My mom read French 'Elle' when I was a little girl, and so, when I was 15 or 16, I said, 'I want to work in fashion.'

My mom really inspired me. She has always taught me it's not about us, it's about what we can give back.
‐‐ Bailee Madison
My mom really instilled in me that I'm beautiful and I can do anything, and I echo that now with my own girls.
‐‐ Jennie Garth
My mom really let us do our own thing and play with different trends, and my sister was a little older, so she had all the beauty tricks. I would stuff things like rolled-up toilet paper into my hair to get volume, or do the reverse, and I'd lie on my back, and she'd use an actual iron to straighten it.
‐‐ Chrissy Teigen
My mom really raised me, so I took her name before I ever thought about having a career. It was for personal reasons. My birth name is actually Max Deitch.

My mom's a Christian and she loves me; that whole side of my family is Christian and I have no problem with it.
‐‐ Jake Shears
My mom's a concert pianist, so she started teaching me when I was around seven. When I was eight, I started writing my own songs, and kinda started putting piano and singing together. But I'm trained classically, which is a big influence on me, I think.
‐‐ Birdy
My mom's a psychologist, and I think that has influenced me on a personal level. Plus, I'm just generally interested in visualization and humanity, social activity and technology, and what happens in aggregate.
‐‐ Aaron Koblin
My mom's a screenwriter, and before that, she was an actress, and my father was an actor; my stepfather was a director, so I was on sets a lot as a kid. I loved the magic of the set. You walk in, and it's a living room, and you walk outside, and it's just a piece of wood held up by another piece of wood.
‐‐ Jennifer Jason Leigh
My mom's a secret Rastafarian.
‐‐ Jenna Bush
My mom's a social worker, and my dad works in non-profit organisations.
‐‐ Seth Rogen
My mom's a translator, my dad's a woodworker; that's the world I grew up in, that's the world I'm most comfortable in. The whole idea of Hollywood or any of that other stuff that unfortunately goes along with film, that wasn't part of my upbringing, thankfully.
‐‐ Tatiana Maslany
My mom's always been a good cook, so I took a lot of stuff from her, but most of the stuff I took from Emeril or Bobby Flay right off the TV and make it. I just loved to cook, so it just became a thing. It's a release. Even if I'm alone, I'll cook a full meal, maybe even a two-course meal, just because I love to cook. It's my secret love!

My mom's an angel, bless her heart, for everything I put her through.

‐‐ Solange Knowles
My mom's Brazilian, so she and I definitely grew up with different perspectives. I was born in America, and she's from Brazil, so we have different ways of doing things. There's a bit of culture clash there.
‐‐ Maiara Walsh
My mom's brother was gay, and he actually passed away from AIDS when I was 13. He was quite a character, but he also worked at the electrical plant, so he was this complicated guy with a big laugh who would wear a trucker hat and do impressions. He was gay, but to me, Uncle Alan was just the funniest person in the world.
‐‐ Casey Wilson
My mom's collard greens. No one else in the world can make them like hers. I'm not just saying that because she's my mom. She's got some Mississippi secret. I could seriously eat them every day.
‐‐ Santigold
My mom's family is Russian Jewish, and my dad's Puerto Rico Catholic, so it's kind of a weird mix.

‐‐ Chloe Grace Moretz
My mom's the strongest, boldest woman I know.
‐‐ Nikki Reed
My mom's whole side of the family, they're all Packers fans. My mom's a Bears fan. My stepdad is a Vikings guy. So that gets ugly. My mom sits upstairs watching the Bears game; he sits in the basement. They can't watch it together. Football's a violent anger in our family dynamic.
‐‐ Ashton Kutcher
My mom said, 'Don't get married. You're too young. Go out there and experience what life has to offer.' And I did.
‐‐ Emmitt Smith
My mom said my whole childhood... was stop and go.

‐‐ Aaron Douglas
My mom says: 'Why aren't you a doctor?' and I'm like, 'I am a doctor!' and she's all, 'No, I mean a real doctor.' She reads my books, but she says they give her a headache.
‐‐ Brian Greene
My mom sees her sons as baby boys. Well, I stopped being her baby boy a long time ago.
‐‐ Bryant Gumbel
My mom sent me money for a car, but the cops impounded it because I had no insurance.
‐‐ Martin Henderson
My mom sent me to regular high school because she wanted me to have that experience and not say that I missed out, but I didn't like it at all. I'm more comfortable in the world that I'm in, I grew up in it so when I get around normal kids in regular high school I don't know what to do. I feel more secure in an adult environment.
‐‐ Alexa Vega
My mom set up relief programs in third world countries. We would do things like go to Bogota with her instead of summer camp.
‐‐ Clark Johnson
My mom, she is the most unbelievable mom that you could ever have in your entire life and she's always with me on everything. The most I've ever been away from her is two days. I love her more than anybody could ever know.
