When Alicia Keys gave birth to son Egypt two years ago everything changed.

"To have this type of love in my life at this time in my life, it means so much. Perspectives change, priorities change," she tells Lara Logan on CBS' Person to Person, airing Friday, Nov. 23 (10:00 p.m. ET).

But motherhood has been a welcomed change for Keys, 31, who tied the knot with rapper-producer Swizz Beatz, 34, in July 2010.

"I was such a different person seven years ago. Nothing would stop me from traipsing from here to London to L.A. back to London to L.A. in three days and not sleep. ... It was just that I thought that that was everything," she says. "But to have time to spend with my family and my son, it's like perspectives change a bit, it's like, 'Hold up! Let's not kill ourselves here.' "

Although balancing a family with her musical career has been an adjustment for the "Girl on Fire" singer, she excitedly speaks about the possibility of having more children.

When asked if she'd like to have "a lot more" children, Keys answered, "Definitely at least one more."

Epic Fashion Faceoff: Nicki Minaj vs. Julie Bowen vs. Paula Patton

What do Nicki Minaj, Julie Bowen and Paula Patton have in common? Before Sunday night, it probably wasn’t much. But now all three are bound by one very chic name: Monique Lhuillier.

Minaj wore Lhuillier’s silk faille strapless trumpet gown to the American Music Awards on Sunday, opting for the lime-green hue. We were actually surprised to see the star wearing something so … conventional, but she kept her styling expectedly over-the-top, adding a candy-pink lip, unruly platinum blonde waves and a multicolored statement necklace.

Conversely, Bowen stepped out of her comfort zone when she wore the gown to the 2012 Emmy Awards, telling PEOPLE, “I go very dark in colors, olive green being my most exciting shade. So I wanted color. And I think I delivered.” She accessorized the strapless creation with a metallic clutch, sparkly danglers and a half-up, half-down ‘do.

But the first star to get her hands on the dress — in lemon yellow — was Patton, for the 2012 Golden Globes. The star paired the frock with an understated hairstyle, along with a nude lip and starburst studs. Three very different women, one very classic gown. Tell us: Who do you think wore their Monique Lhuillier dress best? Minaj, Bowen or Patton? Vote below!

Wonder if they compared notes!

On Saturday night – a day after Selena Gomez's disastrous dinner date with ex Justin Bieber – the newly single singer-actress, 20, met up with pal Taylor Swift, 22, for a bite at Osteria La Buca in Los Angeles.

"The girls shared an Italian meal and seemed to have the best time," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "There were a lot of giggles and laughter. They looked like great friends and were also in deep conversation throughout the meal. Taylor was very protective of Selena and escorted her to and from the car."

No word on what the twosome talked about, but we have our theories.

Swift – who's been previously linked to Joe Jonas, Jake Gyllenhaal, Taylor Lautner and others – recently went through a breakup herself, splitting from Conor Kennedy, 18, this fall after a whirlwind summer romance.

But it looks like Swift may already be moving on. Earlier this week, she was seen hand-in-hand with One Direction heartthrob Harry Styles, 18, at a rehearsal for The X Factor.

For her part, Gomez split from Bieber a couple of weeks ago, but the two have spent time together in L.A. this weekend.

Bieber and Swift are both scheduled to perform at the American Music Awards in L.A. on Sunday evening.

Heads up, America: the President is not impressed.

During the U.S. women's gymnastics team's visit to the White House on Thursday, president Barack Obama posed with McKayla Maroney, pulling the apathetic expression that made Maroney an Internet sensation during the Summer Games in London.

Afterwards, the gold medalist, 16 – who's been mimicked by everyone from Maria Menounos to, perhaps inadvertently, Prince William – seemed uncharacteristically, well, impressed.

She Tweeted: "Did I just do the Not Impressed face with the President?"

For those who don't recall, the scowl that sparked a thousand memes originated after Maroney's faulty landing during the individual women's gymnastics vault event in London.

Lisa Ling has battled child traffickers, traveled to remote areas of the Congo to help women and raised awareness for her sister, captured and held in North Korea last year. But having a baby? That frightens her.

“I’m finally going down this road and it’s scary,” the expectant mom told PEOPLE Tuesday at the Women’s Media Center‘s 2012 Women’s Media Awards, where she and her sister Laura were honored.

“I’m really excited but more nervous than anything,” says Ling, 39, who is six months pregnant with a baby girl.

“I’m nervous about all of it. I’m nervous about how my life is going to completely change. I’m nervous about how I’m going to actually carry the baby. I’m nervous about changing diapers. I’m not someone who likes to be nervous. I’m someone who is always in control.”

“But I feel very fortunate,” the Our America host adds. “My husband [Paul Song] and I are very, very lucky that this is even happening. I’m really excited about investing our emotion and love in another person. I’m finally ready for it.”

The best part so far? “I didnt have any morning sickness at all and feel pretty normal other than getting this belly!”

Snooki's Nights Out Now: Drinking Wine and Talking Politics

With her fist-pumping days behind her, newly mature mom Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi no longer spends her conversations trying to figure out what happened the night before.

"I am having a glass of wine talking about politics," the recently reformed party girl, 24, says on an episode of Anderson Live, airing Thursday. "It's way different. Like, so, 'Who are you voting for?' I mean me and my friends are like, 'What are we saying?' We are getting so old."

Adds Polizzi, who gave birth to son Lorenzo in August, "Having a kid changes your life. Before, I was like, 'I want to go out. Let's go to Vegas.' After having a kid, it's just like, 'Oh my god, there's so much more to life than just going out and having a good time.' "

But the Jersey Shore star hasn't given up a social life completely.

"Once a month, I go out with my girlfriends because if you don't go out when you're a new mom, you're just going to freak out," she explains. "You need time for yourself. It's always so busy with the baby. Sometimes you get stressed or frustrated, so you just need your own time."

One thing Lorenzo's mommy surprisingly doesn't seem to need a break from is changing diapers.

"I actually love [it]," Polizzi says. "Even when they are like poopy and gross, it's fun. He pooped on my hand once and that was awesome. ... I have fun doing everything with him."

But the reality starlet, who says wants "to be a MILF," admits the whole experience wouldn't be as manageable without the aid of her other half, Jionni LaValle.

"Jionni's such a good help," Polizzi says of her fiancé. "He's like another mother to Lorenzo. He's hands-on. [He] changes diapers. He's just awesome. He helps me so I can do my hair and my makeup still."
