Inside Celebs’ Mother’s Day Flex: From Diamond Doughnuts to Designer Diaper Bags
Can’t say I’m stunned that Hollywood turned Mother’s Day into another influencer gold mine—brace yourself for hashtag overload and photo op galore. Beyoncé kicked off the extravaganza by sharing an ethereal black-and-white throwback with her mom, Tina Knowles, captioned “My everything,” and yes, that came courtesy of Instagram’s finest filters (People Magazine, May 11). Meanwhile, Jennifer Lopez celebrated by gifting her mom a custom “Love” charm bracelet worth more than most of our apartments (E! News confirms the seven-figure estimate).
Over at the Reynolds-Lively household, Blake and Ryan treated Kelly Lively to a trendy pottery class—because nothing says “I love you” like Instagram-ready ceramics. According to TMZ’s exclusive snaps, mom even got to mold a heart-shaped bowl while Ryan feigned artistic talent for the cameras. John Legend and Chrissy Teigen opted for a more low-key moment, serving Chrissy’s mom breakfast in bed, complete with heart-shaped pancakes that looked suspiciously store-bought (per US Weekly).
Chrissy herself couldn’t resist posting a carousel of blooper reels featuring her kids—proving once and for all that even celebrity moms aren’t immune to toddler tantrums. Ariana Grande dialed up the sentimentality with a pastel-hued Instagram Story, praising her mom for surviving six album rollouts, three world tours, and one major breakup without skipping a beat (reported by People).
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson went old school, handcrafting a framed collage of his mom’s old wrestling-arena snaps—because nothing says “tough love” like macho nostalgia. And Reese Witherspoon, ever the farmhouse aesthetic queen, hosted a Southern-style brunch on her Tennessee estate, complete with mini sweet-tea pies and monogrammed napkins.
Of course, no celebrity roundup would be complete without that one influencer-turned-actress who claimed she “forgot” Mother’s Day until 11 p.m. on Sunday, then posted a selfie captioned, “Mom saved me again.” Sigh. At least Madison Beer revealed she treated her mom to a diamond-studded coffee table book, proving that some people really do put their money where their heart is (Heat World spotlighted the $25,000 sticker shock).
Sure, it’s all saccharine snapshots and heartfelt captions—but beneath the gloss, you’ve got lavish gifts, designer labels, and paparazzi-friendly moments masquerading as genuine family love. And if you weren’t following along, you probably still feel FOMO.
And that’s today’s dose of reality. You’re welcome.
