Nice shades!

Katherine Heigl: Naleigh Became Attached to Her Dad First

Katherine Heigl and Josh Kelley‘s daughter really is a daddy’s girl.

“The first thing she said was, ‘Dada,’ and then she’d call everybody else she loved ‘Dada,’” Heigl says in the October issue of InStyle of their daughter Nancy Leigh Mi-Eun, nicknamed Naleigh. “She actually attached to Josh much faster.”

The couple talked about adopting even before they were engaged, so when they adopted their baby from Korea a year later, the Life As We Know It actress says all her dreams came true.

But Heigl admits connecting with her 20-month-old daughter had its challenges.

“I had a lot of complicated emotions about it because I chose to go back to work,” she says. “I love what I do and – this isn’t just making excuses – if I weren’t fulfilling this thing in me to perform, to live out my passion, I don’t know that I would be the mom I need to be.”

Seth Browarnik/Startraks

Life is what you make it, and for Kelis the glass is definitely half-full!

In the wake of her high-profile split from rapper Nas, the singer-songwriter concedes in a new interview with the Guardian that “it’s hard being a working, single mother.”

However “on the flipside,” she continues, “it’s awesome, too.”

As she raises son Knight, 14 months, Kelis points out that there is only one voice that matters — hers.

“You only have to worry about yourself,” she explains. “It’s only your influence and your ideas.”
