By GARY COGILL / WFAA-TV

Gary Cogill is an award-winning film critic for WFAA-TV in Dallas. Gary has been interviewing actors, writers and directors since the mid-1980s and is a nationally recognized film critic.

In honor of Mother's Day, we decided to interview the mothers of a couple of famous stars.

• Kolleen "Queenie" Wright is the mother of soul-pop superstar Erykah Badu.

Queenie pulls out some family photos and talks about raising three kids and the progress of their careers.

She says she appreciates their honesty and cherishes the memory she has of performing on stage with Erykah when she was young.

• Laura Wilson is the mother of Owen Wilson, star of The Wedding Crashers and Zoolander.

She shows off some of the family photos she took as her three boys were growing up
