Hot Mama!
Posted on Wed Jul 11, 2007 01:30 PM PDT


Looking at these adorable pix of Gwen Stefani showing off her sexy abs on the beach with little Kingston, I can't believe this woman is 38 years old! She's gotta be the coolest mom on the planet - wonder if Kingston's gonna have to share her any time soon?
From the look of her flat stomach, I think Kingston's gonna have her to himself for at least another nine months!
I'm digging her long skirt - is that her own design?
MILF!

Yeah, people should be 25, like Britney Spears, when they have children.
God are you stupid. This is 2007 you patehtic asshole. Women can have babies whenever they want!
Go back to the dark ages, you twat.
Every mom could look like that if they could afford their own personal trainer.
She is the hottest MILF ever!!!! Too bad her solo career has put out such terrible music. Bring back NO DOUBT!!!!!
She had implants after she gave birth. Even if she was nursing her breasts wouldn't be that big.
Dang! Gen looks great! I swear, when I have kids, I'm keeping my body FANTASTIC just like Gwen lol! I already told my sweetie that when I decide to get pregnant, Im going to have a budget for a personal trainer, nutritionist, and the right foods to keep me "tight and ight" haha! I'm so vain, I know:) But I'm a Libra( I think Gwen is too) and I always keep my looks up...So I wont be falling apart just because I have a baby.....When I have a baby that is.

We seen your belly button enough, bitch.
Put a shirt on for fucks sake.
2:29 - POST ENOUGH - GEEZ. As for you morons who think that a 38-year old woman can't have breasts like that - get a frickin' life - if you work at it, your breasts can stay up (I'm over 40 and mine look like that - and I've had a child!) Your body changes so dramatically when you have a baby, things shift around - it's completely natural for her boobs to look so good - she is wearing support people - unlike all of these 20-somethings running around (aka Britney) - their boobs are the ones that are going to look hideous when they hit Gwen's age - if you don't hold-em up - they will go down!
2:26... Its not about being in the dark ages its about being SELFLESS!!! How selfish to be so old and dried out when your kids have there kids. Let me guess... you are an old mom who is now regretting it? everyone I know who waited to have kids have wished they would have had kids younger so that they could be around longer!!!

yeah! she looks great, and we are waiting for her this friday 13 in MONTERREY MEXICO!!!! Im sure it´s gonna be a GREAT concert!!! And Plastilina Mosh rocks!!!
LAMB!!
2:43PM
Old and dried out? Old mom who is now regretting it? Not even a mom, asshole.
Wow, you are one fucked up little cunt. Older moms are more patient and more self-less. They've usually had their careers so they dedicate more time to nurturing their children. I just hope to God you CAN'T have kids.
2:49PM
You wouldn't make a good mom. You're way to fucking self-absorbed.
2:43PM
You sound REALLY bitter. YOU must have had OLD parents. Don't take it out on everyone else, bitch.
Get therapy. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Loser.
To the person that thinks 38 is too old to have kids..60 is the new 40 if you didn't know..people are taking better care of themselves these days, and Gwen is probably healthier and in better shape to care for a child well into her 60's than 1/2 the population of junk food eating, overweight, cigarette smoking 25 year old mom's out there in our country. At least she has the health AND means to care for her child! You should be complaining about all of the unhealthy welfare moms out there..they are the ones that are selfish, and that should not be reproducing!!!! They are the ones feeding their kid'd crappy food, and living unstimulating lives!
38 is old? you are retarded !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2:57 nope your wrong. I just think that it is mean. go ahead...be 45 when you have a baby. your kids will be so angry with you for doing that when you die when they are 30!!!

What makes you think that a healthy person is going to die at the age of 68, you f@$%&&& idiot! Someone that takes good care of their health will most likely live to be in their 90's...what about the people who have kids when they are 25 that die at the age of 40 because they are unhealthy? What about the people who have kids that feed them junk food, and never get outside with them, etc ..their kids will most likely not live to see their parents turn 60 anyway!
See Britney? These are what mommy abs look like!
Listen i happen to think that 38 is too old to have children. 38 is not old. Everyone has a right to their opinion. This is mine. No need to be nasty.
yeah she should cover up because she's 38 and go into hiding. you people are retarded.
3:09..what do you think is wrong with having a kid at 38? None of your earlier arguements hold up..if you had something concrete to back it up..then maybe someone would value your opinion!
P.S. 3:09..People that have opionions without facts to base them on are usually uneducated and naive
P.S. 3:09..People that have opionions without facts to base them on are usually uneducated , naive and ignorant!

38 is not too old to have a child you moron. and furthermore, you need to do the math! if she's 38, she's not going to be in her 60's when he graduates, unless you're referring to graduating from COLLEGE.
it's people like you that make the world a horrible place. you talk about how parents are going to die in their 60's and the child will resent them? i don't know of a single person whose parents had them later in life that resents their parents for that decision. people die at all ages: teens, 20s, 30s, 40s, etc. someone having a child in their 30s is no more to die early than someone who gives birth as a teen! your arguments don't hold up and you're only making yourself look like a moron. i would rather see parents giving birth in their 30s and 40s than watching all of these idiotic teens and 20-somethings running around getting knocked up by their "fly-by-night" boyfriends and not having any idea of how to raise a child AND balance their ever-so-important clubbing and partying lifestyle.
you're making everyone on this site sick. go the heck away and STAY away.
Yeah Kristen!! I agree with you! That moron that thinks 38 is too old to have kids makes me sick too..I can't stand people who have opinions with no facts to back them up....
wow, getting criticized for finding love, getting married, enjoying being married and then having a baby?!? what the hell is wrong with this world when you'd rather see a 20 year old get knocked up and either "have" to get married or just live with his or her baby mama or baby daddy. that's right, criticize gwen & gavin for doing it the old fashioned way! get a grip on reality!
3:30 Kristen,
She said it best***** i too find it ridiculous that the idiot earlier would think having kids at older ages horrible, when they are probably being brought into a much more stable and supportive life, where as the dumb 19 and 20 year olds who get married probably still live with their parents and are barely starting to support themselves, let alone a baby!! EDUCATE YOURSELF before u make such ignorant statements! It isnt even a valid opinion its just stupid.
PUT A HAT ON YOUR KID YOU DUMB BITCH!!!
Gwen is a hard core bith and makes her men practice ANAL SEX. She is not the nice MOM she portrays to the press.
I'm 31 and I'm almost ready to have kids. With age comes patience and selflessness. In your 20s one is still so focused on enjoying life and finding yourself - those are the kids that I think suffer. I am in NO WAY saying having kids in your 20s is wrong - I just think w/age comes a certain maturity. Please do not post arguments unless you're over 30 and can understand where my opinion comes from...
4:20..Where do you get your information?? I can't stand people who talk shit with nothing to base their drivel on! And what does what she does, if she does it, with her husband have to do with being a good mom????
She used to date a member of the Mighty Boss Tones..he told all about the Gwen
Gwen is a wonderful mom she waited when she was mature enough to be a mom which is a good thing.Her son is cute. Britney on the other hand is young to be a mom and very immature.When she was married she acted like a good mom ,but as soon as she divorce she divorce her kids too. she is going through a lot right now i feel for her poor sons.She refuse to get help by anyone that including her own mom all young mom need help.
Used to date? God..who cares what she did years ago...if we based all of our opinions on what people did years ago..then almost everyone would be considered a bad mom! How does any of what you said have to do with the kind of mom she is now? Or , for that matter, what she does in her current relationship? Maybe the guy form the bosstones was an asshole!!
well my dad died when i was only 27 and my mom and dad had me when they were very young. My dad just happened to die young. Everyone's situation is different. And I am 36 now and i would love to have another kid but we have been trying for 4 years now and no luck. SOME people CAN'T have kids so easily and it takes years so shut up you asshole.
38's not too old for SOME people to have kids I guess, but ask any doctor, doesn't matter how long ppl live now, over 35 is a high risk pregnancy. Gwen's certainly healthy, too bad her music sucks though. If i hear wind it up one more time I may give birth, and i'm not even pregnant.
Kingston is the cutiest baby ever!!
She did not have breast implants. I have seen her in person recently....it's called a Wonderbra dumbass!
To 4:52 I was told all my life that I was sterile and and my husband was also told that he became sterile after an old football injury years ago. So who do you think had a baby at age 40 and 44? You never know..... 20 years of no birth control and then a big fat surprise.
Self centered ego maniac who can't pass a mirror!
How many FAMOUS singers take it up the ass.....
Congratulations 7:11 on your suprise baby. I think that is wonderful! :o)
If this is a boob job, then she needs to get a refund. At most, she is a B cup in these pictures. Sorry about the mispell above for 7:11. Congratulations on your Surprise Baby! :o)
she's on steroids. oops, did i say that out loud?
great bod... but did anyone notice the liposcars?
You dumb idiot her boobs are not fake retard! if you were smart enough then you would know that womans boobs get bigger when they have babies you dumb ass..
38 is still young to have kids you moron. just cause you can't have kids stupid ass
Gosh, she is so beautiful!! she IS a HOT MAMA!! and a very very nice person may i add! never lets a fan down
http://www.kicks.se/upload/modelsearch/campaign.html#browse/1359
She is only 38 - that is not old. My mother was 42 when she had me! Women can have babies whenever they want. Gwen looks fab. I wish I had her body!

I cannot believe how totally rude you people are to each other. Then again, I guess it's easy to say rude things when you aren't face to face, isn't it? People are entitled to their own opinions, regardless of whether you agree with them, and there's no need to make it a personal attack.
As far as how old you should be to have kids... my parents were in the 40's when I was born, and I lost both of them at early ages, when they were in their 60's. Do I wish I had them longer? Of course. Do I resent them for having me that late in life? Absolutely not! I treasure the time I had with them. Does that mean that I think it's OK for people in their 50's and 60's to start having families? NO! Drives me nuts... I personally think it's very selfish. However, every situation is different. I try not to be too quick to judge people, because I know what a joy it is to have kids, having 3 myself.
BTW, I think Gwen looks awesome! I'd love to have her body!
As far as
The bitch who said 38 was too old to have kids is obviously extremely immature. She probably got knocked up when she was 14, has 4 kids by different fathers, is on welfare, is a miserable failure in life and is jealous of the successful mature parents she sees who have beautiful houses, cars and children -- people who have stable lives and bright futures.
It's amazing to me that here we have Gwen Stefani, who's not in the celeb rags for doing drugs, having orgies, getting hammered, dancing on tables, spending every night in a club, dumping her kids on a nanny, having babies with a guy she's dated for 6 months, or otherwise acting like the modern starlet... But for taking her kid to the beach, like a normal parent. And people STILL find a reason to be critical of her.
If the worst thing somebody can say about a celebrity is that at 37 she had a baby and that's too old, then I think we need more of these "horrible female celebrities" who're bad people for having babies in their mid-30s. God knows it's nicer to see pictures of awful-mom Gwen having one-on-one time with her son at the beach, then it is to see Lindsey passed out in a drug-induced stupor, Britney's crotch, Paris's sex video, etc etc.
Amen to that Jeri!
Thanks Lori. I went to Gwen's concert in Boston in May, and she mentioned Kingston dozens of times. Every picture of Gwen is with Kingston on her hip. Every interview she does, she brags on him. Hell, even in her No Doubt albums she sang about how she can't wait to be a Mom, and that was years before Kingston came along. She's obviously a devoted mom, no matter what her age is. Certainly much more encouraging than presumably "correct aged" mothers like Britney, who hasn't been photographed or been seen with her kids in... How long?
Gwen never had those boobs back in the day and she is thinner then, then so did she have a boob job.. just a small one.
Go and check out Gwen pictures from the no doubt time and then before she got pregnant.. you will see she was flatter then a pancake!
Anyway she looks great with them and I cant believe how tight her stomach is.. good on her!
I love Gwen. So I have nothing bad to say about her, but I would like to see my child sometimes ya know?
She HAS had implants.
Pregnancy does cause the breasts to temporarily enlarge but the return to normal.
Believe me, if increased breast size (like Gwens) was a real result of pregnancy, women every where would get pregnant for that reason alone!
When did Gwen get boobs? They certainly are much much much much bigger then she ever has had! And those are not the result of having a baby, those are implants for sure....just not sure when she bought them!
Gwen has left it late to have her first in my opinion - why did she do that when she's been with Gavin for years?
Who knows... Who cares? Maybe Gavin didn't want a child earlier. Maybe she wanted to have a solo career before she had kids. Maybe she's been trying to get pregnant for 10 years and never had any success. Maybe she had fertility issues, maybe he had fertility issues. Maybe she wanted to buy a monkey-powered car that could drive her to the moon before trying to have a baby. Who knows? Who cares?
The woman is 37, for crying out loud. Not 47. And mid 30s isn't old, not by a longshot. If you work out the timeline, she got pregnant at 35, had a baby at 36, and now she's 37 and has a one year old. What's so bad about that? When Kingston is 18, she'll be 54, she'll be 58 when/if he graduates college. Even that's not prehistoric, that's fairly typical.
Even if she was 58 when she had her first baby, who cares? She can afford to have kids, she obviously loves kids, she's obviously at the least a fairly typical mom, at best mom-of-the-year next to other mother celebreties, so really, what is the fuss?
These women who are posting about Gwen's age are welfare mothers who had illegitimate brats at 14 and have horrible lives. They are just jealous of successful mature women who wait to have children.
Tough shit welfare bitches. Maybe if you'd kept your panties on you wouldn't have got knocked up and you wouldn't be trailer trash poor now!!!!!
i dont think the age thing is an issue,you have children when you are ready not when society dictates.
i think gwen looks a little too thin in recent pictures to be honest,its not a healthy look but its her body so its up to her what she does with it.Kingston is gorgeous but i find it odd that people comment on what sort of mothers celebs are because you dont even know them-she might be great or she might be awful in reality who knows?
i have to say i think most of the nasty comments about her looks are probabally down to jealousy! she does look good,bit ill very fake but just the sort of woman a bloke would fancy,i think theres a few jealous wives or girlfriends out there.
Joe Hawkins 10:10 - Thats called a 'C-section' scar. She has never had lipo.
And to 5:50 - exactly, these people are blatantly jelous of Gwen and posting nasty comments makes them feel good about themselves.
i no gavin very well we wer in skool 2gether and apparently gwen is a reall sex kitten! she makes up all these positions and wants sex all the time!
