Kelly Clarkson shares the hack she uses to get her 9-year-old son to brush his teeth
During a conversation with actress Jessica Biel, Kelly Clarkson is sharing the hack she uses to encourage her 9-year-old son Remington to brush his teeth. During the May 29 episode of 'The Kelly Clarkson Show,' Clarkson told Biel there is one daily hygiene task that her son is not a fan of completing. And that's brushing his teeth. 'He's gonna hate me saying this. I don't care because maybe it will shame him into doing it, but he just refuses to brush his teeth, like it's like a thing,' Clarkson explained. 'And so finally, I was like, 'Hey, let's make a fun thing of it.'' That's when the mom of two encouraged Remy to brush his teeth in the shower. 'I was in the shower, I'm like, 'Just take your toothbrush and your toothpaste in the shower. You can be messy,'' Clarkson said, because what 9-year-old boy doesn't like to be messy. 'So that's what I got him into in the shower,' Clarkson told Biel, who has admitted that she often eats in the shower. 'So now he's brushing his teeth!' Clarkson admitted that she doesn't 'know what it is about boys' when it comes to hygiene. As for her 10-year-old daughter, River Rose, Clarkson said she never had an issue with getting her to partake in good dental care. 'My girl is always like, 'Oh yeah, of course, I did that.' Like, I'm an idiot that I asked her,' the mom said. 'And then my son, he's just like, 'Yeah, I totally did.' And I'm like, 'You're lying. Let me smell your breath.'' But if you asked Biel, it's just being smart with your time, multitasking in the shower. 'I know this sounds disgusting,' the actress said, admitting she finds it disgusting as well, but 'this is called 'trying to get to drop-off on time' and just needing to do everything at once, because I didn't wake up early enough or something happened.' However, she does have a line. Biel said that while she often drinks her coffee in the shower, 'I don't really do sandwiches.' 'Bread is not my thing in the shower,' she continued, neither is steak, but she will eat yogurt or cereal.

Elizabeth Banks Reveals She Once Used To Clean Toilets As Chambermaid
Last Updated: Elizabeth Banks shared that she worked as a waitress and chambermaid before finding fame. Elizabeth Banks opened up about her humble beginnings and the unconventional jobs she held before breaking into Hollywood and achieving fame as an actress. During an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, the Hunger Games star shared candid memories of working as a waitress and later as a chambermaid in a bed and breakfast—where she was responsible for cleaning toilets. According to Banks, the experience, though deeply unpleasant, taught her resilience and prepared her for anything life might throw her way. Reflecting on that period, she said, 'Kelly, I can go anywhere. It's not glamorous, this life you lead. You end up going a lot of crazy places and I'm like, 'I've been worse.'" She described the job of cleaning up after strangers as both 'shocking" and 'traumatising," yet ultimately character-building. Banks also used the moment to offer some advice to viewers based on her past experience in hospitality. Speaking directly to hotel guests and travellers, she urged, 'I just have some advice for people who stay in hotels, motels, bed and breakfasts, whatever. Please stop flushing things other than pee down toilets. Like the amount of tampons I had to dig out of toilets as a 17-year-old is shocking to me." In a recent interview with People magazine, the Charlie's Angels actor spoke about her two sons, ages 14 and 12, whom she shares with husband Max Handelman. Despite her success in the entertainment industry, Banks revealed that her children have shown no desire to follow in her footsteps—at least for now. 'If my kids decide to get into acting, which they have currently no interest in, then I would be thrilled to ever do anything with them if they would deign to hang out with me," she said. With a laugh, she added, 'It's unlikely. In fact, it would have to be a paying job for them to actually want to hang out with me." Elizabeth Banks was last seen in the thriller limited series The Better Sister alongside Jessica Biel. Based on the novel by Alafair Burke, the series has been adapted for the screen by Olivia Milch and Regina Corrado. The gripping story kicks off when a woman comes home only to discover her husband has been murdered in the living room. The show premiered on Amazon Prime Video on May 29.

Kelly Clarkson's son hates brushing his teeth
Kelly Clarkson's nine-year-old son "refuses to brush his teeth". The 43-year-old pop star - who has son Remy and daughter River, 10, with ex-husband Brandon Blackstock - has found an unusual way to encourage her son to embrace dental hygiene. She said on 'The Kelly Clarkson Show': "I have a boy and a girl. And my boy and I have a real hard time. He's gonna hate me saying this, I don't care, because maybe it'll shame him into doing it. But he just refuses to brush his teeth." Despite this, Kelly has found an innovative way to get Remy to brush his teeth. She shared: "It's like a thing, and so finally, I was like, 'Hey, let's make a fun thing of it.' So I was in the shower, I'm like, 'Just take your toothbrush and your toothpaste in the shower. You can be messy. You can do whatever'. "So that works. So now he's brushing his teeth." Kelly explained that her son and daughter have very different attitudes. She said: "I don't know what it's about boys. They don't wanna brush. "My girl is always like, 'Oh yeah, of course, I did that.' Like I'm an idiot that I asked her. And then my son, he's just like, 'Yeah, I totally did.' And I'm like, 'You're lying. Let me smell your breath.'" Meanwhile, Kelly previously admitted to suffering from so-called mom guilt. The chart-topping star revealed that she struggled to find a healthy balance between her work and her family life. Kelly - who was married to Brandon between 2013 and 2022 - told Redbook magazine in 2016: "If you're a mom, you want to be with your kid every day. You don't want to miss a moment, you want her to need you and want you and not want somebody else." Despite this, Kelly still loves the challenges of motherhood. The singer shared: "There are days where I cry and I'm like, 'I don't know if I can handle all this!' or get it all done. But at the end of the day, 99 percent of the time, it's awesome and it's worth it, and that's what I say to myself."
