Mark Wahlberg Doesn't Have Enough Kids

Mark Wahlberg's son Brendan Joseph is now a month old and Mark was happy to talk about him recently on the Tonight Show. Mark was there for the birth, of course, but he happened to be silent during the whole thing. He had vocal cord damage that meant he couldn't talk for 18 days. "It was very frustrating," Mark said. "I was writing on notepads to communicate, while my son was practicing karate on me."

It's a Baby Mustache for Jude Law...Isn't it Cute?

Wow, that's one cool porn 'stache Jude Law is sporting. OK, it's not really cool, but give him a break. He's just started growing it. It's like the 'stache I was forced to shave off by my parents when I was 14 in a very traumatic incident my family calls The Great Baby Hair Debacle of 1982. We don't talk about it.

Christian Slater Does Right By His Kids

Talk about being a good father. Christian Slater was so set on proving the importance of education to his kids that he went back to school to get his GED. Slater, 39, has a couple of kids with his ex, Ryan Haddon. 9-year-old son Jaden and 7-year-old daughter Eliana considered it odd that their father didn't graduate from high school. Thing is, Christian was far too busy being a child star to get his diploma...well, that's not entirely true. There are lots of child stars who still go to school and graduate with honors. Christian just didn't deem education very important in his youth.

Ricky Schroder Talks About Son's Accident

I have a difficult time seeing Ricky Schroder as a dad, since I still remember him in "Silver Spoons" and "The Champ." (Look it up on IMDB.) But Ricky, man, does he ever have kids...four of them. There's Holden, 16, Luke, 15, Cambry, 11, and Faith, 7. Yeah, our little Ricky's all growed up.

Tiger Woods Enjoying All the Family Time

Rock star golfer Tiger Woods could easily view all the recuperation time after his knee surgery a curse, but he sees it as more a blessing. The 32-year-old golfer now has a ton of time to spend at home with his family. Wife Elin is pregnant with their second child, but Sam Alexis, 15 months, is plenty enough to keep the couple busy.

Jeff Gordon's Life Much Busier Since Fatherhood

Jeff Gordon, NASCAR driver and new daddy to Ella Sofia, says that fatherhood came at the perfect time for him.

Who is the World's Rudest Celebrity?

James Morrison has branded one of the most popular superstars "the most impolite celebrity he's ever met." Morrison says, "I was recording in a studio in LA and she came in to speak to a producer and someone asked if I wanted to meet her. I'm not her biggest fan but thought I'd say hello so I went over and said: 'Hello, I'm James, nice to meet you,' and put my hand out to shake hands."

Who was it?

Shocker! Heather Mills Lied About Paul McCartney

OK, it's really not all that shocking. Heather Mills is a liar. Someone her age (40) doesn't marry someone Paul McCartney's age (66) for love. Yeah, maybe I'm cynical, but I'm also right. Mills shares a child with McCartney, 5-year-old Beatrice Milly McCartney.

Heather Mills' former PR person admits that Heather lied all throughout her divorce proceedings. Michele Elyzabeth quit as Mills' publicist in July, saying she was an "impossible woman" after 4 years in her employ.

Tiger Woods Uses More Water Than a Small City

Tiger's not such a tiger when it comes to being green. He's more like a pig. The Orlando Sentinel recently released the top water users for central Florida (which is where I live, for the record) and Tiger Woods was in the top three, using over 129,000 gallons of water a month at his $39 million Jupiter Island estate. Damn, that dude is thirsty. Tiger is the daddy of Sam, 1, and has been married to wife Elin for 4 years. They've just announced that they're expecting another baby this winter.

Audioslave Daddy Exposes His Child to Drugfest?

Audioslave front man Chris Cornell was out and about with little Toni at the Fashion Rocks thingie the other night at Radio City Music Hall. Just the sort of thing you want to take your child to, really. A bunch of emaciated supermodels and coked out rockers all celebrating what passes for fashion. Yep, that's where I'd take MY 4-year-old daughter. Give her all sorts of unhealthy images about what women should look like. Very healthy.

Malcolm McDowell Gonna Be a Daddy Again at 65!

That's right, super cool Malcolm McDowell is once again going to be a father and the man is 65! Master actor McDowell has been in some of the classic films, such as "A Clockwork Orange," "Voyage of the Damned," "Time After Time," and my personal favorite "Star Trek Generations." He's also done a lot of voicework for cartoons like "Superman," "Batman," "Justice League" and lately "Metalocalypse." But most recently, he's known to millions as Mr. Linderman on the hit NBC show "Heroes." Linderman died in the first season, but, well...
