one of the best accomplishments of every mom is to produce a child that turns out to be an epitome of their league… not necessarily a perfect one because no one is even if your son is a priest.
i got the list of the worthy ones… being picky and meticulous, my standard is quite lofty and discriminating. well, i wont be a fan of an arrogant and promiscuous one.
Amelie Menéndez.. mother of the actor Andy Garcia who is married for 27 years, respectable actor, maintained a clean reputation in spite of the tempestuous and liberated world of showbiz.
Teri Johnson… mother of the title holder in gymnastics Shaun Johnson. at seventeen, she possesses the quality of a wholesome youth…every mother would take pride of having a daughter like that. one of the reasons i look forward to watch “Dancing with Stars” is her… she got this light aura, irregardless if she dances a provocative salsa or emotional argentine tango. i’ve never heard any abuse with drugs nor alcohol which are common with most of the young stars nowadays.
Tina Beyince Knowles… mother of Beyonce Knowles. no one can dispute that she’s a great singer and performer that even Etta James should agree with this fact… her crude reaction when Beyonce sang in the inauguration of President Barack Obama was a sure sign of green-eyed monster and fire hell of insecurity… just move over Etta girl! you had your time and let other shine!… i never seen a single feather of arrogance with Beyonce nor sleazy reputation.
Teri Shields… mother of Brooke Shields, the real beauty and brain that not all women can claim… a graduate of Princeton University. education is never been a priority with most of the stars… well! earning millions at a young age, why would they care!… such a dumb excuse isn’t it, knowledge paves way to where millions will never lead you and that’s my stand. Brooke was a supermodel and is a brilliant actress who balance family life with a low profile husband… she deserves every bit of her fame.
Caroline Smith… mother of Will Smith. who wouldn’t know the “fresh prince” of bel-air?… the actor that is without a doubt so comfortable with his own skin. exuding with confidence and talent yet never showed a hint of arrogance. whenever i would see his interviews, i can’t help but admire how he speaks highly and proudly of his wife Jada. his versatile, light personality and of course a very effective actor are the very reasons why his mom should be proud of.
Mary Steep… mother of Meryl Streep who had her M.F.A. in Yale. from drama, musical, farcical to tyrant boss roles, name it and she delivered all. she possesses a finesse, confidence and sharp qualities that earns her elite stature as a movie star. her capacity to live her decent private life in spite being big in her field is hell of a job. i just love her in The Devil Wears Prada!
i’m not yet a mom but hoping to be one…one thing is for sure though that my child does not need to be a movie star for me to call her/him my star …. but hey! i wouldn’t mind if my child becomes one for as long as she’s got the qualities in my stars list, wouldn’t you too?!
