— Shakira
Everything you see is filtered through your visual system (imperfect) and your brain (also imperfect, despite what your mom told you). Witness testimony is the worst kind of evidence in science.

— Selma Blair
One day I was like, 'Mom, you wanna sign me at Sony?'

The Sherry Theater, which I named after my mom, is a place I can go. I do want to give back to the community. There are so many people out there who want to be seen and heard, and get connected.
— Scott Haze
My mom always had me and my brother watching old Fred Astaire movies.
— Savion Glover
The loss of my mom really inspired me to go to a place with my performances that were emotionally honest, and I found that audiences really responded to that. People need to see heartbreak transformed into beauty.
— Sasha Velour
I used to work at a hotel. I was the order-taker for room service. My mom worked at the hotel as an accountant.
— Sasha Banks
I was born in California and moved around a lot. When I was 17, I moved to Boston because my mom got a job there. The moment I went to Boston, everything just felt right and fell into place on how I wanted it to be.
My mother raised three kids on her own, so I was taught that to be a working mom was a good thing.
— Sarah Shahi

I have a P.O. Box that I get about 50 letters a day that my mom picks up, and a lot of weird gifts I like to show on my videos.
— Shane Dawson
I don't have a regular happy family like most people. My parents are separated; my dad married someone else and so did my mom. All my siblings are from my parents' other marriages. So yes, it is complicated, and I don't like talking about it or explaining this to everybody. But all this doesn't stop us from being close to each other.
— Shahid Kapoor
My mom's a social worker, and my dad works in non-profit organisations.
— Seth Rogen
My mom would still be mad if I didn't say 'please' and 'thank you.'
— Selena Gomez
I was a major Anglophile. My brothers and I were raised knowing both languages, French and English. My dad was born in Austria, educated in Britain, and then went back to France. My mom was born in England, but raised in Egypt and Malaysia. We were a globetrotter family.
— Sebastian Roche
Even though my mom herself was anxious, I think she didn't know how to deal with it in her kid, and my dad just had no conception of what this was about, and sort of didn't even want to acknowledge it.
— Scott Stossel
My mom is my best friend and my biggest cheerleader.
— Scott Eastwood
As my mom says, I was a little bit of a slacker in high school. I really was just kind of unmotivated, a little bit lazy, so my grades weren't that good.
— Savannah Guthrie
Right when I was starting to experiment with drag, my mom was diagnosed with cancer, and during her chemo treatment, she lost all of her hair. And for her, the idea of being a fem with no hair was really difficult.
From my mom telling me 'no' to now telling everyone I'm the champion, and she's so proud of me, and to prove to a lot of people - who didn't believe in me, who didn't think I was going to be here - that I'm here, and I did it. It's been a roller coaster of emotions; it's amazing.
I'm a working mom. I've been working since I was 14 years old.
— Sarah Steelman
My mom died of cancer when I was really young. I'm not someone who tries to work out their own stuff with a role, but I think that happened despite my best efforts to keep myself separate from it.
— Sarah Polley
I love those hockey moms. You know what they say the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull is? Lipstick.
I've changed in my sympathies since I've become a mother myself. In high school I went through a period where I was close with my mom and had to break with her in order to find myself and come back. Since that was my experience, that's often what happens in my books.
— Sarah Dessen
When I was 7, I came up with the idea of 'charm socks.' My mom would take me to buy bags of plastic charms, we would sew them on frilly white socks, and I sold them at school.
— Sara Blakely
In a way, I'm fighting because of my mom. She wanted me to find something in my life.
My mom taught me to respect myself, and to question anyone who would ask me to sacrifice my integrity.
When I was in high school, they opened an arts high school. I didn't read music, and I wasn't a trained dancer, so I was like, 'OK, I guess I'll go into acting.' I asked my mom if she knew any plays for my audition, and the only one she knew was 'A Raisin in the Sun.'
— Shalita Grant
I'm from a single-parent family. My mom is like my mom and dad. She's my world.
— Shaggy
My mom taught me how to sew when I was 2 or 3, so I've been sewing for as long as I can remember.
— Serena Williams
I was aware of the pressure of my mom and not just my mom but my entire family. I was very aware of that reality, so it was almost this inferiority complex.
When I came out of my mom's womb, I had 'sitcom' stamped on my forehead.
— Sean Hayes
I didn't really know what I wanted to do, and then I got this call from a casting director in Los Angeles. She remembered me from something years before, and she called my mom wanting me to audition for this thing.
— Scott Speedman
I turned to my mom and said, 'I'm going to be a martial arts movie star.' She didn't believe me, and neither did my dad. They both thought I would grow out of it. That it was a phase. I decided then I was going to do it or die trying.
— Scott Adkins
When I was in college, there were a couple years there where I was just not sure what to do, and it was actually my mom who suggested I take some journalism classes.
If I knew the joy a child brings, I'd have become a mom earlier.
— Sasha Pivovarova
When I was 12, I was living in Iowa, and I emailed so many wrestling schools, and one of them was actually in Boston. I joined it at 18 - the New England Pro Wrestling Academy. They were doing a fantasy camp. I was 17 about to turn 18. I told my mom, 'I'm 18 now. I just signed these papers by myself, and I'm going to do this.'
I did karate for about three years. When I was going into Miss Texas, my mom said, 'Let's not do karate this year. Let's not have any knocked-out teeth on the stage.'
My mom moved to New York City alone with a kid on each hip to try to live an authentic artistic life.
