Alec Baldwin Offends an Entire Country With His Plans to Have More Children

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 21 May 2009 20:35:00 GMT

Alec Baldwin, who joked that he might expand his family by “getting a Filipino mail-order bride ..." is apologizing to the people of the Philippines for the remark that was made during an appearance on The Late Show. So how do you apologize to an entire country? Why, by taking to your blog of course.

Baldwin, who apparently was threatened with physical violence after he made the quip that Philippine officials felt mocked their country's problems with sex trafficking, issued this apology on his blog on The Huffington Post:

“I’d like to offer an apology and a clarification to remarks I made recently. While on the David Letterman program, I joked that I might need a ‘mail-order bride’ to achieve the goal of having more children in my life. I believe that most people understood that this was a joke and took it as such. (A dated reference, no doubt, and another sign of my advancing age.) However, I do apologize to anyone who took offense.”

The 30 Rock actor famously apologized in 2007 for a profanity-laced tirade that he unleashed on his then-11-year-old daughter Ireland. I'm a big fan of Baldwin's, but it looks like if he wants to avoid any future bad publicity he should probably steer clear of making any comments that have anything whatsoever to do with his kids or his family.

Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa Welcome Son with a Doozy of a Name

Karl Erikson — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 23:03:00 GMT

It's a son for Lisa Bonet and boyfriend Jason Momoa! Lisa gave birth in December, actually, to new son - get this freaking name - Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa. Geez, I guess Consonant Warehouse was fresh out of most of the letters.

Nakoa-Wolf has an older sister, 17-month-old Lola Iolani, along with Zoe Isabella, 20, Lisa's daughter with Lenny Kravitz.

Jason's mom explained the new boy's name on Jason's official forum. Nakoa means "warrior," Mana refers to "strength/spirit," and Kaua means "rain." Po means "dark," which calls to mind the conditions during his birth. And Namakaeha is also Jason's middle name. So put all that together and you get "Strong Rainy Dark Warrior." Huh.

Lisa, who has a small part on ABC's "Life on Mars" is 40 and Jason is 29.

Congrats, Lisa and Jason!

Barry Watson Prays For a Full Night's Sleep!

Karl Erikson — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 18:35:00 GMT

Samantha Who? star Barry Watson is hoping that the new year brings him a full night of sleep. Sons Oliver, 3-1/2, and Felix, 13 months, "are the best," says Barry. "They definitely keep you going." But like most kids, they're chock full of energy and parents just don't have an unending supply of that.

Barry is married to "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" star/designer Tracy Hutson - and she needs the sleep "as much as I do," says Barry. The couple have been married for 2 years.

No worries, Barry. You'll get a full night's sleep in about 18 years.

Molly Shannon and Mini Chestnut

Karl Erikson — Mon, 29 Dec 2008 13:37:00 GMT

Here's "Kath & Kim" star Molly Shannon smiling brightly with her 3-1/2-year-old son Nolan a few days before Christmas. They were doing some last-minute shopping at The Grove. Molly carried a bag from the "American Girl" store, probably a gift for daughter Stella, 5.

Molly has been married to the amazingly-named Fritz Chestnut, an artist, for 4 years. And you can catch "Kath & Kim" Thursday nights. I think it started off weak, but it's quickly become one of my favorite sitcoms. Think of it as "My Name is Earl" in suburbia.

Anne Heche: There's No Place Like Homer

Karl Erikson — Sun, 26 Oct 2008 12:33:00 GMT

Here are former "Men in Trees" alums Anne Heche and boyfriend James Tupper, shopping at Bristol Farms with Anne's 6-1/2-year-old son, Homer. Homer's dad is Anne's ex, Coleman Laffoon. I still can't believe they canceled "Men in Trees." That was a great show. Stupid ABC.

Anne has a movie coming out next year called "Spread." And James has been signed to at least one episode of the sitcom "Samantha Who?" I've never seen that show. Is it any good?

Lisa Bonet Confirms She's Pregnant

Karl Erikson — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 12:01:00 GMT

Surprise, surprise. Lisa Bonet is pregnant. This is about as shocking as when we heard the bombshell that Ellen Degeneres is a lesbian. Lisa has been wearing baggy clothes for a while now. 40-year-old Lisa says, "I'm seven months and I feel great. I've had a tremendous amount of energy, which is lucky, because I have a 14-month-old."

Geez, she got pregnant 7 months after giving birth? What, is she taking lessons from Jamie Lynn? Oh, I forgot. Jamie Lynn isn't pregnant. Right.

This will be Lisa's and Jason Momoa's second child together. She's also a mom to Zoe Isabella, 19, fathered by Lenny Kravitz.

Life On Mars' Jason O'Mara Says Family is Priority

Lisa Bonet & Jason Momoa Jet Off: Photos

Karl Erikson — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 16:01:00 GMT

Lisa Bonet, 40-year-old star of "The Cosby Show" and the upcoming "Life on Mars," was jetting off at LAX with boyfriend Jason Momoa the other day. Geez, Denise Huxtable plays with her hair a lot, doesn't she? And why is it that her 29-year-old boyfriend has better hair than she does?

Momoa is probably best known for his role on "Stargate: Atlantis" (which I love). He and Lisa are the parents of daughter Lola Iolani Momoa, 14 months. Wow, that's a mouthful, eh? Lola Iolani Momoa? No future name change there, I'm sure.

Lisa also has a 19-year-old daughter (Zoe) with singer Lenny Kravitz. Now, excuse me while I finish watching the BRITISH version of "Life on Mars." I sincerely hope they don't screw up the American version. First episode comes on Thursday night.
