The Kardashians: "We Work 25 Hours a Day"

Make no mistake: The Kardashians didn't earn $65 million last year by sitting on their famous derrieres.

"It's annoying when I hear, 'What do your girls do?' Well, first of all, all of my daughters have jobs. They are fashion stylists and designers; they own a chain of stores. They had the stores before they had the show," matriarch Kris Jenner, 55, tells the May issue of Redbook. "And my kids worked from the time they were 13 years old. So to me, that's a huge misconception that the girls don't work. They work 25 hours a day."

As for criticism that her famous daughters lack any talent? "They might not be singers or dancers, but they certainly know how to produce a television show," Jenner says. "Whether you want to call it talent or not, they have multiple shows on the air. How many shows do you have?"

Part of their family's appeal, Khloe notes, is that they aren't afraid to be themselves.

"We are a real family. We don't sugarcoat anything. We're not the Brady Bunch, but we always put each other first," Khloe Kardashian, 26, says. "We love each other on camera, we cry on camera. I think people relate to the realness of it."

Kim Kardashian, 30, insists there isn't much to hide anyway. "There's nothing I'm really ashamed of, and I work hard on the show and all my other projects," she tells the mag. "I don't drink or do drugs, so I'm comfortable showing the world what my life is all about."

Despite their individual struggles -- Khloe's pressure to have a baby, Kourtney Kardashian's rocky relationship with Scott Disick, and Kim's struggle with plastic surgery rumors -- Kris insists her family is stronger than ever.

"Our joy in life is that we always have each other," she says. "So I've tried to teach my kids three things: love God, love your family and love yourself."

Christina Aguilera: December Issue Of Redbook

Christina Aguilera dropped heavy hints about personal drama in a Redbook magazine interview conducted just weeks before her announced split from music producer husband Jordan Bratman.

"Men aren't as strong and capable as we are," Aguilera, 29, says in the mag's December issue. "We're machines."

In the chat, the singer was effusive about son Max, 2, but vague and hesitant about Jordan, whom she married nearly five years ago. Alluding to emotional upheaval, she said she was eager to get back in the music studio and "pour my heart out and be able to release anything I'm going through."

The "You Lost Me" singer also hinted to Redbook that she was feeling restless. "My life is cyclical," she said. "I'm not a 9-to-5 woman who has the same kind of lifestyle for years on end. I couldn't do it. I need the spontaneity, that thrill of change. That's part of how I get inspired."

One big fan through thick and thin? Close pal and fellow mom Nicole Richie, who gushed to Redbook: "It's very clear through Christina's music what a strong woman she is...But to watch her as a mother only skyrockets the respect I have for her. She is the woman who's recording until 4 a.m. and up at 7 to be with her son. Her dedication to Max is incredible."

After news of her breakup made headlines, Aguilera opened up some more to the mag, and thanked her close friends. "There have been a lot of tears and sadness," she said of her new single life. "It's impossible to redefine yourself and your life overnight. Thankfully, I have my mom and a small group of close friends who are there for me 24/7 and whom I can trust and depend on. On days when it feels impossible to even get out of bed, much less function as a mother, their support and encouragement have kept me moving forward."

The December issue of Redbook hits stands November 16.

Christina Aguilera: Split Caused Tears & Sadness

Christina Aguilera is relying on her mother, her son and her closest friends to help her through the emotional turmoil of her divorce from Jordan Bratman.

"It's not easy, and there have been a lot of tears and sadness. It's impossible to redefine yourself and your life overnight," the pop star, 29, tells Redbook in its November issue, on newsstands Nov. 16.

"Thankfully, I have my mom and a small group of close friends who are there for me 24/7 and whom I can trust and depend on. On days when it feels impossible to even get out of bed, much less function as a mother, their support and encouragement have kept me moving forward."

Also, her son Max, who will be 3 in January, remains a source of joy – and someone she can focus on. "Thankfully, I have Max to keep me on a sane path," Aguilera says. "His needs and happiness are my top priorities, and my biggest concern is to protect him and make him feel safe."

Asked about the details of her split, she adds: "Out of respect for my husband, I prefer to keep the specifics private. Right now, I'm just trying to figure out how to make it through each day."
