main shorebirds event at the ocean drive in Seattle city where my husband
decided to climb on top of a large chair reserved for the OD bouncers, rip off his shorts and
reveal his red, white and blue banana hammock.
Where was I when this clip happened?
I'm going to tell you where I was.
I was at home feeding our small child.
Yep. Was it a strategic move to go and feed our child while intros were happening? Yes.
Did I miss this on purpose? No. I didn't want to be there for the intros because that means
I don't have to be introduced. By the time I was coming back, I had received a text
message of the behind angle and proceeding to magic Mike his shorts off. I have not seen
this move before. This is not so I don't know if he practiced. If he did, it was in the
in with doors closed. I don't I haven't seen this move. Am I bitter about that a little
bit? And I did know that the speedo was happening because this bet has been in effect between
Jason and Bo Allen for a very long time. Um, I want to say three months that they have
been on a weight loss journey. And I knew that the, I knew that the penalty was to wear a Speedo to the OD event.
I also know that I've been feeding him donuts and buying baked goods when appropriate.
Was it a little bit of sabotage?
No.
If it was, Bo Allen, you owe me some money because you're welcome.
I am unsure of all of the parameters set forth during this bet, but what I will tell you
is that he was so committed to this bit that he wore it the entire event and he wore it in the poor house after the event, which is where we sort of tie the night
together.
We take our group photo.
We hang out with the OD staff and the Eagle staff that are kind enough to volunteer.
He wore it then.
And then he got in our golf cart and wore it home. He wore it all the way home. I'm unsure where the
breakaway shorts are, to be clear. I don't know. They might be off in the world now because he
certainly didn't put them back on. I do think it's comical that I just asked you guys to stop putting drool emojis under
my husband. And then he came out in a crop top and did breakaway shorts. I do, I do see
that. I wasn't trying to set you guys up for failure. I wasn't genuinely wasn't. It was
a timely thing that I needed
to address based on the thirst traps of my husband in a bluey two-piece in the south
of France. And then he just went on and continued to be sexy. I can't help that.
Then we got to guest bartending where I was rightfully behind the Shirley Temple bar slinging
Shirley temples. I was back there with two bartenders, Queen Emma. She was with me and
I just went out there, you know, to say hello, mostly to get a frozen Shirley temple. And
Jamie gave me a fuck around and find out bracelet. I love that. Thank you,
Jamie. Jamie and I also saw each other last year and she gave me a fuck off bracelet.
So stay tuned. Next time I see Jamie, who knows what the bracelet will say? I love that.
And I love that Jamie gets it in terms of team 62 at the Ocean Drive and shorebirds and all of the things that unfolded,
who knows how much we'll raise in year six. It's exciting what we've been able to do in the last
five years. It is with the help of the businesses in Seahull, the Ocean Drive, the Yacht Club
of Seahull City, all of our sponsors that we've had over the years, all of the guys
who come to guest bartend, we wouldn't be able to do it without them.
And top of the list, well, also all of our volunteers from the Eagles, all of our volunteers from EAF. But
really, the most obvious one that I think gets skipped over because it's the most obvious
is my husband. I'm just super grateful that he's committed the last five years to continuing
to raise the bar and continuing to set records, like I said, and to continue
to give other guys the opportunity to feel the enthusiasm of the fans, to raise money,
and to have such a massive impact on the fundraising for the Ego's Autism Foundation. So really shout out to my husband because
you, you did that five years worth of hard work and, um, and you look damn good doing it. So yeah,
I said it and that does it for places. Kylie has some business being moving on. We just got some
big news out of Philly and
I think it might be safe to say that NGL can take credit for it. No, I'm kidding. We know
that this was probably a lot longer in the making and it was just a really timely question
that I asked on Sally if she would ever be interested in the Philadelphia WNBA team.
But just days after I talked to her, you see what I'm saying? It's officially
happening. It was definitely, it wasn't us, but I'm cool with it. It adds to our list
of manifestations. That's all I'm saying. Because I genuinely did not know about this.
I'm not going to lie to you guys. I didn't know about it. Philly will become the WNBA's 18th team and the first season
is set for 2030. I'm so excited. I feel like I need to reconnect with Dawn Staley. I'm just
going to throw that out there. Uh, I think that there's a little bit of controversy about the,
who's going to own the team. Just saying
it would be really cool if it was female owned. But if you need additional female investors,
maybe call me. Guys, here's the deal. Philadelphia is a passionate fan base. I'm so excited for a WNBA team to be able to experience that level of passion.
But also I think we should recognize the fact that if someone else has bought into another
city that is, I don't know, maybe one of our rivals, that maybe they shouldn't have to
be so deeply engrained in our sports culture.
I am very excited to have the opportunity to not only go and watch WNBA games right
here in Philadelphia, but also to bring my girlies because they are due to be giants.
And I say that being a giant myself and maybe at least one of them will be into basketball.
That would be cool.
There's also been a lot of ideas thrown out there for the potential name of Philly's WNBA
team. And I got to say
something to the people pitching names like the Philadelphia 76 hers, the Liberty bells
and the 70 sisters. Jesus. That's so bad. I think it's important to recognize that we
do not need to lean into a female version of a name. That
we can just lean into badass and let it be. I'll tell you the one name that I heard that
I am okay with. And that would be the Philadelphia broads. I'm gonna tell you why. Because in
Philadelphia broad is Broad Street, obviously, that runs through the center of the city.
But the last time Broad's was used in a name for a professional team in the city was the
Broad Street Bullies, which was in reference to an era of the Flyers.
They were badasses.
They were busting out fights left and right.
They were handling business on the ice. So to me, being from here, broads sounds like powerful. I like it. Bells, not
so much. Let's not do that. We don't need to be like delicate, dainty. We can be feminine
and girly and still be bad asses. Okay. There's other names I
do like, uh, the Philadelphia rage, which the rage was led by Dawn Stanley in 1996.
So it makes sense that we would have the rage back. And also let's be real. We do have some
rage here in Philadelphia. Well, now that that's been addressed, it's time for my conversation
with Priyanka Chopra Jonas. I actually taped this from my brand new shore house set. Let me know what you
guys think. Also fair warning, there's a high probability a toddler crashes this set in
the future. So, um, because it is a bedroom at our beach house. But first Duncan, I've
talked about my love for Duncan's butter pecan iced coffee so much on this show.
I've debated renaming it to not going to lie with Butter Pecan.
Kind of awesome, right?
Seriously, I might do it.
However, there's one thing stopping me.
It wouldn't be fair to one of my new loves at Duncan, their mango pineapple refresher
with a green tea base.
God, that's a good summer drink.
It is so refreshing.
It's kind of tart and it's sweet,
but it's a little tea, if you catch my drift.
And you can give it a try right now.
Head to your local Duncan or go right into the Duncan app
and customize your own refresher
by combining your favorite flavors and drink bases. It's so customizable. You can do whatever you want with flavors like strawberry,
dragon fruit, mango, pineapple, and tropical guava. You can't go wrong. Treat yourself with
exactly what you've been craving. This summer, head to Dunkin to build your refresher your way.

Plus, she's an advocate for girls' health

and now she's not gonna lie.
Priyanka Chopra Jonas, welcome to the show.
Hi, thank you so much for having me.
I'm so, so happy to be here.
I'm such a fan of your show.
I love what you do on the show and I love your conversations.
I was so excited to come on.
Thank you, we are so excited to come on. Thank you
We are so excited to have you you're yet another guest
I have no business talking to and I'm excited because we also have the girl mom thing going on. Yes, we do
Not gonna lie Priyanka. I was just watching the Tonight Show
And as a mom when you were talking about balancing your shoots long long flights, your husband's work, your daughter's school,
pretty much everything, I felt that deep in my bones.
I've always said I kind of thrive in chaos.
Do you prefer that level of commitment and chaos?
You know, I used to think that.
And maybe this was in my 30s or my 20s, where I was like, I thrive in chaos. And when shit's just thrown at me from every direction
is when I can get laser focused and burn the candle on both ends. But now as I'm in my
40s, I like having a plan. I like being organized. I like lists. I like them checked off. I like
figuring out what the entire day for everyone in our family is before I leave my house.
So I...
That sounds so peaceful.
It's not.
Now, do you guys get a little bit of a break in the summer?
I did this year.
I'm filming a movie in India after many, many years.
So I was flying back and forth and my husband, Nick, was on
Broadway and he just finished his show yesterday actually. So we kind of moved
to New York. We live in LA usually and we moved to New York and it's easier to fly
to Asia from New York than it is California. Speaking of travel, do you
have any travel tips for kids? Because that is one thing that I am very much struggling with.
It's something that almost holds me back,
like the anxiety of traveling with kids almost
holds me back from traveling more with them.
So a few things, definitely, is the more you do it,
the more they get used to it.
Perfect.
The more you have to. You just have to put them and load them in the car, take it, the more they get used to it. Perfect. The more- You have to.
You just have to put them in, load them in the car,
take them to the airport.
I pick her up from bed when she's sleeping on my shoulder,
put her in the car seat,
get to the airport at 4 a.m. in the morning,
and she'll wake up and she'll look around
and she's like, oh, okay,
I'm going back to New York from India.
And then, you know, she put her head on my shoulder
and she'll wake up and what I
like to do with them. But I also travel with one child. You travel with four. So that's
like that.
Yeah, but I would never go without man-to-man coverage.
Right. You have to have coverage. Each one has to have coverage. Absolutely. So that's
crucial one. Second of all, if they're up and they're up when it's daytime, like I'm
talking about international travel, if it's daytime. Like I'm talking about international travel. If
it's daytime in the country you're going to let them stay out even if it's four o'clock
in the morning. Encourage it in fact. You got to push them just a little bit so that
they don't jet lag as much. Second, entertainment, entertainment, entertainment. And that doesn't
mean you have to take like loads of toys and stuff like that. I have like little things
in my bag. Like my daughter's obsessed with Moana.
So I have little Moana, little Minnie,
little like Heihei, little Pua.
And they're all in my bag.
And she just has imaginative play.
I just take out one at a time.
Or like, you know, little coloring books
or I wear a squish ball.
Like just toddlers don't care.
Oh yeah.
Little entertainment things.
And so I do that a lot. And I bought this and try to make
everything fun, like an adventure. Also, like this is not mundane. So now you get to pick where is
our gate? Let's find the number. And she loves Moana, so she's a wayfinder. So I give her the
responsibility of finding us, taking us to our gate. That's perfect.
I'd love to talk to you about your amazing career,
starting with your brand new movie, Heads of State.
It's available to stream now on Prime Video.
If it wasn't already clear from your previous roles,
you are a full-on action star.
I actually saw you doing a little
fight scene with Jimmy Fallon. Oh yeah I was trying to teach him how to fake
fight movie fight you know it's different than real fight. It seems like a very
quick lesson that was very efficient and you guys absolutely nailed it the slow
mo was top tier. Of all the genres you've acted throughout your career, is action your favorite?
I look good with a gun in my hand.
What do I say?
So I'm kind of like people who like me in that part.
So a lot of stuff comes to me, which is always saving the guys
and making sure that they are protected.
If you're a badass, you're a badass.
What can I say?
So I love that.
And I think I enjoy stunts, and I enjoy the adrenaline
and the technique of action very much.
I think that it's such an incredible responsibility
within those five to seven seconds to make it look real,
but at the same time not hurt your co-actor. And in Heads of State, I do some brutal fighting, like
I break necks and stuff.
What was the most exciting stunt you did?
On this job?
Yes.
In Heads of State? There's this one sequence where I run through a gallery,
and it's one shot, just like Rambo,
just like taking out people.
And it took a lot of choreography
and I had to break down this door.
So I kicked this door down.
And it was really funny.
It was an actual door on hinges
and I just kept kicking it down and my leg would
not reach as high as we wanted it to. So you couldn't see it in the camera. And they wanted
the force to be so much that the door like comes off its hinges. Like that's how strong
I had to kick. So the first time I did it, I was like, okay, fine. Second time, by the fourth time, my thighs were about to give in.
Like, I may do stunts for a living,
but like, don't make me kick down
a like old ancient wooden door in the UK
and where you know it's like actual real wood.
And then suddenly somebody said after the fourth take
and I'm like, oh, bring me Advil.
They're like, you know what?
We could just attach a wire to it and pull it when you kick it. And I was like,
yeah. Like, no, guys, the second take wasn't worth that. I was like, we could, we could,
couldn't we? You know what? Better late than never.
Yes. Eventually they helped me so that it looks extra strong.
But that was really funny.
That was one of my favorites because I just, I felt really accomplished because I actually,
the first two takes, it was really strong and I was like, I'm tough, I'm strong.
So I felt really good about it, but yeah, we didn't need to do it.
Before all of your Hollywood stardom,
you were dominating the Bollywood box office
since literally 2002.
For anyone listening who isn't as familiar with Bollywood
movies and wants to get into it, what movies
would you have them start with?
Ooh.
I would say you should go onto Amazon Prime and Netflix and see some of the newer movies
that have come out.
I feel like the evolution of Bollywood, we have every genre.
People think Bollywood is one genre.
In fact, I saw it somewhere where there were different genres for movies and I can't remember
what platform this was.
It was action, comedy, Bollywood,
as if it's like a genre, but Bollywood's not.
It's basically the association with the Bollywood movies,
the big set pieces, the dance numbers, the action scene,
the drama, like all of it together.
And yes, that's what we call the masala movie.
But we have so many genres of film, so many kind of filmmakers, that if you go on to a path of exploration, it'll be really fun. But one of my movies, which I really like is called Dildharakne Do and it's DDD, you can just Google that. But it's really fun because it's about a family and the pretences
that they keep up. And it's a romantic, wholesome, like comedy, dramedy, and just a family movie,
great songs, like, and a cute dog. It's really fun.
That sounds perfect. One more thing about movies, because specifically movies made in
India, I've mentioned on the show before, but my husband has put on the movie
RRR so many times, so many times that our girls now request the dance scene because
they are in love with it, which is totally understandable. It's incredible. They stand
in the middle of the living room and they try to do it.
Because I can't do it. I've tried it for years, like since it came out.
It's insane.
It is, it's so catchy, first of all.
And it is an incredible production.
Oh, not bad.
I know that you make her well.
I'll tell them you said that.
The only issue is,
is that a few times he has started it from the beginning.
Oh my gosh.
With our kids in the room.
And I've had to override with the Apple remote on my phone
to be like, nope, no.
No, not this part, no.
No.
Part.
But has your daughter watched your dance scene
in your movies and like been drawn to a particular one
or do you have one that's your favorite?
From mine?
Yes.
Oh.
I have done some fun dance songs in the past.
And my husband actually does a show and tell once in a while
when we have friends.
He'll randomly put it on YouTube,
and it's like slightly embarrassing,
but we're like, oh, see this song. But I don't think that's actually a really good question.
I don't think my daughter has seen me or in any of my songs. I'm going to show her one and see
what she says. Now, I don't know know about you but Frozen is a top contender.
Oh my god, huge. And I know that you voiced Elsa. Yes, I did in Hindi. Yes, how has Frozen
taken over your household? Yes, Frozen, Moana, and Minnie Mouse. These are our three favorite
characters. Daisy sometimes will get a cameo
here and there, but sure. It's predominant from Minnie, from Minnie Boatoon's. Yes,
from Minnie Boatoon's and only, and also is a fan of Lilo and Stitch now with Lilo and
Stitch 2. We started the series. Yeah, right. They're in there. They will pick it.
Yes. So we're trying to diversify in what we watch, but the princesses are dominating
at the moment. I think we're all living parallel lives. It really is the same thing. Speaking
of Disney movies, I'm not going to lie, as someone who grew up on Disney Channel at the
same time that your husband and his brothers were on there, I have to admit, I've seen a lot of their early stuff.
I'm talking Camp Rock, Camp Rock 2, Jonas.
Have you gone back and watched any of his throwback stuff?
So both of us didn't know very much
about each other's careers before we went.
We knew of each other maybe,
like of course I knew of the Jonas brothers, but I didn't
like different generation.
I didn't know, you know.
And so we did this thing when we got married where we just showed and we did a show and
tell of each other's careers with each other.
So we sit with a bottle of wine and just show each other a clip from stuff we've done.
So because of that, I have seen Jonas.
I think that show is amazing. I've seen Married to Jonas, which I love. Camp Rock, not as much.
I'm very excited about the new Camp Rock movie. And I think that, you know, his earlier stuff is
just so fun. And he's seen some of mine like that as well.
Now I think everyone in the world must know this about me already, but I met my husband
on Tinder, which makes me appreciate the fact that you guys met through a DM.
Yeah, on Twitter.
Yeah, that's outstanding.
I did see that you have shared the pick-up line used by him, which I believe you said was
People said we should meet people people said we should we should people is it was a people or I think it was
Friends and friends. Yeah, like we have common friends and I've heard we should meet and it was just so
so Nick now that I know him, but
Just so confident and dry and direct. You know, there's something really cool about that.
And yeah, and then we just never stopped texting.
But it took about a year for us to actually, you know, do something about it.
Yeah, connect.
Sure.
We were both in complicated situations
How did those early dates go when you met in person?
So the first time I was late by 45 minutes, and he doesn't let me live it down
Because he was like I was waiting there for 45 minutes
And I was just about to leave and I was filming He thinks that's a lie, but I was.
I literally came from set.
So we've just decided to agree to disagree
on our versions of the story.
But it was really embarrassing.
I felt really bad making him wait for 45 minutes.
And then the end of the night, we went back to my place,
but just to hang out, because we were at the Carlisle
and it was closing. And I told him my mom's home, so she might be up. I forgot to tell
my mom that I was bringing a boy back and we were sharing the apartment at that time.
So my mom was laid out on the couch watching SVU.
That's amazing. When I walked in with Nick, she was so mad at me.
That is incredible.
She ran to her bedroom.
She was like, you should have told me.
It was one o'clock in the morning.
She was like, you should have told me somebody was coming over while she's putting her lipstick.
She's like, I'm not coming back out.
I was like, why are you wearing lipstick? So Nick met your mom on the first date? Yeah. I don't think we thought it was a
date. We were going to the Met Gala together because we were both going with the same brand,
Ralph Lauren. And they said, you know, you're two of the singles. Do you guys want to just walk the
carpet together? I don't even know. I've never done that before. It's such a weird thing to say yes to with someone you don't know at all. But I don't
know why we both did. And because we were going to go together, we kind of were like,
let's just meet. So I don't think it was a date. We met to kind of see what it was.
Sure. Toss the waters, dip your toes in. Yeah, kind of like that. And then he gave me a
hug at the end of the night. And I thought I really royally screwed it up. Cause he just went like,
then he patted me on the back twice. Oh, yeah. Back that I got like the back. Everybody knows the
back pad is like the friend pad. That's what I thought. And then we're married.
I thought that. I thought it was because I was 45 minutes late, he's like, oh, she's
a diva, whatever. And I was like, I got a back pad at the end of the night. And I remembered
like discussing this with my best friends the next day. I was like, what does this mean?
Like, should I be texting him now? Is it awkward? Am I friend zoned? Like it was a whole conversation. And then for about a year, we just kind of texted, we were both traveling
till we went out for a date, a proper date, and then never stopped dating.
Maybe the good luck charm is the 45 minute threshold because
when I met my husband for the first time in person
after 45 minutes he fell asleep on the bar table so maybe that's what it is maybe it's the 45 minute
yeah I feel like that's that might be that's a good window you're right previously on the
dunkin chronicles jason quick i'm in labor where do you think I am? I'm at Dunkin'!
And now part two.
Interior Dunkin', Ardmore, October 2019.
Kylie's on a makeshift hospital bed constructed of donut boxes,
squeezing her husband Jason's hand into oblivion while he holds a donut in the other.
Dr. Colleen is coaching Kylie through her Dunkin' labor.
Holy munchkins, that hurts!
I can't believe I'm giving birth in this Duncan right now.
My life will definitely never get crazier than this.
I can see her head, push.
Do you promise I can have butter pecan when she's out?
You can have a butter pecan and a box of munchkins
when she's out.
One more push.
This is all the motivation Kylie needed.
Suddenly the first Kelsey baby is born. Kylie and Jason
hold their beautiful baby girl.
What should we name her? I can't even think straight right now.
Dr. Colleen hands Kylie her Butter Pecan iced coffee as promised. She takes a sip. Her mind
is suddenly clear.
Let's name her Wyatt. Wyatt Butter Pecan Kelsey. Jason laughs as if Kylie is joking.
She stares back at him.
She's not joking.
Well, I'd love to go back to your work life a little bit
because apart from your acting career,
you've also dedicated so much of your life to philanthropy.
Specifically, I commend you on your focus on education as well, because I always say
like kids are so, they have this thirst for knowledge, right?
And they want to learn and you can excite them in their learning, but everyone should
be able to get an education and no one can ever take your education from you.
Once you've learned something, no one can take that away.
So it's such an intangible that we should value and for you to be able to create those opportunities and support the organizations
Creating those opportunities is incredible
Are there any in initiatives or projects that you're working on right now that you can share?
Well, I consistently work with UNICEF and I also have been working on with my foundation
for health and education we fund
been working on with my foundation for health and education. We fund people who want like because my parents were doctors, I always wanted to help with that with like medical
procedures you can't afford and like, and it was always privately funded. But yeah,
I try to lend myself wherever I can. I was just thinking about, you know, when you were
talking about education, I remember I had to drop out of
high school because my career just took off. And I remember going to like meeting some
kids and I think this was in a village in India. And there were some girls who were,
you know, pulled out of school because after fourth grade, like, what's the point? You're
going to get married. We don't need to spend money on sending you to school.
And through UNICEF and the nonprofits,
she went back to school,
she fought with her parents to not get married,
went back to school.
The right that a child has to open their mind by attending school, like I know a lot of
us take that for granted, but for some children, it is the most coveted thing in their lives
to be that'll take them out of the cycle that they're stuck in.
And that was really moving to me.
She changed her parents' life.
She ended up getting a job. She bought her
mom was a tailor. She ended up buying sewing machines for her new sewing machines for her
parents. She created an income, a renewed income flow for both of them, eventually funded
their medical bills and all this because she said, no, I'm not going to get married and
go back to school. Like the power of that for so many kids around the world.
So I was very moved by that very early in my life of meeting a lot of children
who just wanted to go to school.
So education became our access to education became a really big part of my advocacy.
That's incredible.
Now, I'd love to take some time to get back into motherhood
a little bit, especially because I, like I said, fellow girl mom, I always tell my listeners,
I will never lie to them, but I will lie to my children. I recently shared that I told
the kids that the TV in my new Vinny van only works for long car rides so that we didn't
have to like pretend that we didn't have to pretend
that we were gonna watch TV in the car.
My husband-
I expect the internet's not working,
because she understands that.
My husband has also told them that cats are poisonous
to get them to stop asking for a cat.
That one,
that one I was a little skeptical on,
because I was like,
you know they're gonna go to school
and tell other kids this, right?
It's fine.
That's amazing.
What are some of the, I mean, obviously,
like you said, the internet's not working.
What are some of the other lives that you-
The internet never works in our house.
It's crazy how that happens, right?
It just never works in our house.
It's so strange.
Only Sunday or Saturday evenings during dinner.
That's not... But like, yes, definitely little things like that where,
you think, little lies.
The other day, my daughter is so sassy and I know she's me. So it's even more annoying because I can't blame anyone else for her attitude.
And she's like, no, mama, this is mine and I'm going to keep it in my bedroom.
And I was like, I'm your mama.
If you don't change your attitude, miss, I'm keeping this in my room and you don't get
it back.
And she huffed and she puffed and she walked around.
She was like, but it's mine.
And I said, I'm your mom.
I can take away everything.
And she goes, her big eyes just went out.
I'm so sorry.
I can't take away.
I can't take away.
I know she, like it was such a like revelation to her
because you know, she's the most precious thing
in our lives and it was such a miracle anyway that she gets away
with murder with me.
So I try.
I try.
But the internet is one of my big lies.
Oh, and with food as well.
She wants to be as old as Moana.
And my daughter was a preemie baby.
So I'm one of those NICU moms that is still
obsessed with her nutrition. So I have to make sure NICU moms that is still like obsessed with her nutrition. So
I have to make sure each meal, like she gets it in. Even though I'm pediatrician said I
need to stop like obsessing over it. I can't help it because she was so tiny when she was
born.
Did I hear correctly that it was 110 days? That is impressive.
The entire-
What a fighter girl.
Yeah, she really fought and clawed her way into life.
And I have so much admiration for her.
So she gets away with anything with me, honestly.
I'm just like, yes, take it.
It's yours.
Everything.
Everything.
Whatever you need.
Do you want things out of my room too?
She does.
She comes into my closet.
She calls it the magic closet.
She'll wear my shoes, walk out.
She'll like take my bag, walk out.
She would get along with our third.
Yeah.
She, she'll point to anyone's like belt bag and be like, you have wake up?
And I'm like, no, you, you're two years old.
You can't have makeup.
I have wake up on my lips.
And I'm like, no, you cannot.
So now naturally, lip balm. She has a lip balm in
my purse that is designated as hers. Open it up because it's absolutely destroyed. Like
it's like, mine is like, yeah, mine's nice. There's like dirt around her rim, like a little
nail marks in it. I'm like, it's easy to tell the difference. Yes, I totally know which
ones my daughter's to I keep it for her and she calls it a yippee.
Yesterday she said to Nick, we were at dinner
and he was wearing a suit and she said to him,
Gaga, you look like a prince.
I wanna dance with you.
And she just picked him up at dinner
and they were dancing for like 10 minutes.
It was so sweet.
At the Met, she said to me,
Mama and Gaga are going to a ball.
Oh, it's the best. I just want to see life through their eyes for a little bit.
I only do that. It's my escape. Like if I'm having a shitty day, that's what I do. I come
back home to my daughter and my husband. Like I come back home, especially to her, and I
like just throw my bag, my shoes, whatever, and just snuggle into her.
And she's like, oh, mama.
She'll fight it and I'll not let her go.
And then, you know, she'll yell at me
and then she'll get busy.
And then I get busy with her
and everything is okay in the world.
I just recently had a moment of a very grounding moment
because our oldest went up to the baby and said,
tell me everything, tell me all the things.
And I was like, oh gosh.
And so usually when I come back to her, if it's like we've had a long day apart
or even if I'm just busy doing something and I come back and she's like sitting on the couch
coloring or doing her practice books or even just like watching a show.
I'll come back in.
I'll be like, tell me everything.
And she's like, I'm like, tell me all the things.
And so to watch her do it to the baby, I was like, oh, that is so sweet.
It hits you right in the heart.
I've said it before and I really have quadrupled down at this point.
When we found out we are having our fourth daughter, my husband was meant to have all girls. He's an outstanding girl dad. He really has embraced
it fully and the girls are absolutely in love with him. And I think that really just strikes
a chord that I don't think he ever knew he could feel. And it's been incredible to watch
him with them.
What's it been like for you to experience
your husband as a girl dad?
Oh, it's so sweet.
You know, when, like this morning when I was leaving
for press, 7 in the morning, the two of them
were snuggled in bed together.
And I was just like, I stood there for a second.
And I was like, oh, both these curly tops. And that's my world. And just, you know,
seeing him be so protective of her. And we divide our parenting responsibilities where,
you know, he does all the, like the paperwork, the finances, the legals, the like all of that stuff that I can't look at.
And you know, he like handle things for us.
So it just makes my life and hers so easy.
And I just love seeing him in that position.
He was always like that with me as well, honestly.
I've kind of seen him slip into being,
like this is my family and I take care of them with her. And it's, it's
really beautiful to watch.
Now we've also talked a lot about on the podcast about funcals. Yeah. Uh, because they're real
fun. Uh, how are they doing? How are the funcals in your family? They're great. My brother, my brother's constantly supplying her with like Indian spicy snacks
that she loves. It's like sour candy made out of tamarind and proper spice and like
so much sugar. So if you give it to her in the evening, she's awake to like 10 30 at
night. So that's really cute. Joe's uncle
go, which is uncle go. You know, uncle go. Kevys, kevy, Danny,
his wife is D. And Franklin is typeo. I don't know. Typeo was
her word for teddy bear. And then she just called him that.
So cute. So cute.
That is so sweet.
I have one last question for you.
I love to ask my fellow mom guests this,
what's the best piece of motherhood advice
that you've ever received?
Or what's your go-to advice that you give other moms?
I think the really important motherhood advice that I got was to listen to her and always
believe her. Believe your kids when they say something. And it's very easy for us to sometimes
be like, I see other moms do it where they're like, I don't know where this came from or why
she's saying that. But there's always some element of truth behind it, especially when they do it
before falling asleep or in those truth moments when they're bonding with you. And that was really like advice that I like
locked into my head. I was like, okay, always listen and always believe, believe them. So
I just let her talk and listen to her and actually engage with her. And I think your
kid, your relationship with your kid, the bond becomes so strong
because they feel heard.
That is so beautiful. I cannot thank you enough for joining me today. We are so excited that
you came on for an episode of Not Gonna Lie. And thank you for all of your work in philanthropy.
And I just, I cannot emphasize enough after watching some Bollywood films that it, the, you saying
that like it is put into a genre on streaming services and you also pointing out that it
is song, dance, acting, this sort of like next level theatrics.
I mean, it's like beyond a triple thread.
It's beyond impressive.
And then I'm so excited for your movie coming
now available on Amazon Prime.
On Prime.
I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Please watch it with your friends and family.
It's such a fun ride.
It's like, it's on your TV.
So post dinner, like that's the routine in our family
is post dinner, we sit down and watch a movie together.
And this is one of those movies you wanna see
with your friends.
And it's just, and it's 4th of July weekend.
So everyone's together anyway.
So have a good time with this one.
