If you saw me on Anderson Cooper Live, then you are the only one, because all anyone else saw was a head of hair typing on a computer. Was it Cousin It? Captain Caveman? Nope, it was "Ilana Wiles, Live-Blogger-of-the-Day".
I call it "The Hair Curtain" and it has burned me before…
Although, as you can see above, my boobs did make an appearance (as promised) and there was no sign of milk leakage whatsoever.
For that, I must give a huge thanks to BAMBOOBIES, my new nursing pad of choice, who totally saved me from televised humiliation (like that time I fell down while taping Good Morning America).
Despite my hair and my boobs getting limited camera time, I did get the royal treatment (car service, make-up, breakfast pastries), plus the awesome parting gift of the photo with Anderson up top. We shook hands, we smiled, we took a picture— he's practically my boyfriend.
To make it even sweeter, Anderson Cooper Live has my picture and bio up on their homepage— click here to read it.
You can also read about my full experience as well as a bunch of my live tweets over on Babble today.
Here's a small sampling so you know what you are in for…
Overall, it was a great experience. And a perfect excuse to spend a few hours away from the kids. When I got home, Mazzy was super excited to see me on television.
Nothing like impressing your three-year-old.
Look, Mazzy— Mommy's a STAR!

I pretty much love all of this. You crack me up, even though you’re a celebrity.
Yay! That is so great! LOVE you! And I think your hair looks awesome. 😉 xoxo
Aw, that’s awesome! I love Anderson Live. So bummed that it’s getting cancelled. 🙁
I wish my hair could be on Anderson Live. My boobs, not so much. 😉
You are a star! Then again, we already knew that. Great pic of you and Anderson.
Ahhh, I love your hair though, very nice. You look very busy and professional!
Bam. Awesome!!
Curse you, hair curtain! But what a cool day. Congrats on your many successes.
Love this! I had the opportunity to be one of the live bloggers a few days after Hurricane Sandy hit and one of the producers called me and I practically hung up on her saying something like, “I still have no power — I can’t possibly be on Anderson’s show in 2 days!” I’m still kicking myself for being such an (**&^^%$! Hoping I get the opportunity again some day but something tells me they’ve burned my # by now…:(
very cool, and I love your pic with the silver fox.
That is Awesome!
Famous Boobs – it is like a new column 😉
Congrats on the successful live tweet! Yay for non leaky boobs 😀
