Gold-medalist winner, Olympian Kerri Walsh and Casey Jennings, her pro volleyball player husband, have welcomed their first child!

From PEOPLE:

Walsh, 30, and her husband, AVP pro-volley ball player Casey Jennings, 33, welcomed son Joseph Michael Jennings at 8:57 p.m. on May 22 in Los Angeles.

"We could not be more thrilled to welcome Joseph into the world," Walsh tells PEOPLE. "It’s the most incredible feeling. We are already so in love with him and it’s such an amazing, special moment for our family."

The baby weighed in at 8 lbs. 10 oz. Mom and baby are resting comfortably.

In May, Walsh shared her excitement about becoming a mom. "It's more beautiful and more special than I ever thought possible," she said.

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Olympian Kerri Walsh: It's A Boy!

Sassy Smith — Sat, 02 May 2009 16:03:00 GMT

Olympian Kerri Walsh and her pro volleyball player husband, Casey Jennings, are expecting their first child and they know what they are having - a boy! The soon-to-be parents have named their bundle of joy...any guesses?

Find out after the jump!

Joseph Michael Jennings is expected to make his entrance later this month, and the mom-to-be told PEOPLE, "I am beyond excited. It's more beautiful and more special than I ever thought possible."

Kerri, 33, announced her news in December and said this pregnancy is "extra special" to her.

"We had been wanting to have kids for a long time and tried to get pregnant before Beijing but had a miscarriage. It was sad, but the way it happened I had to wait at least a year before trying again. Then we got pregnant literally first try, day one in Beijing after we finished. Beijing baby. It was an inspired conception!"

The athletic couple wanted to be surprised and not find out the sex of their baby until birth day, but changed their minds.

Walsh explained, "I filled out this letter to Casey saying 'Merry Christmas. We have a beautiful baby ---- on the way' and I had the doctor fill it out. So neither of us knew at that time. My mom got the letter framed and we opened it on Christmas and found out together. It was the last present we opened and the best. I was so overwhelmed, everyone freaked out."

How sweet!

Have they decided if they'll one day give their son a sibling or two?

"Absolutely," said Kerri. "We want at least three kids. I want my boys and a girl, I want it all! But I want to keep working because I love my job so much. I just need to learn how to be a good juggler and we'll get it all done."

Kerri sounds very much like an excited mama! Congrats!

Skier Shane McConkey Dead in BASE Jumping Accident (PHOTOS)

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 01:05:00 GMT

Big mountain skier and BASE jumper Shane McConkey, 39, died earlier today in a ski-BASE accident in Italy. According to ESPN McConkey died while performing a maneuver he had done some 700-plus times before; launching off a cliff with the expectation of deploying his parachute canopy and then gliding down to the ground

ESPN has this account from filmmaker Scott Gaffney, a longtime close friend of McConkey's:

"He did a double backflip off the jump and he has these releasable bindings so they come off in the air and then he flies off in his wing suit.

"But one ski did not come off. And when that happens the drag on the skis causes you to flip over, so the skis go over your head. So he was struggling with the one ski. Then he also got into a bad spin. So he may have never even pulled his pilot chute. And that's coming from [fellow skier] JT Holmes, who Shane was with in Italy and who reviewed the footage of the accident. So the combination of the ski, the spin and the pilot chute, apparently. Because you can't throw the pilot chute like that; if you throw it while you're upside down and it wraps around the ski, you're done."

McConkey is survived by his wife, Sherry, and their 3-1/2-year-old daughter, Ayla. What a tragedy that Ayla is left without a father at such a young age. I'm sure she's old enough to grasp that her father is gone, but not old enough to understand why. But what a legacy he leaves behind for his daughter to take pride in.

Our thoughts go out to McConkey's family and friends.

Kerri Walsh and Husband Expecting First Child

Karl Erikson — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 23:05:00 GMT

Olympian and gold medalist Kerri Walsh is expecting her first child with husband Casey Jennings. "I'm chubby and I'm pregnant and it's awesome!" says Kerri, half of the winningest beach volleyball team on Earth. She and her volleyball partner Misty May-Treanor announced after the Olympic games in China that they'd be focusing on starting families.

Seems Kerri was already a mom-to-be during the summer games, because she's already 16-1/2 weeks pregnant. "Well, the way they date pregnancies is a little bit confusing," Kerri says. 'We believe we conceived during our last days in Beijing, or about a couple of days after we wont the gold medal." So much for the myth that Olympians don't have sex during the games.

"We don't know if it's a boy or a girl, and we aren't trying to find out. We have a feeling it's a boy, but we’re going to find out the traditional way." Kerri is loving her new curves. "I think the chubbiness is all relative, but it's for the very best cause in the whole world, and I'm proud of it."

And what about Misty May's babymaking? "I know she's trying," Kerri says. "And that's all I'll say."

Ah yes, how I love making babies. Well, the part that leads up to the babies, anyway. I'm too old for a baby nowadays. I'd have to buy stock in Red Bull.

Hot Off The Press: Britney Spears' OK! Magazine Cover Story

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 11:35:00 GMT

Britney Spears is on the cover of the new OK! Magazine, and I have to admit she looks totally normal. There's not an ambulance or cocktail or paparazzi fistfight in sight. She even looks like she's probably wearing panties underneath that dress.

This is apparently the first interview that Britney's done in two years and she candidly talks about her father, her career and sons Jayden and Sean. Asked if she would want her children to pursue a career in entertainment as she did at a very young age, Spears answered, “I’d rather not,. But but I’d love them unconditionally if they wanted to. I’d just as soon they have a more normal childhood.”

Of seeing her younger sister Jamie Lynn give birth earlier this year at the young age of sixteen Spears says, "I was shocked a little bit,. She’s always been the baby, and now the baby was having a baby. It was mind-boggling."

Spears father was also present at the interview, and he shed some light on how Britney's recent tumultuous life has strengthened their father-daughter bond. "God has a way of taking something bad and turning it into something good. If this hadn’t happened, I would never have been able to get back with my daughter and have this relationship I have with these two little boys."

And proving that Sam Lutfi and Adnan Ghalib can make even Kevin Federline seem like a stellar individual, the elder Spears had some good things to say about his former son-in-law. “Kevin is all for everything. He wants her to have 50/50 custody. He wants them to raise these kids together. Kevin’s heart is right.”

And in case you've forgotten - Britney used to be an international pop superstar and has an album that will be released in six to nine months. "I’m writing every day, right here at the piano in this living room... This is my best work ever."

If you can read everything you read in OK! magazine, it sounds like a new and improved Britney. Let's hope it's true - although I do miss those crazy pictures of her buying cases of Red Bull at 7-Eleven.

Mylene Klass Gets Around

trix — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 20:36:00 GMT

Mylene Klass and her adorable munchkin Ava visited BBC Radio 1 in London the other day.

Aren't they cute? Both Mom and baby were smiling through all the pictures. Gotta loves those Chuck T's on Ava.

What she was doing at the Radio station? Well, she has been a guest reporter for many BBC TV shows and is a very talented musician as well as a presenter for different TV shows as well so anything is possible, but she was probably there to promote her new show on prime time Saturday night "Last Choir Standing". I loved the US version of that show, the Flight of the Bumblebee was awesome.

Travis Barker Settles Lawsuit With Rockstar Beverage Company

Karen — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 00:22:00 GMT

Travis Barker settled the lawsuit he brought against a beverage company that stole his photo. Terms of the settlement were not released.

Yahoo News reported: A call to Rockstar Beverage Corp.'s attorney was not immediately returned Monday. Barker's lawyer, Gregory Weisman, said both parties were still working out terms. He declined to elaborate until the deal is completed.

The Rockstar energy drink company published a photo on their website of the Travis Barker "holding a can of one of Rockstar's beverages, and identifying him and his endorsement by name" without his consent.

Gee if they could get away with that, Britney Spears ought to shoot a music video about Starbucks, Red Bull and First Response Pregnancy Tests.

Britney Spears Picks Up Some Mixers

Whit Honea — Thu, 31 Jan 2008 00:59:00 GMT

Britney went incognito and bought herself a nightly dose of Red Bull. Man, that much of the stuff and she'll have wings like a 747. I assume she has a gallon of vodka at home.

Jordan To Reduce Breast Size, Career Ends: An Open Letter to Katie Price

Whit Honea — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 23:14:00 GMT

Katie, or Jordan, or whatever the hell you want to be called, this letter is an intervention.

There is talk that you are thinking of reducing your breast size. Frankly, I am against this.

The Sun is reporting:

The former glamour girl, who was also showing off her new brown rinse, is going under the knife before Christmas to have a breast reduction for hubby Peter Andre.
She says the surgery will make them more "perky".

Here's the thing, if people wanted "perky" they'd add some Red Bull to their cappuccino. You aren't famous because of your husband, he's famous because of you. You're famous because you have paid good money to have ridiculously huge boobs and once, about 12 tans ago, you were kind of hot. Sure, you're something of a parody now, but still, it's better than being flat. Isn't it?

Imagine if Ron Jeremy were to cut valuable inches off of his mustache. Where's the fun in that? Jeremy knows, you dance with who brought you, and in your case possibly on a pole.

I'm saying this as your friend, Katie, or Jordan, or whatever. I'm saying this because I don't want you to jeopardize your career. Lastly, I'm saying this because I really like big boobs. We all have our lot in life and that one is mine.

Don't do it for the Gipper.

Yours,

Whit, or the Gipper, or whatever

Breaking News: Angelina Jolie is a Hottie

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 06 Nov 2007 22:20:00 GMT

Seeing as we barely mention her here on FameCrawler, I don't know if you've noticed that Angelina Jolie is kind of good looking. At least according to participants of an Entertainment Weekly online poll, who voted Jolie the Ultimate Female Hottie. Mrs. Brad Pitt beat out other homely wallflowers such as Jessica Alba and Eva Mendes in this highly scientific poll, meaning that hormonal teenage boys everywhere cast their anonymous votes by clicking the screen between sips of Red Bull and PSP marathons.

EW's readers also chose their winner in the men's category - and that honor goes to...Wentworth Miller. Who? Apparently the Prison Break star is quite the sexy beast, although his charms seem to escape me in this picture. Maybe he'll perk up when he gets his Ultimate Male Hottie t-shirt, trophy and refrigerator magnet prize package!

Britney Continues "Country" Lessons for Sons, Bo and Luke

BadKitty — Wed, 11 Jul 2007 14:15:00 GMT

Here's Britney on her way to audition for a remake of One Million Years BC (although clearly that cheap wig is not from Raquel's eponymous line.) She still takes the time to practice being "country" with her Irish twins, all bare feet and no sunscreen. Don't know where the tan starts and the dirt ends! Yeehaw!

And who says she kept little Jayden James hidden for so long because something ain't right with him? His motor skills are plenty good enough to pluck a cigarette right out of that pack. That's hard, y'all! They pack those suckers in tight! It takes practice!

I can hear her now, the dulcet tones of the south wafting from her mouth with every, "Hold mama's cigarettes while she cracks this cold one." And by cold one, of course I mean Red Bull.
