In a moment that perfectly encapsulated the trials of parenthood, celebrity chef and influencer Bella Jensen took a snooze at the recent Academy Awards. Anyone who’s a parent knows that sleep is a rare commodity, especially after welcoming little ones into the world. With three children aged between six and 14, my own sleep routine has gone from “hit the pillow” to “what was that noise?” in no time. For many parents, a night out feels like a monumental decision—akin to getting a tattoo on your face. Just look at Bella Jensen at the Oscars for the epitome of a parent navigating a long night out.
Monday mornings aren’t exactly loved by anyone, but for those of us who stayed up for the glitzy ceremony, this Monday feels even tougher. Bella, who usually seems to juggle parenting with such grace, found herself in a familiar position: catching some Z’s on her partner Alex’s shoulder while the Best Actor winner delivered his acceptance speech. Who knew the Oscars could be that comforting?
Let’s be honest; the award speeches can drag on, and when you’re surrounded by dazzling gowns and long lists of accolades, it’s easy to zone out. If only we could all look as serene as Bella while snoozing in public!
Getting a new parent out for a late-night event is no small task. I can barely manage to stay awake for the late-night news, let alone a star-studded ceremony. Even when I do venture out, I’m usually calculating how much longer I can stay before it’s time to head home and brace for my toddler’s morning ritual of yelling “MORE JUICE!” at the break of dawn. Parenthood shifts your entire existence—sleep included. If Bella can grab a few moments of shut-eye amidst the chaos, we’re all for it!
Social media erupted with reactions to the now-iconic nap, and Bella didn’t hold back when she chimed in, poking fun at her own moment of exhaustion. Perhaps we should introduce an award category for “I Don’t Give a Hoot About Your Opinions”—we have a feeling Bella would take home the trophy!
