Celebrity Updates: Halle Opens Up To Oprah About Becoming A Mom

When Halle Berry called to tell gal pal Oprah Winfrey she was finally pregnant I would suspect there were screams of delight and a fair share of air kissing going on. When that was over I wouldn’t doubt that the legendary Miss O told the gorgeous ingénue to pack her bags and get to Chicago ASAP. I can hear it now: Oprah: “You better get on my plane and get on my show girl.” Halle: “Don’t forget to stock it with deep-dish pizza. The baby loves pizza…” Okay, maybe that’s not exactly how the conversation went… Regardless, the rumors are … Continue reading

Celebrity “Real” or “Rumor”— Who’s Really Pregnant In Hollywood?

RUMOR It may have appeared to be a shotgun wedding, but “Private Practice” star Kate Walsh says her quickie nuptials weren’t due to her being due… with a baby. Rumors of the actress’ pregnancy surfaced last week when paparazzi shot photos of Walsh’s new husband (movie exec Alex Young) kissing her stomach. You’ll recall the newlyweds tied the knot on two weeks ago after a six-month courtship. It wasn’t exactly a lengthy romance, but rest assured the 39-year-old former “Grey’s Anatomy” star says she is not with child. “I wouldn’t be surprised if we had a family, but we’re not … Continue reading

Trouble for Sandra Bullock and Jesse James

They seemed like the perfect couple less than a week ago. Sandra Bullock won the Best Actress Oscar for her performance in The Blind Side. Her husband, Jesse James, who looks more at home in a garage than on a red carpet, happily joined her and beamed with pride when she won. He told PEOPLE, “She’s beautiful. She’s amazing. She takes my breath away. Sometimes I look at her and I do, I just lose my breath.” Now cut from the happy couple at the Academy Awards to the news today of rumors of a split due to infidelity. PEOPLE … Continue reading

Not the Marrying Type

If I have to hear Anna Kournikova whine about how she never wants to get married I might scream. The tennis star made headlines earlier this week when she told reporters that while she has been dating her sexy boyfriend Enrique Iglesias for three years she has no plans to marry him… despite the fact that he has been proposing to her for the last year. What gives? Maybe it’s age. The ravishing blonde former tennis star is almost 27 while her hunky Latin lover is days away from turning 33. (Still young in my book.) Or perhaps Kournikova is … Continue reading

You waited, you wondered, you might have even ventured a guess or two. Well, now the wait is finally over. Oscar-winner Halle Berry just revealed the name of her newborn daughter… Nahla Ariela Aubry. Nahla… say it with me… GNAW-lah. Yes, it’s pronounced very similar to the name of Simba’s gal pal, Nala, in Disney’s popular 1994 animated feature film The Lion King. Nala means, “gift” in Swahili. But Nahla means honeybee in Arabic. The infant was born Sunday morning and is the first child for the actress and her model boyfriend, Gabriel Aubry. The Academy Award-winner told TV’s “Access … Continue reading

Let’s hear it for the boy… Three days after giving birth to her first son, Elisabeth Hasselbeck announced his name on “The View” this morning. Taylor Thomas Hasselbeck is healthy and nursing like a champ, according to his mom. Elisabeth called into today’s show and revealed little else than her son’s name (more on that later) and the fact that she was in labor “forever…four or five thousand hours,” but only pushed for 35 minutes before Taylor made his debut.
