Sesame Street Debuts Adorable New Video from ‘I Love My Hair’ Muppet

Zach Hyman/Sesame Street/AP

Just when we thought “I Love My Hair” was their cutest skit ever, Sesame Street releases another video that’s just as adorable.

This time, the same plucky Muppet sings about being anything you want to be in “Change the World.”

Backed by two sequin-clad singer/dancers, she belts out lyrics that describe her many professional options including Supreme Court Justice, astronaut and U.S. President.

It’s a “Girls Run the World” for the mini set.

Mom-to-be Beyoncé Knowles would be so proud.

All aboard!

Claudia Schiffer and daughters Cosima Violet, 17 months, and Clementine, 6½, hop on the Eurorail on Monday in London.

The supermodel, 41, says being a present mother to her girls, as well as son Caspar, 8, is extremely important to her.

“I try to be at dinner with the kids. I want to put them to bed,” Schiffer explains.

“I’m not one of those people who are addicted to their Blackberry. I put it away.”

Hilary Duff on Pregnancy: These Boobs Are New!

Splash News Online

A glowing Hilary Duff visited Chelsea Lately Monday, revealing that her pregnancy has been smooth sailing so far — and it’s not just a baby that she’s welcoming.

“These are new,” she joked, gesturing to her breasts on the show. “These are new and different so that can be a good and bad thing.”

Luckily the Devoted author, 24 — who’s expecting a baby boy with husband Mike Comrie – has missed any pregnancy pitfalls.

“Everything’s been really easy,” she added. “I didn’t get sick.”

Of course, Duff wasn’t spared the typical Chelsea Handler ribbing. “How did you get pregnant?” the E! host teased.

“Everyone thinks I’m such good girl,” Duff quipped back, “but I figured it out.”

Yum! 6 Boo-tastic Halloween Recipes from Weelicious

Courtesy Weelicious

Halloween is quickly approaching and finding healthy treats (did I just use the words “healthy” and “Halloween” in the same sentence?) that the kids will get excited about can feel like a hopeless endeavor for many parents.

No matter how vigilant I am most of the time, on Halloween night I’m not about to start to depriving my son of all the junky candy that goes with the fun of the holiday.

However, with all of the school parties and events that also come with Halloween, I strive to make healthy, nutritious recipes for the little ones that they’ll also view as a treat.

Check out some of my faves — including an exclusive video — below:

Jo Dee Messina‘s country crew is expanding — the singer is expecting her second child.

“Our family is very excited. In a few months, Chris, Noah and I will be welcoming BABY #2!!!” Messina, 41, announced via Twitter Wednesday.

The new addition will join big brother Noah Roger, 2½, the singer’s first child with husband Chris Deffenbaugh, whom she wed in October 2007 — and hopefully the baby will have a smile like its sibling!

“I get [Noah] out of his crib first thing in the morning and there he is — huge smile,” Messina says. “He’s a very happy soul, which is a blessing.”

Mamma mia!

After keeping her growing belly under wraps, Jennifer Garner steps out in a form-fitting tee while running errands Thursday in Los Angeles.

With her third child on the way, the actress, 39, says daughters Violet Anne, 5½, and Seraphina Rose Elizabeth, 2½, have started suggesting baby names for Garner and husband Ben Affleck.

“Ralphie, Frankie, Minnie Mouse, Daisy Duck, or Rosemarie … Daisy Duck Affleck,” laughs Garner.

“I can see us going that way.”
