Knocked Up Celebs

 As a former Playboy model, Kendra Wilkinson had to feel pretty confident about her body, what with the posing naked and all.  But she reveals that it took her awhile to get that confidence back after she had her baby, Hank Baskett IV.

Kendra, who was open about the fact that she struggled with body image issues after giving birth, tells OK that it took a full 18 months for her to all of her baby weight – and that only then did she start feeling good about herself again.

She shares that for her, keeping some pre-pregnancy clothes around for reference was helpful.

“I think that having a pair of jeans handy that you want to fit into is more of a realistic goal than looking at the scale… [and] feeling good about yourself is key.”

Really?  I can’t think of anything that makes me feel much worse than trying to get into a pair of jeans that don’t fit.   I certainly don’t feel “good” about that.

In the end, though, for Kendra, what helped take off those last pounds was the diet product Ab Cuts… not exactly the healthiest way to lose weight, or maintain weight loss.  Time will tell if it truly works for Kendra or not.

Many nursing moms will eventually taste their own breastmilk, just to see what it’s like.   (What IS this stuff my body’s producing?)  However, I’ve yet to hear of one who drank it straight from the source… until now.  Kendra Wilkinson recently (over)shared about why she gave herself a taste of the milk her boobies were making for son Hank Baskett, Jr.

“My first party after giving birth to Hank, I went to Eve nightclub in Vegas and my boobs started leaking. I couldn’t do anything so I breastfed myself. And it tasted sweet, too!”

Ummm… hasn’t girl ever heard of a breast pump?  Hand expressing your milk?  Don’t get me wrong, I’ve definitely been caught unprepared, but it never occurred to me to nurse myself.  Then again, Kendra is infinitely better equipped to perform such a feat than I, if you know what I mean.   Hey Kendra – save that for the pages of Playboy, woudja?

Kendra Wilkinson hit the blue carpet yesterday at the Poolside Bash at Wet Republic, MGM Grand Resort and Casino Las Vegas, Nevada. She must have enjoyed the break from her gig on Dancing With The Stars. At the event she talked about how the show is the best work out she could have:

“Dancing with the Stars is by far the hardest workout you could be doing, but at the same time I’m taking Ab Cuts and you get this. I mean I am just so happy with the size of my body right now, I’m so comfortable and I’m here to flaunt it.”

And what has been her favorite dance so far?

“Well, my favorite dance so far is the cha cha. It’s me, it’s fast, it’s a lot of booty. So I like the Latin dances for sure.”

I know that mine would be the Latin or Hip Hop ones. I’m partial to Hip Hop though.

Kendra Wilkinson made her Dancing With The Stars debut last night. She did the Cha-Cha with partner, Louis van Amstel. They ended up scoring 18 out of 30 points. Kendra explained to People her nerves were going crazy.

“In the cha cha you’re not supposed to bend your knees but I had to or I would have passed out. I was so nervous, I barely took a breath.”

And she also revealed that she has stage fright.

“I have a fear of the stage, a fear of the audience. [The bright lights of the ballroom] made me dizzy. But I pulled it out and the fact that Carrie Ann [Inaba] said I didn’t miss one step made me feel so good.”

I didn’t get a chance to see her on the show but I’m sure she did just great. I know it probably takes a lot of guts to go out and put yourself out that way.

Kendra Wilkinson was all dressed up for St. Patrick’s Day yesterday. She also looks great leaving practice for Dancing with the Stars in a studio in Los Angeles. Kendra’s partner on the show is Louis van Amstel. I’ve seen him in previous years and he seems like the strict and clean kind of dancer. I’m sure that Kendra is loving the dancing for her post baby body. It seems that some moms go on that show right after having kids and lose the rest of the baby weight.

Kendra Wilkinson attended a signing in Los Angeles yesterday for ‘Ab Cuts by Revolution‘ she is the spokesperson for them. She is looking great.  And it was interesting what I’m Not Obsessed said about her promoting the product and I have to agree. Did she use the product to lose the weight or are they taking advantage that she’s skinnier now?

There is also rumors of her maybe joining the cast of Dancing With the Stars? I wonder if that would boost ratings? I mean her personality is pretty loveable.

Kendra Wilkinson hosted her own Frightening Halloween Haunt at LAX Nightclub at The Luxor Resort and Casino in  Las Vegas last night. I love her costume, it looks super cute on her.

Recently, Kendra admitted that moving back to Los Angeles would bring her back to her best friend, Hugh Hefner.

“I can tell you that Hef is my closest friend. I’m not just saying that. He makes sure he writes to us every chance . . . He’s always thinking about us, and that’s a real friend.”

I bet she’s excited to see him and show off her baby, Hank Jr.

Kendra Wilkinson just posted this picture of her and her son, Hank Jr., on the basketball court. She wrote this about the picture:

I went n played some basketball with my future balla yesterday…he hit EVERY shot! Such a pro lolol.

I’ve been playing a lot of sports lately and I know basketball is high on that list.

Kendra Wilkinson hit the red carpet at the the 2010 ESPY Awards at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles last night. Kendra is looking great! And she even hammed it up to the cameras too.

It is being reported that Kendra and husband, Hank Baskett, hope to expand their family by one by June of next year.

“Yeah, we’re thinking about it. Maybe next summer!”

I know that the new baby would be just as cute as Hank Jr!

Kendra Wilkinson and husband, Hank Baskett, did a cute new photo shoot with their son, Hank Jr, 7 months. They are an adorable family together that’s for sure. And Kendra looks amazing!

In the interview included with the photoshoot in People magazine the couple talks about how much they have loved watching Hank Jr. grow up.

“It’s amazing … because we created life and now we get to see all the stages of life,” [Kendra says]. “It’s the most amazing, magical thing you could ever go through … seeing life start and then seeing every stage.”

Kendra says that he is a bundle full of energy.

“He has so much energy, he is ready to get up and go. Man, I know I have a lot of work ahead of me because he is one energized kid, let me tell you that!”

They are so fun at that age!
