Jessica Biel isn't a regular mom, she's a cool mom — just don't ask her kids.

During an appearance on The Tonight Show on Tuesday (May 20), the Better Sister star explained to host Jimmy Fallon how her two sons with husband Justin Timberlake, 10-year-old Silas and 4-year-old Phineas, keep her humble, even joking that her youngest's "new phrase" is "Mom, you have the worst ideas," per Page Six.

Biel added that Silas also makes sure she keeps her distance at his baseball games.

"Silas is like, 'Don't engage mom. Back up off the field,'" she said. The Candy actress noted that she'll defend herself by claiming to only be saying "good job" to which he would bluntly reply, "say nothing."

However, she is still able earn some "cool points" in her sons' eyes thanks to one of her famous co-stars. Biel is set to star alongside John Cena in the upcoming movie Matchbox, which her kids are all for. During a Mother's Day project at school, Phineas even referred to his mom as "John Cena's friend."

"I got some cool points for that. [Cena is] a love-able dude. They are just crazy about him," she said, jokingly adding that she will have to find a new family "if John and I ever fall out and we're not friends anymore."

As for who the cool parent is, that's all Timberlake. Admitting "I am so lame to them," Biel said her husband earns that title because of his "music element" and for being "daddy."
