Parenting within the digital age comes with loads of challenges, and whereas most celebrities fear about their children stumbling throughout clickbait headlines or paparazzi images, Wednesday solid member Riki Lindhome has a barely extra… particular concern. In a music video that completely blends humor and honesty, Lindhome debuts her newest comedy music, “Don’t Google Mommy”—a hilariously self-aware plea for her younger son to withstand the urge to go looking her title on-line.
That is as a result of if he does, he gained’t simply discover a record of the greatest streaming companies to subscribe to or his mother’s challenge on the 2025 Netflix schedule—he’ll uncover an entire lot extra. However hey, if curiosity will get the perfect of him, no worries—she’s already budgeting for the remedy invoice.
The music, which the Emmy-nominated actress wrote and carried out, was posted on her YouTube channel and shortly racked up 88K views. It’s a lighthearted but brutally sincere tackle what occurs when a toddler finally discovers their mother and father don’t simply carry out within the greatest household films, have a look:

Recognized for her comedy, music, and appearing work, the Garfunkel and Oates alum has by no means shied away from risqué materials—one thing she now realizes could be a bit awkward for her child down the highway. Set to a lullaby-like melody, “Don’t Google Mommy” begins off with seemingly harmless parental recommendation—like not working with scissors and at all times being good—earlier than taking a hysterically R-rated flip. The true message? No matter you do, don’t Google your mom.
Lindhome hilariously acknowledges her quite unfiltered profession in comedy music, together with previous songs about… effectively, some very grownup subjects. From discussing bed room actions to a now-infamous music about “loving Jesus” in a really non-traditional manner, she makes it clear that her comedic previous could be a little bit stunning for her future PTA conferences.
Within the music video, the My Greatest Buddy’s Lady actress even pokes enjoyable at her appearing profession, joking about her on-screen nudity, singing:
Mommy’s an actress and generally she acts / In scenes which can be naughty / Now everybody at Gymboree can see your mommy’s physique.
The Duncansville voice actress (you’ll be able to try the present with a Hulu subscription) isn’t simply cringing at her personal work although. She’s totally embracing the inevitable awkwardness. She even makes a beneficiant (and doubtless vital) promise to her son: “I promise to pay to your remedy.”
The music wraps up on a hilarious but heartfelt be aware, acknowledging that whereas her previous content material won’t be kid-friendly, it did play a task in securing her son’s future. The previous Enjoyable Dimension star jokingly credit her YouTube success in 2007 for serving to fund his personal college schooling—so, in a manner, there’s a little bit of a silver (spoon?) lining to the entire thing. Nonetheless, I’d advocate the little tike head is mom’s recommendation and do not Google her. Nevertheless, as he grows up, he can stay up for what she works on subsequent.
Lindhome’s return for the upcoming second season of Wednesday appears unlikely, contemplating how her character’s arc wrapped up in Season 1. Nevertheless, something is feasible in a world full of supernatural twists and darkish fantasy—so by no means say by no means. Within the meantime, you’ll be able to rewatch her function within the first season with a Netflix subscription.
As for her music, “Don’t Google Mommy” is featured on Riki Lindhome’s upcoming solo album, No Worries If Not, set to drop on March 14. The album additionally consists of her beforehand launched singles, “Center Age Love” and “So Lengthy, Farewell.” And whereas all of us ought to Google these titles and assist her comedy, her son ought to keep distant from that.
