She’s an angel, and very thankful I have such a great loving mother. And our relationship is amazing and just super thankful for her leadership and, yeah, to watch her and my dad … I’ve got both my mom and dad in me for sure. It’s kind of, I guess what keeps me sane, maybe.”

And Lady Antebellum’s Lead Singer Hillary Scott Got Her ‘Heart’ From Her Mother … “I think one of the characteristics that I got from my mom is, I watched her my whole life have such a heart for people. And I think that that’s part of who she was created to be. I think that’s part of who I was created to be. But I also got to have this beautiful example of that lived out by her. And so, I would say, a big wide open heart for people.”

Ellen DeGeneres time in quarantine is taking it’s toll.. she’s invented some interesting alcoholic drinks… Her first drink is called the ‘Joe Exotic.’ She serves it on a toilet paper square.
