Olivia Munn reveals the popular children's show she won't let her kids watch
Mom-of-two Olivia Munn has revealed the popular children's show she won't let her kids watch because she just might go 'crazy.'
Ms. Rachel and her Broadway star husband, Aron Accurso produce content that help their young audience with pronunciation and language skills via her Songs for Littles YouTube page.
Despite the show being perfect for youngsters, Olivia - who shares son Malcolm, three, and daughter Méi, eight months, with her husband John Mulaney - just can't bring herself to introduce the program to her children.
'I know kids love [Ms. Rachel], but the thing is, if I can't watch it, I'm not going to spend the rest of my life going crazy,' she told People. 'These kid shows drive me crazy.'
But that isn't the only kid-friendly show Olivia has an axe to grind with.
'Malcolm asked for Blue's Clues [recently], and I don't know who showed him Blue's Clues, but they are on my s*** list now,' she said. 'I said, "Hell no. Not in my house."'
Thanks to her husband, their son is also watching another show Olivia has no interest in - the Spider-Man cartoons.
'John got him into the Spider-Man cartoons, which is not interesting to me. I put on Tom Holland's Spider-Man: Homecoming and was like, "If you want to watch the real-life ones, then we can watch that." It might be a little too old for him, but I can't take the cartoons,"' she said.
However, there is one Munn-approved children's show.
The star praised the PBS show Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood as a 'great program', one which they had their son watch in preparation for the arrival of his baby sister, who was born via surrogate.
'Daniel Tiger has a little sister, and we'd tell him, "There's a baby sister coming,"' she explained.
Olivia and John began dating in 2021 before tying the knot over the summer in an intimate ceremony.
They announced that she was pregnant with their first child in September, amid a romance that went public on the heels of his split from his wife Anna Marie Tendler.
The lovebirds welcomed their son Malcolm the day before Thanksgiving, after a whirlwind year in which John went to rehab for cocaine and alcohol addiction and filed for divorce.
The former Saturday Night Live writer went public with the pregnancy on Late Night With Seth Meyers, whose host had been part of his intervention in 2020.
He gushed about their 'incredible' new relationship, saying: 'Olivia and this baby have helped save me from myself in this early journey out of recovery.'
The couple walked down the aisle over the July 4 weekend and welcomed their second child, Méi, in September via surrogate.
'Méi June Mulaney came into the world September 14, 2024, the year of the dragon,' Olivia posted as she announced their daughter's arrival last year.
'I had so many profound emotions about not being able to carry my daughter. When I first met our gestational surrogate we spoke mother to mother. She showed me so much grace and understanding, I knew I had found a real-life angel. Words cannot express my gratitude that she kept our baby safe for 9 months and made our dreams come true.
'I am so proud of my little plum, my little dragon for making the journey to be with us. My heart has exploded. Méi (pronounced may) means plum in Chinese.'
