When I think of celebrity moms….I’ll be honest, I think of nanny’s, fancy clothes, breakfasts made by chefs…I have a really hard time wrapping my brain around a famous person that actually does it all…works hard, cleans, takes care of her kids, screws up, and all the “other” stuff that comes with being a mom.
Well, Jo Dee Messina is opening the door WIDE open, sharing her life as a working mom. True, she doesn’t go to a 9-5 job, but by the looks of things on her blog The Fumbling Mom, her life isn’t much different from the rest of ours. She feels fat, throws together crazy breakfasts, and even forgets she’s boiling eggs on the stove, answering the life long questions what happens when you forget an egg is boiling on the stove??
Jo Dee Messina has just announced she’ll return with a new single in early 2012. The new song (whose title will be revealed early in the new year) showcases Messina’s commanding vocal prowess which has earned her nine #1 country singles, over five million records sold, two Grammy nominations and various CMA and ACM awards throughout her 15-plus year career. Messina will also be on the road in 2012 (dates TBA).
In advance of her new music release, Messina will be featured in an upcoming episode of HGTV’s “Celebrity Holiday Homes” airing Sunday, December 18 at 8pm ET/PT. Also featured on the episode are actors Wayne Brady and Alison Sweeney. Designer Matthew Haly transformed Messina’s Nashville home with embellished natural materials, such as wood, tree branches and berries.
”It was amazing to have HGTV come in the house to decorate,” Messina explains. “I guess living in my home and seeing it everyday, I overlook decorating possibilities. I was blown away by what they came and did to the house. It was just, so beautiful.”
Messina will also perform her annual “Christmas In The Music Room” show Tuesday, December 20 at Nashville’s Opryland Hotel, where she’ll celebrate the season with songs, stories and audience participation.
