Mother's Day is a chance for all of us to recognize the most important women in our lives. While we think of ways to honor the mothers and mother-figures who raised us, many celebrities are doing the same. We asked stars like Octavia Spencer, T.I., Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and many more what lessons they learned from their No. 1 leading lady.

The answers vary — Dear White People director Justin Simien says "patience," while Tip claims his mom taught him "how not to forget where you came from" — but one thing is consistent across the board: it's the moms that keep these celebrities grounded.
Watch below to hear the stars give touching tributes to their mommas — and don't forget to call yours this Sunday!
