In my past life, I used to be editor-in-chief of OK! magazine, the only Hollywood entertainment and royalty magazine in the Philippines. That fun job lasted for 7 years and I'm happy to move on, but sometimes I miss writing about Hollywood. Especially when the celebrity world's been crazy—and it's been CRAZY lately (Taylor vs Kim and Kanye and Calvin, for example). So anyway, I'm going to try and do an OK! article today. Today's attempt at celebrity coverage will be inspired by:
1. OK!'s listicles. Yes, celebrity rags have been doing those years before Buzzfeed!
2. Megan Fox gave birth to her third baby while pregnant Blake Lively asked people to stop commenting on her fabulous post-baby and now-pregnant-again body.
3. Sorry, Blake, but your amazing body does make us ordinary mommies look at our own bodies and wish we could look just a wee bit like you and Megan! So we're going to feature moms who look good and who don't have the excuse of youth. Yep, we're doing...
Hot celebrity moms over 35 revealed!
Being a mommy is hard work. But being in the spotlight and bringing up children must be a big challenge. Mothering is very personal and to do that while everyone's watching can be crazy. I'm not even a celebrity and yet, because of this blog and social media, people judge away! Imagine being a public figure!
Anyway, these mommies have earned so much money in their acting or singing careers and entrepreneurial ventures. I guess that's why it's easier for them to look incredibly stylish as they mother and work. And yet they still feel so real, hands on and actually relatable. Here are seven inspiring and stylish celebrity mommies!
Jessica Alba, 35
The youngest inspiring and stylish celebrity mom who makes my list is Jessica Alba. The actress starred in popular films like The Fantastic Four and Good Luck Chuck. But at the height of her career, the 35-year-old took a low profile after having two daughters with her husband Cash Warren. Motherhood propelled her to another kind of success, however. Unable to find safe products for her kids and home, she made her own! She founded and co-owns a non-toxic-household goods company called The Honest Company. It’s been a huge success and has meant Jessica’s net worth is around $350 million! You can read more Richest People articles to find out how much other celebrities are worth!

Reese Witherspoon, 40
The effervescent Reese Witherspoon may be well-known for being in rom-coms like Sweet Home Alabama and Legally Blonde, but the 40-year-old also has an Oscar for her dramatic portrayal of June Carter in Walk the Line in 2006. As well as being a highly successful actress, Reese has three kids. She had two with her first husband, Ryan Phillippe, and then they split. She went on to have another boy with her now-husband Jim Roth. Despite her busy schedule, she always looks great! I talked before about the beautiful Nina Ricci yellow dress she wore back in 2007 when she was going through her divorce with Ryan. She looked fantastic, even though she was going through a tough time! That's the best revenge!

Angelina Jolie, 41
What list about inspiring and gorgeous moms would be complete without Angelina Jolie? The Oscar-winning actress has been in many films over the years including Maleficent and Girl, Interrupted. She has also turned to directing in recent years including the war drama Unbroken last year. She's also a UN Ambassador for Refugees. But more than all these roles, Angelina is best known for being a mom. She adopted her first child Maddox back in 2002 and then went on to adopt Zahara in 2005. She met her husband Brad Pitt back in 2004 when they began filming Mr & Mrs Smith together. Since then, they had their own children Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne, and also adopted another kid named Pax! The busy mom has her hands full, but always looks well-dressed!

Victoria Beckham, 42
Victoria Beckham knows how to make a name for herself in the best possible ways. In the 90's, she was part of the mega girl group, Spice Girls. Then she married football superstar, David Beckham. Theirs is a 17-years-strong marriage that has produced 4 children and countless endorsements. Now, Victoria has made a stylish mark in the world of fashion design. She's the designer celebrities go to for classic, streamlined and tailored shapes.

Jennifer Garner, 44
Jennifer Garner has starred in many movies over the years including 13 going on 30, Pearl Harbor and Miracles from Heaven. As well as being an actress, she also owns a production company called Vandalia Films. She married fellow actor Ben Affleck back in 2005. They have gone on to have four children. Despite her and Ben announcing they were separating last year, they seem to still have a good relationship. They are often spotted on holidays together with the kids. She always looks great, even when the paparazzi catches her out and about dressed down and with no makeup. We can credit that to her newfound faith, simple beauty routine, and healthy lifestyle. You can find out more about her fitness regime on this site.
Jennifer Lopez, 47
She does not look 47 at all! Jennifer Lopez exploded into the music scene with Jenny From The Block back in the early 2000’s. She then went on to star in movies including Maid in Manhattan and Monster in Law. Aside from her entertainment career, she also has a great perfume and fashion line. Jennifer has eight-year-old twins with her ex-husband, Mark Anthony, and is rumored to be having another baby with her new boyfriend Casper Smart. She smashed those rumors, however, by posting this photo on her Instagram:

Sandra Bullock, 52
Sandra Bullock may be the oldest mom on our list but you'd never think it! Still active in her career, which spans decades starting with Demolition Man and Speed, then achieving American sweetheart status with Miss Congeniality and finally winning an Oscar for The Blind Side, Sandra is the highest paid actress in Hollywood today. Her bankability comes from the runaway success of her recent films Gravity and Minions. Sandra has shattered the belief that female-led movies don't sell. And she did all these while in her 40s! My super peg! Especially since Sandra is also a mommy. She adopted a baby boy Louis, and then just last year she also adopted three-year-old Laila!
These celebrity moms certainly lead busy and full lives! I also want to say that this list is definitely not a comprehensive one. I want to add these incredible moms: Gwyneth Paltrow, Gwen Stefani, Halle Berry, Tina Fey, Salma Hayek, and Nicole Kidman. Maybe in a Part 2! What do you think?
