Trust Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi With Your Children

Whit Honea — Fri, 15 May 2009 19:11:00 GMT

According to a poll on ParentDish.com of 10,000 moms (sorry dads, nobody cares what you think- still) Ellen and her wife Portia de Rossi are the top pick for celebrity babysitters.

The fact that the couple does not have children of their own didn't deter moms from feeling comfortable with their child-rearing potential. They received 31% of the votes followed by another star sans child, Jennifer Aniston, who received 22%. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt came in third with 18% and Oprah finished with just 9%. However, and this is just my opinion, I think Oprah is more likely to buy everyone involved a car, so there's that.

What do you think about these results? What celebrity would you consider leaving your child with (not forever, Madonna- sorry)?

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell Taste Freedom (and Dinner)

Whit Honea — Sat, 21 Feb 2009 14:07:00 GMT

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell have escaped! The couple was able to leave their new twins at home and enjoy a meal. Just them!

Please note the shellshocked daze about them. That is a typical condition of new parents and usually fades after the first 18 years.

Teri Hatcher: Playdate At The White House?

Sassy Smith — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 12:04:00 GMT

Teri Hatcher arrived at the 15th Annual Screen Actors Guild in Los Angeles Sunday night, looking very, uh, festive. I'm still undecided about her dress - it sort of looks like it's made of layers of tissue paper. But then again, I'm not into couture.

Couple more pics after the jump!

Dress aside, the Desperate Housewives actress dished on the red carpet, saying she'd love to babysit the Obama girls, Malia and Sasha.

Hatcher said, "I end up being the great babysitter at every event I ever go to. They'd come my way and I'd be the babysitter, which would be just fine...If we're ever so lucky to be invited."

Who knows? Maybe she and daughter Emerson Rose, 11, will someday be invited to the White House!

Okay - back to the dress - do you like it or not?

Joel McHale, Keith Olbermann and a Baby

Whit Honea — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 20:56:00 GMT

What has two thumbs and can't find a babysitter? This guy!

Joel McHale of "Soup" fame is super dad! He took his new baby on Keith Olbermann's show to crawl all over the desk (and pee on his dad). Don't they have interns at MSNBC?

This just in, baby Isaac is awesome!

Don Cheadle's Babysitting Service to the Stars

Whit Honea — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 21:18:00 GMT

Don Cheadle's friends, Brad Pitt and Matt Damon, have both had babies recently- well, their wives did, but you get the idea.

Cheadle got an idea, too. He says that he and Brad, "text back and forth, and Matt and I text back and forth; everybody's got new babies now, so it's really cool. Now, you know, my kids are at the age where they can be babysitting their kids."

This looks like a possible goldmine for the Cheadle kids. Dad makes a pretty good agent.

Keri Russell Dishes on Family Life

Karen — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 19:09:00 GMT

It seems Keri Russell is one happy mama. In a lengthy interview with USA Today, Keri talks about her appreciation for the little things.

Russell finds cleaning her house to be "therapuetic," buys her own clothes and totes a white cotton bag with "Certified Organic Mom" emblazened on it, instead of a designer purse.

Unlike a lot of celebs, Russell does not emply a nanny: "I want to raise my kid. I was totally being a martyr at first, thinking I could totally do it on my own. And I did, for a while," until a few weeks ago when she hired her first sitter and I rolled my eyes when I had to report that as news.

She concluded her interview with a quickie statement: "As much as I don't regret my life," (as an actress growing up in front of cameras) she says, "I value so much being at home for dinner with my family."

Keri Russell Visits Yappy Birds

Karen — Mon, 19 Nov 2007 14:04:00 GMT

Last week, I guess Keri Russell visited those nattering hags that make up The View. I was on a beach in a country that doesn't care about American celebrities but Whit told me so I have to believe him.

Russell spoke of her labour with baby River, garnering huge sympathy from the clucking hens when it was revealed that said labour was 38 hours. I have no idea what was mostly said and neither does anyone else because they all never. stop. talking. over. each. other. If I was the boss of the hot mess that is The View, I would change the cast to all men and talk sports. And by all men, I do not mean Rosie O'Donnell, for once.

When asked by Sherri Shepard how she lost all the baby weight so quickly, Russell responded, “I would love to say I worked out every day. But it’s truly genetics. You have what you have, and then you work hard or you don’t. And I…It was genetics.” Oh boy, here we go again. Go Leafs Go!

Here is Russell toting homemade pastries at a wine tasting in California. Yum.

That's Hot! Paris Hilton is Having a Baby Shower for Nicole Richie

sweatpantsmom — Sun, 18 Nov 2007 15:05:00 GMT

If you're reading this you obviously haven't been invited to Nicole Richie's baby shower that's taking place today. Me and Nicole are tight, so I'm pretty sure my invitation got lost in the mail. But I've been sleeping better just knowing that Paris and Nicole have patched things up. Nicole will need Paris to lean on when she's hard up for a babysitter, or to drive carpool once Paris gets those DUIs off her record.

In case you're thinking of crashing it, the affair is taking place at the Beverly Hills Hotel. The whole thing is being coordinated by exclusive party planner Mindy Weiss and will be DJ'd by Lindsay Lohan's former BFF Samantha Ronson. They even sent out a save the date card. I'm jealous. The last shower I went to? I was invited by a mass email and we all went to Coco's for tuna melts and Diet Cokes.

Keri Russell's Huge Panic, World Stops on It's Axis

Karen — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 16:32:00 GMT

Keri Russell recently told press that she *gasp* left her 4 month old with a *gasp* babysitter! Further to that, she says *gasp* "It's crazy — you kind of panic."

Crazy indeed. It's right up there with *gasp* feeding wild aligators, *gasp* curing diabeties,or *gasp* letting strange men snort cocaine off your chest. Next thing we know, Keri will *gasp* starting feeding her baby *gasp* solid foods or letting *gasp* Dog the Bounty Hunter watch her kid! *GASP*

Now, where is my freaking inhaler? I can't take this excitement.
