Hilary Swank Seeks Fans Help With Delivery Playlist In Hilarious New Video

The "Camp Wilder" actress, who prefers to keep her private life away from the prying eyes of the public, surprised fans when she revealed last year that she was expecting twins.

Taking to her Instagram page, she appeared again to show off her large stomach and dancing skills. Wearing a lilac-colored hoodie with her hair over her shoulders, the 48-year-old began the clip by asking her followers for their input on an important matter. She said:

"I'm making a playlist for my delivery. And I'm wondering, one, if you think I should use this song. And two, if I do, do you think I should use it first, last, somewhere in the middle… what do you think?"

The expectant mother then started playing the song which turned out to be Salt-N-Pepa's famous "Push It." The "Boys Don't Cry" star moved only her large belly as she danced to the music, creating an amusing sight.

In the caption, she wrote, "The important questions… Let me know your thoughts below, and tag any of your friends who might want to weigh in! ??." The clip got many responses from her fans, led by actor Michael Ealy who wrote, "DEFINITELY ❤️❤️❤️."

Some followers opined that the song was best played all through the delivery process, like this person who enthusiastically noted, "Just this on repeat for the whole thing!!! ??," and another who agreed, "I mean, on repeat us the only acceptable answer, let's be real!"

A third user humorously felt it should be on repeat, but only until she wanted to smash the speaker. While a fourth chose the middle, writing, "The middle when you are in pain. Then, maybe you will laugh ?❤️ and it won't think about the pain." A fifth also believed that adding it "multiple times in the playlist" was much better. 

Fans will recall that just last week, The Blast reported that the "Iron Jawed Angels" actress shared a heartwarming post, revealing the first glimpse of one of her babies. The twins are set to arrive on April 16, which happens to be the same day as the birthday of her late father, Stephen Michael Swank, who passed away in 2021.

Swank posted the picture, reminding fans of how quickly time had passed. Although she is expecting twins, the ultrasound image showed only one of them. In the caption, she wrote, "Baby A flexing for the camera at their ultrasound. #TheRealMillionDollarBaby #Prizefighter."

She then mentioned her challenging experience with morning sickness, expressing relief that she's finally "feeling better."
