The morning that Angelina Jolie‘s brave New York Times op-ed about her double mastectomy broke, I was in bed. In the wee early morning hours, I checked my phone to see an e-mail from Eve Vawter about the editorial. And just as I was starting to cognitively put “Angelina Jolie” and “breast cancer” together in my head, my first thought was “how did she keep this a secret?” Apparently even her on-again off-again estranged papa Jon Voight had the same question.

Shanna Moakler isn’t the first mother to encounter a sexualizing hurdle when contemplating whether to breastfeed.

Last night at the 92Y Tribeca, Isabella Rossellini previewed one of her nine short films entitled “Mammas,” a contemplation of motherhood that pivots towards the animal kingdom. But by juxtaposing animal behavior with that of human mothers, Isabella meditates on many of the complex threads of motherhood. Specifically, the complex and loaded terrain of “maternal instinct.”

After hiding from the press for handful of days following her arrest/DUI accompaniment, Reese Witherspoon has consented to talking about drunkenly harassing a cop. The mother of three put on a brave smiley face — with a twinge of Tracy Flick if you ask me — and addressed what went on that night. At least what she could could remember of it.
