Jennifer Hudson is Pregnant and Showered

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 01 Jun 2009 14:15:00 GMT

Jennifer Hudson is finally confirming that she is pregnant! And what an appropriate way to announce the big news - she released details about her baby shower. The Chicago Tribune is reporting that the mom-to-be was showered over the weekend at a small gathering held in a relatives home in downtown Chicago. Hudson is engaged to Harvard-educated-lawyer-turned-wrestler David Otunga.

"It was a baby shower, a quiet gathering of friends and mostly family," said Felicia Fields, a longtime friend of the actress. "They're really trying to keep it kind of quiet. It was a nice time that we had."

When asked about the gender of the baby, Fields replied, "They don't know."

Hudson certainly deserves some good news in her life; seven months ago her mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew were murdered.

The actress, 27, has declined to divulge any details about her upcoming wedding to Otunga, but she did tell USA Today that it will be "traditional, and very, very classy. I'll be surrounded by family and friends. I hope that when I'm 80 years old, people will still be talking about my wedding."

In an interview with Access Hollywood earlier this year, the actress also said she plans to include her three dogs - Oscar, Grammy and Dreamgirl -- in the ceremony. "Oscar might be the ring bearer. We'll send them down the aisle with a little tux."

Sending out congratulations to the parents-to-be!

Ellen Pompeo and Chris Ivery Get Game

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 29 May 2009 20:35:00 GMT

Ellen Pompeo and husband Chris Ivery were enjoying watching the L.A. Lakers trounce the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday at the Staples Center. I'm sure they're just as happy at the fact that Pompeo is pregnant with the couple's first child. And even happier that the baby wasn't due during the playoffs.

They both look like they are watching one of Kobe's three-pointers sail over the heads of the Nuggets, right into the basket. Either that or Jack Nicholson was caught dancing on the JumboTron again.

Here's another shot of Pompeo and her growing baby bump. Wonder if she's trying to score tickets for tonight's game?

Oh, and GO LAKERS.

This post does not necessarily reflect the views or team preference of all FameCrawler writers, although it should because the Lakers are clearly the better team.

It's Going To Be a Girl For Lakisha Jones

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 20 May 2009 22:35:00 GMT

Former American Idol contestant Lakisha Jones announced last month that she was pregnant, and now she's revealing that she and husband Larry Davis are expecting a daughter who they will name Ava. Jones also has a daughter Brionne, 6, from a previous relationship.

But Jones is less willing to divulge who's her favorite Idol contestant this season. ""I don't have [a favorite]," she said in an interview with PopEater. "They are all really good. One thing I do like about Adam is that he's unique. He can go from being a rocker with painted nail polish to clean cut, modern day Elvis Presley."

And who does she think will win? "It may have a twist ... no one really knows how many people voted for each contestant ... you never know what the outcome is ... it could be Kris Allen."

So, FameCrawler readers - who do you think will take the Idol crown tonight?

Sarah Michelle Gellar & Freddie Prinze Jr: It's A Girl!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 17 May 2009 14:08:00 GMT

Sarah Michelle Gellar and husband Freddie Prinze Jr. are expecting their first child this fall, and according to sources: It's a girl!

Gellar, 32, who is five months pregnant, was reportedly overheard on the set of her HBO pilot, The Wonderful Maladays, gushing about her daughter.

"Sarah's so excited, she's having a hard time keeping it a secret," said a set insider. "She's been letting little details slip here and there."

The former Buffy star has been busy decorating the nursery and planning for baby. "She's had her hands full. She's been spending her free time planning the nursery in their TriBeCa apartment while acting in the show and serving as executive producer at the same time. But she wants everything to be perfect by the time the baby comes," said the source.

"Sarah wants the room to look sophisticated, so nothing too frilly or princessy. She's been shopping for earth tones to mix with plum or magenta accents," according to the pal.

The first-time mom-to-be is said to be excited. "She's definitely taking the pregnancy well, and Freddie is also making things easier for her, which helps her de-stress. Sarah actually seems calmer and more relaxed than she was before getting pregnant!"

I'm Following You, Nicole Richie

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 05 May 2009 19:05:00 GMT

Pregnant Nicole Richie, Joel Madden and daughter Harlow prepare to catch a flight at LAX. I don't know where they were headed, but I do know that Nicole just trimmed Harlow's toenails. No, I wasn't hiding in the bushes outside her house - I saw it on her Twitter stream.

I also don't remember her Tweeting about Joel going blonde, but from the look on Harlow's face she's not too excited about dad's new haircolor. If Harlow were Twittering (and she probably is) her Tweet would probably say, "Some blonde dude is carrying me through the airport. Where's my daddy?"

Well, I would love to write more about them, but I need to check out Twitter and see what Nicole's having for lunch.

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 23:15:00 GMT

UK popster Lisa Scott-Lee doesn't waste any time. The former Steps member just gave birth to her first baby, Jaden, last February and now she and husband Johnny Shentall are expecting their second baby in October. Don't worry you two, you'll get a full night's sleep - sometime in 2015.

Is it just me or does Lisa look just like Tila Tequlia?

Just me? Okay, whatever.

Ellen Pompeo, Chris Ivery and the Baby Bump

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 13:05:00 GMT

Grey's Anatomy actress Ellen Pompeo and husband Chris Ivery were snapped hanging out in Beverly Hills over the weekend, but really what everyone is fixated on is Ellen's growing baby bump. The couple announced last week that they were expecting their first child. In fact I think Ellen is seen here texting the news into FameCrawler.

I don't watch Grey's, but I hear Ellen's character Meredith is getting ready to marry Patrick Dempsey's character Derek on the show, and they've even set up this fake website about the upcoming nuptials. Hope there's some burp cloths and a diaper bag on that gift registry.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z Go Shopping and Get Our Hopes Up

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 21:15:00 GMT

Poor celebrities. One minute they're minding their own business, picking up a few thousand dollars worth of toys and the next thing you know people are naming the baby and knitting them blankets. At least that's what happened to Beyoncé and Jay-Z when they took their nephew shopping to FAO Schwartz on Saturday.

According to OK! magazine, when the couple were spotted in the Baby and Pre-School section of the store, "gossiping shoppers might have suspected a little Jay Jr. might be on the way." Either that, or the outing with Beyonce's sister Solange's four-year-old son was seen as a "practice run" for the power couple's baby that we're all waiting for.

Not that we're pressuring you or anything, Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

But think of the tabloid possibilities when you guys do decide to get pregnant.

Not to mention how cute that little munchkin is going to be.

Don't keep us hanging.

Sarah Michelle Gellar & Her New Baby Bump

Sassy Smith — Sun, 19 Apr 2009 16:03:00 GMT

Former Buffy star Sarah Michelle Gellar and her husband, actor Freddie Prinze Jr., are expecting their first child this fall, and the 32-year-old actress has been spotted out, showing off her new baby bump.

One more photo after the jump

Okay - her bump is pretty non-existent at this point, but still, we know there's a baby in there! I'm betting she'll be a cute preggo even when she's 9 months and ready to pop!

Sarah, dressed in black, was spotted out in L.A. last Friday, and then she was seen again on Saturday with a friend and her baby, enjoying a walk after having lunch.

American Idol's Lakisha Jones is Pregnant

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 18:35:00 GMT

American Idol finalist Lakisha Jones and husband Larry Davis are expecting their first child together. The season 6 competitor (she finished fourth) also has a daughter, 6-year-old Brionne, who encouraged her to try out for AI. You know, I don't get it - my kids are always trying to get me not to sing.

Jones has a busy few months ahead of her - her debut album, “So Glad I’m Me,” hits the stores in May and the baby is expected in August.

But you won't hear her complaining. “Family is important to both of us, and so we’re really looking forward to our new baby’s arrival,” she says. “What can I say? With the baby coming and the release of my first album - when I think about all the goodness in my life right now, everyday I think ‘I’m so glad I’m me!” Hey, that would make a great name for an album.

Congrats to the expectant couple!

Taye Diggs and Idina Menzel Have a Baby on the Way

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:45:00 GMT

Taye Diggs and his wife Idina Menzel are expecting their first child later this year. I know most people know Diggs from Private Practice, but I still think of him as the stud from How Stella Got Her Groove Back, where he spent most of his time frolicking in the Jamaican sun with his shirt off. Let's just say there were more than a few women in that theater who were fantasizing about having his baby.

Diggs met the Tony Award-winning Menzel while both were starring in the original Broadway production of Rent in 1996 and have been together ever since.

Congrats to the expectant couple!

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden: Unplanned Parenthood

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 15:35:00 GMT

Nicole Richie, Joel Madden and their daughter Harlow were out shopping in L.A. last week, and Nicole showed off her growing baby bump. I think we all know how that baby got in there, but Joel wants to make one thing perfectly clear - it wasn't planned.

"We let love plan our babies. We said even before this one that we didn't know how many kids we were going to have - then we got pregnant!" the Good Charlotte frontman told Ryan Seacrest.

And another thing? Mother knows best.

"My mom called me and she's like, 'Is Nicole...?' Joel said. "Every time, I'm like, 'Mom, come on, seriously. I would tell you.' And then I swear, two weeks later it comes true. But we're excited about it. It's going to be great."

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden Look Good and Do Good

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 23:15:00 GMT

Joel Madden accompanied his pregnant wife Nicole Richie to The Richie-Madden Children Foundation's Cocktail Event in Los Angeles. The über-couple started the foundation shortly before daughter Harlow was born to provide opportunities to disadvantaged kids in the U.S. and abroad. Wow - attractive, rich and charitable - these two are a catch. I have a single girlfriend who might want to marry Nicole and Joel.

They recently announced that they are expecting their second child, and Joel took to his blog to let it all hang out. "I am so happy to tell everyone that Harlow is going to be a big sister. God has truly blessed my family. Hope (you're) all feeling as good as I am right now."

No Bull: Paz Vega is Definitely Pregnant

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 23:05:00 GMT

A pregnant Paz Vega was photographed with husband Orson Salazar and son Orson while walking around Spain. Paz' hometown is the Spanish town of Seville, and her father was a prominent bullfighter there. Wonder if little Orson has any interest in carrying on the tradition of his grandfather?

In an interview I did with her last November, Paz talked about her father and the rich tradition of bullfighting. "The thing about bullfighting is, if you only see that moment in the ring, you may think that it is cruel for the bull, but it's not like that. That bull – he grew up as a king. He lived on a hill, for four or five years, with call girls," she said laughing.

"He lived a wonderful life. I think it's more cruel when we eat meat from an animal that grew up in a cage, and then hast to die by electric shock. I think it's more beautiful that the bull had a real life."

Sounds like little Orson and his future sibling will have lots of stories to tell their friends as they grow up. "Grandpa was in a ring with a bull." How many kids get to say that?

Nicole Richie Shows Signs of Life

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 20 Mar 2009 19:25:00 GMT

In case you haven't heard the news, Nicole Richie is expecting her second child with boyfriend Joel Madden. And how could you not know? It's been all over the internet. Wait - you say you don't spend all day reading celebrity gossip on the internet? What, do you have a life or something? Bragger.

Well, to bring you up to speed, Nicole and Joel are getting ready to give daughter Harlow, 1, a sibling. Nicole is shown here at the opening of L.A. boutique What Comes Around Goes Around on Wednesday, and she's showing off her growing baby bump. It's good to see her looking healthy and with a little bit of a belly, since celebrities don't eat and usually weigh as much as a house cat. (You didn't know that either? You should should really spend more time on the internet.)

Kelly Clarkson is Not Pregnant, Nor Will She Ever Be

trix — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 18:32:00 GMT

Rumors are flying that Kelly Clarkson is pregnant, but she took the time to discredit those rumors.

She says that she's always been thicker in the middle and that she will stay childless. She may also adopt cats as the years go by.

She says, "I'm awesome at the aunt thing. I'll hang out with my oldest; out of all my nieces and nephews, the nephew is the oldest, he's seven. But I'm not really good with the whole baby thing. I don't do the diaper thing."

Oh, Kelly, it's happened to those more determined than you. You can try though and see how it works out.

Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer Split; Who Gets the Baby?

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 22:35:00 GMT

Off-and-on-and-off again couple Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer have broken up. Again. Reports are that Mayer broke up with Aniston after she returned from Europe where she was promoting canine flick Marley & Me. I guess John didn't like her spending time with another dog.

As usual the PR machine is in full gear, with a source giving the split a neutral spin. "They had some disagreements and decided to not continue to see each other," says one source. "Jen is moving on with her life like she always does. She seems happy."

And of course she's happy - she's pregnant with the child she's always wanted. (Work with me here, people. I'm trying to keep the hope alive.) What no one is talking about is - who gets to keep the baby? Chances are Jen will get full custody of the child, move in with BFFs Courtney Cox and David Arquette and they will raise the baby (named Marley Ickitt Aniston for sure) together.

You heard it here first.

Pregnant Paz Vega Pauses for the Camera

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 21:15:00 GMT

(Can you tell it took me all morning to come up with that clever title?) Actress Paz Vega attended the Cadena Dial Music Awards in Spain this week and showed off the slightest hint of a baby bump. She and husband Orson Salazar are expecting their second child in August - their son Orson is 22 months old.

I interviewed Paz last year and at that time she said "I definitely want more kids. I would love a soccer team!" Looks like she's on her way.

She also talked about how much she loves being a mom. "It has changed me in such a good way. I know exactly what’s important in life. When you have a baby you realize what is the essence of life." And she gushed about Orson, "He’s taken the place of everything. He’s fantastic. Of course, everyone thinks that their baby is the best in the world!"

Mandy Moore and Ryan Adams are Married...and Expecting a Baby?

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 12 Mar 2009 21:05:00 GMT

Mandy Moore and Ryan Adams up and got married in Savannah on Tuesday without telling anyone, and now of course people are talking. Saying things like, 'shotgun wedding' and 'Mandy must be knocked up' and 'Who's Ryan Adams?'

Well, this being FameCrawler, when someone says 'pregnant' we listen, and I'm starting to believe the rumors are true. Based on what? Something I like to call the Jennifer Aniston Pregnancy Indicator. Don't laugh - people thought peeing on a stick was a crazy idea at first, too.

You remember a few days back, and the internet was buzzing with rumors of Jennifer Aniston's pregnancy and they were based on the fact that she had been photographed recently wearing a couple of loose, baby-bump-hiding dresses and a pair of unflattering jeans? Here, let me refresh your memory:

Well, lo and behold, I give you Mandy Moore in a couple of loose, baby-bump-hiding dresses and a pair of unflattering jeans:

Coincidence? I think not. I'm going to go out on a limb here and congratulate Mr. and Mrs. Adams on their nuptials, and also on the upcoming birth!

(Of course, if the rumors about Aniston's pregnancy turn out to be false, maybe this theory doesn't hold water. If so, Mandy just has some explaining to do about that awful dress with the faux bowtie)

Well here it starts, it's the first of the spring babies and we at Famecrawler couldn't be happier.

Anne Heche gave birth to a baby boy over the weekend. Wow, I was so out of the loop or something, that I totally forgot she was pregnant.

Her healthy baby boy weighed in at 6 pounds 12 ounces and is named Atlas Heche Tupper.

Congratulations to the happy couple and to Homer, he's a big brother now.

Kelly Clarkson performed on last night's American Idol, and while she sounded great it wasn't her voice that's got everyone talking. The internet was buzzing with rumors that the singer is pregnant, pointing out her weight gain and what appeared to be a baby bump.

Clarkson performed, "My Life Would Suck Without You," and I'm sure tongues were wagging that she was singing the song to her unborn child.

Of course, Clarkson has been widely quoted lately as saying she has "no desire" to have children and that she "would not be a good mother." But haven't we heard that from celebrities before, and the next thing you know they're picking out cribs at Petit Trésor?

Check out this video of Clarkson's performance last night, and see if you think she's got a bun in the oven:

Goodbye Crazy? Anne Heche Officially Divorced From Coley Laffoon

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 16:05:00 GMT

Get out the good champagne - Anne Heche is officially divorced from Coley Laffoon. Let's hope this ends the crazy ordeal that at one time involved a stolen ottomon, various porny things and worst of all - inferior sandwich making. Personally I'm bummed the whole thing is settled - without their fights to entertain me I'll have to go back to watching the neighbor couple fight over the unbroken lawn chair.

Both parties agreed to spousal support based on a settlement and Heche - who announced she and actor James Tupper were expecting their first child together in December - will share custody with Laffoon of their 6-year-old son, Homer.

It's hard to say who Homer would be better off with. Maybe Octomom's got room for one more.

Heche must pay Laffoon $3,700 a month in child support, and also give her ex a lump sum of $515,000, more than enought to keep him in porn, ottomons and hoagies for the next few years.

Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller Contemplate Time, Space

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 22:35:00 GMT

Charlie Sheen and very pregnant wife Brooke Mueller were out celebrating his daughter Sam's 5th birthday in L.A. on Sunday. Sheen looks like he is standing about as close as he's going to get to Mueller for now. He's also got that faraway look on on his face, like he's calculating how long it will take him to run and get the car in case Mueller's water breaks.

I'm not sure what the due date is, but the couple is expecting twins and Brooke looks like she's about to pop. I'd say Charlie better have the car gassed up, and those keys in his hand.

Jennifer Aniston is Pregnant and Has a Baby Bump (PHOTOS)

sweatpantsmom — Sun, 08 Mar 2009 00:10:00 GMT

Life & Style is reporting that Jennifer Aniston is pregnant with John Mayer's baby. A source tells the mag that the actress has been frequently visiting Dr. Mary C. Kerr, the Beverly Hills-based ob-gyn to the stars. "She's been seeing Dr. Kerr," confirms the insider.

Fueling the rumors have been Aniston's recent fashion choices - sources point out that her "'frumpy' floral dress, baggy blue jeans and loose Burberry dress" are all to hide a burgeoning baby bump.

It's been no secret that Aniston has long desired to have a child, and with her recent reconciliation with Mayer the timing seems to be right. Of course, this is probably the fiftieth time in the past six months that Aniston has been rumored to be pregnant, but I hear fifty-one's the charm.
