Heather Graham – From Stripper to Hot Mama
Playing a stripper and a prostitute/escort in the Movie: The Hangover and living in Sin City has led beautiful blonde Hollywood actress Heather Graham to feel like she’s ready for motherhood.
But acting as a mother has made her feel for the first time that she may be ready to have a family. “I’ve been thinking about it lately,” she told an Australian newspaper.
“I’m not at the stage where I’m saying: ‘Today I want one.’ But to be a mother sounds more fun to me than it did before. I don’t know how some people have kids when they’re 20 because it seems like a lot to take on. But finally now, I feel like I’m ready.”

The Hangover Review
Read the complete Ultimate Hangover Review – here are some excerpts:
What Turned Me On – The Hangover doesn’t wait very long before kicking the comedy into high gear. After an opening scene in which a bloodied Bradley Cooper stands on the desert roadside informing the bride via cell phone that the groom is, in fact, missing, we’re off and running.
What follows is a brutally relentless comedy assault with so many laughs that you might need to see it again just to hear the lines you missed when the audience was laughing so loudly.
What Turned Me Off – Hmm, big laughs, tigers, Heather Graham breast-feeding, naked Asian man beating the boys with a tire iron, Mike Tyson singing Phil Collins… I’m trying, but I’m not finding much to dislike here.
Heather Graham on Breastfeeding
Graham had to handle acting like she was breast-feeding the baby, a difficult task for any actress. “You know, it takes a lot of practice. I had to start lactating,” joked Graham. “I’m a method actor. The baby was teething so the AD said, ‘Be careful because the baby is teething and I can’t promise that he’s not going to try and bite you.’ But, luckily, he didn’t.”
Graham recalled the day they actually filmed the breast-feeding scene as being an extremely long day on the set. “I think it was like a 17-hour day, because obviously the baby is not really breast-feeding, so the babies keep looking around, and they start looking at Zach [Galifianakis], looking at Bradley [Cooper] and so they were like, ‘It doesn’t look like he’s breast-feeding now because his head’s moving.’ So we had to keep his head facing down towards my boobs. So someone had to stand behind me with a rattler, going, ‘Chee, chee, chee.’ And then it was just like it had no…at the end of the day, it kind of felt like it didn’t matter what I was doing as long as the baby’s head – it was all about where the babies head was looking.”
But Graham says that despite everything, the moms were really into it. “They were like, ‘Can you take a picture of my baby? I want a picture of you.”
Graham is dating Yaniv Raz, 32, a director she worked with on the movie Son of Mourning. “We’ve just planted a garden together, too, so I think that is really romantic,” she comments.
