Alicia Silverstone caused quite a stir by posting a video on her website that showed her feeding her 11-month-old son Bear Blu by chewing the food first herself, then spitting it into his mouth.

The actress is speaking out about the video now, saying there’s nothing wrong with what she did.

“People have been feeding their kids that way for thousands for years. It’s a weaning process,” Silverstone, 35, told reporters Saturday at a screening of her cult classic Clueless and upcoming film Vamps at the Brooklyn Academy of Art and Music.

“He attacks my mouth and I think it’s adorable … it makes me laugh every time he does it,” she says.

“He also knows how to use his hands and he also eats regular food. When babies are weaning, he still breastfeeds. Some people think that’s disgusting too, which is insane.”

As for the critical commentary that followed, “Honestly, when I posted the video I was not thinking, so maybe I was like [Clueless character] Cher!”

Besides, she points out, it was a personal video posted on her website — hardly propaganda.

“I didn’t think I was inventing anything. I really wasn’t trying to tell anybody what to do,” explains the actress, adding that she was definitely not intending to “cause such a ruckus.”

What do you think? Would you feed your baby like this? I think it’s soooooooo strange, and the thought of actually doing it really grosses me out. But hey, to each his own!

Alicia Silverstone and her husband Christopher Jarecki are the parents of a baby boy! Bear Blu Jarecki was born on Thursday, weighing in at 7 pounds, 15 ounces.

The couple has been married since 2005 and announced the pregnancy in January. This is their first child.

Bear Blu!? Seriously? Wow…

Alicia Silverstone went for a walk with friend and ‘L Word’ actress Leisha Hailey in Hollywood this afternoon.

Alicia is expecting her first baby this year with her husband of six years Christopher Jarecki.

She has been longing to be a mother for some time now, saying last April she ‘can’t wait to be pregnant’.

‘I’ve been wanting to have a baby since I was two years old – I’m destined to be a mother,’ Silverstone said in April. She wed Jarecki – the lead singer of group S.T.U.N. – in June 2005 in an idyllic beachfront ceremony in Lake Tahoe, located on the California-Nevada border.

After meeting outside a movie theatre in 1997, the couple dated for eight years prior to their marriage.
