Knocked Up Celebs

Naomi Watts is a busy mom to Sasha, 2, and Sammy, 1, and holds down a career at the same time. She is out of the public eye most times and tries to live her life the best she can. She recently talked to the New York Daily News about how being a mom in this day and time is something else and how she does manage to juggle it all. Here are the highlights:

On juggling it all: “I see myself as any other woman,” she said recently. “Every day I’m struggling to get it right, be a good mother and have time for my relationship with Liev. I’m not sure whether I’m doing any of it right, but I’ve finally got to the age where at least I know that I’m just doing my best.”

On her acting start: “I did loads of commercials before I started acting. You name it, from cereal to Tampax to every kind of embarrassing thing.”

On wanting to give up: “I’d been slogging away in Hollywood for five years, getting nowhere. At castings, I was constantly told I wasn’t talented enough, I wasn’t right, I wasn’t beautiful enough, I was nowhere near sexy enough. … I thought about quitting acting and took other jobs — in restaurants, on magazines — but nothing gave me the same feeling. Nicole actually gave me hope. She’d tell me that it would only take one film, one casting and everything would change.”
