Kimora Lee's Baby Gets A Name

Josh loposer — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 20:00:00 GMT

Kimora Lee and boyfriend Djimon Hounsou's son, born early Saturday, now has a name, according to Kimora's Twitter page. It's Kenzo Lee Hounsou.

Kenzo is Kimora's third child -- the other two were with ex Russell Simmons -- and Djimon's first child. Congratulations guys.

The Phat Fashions CEO promises to send baby pics just as soon as she can. Coming up with a name for you newborn should probably take priority over sending baby pics out to the media and your followers on Twitter.

Now that the name's out of the way though, maybe it's time for some family photos? She did send out a pic of herself in the hospital bed.

Kimora's other two daughters, Ming Lee, 9, and Aoki, 6, must be excited about having a new brother. Congrats, guys.

Oh That Face! Jessica Alba & Honor Marie

Sassy Smith — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 19:03:00 GMT

Look at the priceless expression on Honor Marie's face! What do you suppose she's thinking? Looks like Jessica Alba's nearly one-year-old daughter is not pleased with her mom. Maybe she doesn't like the outfit she chose for her? Or perhaps she's not feeling the hair barrette? Or maybe Honor was really hoping to stop at Starbucks and Jess put the kibosh on that?

One more pic after the jump

Jessica and Honor were spotted running errands in Beverly Hills. Honor will celebrate her first birthday on June 7.

Britney Has ANOTHER Secret!

Sassy Smith — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 18:04:00 GMT

Britney Spears is just full of surprises! We heard about her surgery secrets and she has another, and this one might help moms who are feeling tired!

From Showbiz Spy:

Britney Spears says her life’s different when she’s on tour — because she goes to bed earlier than she would do normally.

“I like going to bed early and getting up early,” the singer, 27, tells the UK’s More! magazine in a new interview. “I just think it’s a much better way to live my life, especially when I have my kids — I need to have a lot of energy because they just have so much energy themselves!”

Spears also revealed the secret to her incredibly toned body. “I used to be a workout freak,” she says, “but after I had my kids it was a lot harder for me to get back into that routine.

“I used to love going to the gym but then as you get older and you have more responsiblities you lose that kind of discipline. Even now I have a much harder time getting mentally psyched to train, but once I’m in the gym I start getting into it and I feel great.”

OK, going to bed early and so one can wake up early is more of a common sense thing than a secret. My bad. But it's great that Britney has lots of energy for her sons - according to reports, those boys are busy little bees!

Nicole & Keith: NO Adoption!

Sassy Smith — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 17:07:00 GMT

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban have one child together, Sunday Rose, (Nicole has teen kids with ex Tom Cruise) and the couple have been talking about expanding their family. There are pregnancy rumors for Nicole and adoption gossip, too. Well, scrap the adoption talk!

From Showbiz Spy:

Nicole Kidman has shot down claims she and her country music star husband Keith Urban are looking to adopt a Vietnamese baby.

The couple had reportedly approached the Vietnamese authorities to begin the process of finding a sibling for daughter Sunday Rose, who turns one next month.

Dang Minh Dao, deputy of the Department of International Adoption at the Ministry of Justice in Hanoi told Australia’s New Idea magazine: “Yes, Nicole Kidman wants a baby from Vietnam.

“We’ve been approached by the American Embassy.”

Dang refused to say whether the couple had discussed having a boy or a girl, saying, “This is very sensitive information. We are keeping it closed.”

But Nicole’s spokeswoman has spoken out to set the record straight.

“I am aware of this rumor out of Australia’s New Idea tabloid,” the rep said. “It is a complete fabrication, there is no truth to it whatsoever.”

So, no adoption. Let's focus on the bump rumors, shall we?

Octo-Mom Rips On Kate's "Boxy" Bikini Body

Josh loposer — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 16:32:00 GMT

The world's most ridiculous celebrity catfight just got turned up a notch. After criticizing Kate Gosselin's "desperate" attempts to exploit her celebrity status, now Nadya's slamming Kate's bikini bod and ripping up her picture in disgust.

Maybe it's pure jealousy that is fueling the Octo-Mom's hatred of all things Kate Gosselin these days ... but she seems to be holding nothing back. In a hilariously hypocritical video interview with Radar, Nadya went off on how unimpressed Kate looked in her recent bikini pics.

According to Nadya, Gosselin is a "cheater" for getting a tummy tuck in order to get back to her pre-baby figure -- because according to Nadya, she's never had any cosmetic surgery (especially not creepy lip implants to look like Angelina Jolie, wink wink). Says Octo-Mom:

"I look like this [indicating a picture of Kate on the beach]. I have a better shape though. I'm sorry, no offense to her but ... I think women should have more smaller waists."

According to Nadya, she's called the "rubberband" by friends because she naturally snaps back into shap after childbirth. As she talks about her dress size, a few of her 14 kids run around unsupervised in the back yard, whacking at things with a bat. Comedy gold.

Nadya also complained that the pictures look "staged," and that Kate wore the bikini strickly for the purpose of getting in the tabloids: "It's just my opinion, but I think some people are very desperate for attention."

I don't know why Octo-Mom feels so critical towards Kate, and I don't care. What I'm really blown away by is how Radar got street-rat-crazy Octo-Mom to start trash-talking Kate Gosselin on camera. That is brilliant.

Teri Hatcher Likes to Gamble, Says It's to Teach Her Daughter Math

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 15:05:00 GMT

Desperate Housewives star Teri Hatcher likes to hit the track every once in a while, but don't think she's just throwing her money away. Hatcher says she uses the outing to help daughter Emerson Rose, 11, with her math skills.

"I go to the track with my mother and my daughter,’ the actress says of her annual Mother's Day outing with Emerson and her own mom, Esther. ‘I do use the opportunity to make [Emerson] understand math, and what you’re betting and what you get back. This year, she did all the winning.

"I gave her a certain amount of dollar bills and she knew she had to divide them up by how many races there were, and figure out the odds…I made myself believe I was giving her math lessons. So we work on math. It’s fun."

I don't blame Teri - us moms have to get creative to justify our personal time. For example, I use my daily Starbucks runs to teach my daughters about caffeine addiction, and how to hone their people skills. You won't get that extra shot of espresso for free if you're mean to the barista.

Jon & Kate Plus 8: Kate Leaves Jon

Sassy Smith — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 14:06:00 GMT

Is there any hope for Jon and Kate Gosselin? Can this couple keep their family together? Or is the writing on the wall?

From PEOPLE:

On Monday’s episode of Jon & Kate Plus Eight, Kate Gosselin spent her birthday without her husband Jon, who was away on a snowboarding trip.

“I went out to Utah for like five days,” he says in the episode filmed in March. “I just wanted to get back out there and ride with my friends. It just happened to fall on Kate’s birthday.”

But Kate wasn’t alone. Her eight kids, with help from the show’s producers, surprised her with a bus ride to Charm City Cakes, the bakery featured on the show Ace of Cakes.

There, Kate was surprised with a pink lemon birthday cake and her kids got to decorate cakes of their own with globs of colorful icing. It looked “like a rainbow vomited,” Kate said.

“This season, sometimes you’ll see Kate and I interview separately. Sometimes you’ll see us interview together on the chair,” Jon explained in a voiceover. “It depends how things are going. We have busy schedules.”

In the second of two new episodes Monday night, their schedules kept them apart again. This time, however, Kate took their daughter Madelyn, 8, to San Diego while Jon stayed home with her twin sister Cara and their six younger brothers and sisters.

While Kate and Madelyn hung out on the beach and got pedicures, Jon put together the slide for a swing-set he was building, and took the kids on a hike in the woods, where one of the sextuplets, Alexis, tripped with her hands in her pockets, fell and bit through her lip.

Jon called the kids’ pediatrician and then informed Kate of the news.

“We usually don’t call,” Jon says of the couple’s understanding.

“No news is good news,” Kate explained.

The Gosselins did come together to film their confessionals, sitting as far apart as possible in their famous loveseat or with Madelyn between them, but didn’t directly address their recent marital problems.

Does it still seem like Jon has one foot out the door of their marriage? Does Kate want to make it work? Do the kids feel the tension?

Dressing Up for Red Carpet Not Fun for Pregnant Maya Rudolph

Karl Erikson — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 13:35:00 GMT

Pregnant comedienne Maya Rudolph stars in the new movie "Away We Go" with The Office star John Krasinski and it looks pretty funny. In the movie, Maya had to wear a make-believe baby bump. But she's not sporting a fake bump these days. The mom of 3-1/2-year-old Pearl is expecting Baby #2 with husband Paul Thomas Anderson.

When she showed up at the red carpet affair for her new movie premiere (which opens Friday), she talked about getting all dolled up for these Hollywood affairs. In short, "not fun."

"I do my best," Maya said. "This is super dressed up." Talking about her pregnancy, she said, "I was sick as a dog for the first trimester, but now I'm totally fine."

Sam Mendes, director of Rudolph's new movie, joked, "It's an amazing act of selflessness that Maya Rudolph agreed to become pregnant a second time to promote this movie."

Kate Gosselin Bikini Pics: Why?

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 13:05:00 GMT

Hey look - it's another picture of Kate Gosselin in a bikini. The mother of eight hasn't been shy about flaunting her bod on the beach lately and why not - when your husband is out drinking and shopping with other women a girl's got a right to display the goods. Besides, I hear bodyguards really dig two-pieces.

Also, it could have something to do with the news that the number of viewers of Monday's episodes of Jon & Kate Plus 8 dropped significantly; on Kate's latest beach outing she was accompanied by a camera crew for her TLC reality show. Nothing like showing a little skin to bring the viewers back.

Russell Simmons Gives Praise To Ex Kimora Lee

Sassy Smith — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 12:32:00 GMT

Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee Simmons are no longer a couple, but the two have remained friendly because they have two daughters together - Ming Lee, 9, and Aoki, 6. And Russell always has kind words for the mother of his girls.

From OK!:

What are his tips for an amicable split?

"You smile no matter what happens, and you keep smiling. During a marriage, they say you make a tremendous compromise. Men say all the time they just be quiet. You've gotta be quiet 24 hours. It's OK if you're separate and can be quiet, but it's a mess if you talk. You just learn to be a little bit accepting and promote tolerance and act and be tolerant yourself. Allow each other a little freedom, and faith."

Russell is proud of how Kimora is raising the girls:

"The thing that makes me most inspired is when there was some celebrity who was in the Hamptons and I just missed her. And they asked me, 'did I want to see her?' and I said 'I'll catch her later.' They said 'well, your daughter would like to see her.' And she's just one of those celebrities who runs around. They said, 'well your daughter would love to see her.' I said, 'would you like to see -- the name of this celebrity?'"What celebrity?'"Doesn't matter. And she said, 'no, no, I think she makes bad choices.' That's what Ming Lee told me. That to me reminded me that their mother has been doing such a good job with them because she knows what's a good choice already."

What does Russell love most about being a dad?

"The innocence is inspiring. The way young people think, you want to think like them so they teach you a lot. Having a child teaches you so much. That really is the best part of being a dad. You remember what's important in life."

Kathie Lee Has Advice For The Gosselins

Josh loposer — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 12:00:00 GMT

On Monday's edition of the Today Show, Kathie Lee Gifford offered up some backhanded advice for Jon & Kate: Get the heck off my TV!

Actually, that's what tons of Americans were thinking. What Kathie actually meant was to stop doing their ridiculously popular show and try to pick up the pieces.

"I would turn off the cameras if I were them and just work on healing together as a family. Who knows the long-term damage something like this could do?," Gifford suggests.

"I understand they are making a living, but you have to wonder at what price."

Sure Kathie, they'll just turn off the cameras, break contract and lose a ton of money ... that's really going to solve a lot of freaking problems for the Gosselins.

The truth is, if even a few of the cheating rumors are true, the marriage is probably doomed (as it appears to be) and the best thing Jon & Kate can do is to keep milking their franchise until it runs dry. I mean, 8 kids, six will be going to college at exactly the same time ... the money will come in handy.

Guess it's been awhile since Kathie had to worry about her finances.

Brad Pitt's Secret B.O. Killer: Baby Wipes

Josh loposer — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 11:00:00 GMT

Being a parent teaches you all sorts of life lessons - not just how to change a diaper. For Brad Pitt, fatherhood has taught him how to MacGyver his way out of embarrassing body odor.

Here's what Brad shared with Eli Roth during filming for Tarantino's Inglorius Basterds:

"He shared that when you're sweating and don't have time to take a shower, you just take a baby wipe and rub it under your armpits," Pitt's costar and pal Eli Roth told PEOPLE at Saturday's Spike TV Guys Choice 2009 in Los Angeles, set to air on the cable network June 21 at 10 p.m.

"After a scene, Brad had to get next to me for a close-up shot, and he said, 'Damn, you're ripe,' " recalls Roth, 37. "I said, 'I didn’t have time to shower.' He said, 'Baby wipes, man, baby wipes.' "

When it came to Pitt's pits, Roth said the leading man explained, "I got six kids. All you've got to do is just take them, a couple quick wipes under the pits." Pitt further said, "Man, I'm getting [peed] on all day. I don't have time to take a shower."

Nice tip, huh? I'm considering forgoing showers completely and opting for a few cases of baby wipes. OK, not really.

Still, this priceless piece of fathering advice should definitely be put in a book along with tons of other hacks for making fatherhood simpler for dudes. The probelm is, no dudes would probably read it -- unless you filled it with how-to illustrations of hot bikini babes.

Britney Brings Kids Along For NC-17 Tour?

Josh loposer — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 22:30:00 GMT

If the performances on the UK leg of Britney's Circus tour are titillating, then the after parties are downright X-rated. Topless burlesque dancers, naked acrobats, and dancing dwarves are all reportedly part of the act.

Hold up ... isn't this the tour that Britney threatened to cancel if her kids couldn't come along?

That's right, back in February Britney was demanding that Sean Preston and Jayden James had to be on the bus with her. I'm guessing they're probably not invited to the after parties - all things considered, they probably shouldn't even be allowed at the shows.

So far, the Circus tour has been absolutely filled with weird, embarrassing mishaps for Britney, see here, here, and here.

Here's the big question, can nanny K-Fed keep himself away from the debauchery, or will he end up blowing the money Britney pays him to be the nanny on hiring a sitter so he can check out the dancing dwarves??? That's a tough call.

Is Angelina Jolie Faking It?

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 22:05:00 GMT

It was the bump heard 'round the world: Angelina Jolie suffered a head injury on Friday while performing a stunt on the set of her film Salt. But was the whole thing just a publicity stunt? A production assistant on the set says Angie definitely needs to have her head examined, but not for a physical injury.

According to the source, the actress' 'injury' was really just a way to get attention and publicity. “She hit her head lightly and there was no scratch evident,” the production assistant says. "There was absolutely no reason to take her to the hospital. She was whisked away as if she had just been shot. Everybody on the set thought this was a scene being filmed for the movie."

So why would she need any more attention - she's Angelina Jolie for crying out loud. Brad has been in the press frequently, often seen shuttling the couple's six kids around Long Island while mom is busy filming, so maybe it was Angie's way of getting back in the spotlight? Maybe Brad gave her a really crappy Mother's Day gift and this was her way of making him feel sorry for her? Perhaps she just wanted a little R&R and the idea of being away from the kids in a hospital bed with a 24-hour nurse sounded really good?

Or maybe she really did injure herself and those of us who doubt her are in for some really bad karma?

Heather Mills' Leg Goes Flying In Supermarket Tumble

Josh loposer — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 21:02:00 GMT

This is so wrong ... but sooo funny. On her Twitter site, Beatle ex-wife Heather Mills confirmed that she and her leg were recently involved in an incident that sent her prosthetic leg flying through a supermarket.

“Slipped on spilled milk while being followed down supermarket aisle by two teenage boys, ended up on my ass but they rescued my leg and me,” Heather thanked her ‘heroes’ and is believed to have been left relatively unhurt by the accident.

Personally, I still can't believe that this didn't happen at least once during the filming of Dancing with the Stars. I really hope Heather's 5 year-old daughter Beatrice wasn't around to witness the fall. I bet that would be pretty traumatizing, seeing your amputee mother take a nasty spill and see her leg go flying off. Yikes.

Glad to hear that she was unhurt. That supermarket's pretty lucky, if she weren't trying to sell boatloads of veggie burgers, she'd probably sue the pants off of them...

Get a Room: Halle Berry and Jamie Foxx Heat Up The Spike TV Awards (PHOTOS)

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 20:12:00 GMT

Halle Berry, you've just been given the Decade of Hotness award by Spike TV - what are you going to do now? She didn't go to Disneyland, I can tell you that much. After Jamie Foxx presented Halle with the award, the two of them proceeded to make out like a couple of teenagers in heat. A couple of unbelievably gorgeous, wildly rich teenagers in heat.

The two locked lips and then starting groping each other; first Jamie grabbed Halle's ass, and then Halle grabbed Jamie's package. Wow - and I thought Bruno's bare butt-cheeks were the hottest thing I'd ever seen on an awards show.

I wonder if Halle's daughter Nahla was watching? If not, someday she'll be able to Google these photos. Then, Halle can just tell her that Mommy was grabbing Uncle Jamie down there because she was looking for that pack of gum in his pocket.

Here's the photos. Try not to drool on your keyboard.

Confirmed: Bruno's Assault On Eminem Was Staged!

Josh loposer — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 19:35:00 GMT

In case you hadn't figured it out by now, Sacha Cohen will not be charged with aggravated assault for his "accidental" teabagging of Eminem at Sunday's MTV Movie Awards - it was all staged and rehearsed.

Comedy writer Scott Auckerman of Mr. Show with Bob and David fame has come clean so that the rest of humanity can now go about the rest of their lives. From his blog:

"Yes, the Bruno/Eminem incident was staged. That’s all anyone wants to talk about, so let’s get it out of the way. They rehearsed it at dress and yes, it went as far as it did on the live show then. Okay, you can stop reading this blog now!"

Keep in mind, those last words were his, not mine.

So, to answer the question, what did Cohen's daughter Olive think about all this, I have to wonder. Is it better to explain to your 20 month-old daughter: daddy accidentally teabagged Mr. Eminem, OR daddy stuck his butt in that man's face on purpose because it's funny?

Christian Bale's Wife Doesn't Put Up With His Moods

trix — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 17:02:00 GMT

I would love to be on the wall in the Bale household when Christian got in to a mood and his wife told him to stuff it. Ah yes, that would be awesome.

Christian Bale described his wife as “strong” and ‘feisty” and said said she, “doesn’t take any nonsense”. It seems that in real life, movie stars are just like us regular folk and don’t get away with everything, in the presence of the ones that love us.

He also said she enjoys the characters he brings home. “My attitude does change at home, depending on which character I’m playing, but Sibi likes that. She thinks it’s quite cool. You can look at it in two ways. You can think, ‘That poor woman, forced to put up with that.’ Or, ‘What an incredibly lucky woman, who gets to be with all these different, guys all the time.’”

I’m guessing she thinks the latter.

He says he brings his work home with him, but does it confuse his daughter? He didn’t address that issue, but I bet he’s always the same with her, no matter what character he’s playing at the moment. He’s always daddy to her.

Kelly Rutherford - Any Day Now

trix — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 16:00:00 GMT

Good thing Gossip Girl is finished filming, because Kelly Rutherford says she could give birth any day now.

Granted, she’s due next weekend, but feels her time is imminent.

How has she spent this pregnancy, did she exercise and watch every morsel she put in her mouth?

In a word, no. She says she and her mother have been having a grand old time buying girls clothes and, “I haven’t exercised once this time. I am so bad. I am like the worst example. I run around after [Hermes] all day and play. We end up going on play dates or in the pool or something. I think I am just so much more active being the mother of a two-year-old.”

She also says she’s craving a lot of frozen things, like Pinkberry.

Here’s hoping our crazy weather holds in Southern California for a few more days. It’s not super hot yet, which is a good thing when you are 9 months pregnant.

We’ll let you know as soon as we hear anything. . .

Britney's Surgery Secrets!

Sassy Smith — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 14:31:00 GMT

Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to spend thousands on your body after having kids? Britney Spears did just that! The 27-year-old pop star has reportedly spent a ton of cash to help get herself back in shape.

Brit's put a lot of hard work into her new trim figure, but she's also spent a lot of money.

A source said, "Britney looks fantastic, but it took hard work as well as surgeons’ skills to get there."

"Britney was obsessed with looking like a hottie again, and after two kids, she had to really push herself. But she did it - and it cost her $350,000!"

Spears also stuck to a strict diet and rigorous workouts. "She also works-out with a personal trainer at a cost of $6,000 a month," added the pal. "Britney cut out sugar, and ate fruit, fresh vegetables and baked chicken.

"Britney was doing more than a thousand stomach crunches a day before the boys were born. Her goal now is to beat that record, but she's thrilled with the way she looks."

After her boys were born, Britney reportedly had a mini tummy tuck at a cost of $4,500 and breast-lift surgery, which coost $8,000.

The insider added, "Her body looks hard and her stomach is flat, and she doesn't care how much it cost her to get there. She's proud of her body again."

What happens if she gets pregnant again? More surgery?

66-Year-Old Mom Welcomes Home New Baby

trix — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 13:30:00 GMT

We all heard about Elizabeth Adeney’s pregnancy at 66 years of age and were astounded, at least I was.

Actually I was a little more amazed than anything, that anyone would want to have a baby that late in life. It gave me the shivers. Anywho, Ms. Adeney gave birth to a bouncing baby boy, named Jolyon, who weighed in at 5lbs 3oz. The name means “young at heart”, which is something Elizabeth knows a little something about.

This was her first successful pregnancy, not for lack of trying. She and her husband tried for years with the help of IVF, but to no avail.

Congratulations Ms. Adeney, this is your dream come true.

Mel Loses His Cool At Church

Josh loposer — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 13:03:00 GMT

Is Mel Gibson losing his grip? Mel reportedly freaked out at Sunday services, berating the members of his church for supposedly spreading rumors and gossip about him and his pregnant wife Oksana Grigorieva.

He even threatened to shut the church down if people didn't stop gossiping about his baby mama.

“[His] holier than thou world is falling apart around him — all these years he’s been preaching the good holy word, and now that the wizard’s curtain has been pulled back, we find that Mel hasn’t been practicing what he preaches.”

“He paced back and forth, furiously telling the congregation that he would not stand by and be judged and scrutinized,” the source added.

“Mel got up on his stage — the altar — and went off. He tried to intimidate the parishioners by staring at everyone with his angry eyes. Mel even threatened to shut down the church if people kept gossiping about him.

“The bottom line is that if Mel hadn’t cheated on his wife and gotten his Russian girlfriend pregnant, there wouldn’t be much to gossip about — he created this mess, and now he’s trying to control it.

“He’s definitely feeling the heat for it.”

Sure, some rumors about Mel's erratic behavior in the last few weeks were probably exaggerated, but chastising members of his own weird church? It's really pretty hard to see how that could get taken too out of context.

The weird thing is that he really could shut the church down, because he bankrolls it. Is this not the most egomaniacal thing you've ever heard of?

Hopefully, this news is not true, because that's a terrible example for Mel's 7, soon to be 8, kids. Plus, it's a pretty awful way to start a new family with Oksana.

(just to clarify, the picture above with the fire and Viking hat was not taken while Mel was yelling at churchgoers)

Nicole Kidman Planning A Vietnam Adoption?

trix — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 19:32:00 GMT

Nicole Kidman may be telling the truth about not being pregnant. However, she still may be expecting another child.

There is a new rumor that she and her hubby Keith Urban are interested in adopting a Vietnamese baby. There is also confirmation of the rumor from a deputy of the Department of International Adoption.

I didn't know they were allowed to give out information like that.

If they are planning to adopt, they must be super excited, but a little stressed out. Nicole has gone through the adoption before, so she knows how nerve racking it can be.

Congrats to the couple! Here's hoping Sunday gets a sibling, sooner rather than later.

Nicole, Joel, And Harlow Rock Kidstock

Josh loposer — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 19:01:00 GMT

Pretty much everything is cuter in miniature: ponies, White Castle burgers, even ~~midgets~~ little people -- so why wouldn't the same apply to outdoor concerts? Apparently, celebrity parents with a touch of hippie in their bloodlines have already figured this out.

Joel Madden and Nicole Richie made brought Harlow out to this year's 3rd annual Kidstock Music and Art Festival at the Greystone Mansion to revel in the music and art of a tiny generation. In order to blend in with the trippy psychedelic surroundings, they opted to dress Harlow up in flowery hippie-chic style.

Who enjoys Kidstock the most: kids or parents? Maybe it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to hold an outdoor music and art festival for toddlers -- since they would probably have more fun in almost any sandbox -- but it is super cute to think about announcements coming over the PA about bad brown gummy worms.

Plus, it provides us with awesome shots of stars hanging out with their little ones.

Tina Fey Takes Her Daughter to Work

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 18:35:00 GMT

Tina Fey was spotted taking daughter Alice, 3, to the movies in Santa Monica on Saturday. For a writer and producer like Tina, I guess this could be considered Take Your Daughter to Work Day. At least that's what I call it when I invite my daughters to sit in my office and watch me blog.

I just read that Tina and Robert Downey, Jr. are going to voice characters in a movie for Dreamworks. Titled Oobermind, the movie stars Downey as "a supervillain who pines for the good old days after finally defeating his arch nemesis." It doesn't say what part Tina would play, but I'll bet it's the Gwyneth-Paltrow-Iron-Man-Secretary part. Too bad - Tina would kick ass as the arch nemesis.
