Jana Kramer Clarifies Her Comments About Putting Sunscreen on Her Kids
NEED TO KNOW Jana Kramer is clarifying her comments about putting sunscreen on her three kids The actress and singer previously said that she doesn't always put sunscreen on her children Kramer is mom to daughter Jolie, 9, and sons Jace, 6, and Roman, 19 monthsJana Kramer is clearing up some confusion after her comments about putting sunscreen on her kids caused some controversy last week. The actress and singer, 41, clarified some of her comments on a Wednesday, July 16, episode of her podcast Whine Down with Jana Kramer, starting by saying that she'd gotten both positive and negative feedback after her remarks went viral. "I'm just doing what I think is best for my kids. I would never let my children just burn out in the sun," Kramer said. "I'm also not a dermatologist, so I don't know." "But I'm also open to the research on all sides of it, and welcome all of that," she continued. "I have seen so much negative [things] about sunscreen, what it can do, what it can cause. I've also seen the negative things that I've read about the sun and what it can do and what it can cause." "I think there's a healthy balance between the two. I think we need both. And we don't need excess of both," added Kramer. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Kramer explained that she replied to a handful of the DMs she received about her remarks, telling some there's "no need for name-calling." 'I didn't say always," she explained. "I put sunscreen on their neck, their ears and sometimes on their legs if we're going to a beach, a long day. But a couple of hours? No, I'm not going to, and that's okay.' 'Again, I would not let my kids fry,' she later added. 'And I'm open to anything kindly that someone wants to flood into my DMS in a nice manner.' Kramer shares daughter Jolie, 9, and son Jace, 6, with ex Mike Caussin, plus 19-month-old son Roman with husband Allan Russell. On a previous episode of her podcast, Kramer explained why she doesn't always put sunscreen on her kids. "Time out really fast. Let me just go back because I'm gonna get a lot of hate on this. I am well aware that I should have worn sunscreen as a child. I am well aware," Kramer began. The mom of three said that she would routinely use the tanning oil that had 8 SPF in it and never got burned until a cast trip to Puerto Rico during her time on One Tree Hill. Kramer explained that she started wearing sunscreen more often in her thirties since her skin had changed. "I don't use sunscreen on my kids unless it's going to be for hours outside because I know they don't burn," said Kramer. "And there's so much bad stuff in sunscreen that if we're not going to be out there for more than a couple hours, listen, come at me. But I'm just not putting it on." "I will if we're on the beach for hours and the reflection of all the things, like I'll put it on his neck, his ears — the baby — but like the kids, I haven't put on any on them because I'm like, they're not getting burned," she continued. "What's worse, the burn, or the suntan lotion?" According to experts, sunscreen is not toxic. 'There's been a lot of negative [reports] towards sunscreen out there, and it kind of stems from different reasons," Dr. Raman Madan, Director of Cosmetic Dermatology at Northwell Health told PEOPLE in June. "One of them is that people say that sunscreen can be absorbed into the bloodstream,' he said, explaining, 'it's a small, small, small amount' with some chemical sunscreens. However, he said, you can wear mineral-based sunscreens like zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, and 'those won't be absorbed by your body.' Regarding the environmental impact of sunscreens, some 'can harm coral reefs in some locations like in Hawaii and parts of Mexico, but if you're wearing the mineral-based zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, this is reef-safe, so it will be a non-issue again.' 'There's a lot of misinformation out there, and I think people are just trying to find reasons not to wear sunscreen,' he said. Read the original article on People

Celebrity Parenting Controversies That Sparked Outrage
Jana Kramer is not a fan of giving her kids sunscreen. 'I don't use sunscreen on my kids unless it's going to be for hours outside because I know they don't burn," Jana said on a recent episode of the Whine Down podcast. "And there's so much bad stuff in sunscreen that if we're not going to be out there for more than a couple hours, listen, come at me. But I'm just not putting it on.' 'I will if we're on the beach for hours… Like, I'll put it on his neck, his ears — the baby — but the kids, I haven't put on any on them because I'm like, they're not getting burned. What's worse, the burn or the suntan lotion?' Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard would lock their then-3-year-old daughter in her room until she fell asleep, but it's not as harsh as it sounds. "[Delta] decided to stop sleeping about nine months ago," Kristen said in a 2018 interview with Parents, via Today's Parent. "And every night, when we put her to bed, she turns the lights on, which annoys the 4-year-old [Lincoln], and she will move furniture, and she bangs on the door with different, hard toys. We switched the doorknob. We turned the lock on the outside." "I'm sorry, I know that's controversial," she continued. "But we lock [the door] when she gets in there, and we stand outside and say, 'We love you, we will talk to you in the morning, but now, it's time for sleep.' Then, after about 10 minutes, she'll wind herself down. And then, before we go to bed, obviously, we unlock it." Alicia Silverstone preferred to bird-feed her son when he was younger — as in, she would pre-chew his food and then pass the food from her mouth to his. "I just had a delicious breakfast of miso soup, collards and radish steamed and drizzled with flax oil, cast iron mochi with nori wrapped outside, and some grated daikon," Alicia wrote in 2012 on her The Kind Life blog. "Yum! I fed Bear the mochi and a tiny bit of veggies from the soup…from my mouth to his." "It's his mine. He literally crawls across the room to attack my mouth if I'm eating. This video was taken about a month or 2 ago when he was a bit wobbly. Now he is grabbing my mouth to get the food!"The post was accompanied by a video of her performing the act. Nelly isn't interested in parenting his child with Ashanti until he's able to walk and talk. 'Well, listen," Nelly said during an episode of their new reality series Nelly & Ashanti: We Belong Together. "It's all you, I ain't even gon' lie. You know, I ain't got nothing for him.' Ashanti replied, 'Absolutely not, I know.' 'Until he can say 'I'm hungry,' until he can say, 'I need to use the bathroom,' it's gonna be a lot in your lap… As soon as he gets to walking and talking, he with the crew.'Nelly went on to joke about being able to sleep through their baby crying and fussing in the middle of the night, and later followed up with this comment: 'Baby, I'll give you the world… I just ain't changing no diaper." Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher don't belive in bathing their children everyday. During a 2021 episode of the Armchair Expert podcast, Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis got into a discussion with hosts Dax Shepard and Monica Padman about their and their children's bathing how often they use soap. Dax theorized that people "should not be getting rid of the natural oil on your skin with a bar of soap every day.""I didn't have hot water growing up as a child, so I didn't shower much anyway," Mila said. "But when I had children, I also didn't wash them every day," Mila added. "I wasn't the parent that bathed my newborns — ever.""Now here's the thing," Ashton chimed in. "If you can see the dirt on them, clean them. Otherwise, there's no point." Ice-T and Coco Austin still push their daughter in a stroller. The famous couple received a lot of backlash for allowing her then-6-year-old daughter Chanel to sit in a stroller. Many people in the comments believed Chanel was too old to be pushed around by her parents. The family was vacationing in the Bahamas when Coco shared this photo."Why do they have a 6-year-old in a stroller?" someone asked. While another person commented, "SHE IS SO CUTE BUT LOOKS MISERABLE IN THAT STROLLER."Many news outlets picked up the story, including CNN, which got caught in the crossfire when Ice-T decided to respond: "Lol… CNN? Really?" the rapper tweeted in 2022. "MFs ain't got shit else to talk about.. F em all. Smh. Lol." Jamie Oliver made his kids eat chili peppers as a form of punishment. 'I give them chillies for punishment,' the popular TV chef said. 'It is not very popular beating kids anymore, it's not very fashionable, and you are not allowed to do it, and if you are a celebrity chef like me, it does not look very good in the paper. So you need a few options.' '[My daughter] Poppy was quite disrespectful and rude to me and she pushed her luck,' he continued. 'In my day I would have got a bit of a telling-off but you are not allowed to do that. She ran up to mum and said, 'This is peppery'. I was in the corner laughing. [Jools] said to me, 'Don't you ever do that again.'' Madonna made her daughter Lourdes wear the same outfit every single day, until she was obedient. Whenever her daughter left clothes on the floor, Madonna had an interesting method to prevent her from doing it again. "We take all of her clothes and put them in a bag, and she has to earn all of her clothes back by being tidy," she told USA Today in 2005. She wears the same outfit every day to school until she learns her lesson." Lourdes once described her icon of a mother as a "control freak" in Interview magazine in 2021."The list of things I wasn't allowed to do is never-ending. My mom is such a control freak, and she has controlled me my whole life. I needed to be completely independent from her as soon as I graduated high school." Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder isolated themselves and their newborn daughter from the world for the first 30 days of their child's life. 'After the baby arrives, we're doing one month of silence," Nikki said in 2017. "Just the three of us, no visitors, and we're turning off our phones too, so there's no expectation for us to communicate.' She added that she didn't want to feel the pressure of having to give multiple people updates about the baby and share photos of the baby. 'You don't get those first 30 days back, and we want to be fully present." Did you grow up in a household with interesting or controversial parenting methods that might seem uncommon to others?

Jana Kramer's Surprising Parenting Take On Sunscreen For Her Kids Might Leave You A Little Red
Jana Kramer's parenting stance on sunscreen is turning up the heat online. With summer in full swing and UV levels soaring, Kramer is making waves — not just on the beach, but in the parenting world. During an in-depth conversation about the dos and don'ts for the summer months, the actor shared her reasoning on a recent episode of her podcast, 'Whine Down with Jana Kramer,' where friend Kathryn Woodard joined her. 'I don't use sunscreen on my kids, unless it's going to be for hours out because I know they don't burn,' she said. When she does apply the ointment, Kramer confessed that she puts it on her youngest — but not her other two children. Kramer shared that her concerns center around what's in sunscreen itself, stating, 'There's so much bad stuff in sunscreen.' 'What's worse: the burn or the suntan lotion?' she mused. Kramer's question touches on the ongoing fear-mongering about 'toxins' in almost everything, from seed oil and food dyes to sunscreen — especially sunscreen. However, while some sunscreens may contain ingredients that warrant closer monitoring, experts say there are many safe options — and using sunscreen is preferable to the risk of skin cancer from the sun's rays. 'When people ask me which is riskier — sunscreen or the sun — the answer is always the same: the sun, hands down,' said dermatologist Dr. Oma Agbai to HuffPost in June. On the podcast, Kramer unapologetically doubled down with a confident, 'Come at me' to address any would-be critics. Kramer shares son Jace and daughter Jolie with ex-husband Mike Caussin. She is also mom to son Roman, whom she welcomed with her husband, Allan Russell.

Jaime King is engaged
Jaime King is engaged. The 46-year-old actress is in a relationship with investor Austin Sosa, and PEOPLE has confirmed that the pair is set to tie the knot. A source told the outlet: "She is very close with his family and was staying with his parents after she moved out of her Los Angeles apartment earlier this year." A representative for the Hart of Dixie star - who was initially married to Kyle Newman from 2007 until 2023 and has James, 11, as well as nine-year-old Leo with him - later confirmed the news but also reminded fans that she would prefer privacy at this time. The rep said: "Jaime is especially happy to share this moment with her children, who have a loving bond with Austin and his family," her rep said. "As always, her sons remain her top priority, and she kindly asks for privacy as they move forward together with love and gratitude." After losing sole physical custody of her children, Jaime admitted that the whole battle had been "scary" for her and she didn't think about any of that when she first tied the knot. Speaking to Jana Kramer on her Whine Down podcast, she said: "It's terrifying, when to be able to be free means that you have to pay a very extreme price, and I'm not just talking about financially. "It's very upsetting, and I will do everything in my power to change this system, and it's not a will. I'm going to. There's no price to pay for freedom." My duty as a mother is to protect my children. And that's all that matters to me. This is scary." "I just didn't know when I got married at a young age. I just didn't know that that the world works like this. I didn't know that legal systems work like this. "And not to sound like some kind of neophyte, but I thought that, you know, when you choose to love someone, then you love that person. You build a family with them, and, you trust them."

Jana Kramer's husband Allan Russell says it would be 'selfish' to masturbate now that he's married
Allan Russell thinks it would be "selfish" to masturbate now that he is married to Jana Kramer. The 44-year-old former professional footballer tied the knot with former One Tree Hill star Jana - with whom he has 19-month-old son Roman in 2024 - and insisted that they have such a "healthy sex life" that he no longer any interest in self-gratification. Speaking on his wife's Whine Down podcast, he explained:" Since I met Jana and we've subsequently got married and had a baby and stuff. There's no point - and I can be really honest in this - where I actually feel like masturbating. We have what I think is a healthy sex life. "I love being close to her, making love to her and having those sensual and physical moments. I know it's going to come, so I'm not ruin it by doing what I need to do selfishly for myself to then diminish or ruin the thing that we have together. So therefore, I just don't feel like doing it. I would rather have her than go into the bathroom or wherever it is. When I was single, I would masturbate a lot but I don't feel like it [now]." Earlier this year, Jana - who also has Jolie, nine, and six-year-old Jace with ex-husband Mike Caussin - revealed that she and Allan had had a "conversation" regarding the idea of her filming sex scenes. She told E! News: "There's a conversation with every [job] we take. It's the same thing with his line of work. "That's what marriage is—it's a conversation. It's not like, 'No, you cannot do this.' I don't think that's healthy. "I'm not going to do something that is wildly taking my clothes off for no reason. "If it is creatively gonna move the needle and it's important to me for the role, he is so supportive. What's more, Jana - who was initially married to Michael Gambino and then to Johnathon Schaech - insisted that her current husband is the reason behind the newfound "confidence" she has in her career. She said: "I do owe a lot of it to my husband. "In the past I wouldn't have focused so much on the work because I was so worried about, 'OK, what woman is he cheating on me with?' I wasn't able to truly settle and be confident." Despite Jana's comments on her husband, he previously insisted that he would "never" let another man get close to her. He said: 'There's not part of me that will ever, ever, ever allow that, ever, for a man to be that close to you like that. 'Never.'
