Don’t get us wrong; we all adore our real moms, but sometimes it’s fun to fantasize about being the spawn of a celebrity. In honor of Mother’s Day, we thought it would be fun to spotlight our 10 celeb dream moms. From Amy Poehler to Michelle Obama to RuPaul, click through to see our top picks!

Connie Britton
If she’s 1/4 as good of a mom in real life as she was on “Friday Night Lights,” then she would still be the Best Mom Ever. Plus, she could teach us to do our hair.
Michelle Obama
Because you know those kids are going to grow up to be smart, kind, hardworking, great people. We want to soak up some life lessons from Michelle too!
Amy Poehler
Obviously she’s hilarious and would always be up for a spur-of-the-moment adventure, but she’s also a proud feminist, and her “Ask Amy” video series proves she’s a pro at being supportive and empathetic. Amy, can we please call you to vent when we have a bad day?
Jada Pinkett Smith
Ever since we read her amazing response to critics of her daughter Willow’s unconventional hairstyles, we’ve had some serious mom envy.
Celine Dion
Mostly so we can share her ridiculously huge shoe collection.
RuPaul
He could teach us about self-love, makeup, and how to read a bitch like a pro.
Diane Von Furstenberg
She seems like a great role model–strong but also feminine–and just think of all the hand-me-down wrap dresses!
Oprah
Sitting around the dinner table and talking about the day’s “Aha moments”? Life dream status. Plus, she’d always have great book suggestions and we have a hunch she gives great hugs.
Helen Bonham Carter
It would be pretty much impossible to have Helena Bonham Carter for a mom and not grow up to be a delightfully strange and interesting person.
Liza Minelli
Wouldn’t that be fun? So. Many. Sequins.
