Don't get Alison Sweeney wrong.
The Days of Our Lives star obviously loves her son, Benjamin. But she's also excited about giving birth to a girl in a couple months.
“I love decorating her room with all this great girlie stuff,” the actress said. “I’ll be honest, I’m very excited about buying a princess dress. And the lip gloss and nail polish — it’s going to be so cute!”
Yup, it's official: Alison Sweeney is pregnant!
The Days of Our Lives star is due to give birth on January 20. And the beauty is starting to show!
Alison Sweeney has no complains about life on Days of Our Lives. In a recent interview, the actress aid that time on the show hasn't gotten old at all:
"I love playing Sami. It still excites me. She’s different every day. Every day I get a script, and it’s a brand-new challenge."
Sweeney went on about her character:
"She’s had two men fighting over her for so long, and now there are none. She is definitely wondering what happened with that. With Lucas, she found a real, adult, mature relationship. Then EJ came along, and he manipulated Sami like she did with Austin. As an actress, it’s fun for me to be along for the ride."
As for what Sweeney would love to see for Sami down the line on Days of Our Lives? She has some ideas.
"I would love to see Sami get involved with a career of some kind. I’ve always felt that she’s been underestimated. If we could get her focused on her career, that would be a good way to vent her emotions and energies.”
Alison Sweeney, the busiest woman on daytime TV, turns 32 today.
We wish this Days of Our Lives star a very happy birthday!
Alison Sweeney may have a pair of jobs - as host of The Biggest Loser and as a star on Days of Our Lives - but she isn't going totally Hollywood. Don't expect this actress to give her next baby a weird name like Zuma, Honor or Suri.
"I'm definitely conservative when it comes to baby names," Sweeney said last week. "We're looking for pretty but traditional. There are lots of names up in the air, but we're not anywhere near picking one."
Alison Sweeney is excited to be fat.
The Days of Our Lives star is pregnant, of course, so it doesn't really count. That's why she's looking forward to packing on the ounds.
"It's really the only time in your life that you're supposed to gain weight," Sweeney told People magazine at Tuesday's auction of celeb-donated jeans for Clothes Off Our Back, which benefits children's charities. "They say that you're eating for two, but you have to remember that one of the two is only five ounces. It's not the same."
Initially, during her second pregnancy, gaining weight was the last thing on her mind.
"I was really morning sick," the actress said. "It was brutal. I would order my favorite things from restaurants, and I would get it and say, 'Get that thing away from me.' Grilled chicken or tomatoes would be the worst. I would tell my husband to get it away from me."
On September 16, The Biggest Loser: Families premieres.
During a recent conference call with reporters, host Alison Sweeney said she hopes to appear on the show for as long as possible. But the pregnancy of her second child with husband David Sanov will be a challenge.
"I'm definitely planning on working as much as I can all the way up through until the last minute. [Producer Mark Hoops] always teases me because I'm extremely optimistic about how long I'll be able to stay," the Days of Our Lives actress said.
"A lot of it is because I'm such a fan. I love being there with them, I love seeing their progress... I'll be MIA for a portion of it and they have plans for that."
We wonder if Alison Sweeney ever sleeps.
The busy Days of Our Lives star - who hosts The Biggest Loser, along with a slew of other activities she participates in - will host a charity auction later this month.
The charity auction is in conjunction with Clothes Off Our Back and will take place Tuesday, August 26 in Times Square at 10 a.m. It will benefit organizations that assist with worldwise problems such as hunger and displaced children.
At this specific event, those in attendance will bid on jeans donated by Miley Cyrus, Ryan Seacrest, Michael Kors and Sweeney herself.
Alison Sweeney is a busy woman. She's pregnant with her second child and is prominently involved with a number of story lines on Days of Our Lives.
The actress did find time, however, to speak with Michael Fairman about a number of topics. Here are a couple experpts from the interview:
Q: Congratulations on the upcoming birth of your new baby girl! Are you excited for your husband Dave, and son Ben, to welcome another member into the family mix?
A: Thanks! Dave, Ben and I are THRILLED to be welcoming a baby girl into our family. It’s so exciting.
Q: What did you think when Sami caught EJ and Nicole in an elevator half-naked? And then the other man in her life, Lucas, had just been with Chloe in an elevator !
A: Those scenes were crazy- such a weird set of circumstances that have set off a whole new direction in the story!
Q: What are Sami’s feelings at this point for Chloe and Nicole?
A: Sami has never really had female “friends” so I suppose she is not surprised to be backstabbed by Chloe and Nicole.
Days of Our Lives star Alison Sweeney was spooted at the Summit Entertainment's Fly Me To The Moon premiere on Sunday in Los Angeles. She attended the event with son Ben.
