Kimora Lee Simmons already has three kids. There are her two daughters with ex-husband, Russell Simmons, and 10 months ago she gave birth to Kenzo, her son with second husband, actor Djimon Hounsou.

She'd like to have one more. But that would be it for this 34-year-old model-turned-mogul. Kimora is no Kate Gosselin—even if she has a reality show, too...

"I would never do a show like [Jon & Kate Plus 8]," Simmons tells me. "My show is not like that. My show is about me as a businesswoman. My kids are the B-story or C-story…You're just not watching them run through the house and have temper tantrums and pick out what they're eating for dinner."

In fact, daughters Ming, 10, and Aoki, 7, aren't allowed to watch Mommy's Style Network reality series, Kimora: Life in the Fab Lane. Or much of any television, for that matter.

"We just don't watch a lot of TV," Simmons said. "TV's kind of crap. Even the news is kind of crap."

Guess that means no Jersey Shore?

"Absolutely not!" Simmons said. "I have a house in Jersey. I don't need to know what the kids are doing on the shore. I can only imagine. I've seen the hair—no, thank you!"

The new season of Kimora: Life in the Fab Lane premieres Sunday night on the Style Network.
