If you’re the parent of a school-aged child, there will inevitably come a moment when they ask for help with a school project — bonus points if this happens the night before said project is due.

Do you zoom off to the crafts store in search of supplies? Give them a lecture about responsibility? Roll up your sleeves and grab a Pritt stick? Sigh dramatically and pour yourself a glass of wine?

The funny parents of Twitter (formerly X) have been there, done that and are here to tell you about it. Read the hilarity below:

Hailey Bieber Reveals Her Biggest Pregnancy Craving: ‘You’re Not Allowed To Judge’

While that recipe might turn some stomachs, a 2014 study in the Frontiers in Psychology journal concluded that more than half of all pregnant women experience cravings for specific foods, due to rapid hormonal changes or the additional blood production during pregnancy.

Still, biological explanation or no, some fans couldn’t bring themselves to approve of Hailey’s meal.

“Hailey is so pregnant. Egg salad on a pickle with hot sauce. Girllllll,” wrote one user on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. Another commented: “‘Trying hailey bieber’s egg salad on top of pickle’ will soon be a trend on tiktok.”

“This will be the next important project for him. He’s so excited to raise his baby. They have a name that they think is perfect … They can’t wait.”

Ryan Gosling Gets Candid About How Being A Dad Has Affected Which Roles He Says Yes To

Ryan Gosling has claimed that he always has his family in mind when selecting roles these days.

The three-time Oscar nominee is a dad to two daughters, nine-year-old Esmeralda Amada and eight-year-old Amanda Lee, who he shares with his long-term partner Eva Mendes.

While Ryan has plenty of hard-hitting roles in his back catalogue, including the neo-Nazi drama The Believer and the violent action drama Drive, he’s said that more recently, he’s leaning towards lighter projects, so he can be more present with his family after a day’s shooting is over.

“I don’t really take roles that are going to put me in some kind of dark place,” he told WSJ magazine.

“This moment is what I feel like trying to read the room at home and feel like what is going to be best for all of us. The decisions I make, I make them with Eva and we make them with our family in mind first.”

Ryan claimed this shift began with the musical La La Land, with subsequent projects including the Neil Armstrong biopic First Man, sci-fi sequel Blade Runner 2049 and, of course, Greta Gerwig’s hit Barbie movie.

“It was just sort of like, ‘oh, [La La Land] will be fun for them, too, because even though they’re not coming to set, we’re practicing piano every day or we’re dancing or we’re singing’,” he explained.

“Their interest in Barbie and their disinterest in Ken was an inspiration […] they were already making little movies about their Barbies on the iPad when it happened, so the fact that I was going off to work to make one too, we just felt like we were aligned.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Ryan spoke about performing a stunt in his new comedy The Fall Guy, when he was suddenly hit with a fear of heights.

“I think it’s happened when I had kids – really, you start to be way more conscious of everything you do and everything you’ve ever done and everything you will do if you get a chance to do it,” he added.

Before Barbie’s release, Ryan made no secret of the fact that his daughters’ own indifference towards Ken led to him saying yes to the Barbie film.

He told The Tonight Show: “I walk out in the backyard [after getting the offer] and, do you know where I found Ken. Face down in the mud next to a squished lemon.

“I texted [the photo] to Greta and said, ‘I shall be your Ken, for this story must be told’.”

Rihanna Shares The 1 Thing That Helped Her Personal ‘Rediscovery’ After Having Children

Rihanna didn’t have to find love in a hopeless place; instead she found it in her very own closet after adjusting to motherhood.

While speaking with BBC News at the Wednesday launch party of her collaboration with Puma in London, the singer explained how she went through somewhat of a fashion metamorphosis following the birth of her two young sons, RZA and Riot.

“With the first pregnancy, I feel like I was able to wear heels all the way through,” she recalled.

“But then with the second pregnancy, you have a toddler, a belly, it’s winter, you have a coat, a baby bag. You’re like, heels? Hmm, maybe not. That’s why I got a little bit more creative with my comfortable style.”

The Fenty Beauty mogul shared her feelings that she got “too comfortable” in her second pregnancy, with Riot.

“And then I got too comfortable after I had my second kid and I just was in robes, PJs, sweats. And now I’m playing again. Now I’m having fun with my clothes,” she said.

Rihanna and her partner, A$AP Rocky, welcomed their first son, RZA, in May 2022. The “Diamonds” crooner gave birth to Riot in August 2023.

She said getting back to her fashionista vibes in public again has given her “a rediscovery”.

Now that she’s gotten the hang of motherhood, she said, she’s able to “allow myself that space mentally to approach my closet and create stuff”.

“After a while when you have kids, you think [fashion] is the dumbest… it really is the least important thing,” Rihanna explained. “But it does something for you as a woman, and as a mum, that’s important for us.”

Rihanna notably broke the internet with her stylish, belly-baring maternity ensembles, so it’s totally on-brand that she explained to BBC News why she “refused to buy maternity clothes.”

“I approached it like everything else I approach in fashion,” she said. “I just want to do things my way. I just want to always stitch it up and put my own twist on it.”

“But I just refused to buy maternity clothes, really and truly. I was like, whatever fits was what’s going to work. And that made me challenge myself to get clever with style,” the singer added.

Henry Cavill has shared that he is set to become a father.

On Monday evening, Henry confirmed to Access Hollywood that his girlfriend of three years, Hollywood exec Natalie Viscuso, is pregnant with the couple’s third child.

“I’m very excited about it,” the British actor revealed. “Natalie and I are both very excited. I’m sure you’ll see much more of that.”

Asked whether seeing Henry Golding, The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare, as a parent inspired him to become a dad, the former Superman star insisted: “I mean, he didn’t inspire me to do that. My parents did.”

Henry and Natalie first announced they were an item in an Instagram post back in April 2021.

“This is me looking quietly confident shortly before my beautiful and brilliant love, Natalie, destroys me at chess,” he wrote at the time, alongside a photo of the pair sitting at a chessboard.

A few months later, they made their first public appearance together at the premiere of Henry’s film Enola Holmes 2.

Per Elle, Natalie previously worked at Legendary Entertainment, the company which helped produce Enola Holmes, as well as Man Of Steel, another of Henry’s films.

Back in 2018, Henry said that it was his “biggest dream in life” to start a family.

A year earlier, he told Men’s Health magazine that his fitness was important to him as he wanted to be an active father in the future.

“If I ever have kids one day, I want to be the dad who’s running round after them,” he said, adding: “I want to be a fit and healthy dad, not hobbling round like, ‘OK, I’m just going to catch a breather’.”
