Busy Philipps takes a sip of water as she steps out to run a few errands on Monday afternoon (July 22) in Los Angeles.
The 40-year-old actress and former late-night talk show host paired her light pink hair with a cream-colored maxi-dress and sandals as she stepped out during on the sunny day.
Busy Philipps is excited for her daughters to hit a big milestone in their lives!
The 40-year-old actress and television personality, who is mom to six-year-old Cricket and 10-year-old Birdie, recently saw an article about hosting “first period parties” for young girls.
Busy Philipps is all smiles as she strikes a pose alongside Jameela Jamil while attending Aerie’s First-Ever REALtreat celebration in partnership with Create & Cultivate on Saturday (June 8) at The Rolling Greens Nursery in Los Angeles.
The 39-year-old entertainer and Jameela, 33, were joined by Aly Raisman, model Iskra Lawrence, artist/poet Cleo Wade and Jenna Kutcher at the event where the brand brought out its local community to participate in a day of inspirational conversations and interactive activations.
At the event, Busy revealed that she’s still looking for the best spot to take her talk show, Busy Tonight, after it was canceled by E! after one season.
“We’re still taking a bunch of meetings and stuff and we have people,” Busy Phillips expressed (via US Weekly). “It’s just a question of making sure that it’s the right place.”
“There is a need for, different voices to be in media, you know, talking about different types of things,” Busy continued about Busy Tonight. “People want that. I just wasn’t at the exact right place for people to be able to access that and get it. So maybe we’ll figure out a better place for it to happen.”
Busy Phillips testified before a subcommittee of the U.S. House Judiciary Committee in a hearing on abortion rights on Tuesday (June 4) in Washington, DC.
Following the passage of a highly restrictive abortion bill in Alabama, the 39-year-old actress invoked the hashtag #YouKnowMe to call on women who have had abortions to speak out.
“I had my abortion when I was 15 years old, in my home state of Arizona in 1994. It was not a decision I made lightly. But I have never for a moment doubted that it was the right decision for me,” Busy testified before Congress (via CBS). “But so much has changed — in Arizona and other states — since then.”
“If I were that 15 year old girl in Arizona today, legally I would have to get parental consent,” Busy continued. “I would be forced to undergo a medically unnecessary ultrasound, to go to a state-mandated in-person counseling, designed solely to shame me into changing my mind, then take a state-mandated 24-hour time out to make sure I really knew what I wanted. And finally, I would be forced to give the state a reason WHY. Well, here is mine: my body belongs to me, not the state. Women and their doctors are in the best position to make informed decisions about what is best for them. No one else.”
Busy then went on to share how — and why — she was uncomfortable with being called “brave” for her candor: “In the week after I shared my story on my show, women were coming up to me on the street, in the supermarket and at the gym with tears in their eyes, thanking me for my bravery,” Busy said. “But the word bravery didn’t sit right with me. Why is it brave to speak to an experience millions of people in the world throughout history have gone through? And then I realized. It is considered brave because as women we have been taught to feel shame about our bodies from birth. In my life I have had many medical procedures. But no one has ever called me ‘brave’ for talking about them. Abortion is health care, and should not be treated as different from any other health care.”
Ellie Kemper strikes a pose as she arrives at Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt’s Emmy For Your Consideration Event on Wednesday night (May 29) in Los Angeles.

The 46-year-old actress and goop founder was joined by Olivia Wilde, Taraji P. Henson, Jessica Alba, and Busy Philipps at her third annual health summit on Saturday (May 18) at the Rolling Greens Nursery in Los Angeles.
The ladies joined Gwyneth for an end of the day conversation where they discusses taking on new challenges while also talking about the relationships and mentors that have shaped their paths.
Each star roasted and toasted Busy and when it was Michelle‘s turn, she got up to the podium and ripped up her cue cards and decided to speak from the heart.
“Tonight is actually opening night of my daughter’s school play. And what I said to her, ‘Listen, Aunt Biz needs me. Are you cool if I just come to the middle and the ending?’ She was like, ‘Mom, absolutely. Get on that plane, of course,’” Michelle said. At this point, Busy was already in tears.
“And then she said to me, ‘Mom, why are you guys such good friends? You’re so different,” Michelle added. Busy jokingly replied, “I mean, does she work for Vanity Fair?!”
“You’re just always there. And I don’t know how you do it because you look like you’re living a really fabulous life for yourself, but the truth is that you show up for all of us, all of the time. You are the most selfless person that I know and it’s taught me everything that I know about being a friend. So thank you for asking me to come here and be with you tonight,” Michelle concluded.
FYI: Michelle is wearing Tabitha Simmons shoes.
