It’s time once again to congratulate those celebrities entering into parenthood:
Josh Holloway: Looks like Sawyer may now have a new reason to get off that island. Holloway and his wife, Yessica Kumala, have just announced that they are expecting their first child. The two were married back in 2004.
Kerri Walsh: If there ever was a good time for Misty May-Treanor to rupture her Achilles tendon, it would be now. Turns out her volleyball partner will also be sidelined thanks to a pregnancy! Walsh and her beach volleyball player hubby, Casey Jennings, are currently expecting their first child. Kerri believes they conceived only days after her recent gold medal win.

Obsessed with American Idol? In love with Paula Abdul designs? Or do you just want another reason to watch the Home Shopping Network? Now you can combine all these passions - and get some new jewelry, to boot.
According to Paula Abdul, she personally designs jewelry for each contestant on Idol. But the judge doesn’t stop there - anyone can see her designs if they just look hard enough. “I pretty much wear my jewelry all the time now, but I end up giving it away,” Abdul recently explained. She started making the jewelry back in 2002, when Idol first hit (and took over) the TV scene.
“I wanted something the kids could touch and feel to remind themselves that their talent got them here,” Abdul explained. The judge is no stranger to home shopping. Paula previously made a foray into QVC, selling some of her jewelry collection to home-buying fans.
Her new line, Forever Your Girl, will first appear on Saturday and feature products ranging from $29 to $200 (USD) in price.

Britney Spears is finally getting good headlines and positive gossip. She’s got an album that’s sure to be hit, a tour that’s going to be a success and a documentary that’s going to be re-ran about seven hundred times. But she’s also got an ex-husband who’s got a voice of his own - one that’s sure to be heard.
Kevin Federline has recently opened up about Brit and the past in an interview with People magazine. The father of four (Shar Jackson is the mother of Kori, 6, and Kaleb, 4, Britney the mother of Sean Preston, 3, and Jayden James, 2) has been brought up in conversation by Spears several times recently. Now, he’s going to go on the record when it comes to her.

“I think she was in awe of me,” Simon Cowell told the British press recently. Currently in country to work on the X-Factor, Cowell will soon be Stateside for the eighth season of American Idol. And, according to him, the reality TV contestants aren’t the only ones who seem to be overwhelmed in his very big presence.
When Britney Spears visited the show, Cowell said she was awed by him, though he admitted the statement “may be a bit egotistical.” Ego from you, Simon? Never! “She was just staring at me,” he admitted. “I said ‘touch me, I’m human,’ and I think that broke the ice.”
Cowell recently told the British media that he may not return for another season of X-Factor, though he’s been threatening the same of American Idol for years.

Embarrassing Outfit of the Day: Geri Halliwell
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Fashion Police, Red Carpet,
Geri Halliwell brought her own kind of spice to the 2008 BAFTA Children’s Awards in London last night.
Despite a seemingly flawless appearance from the front, Halliwell’s ensemble had one major issues in back. Her dress + wind = revealing red carpet number.
Granted - had she been wearing underwear, we wouldn’t be commenting on her exposed skin. But then we’d probably be criticizing her for pulling a Gwyneth Paltrow.
Argggh. Why don’t men ever have these wardrobe issues?

Britney Spears: Back on the Singles Market
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Photos, Editorials,
Britney Spears has a new MTV special, a new album and even a five-year plan for her future. Brit’s last plan (marry K-Fed, have a couple of kids, live happily ever after) didn’t quite work out. Maybe this one will.
“In five years, I would like to be married and have a father figure for my kids, someone who is a provider and can be really stable,” Spears offered up her opinions in the latest issue of Glamour magazine. Is this meant to be a direct dig at her kids’ actual father, K-Fed, or just a random future wish from Brit?
“It’s hard doing it on your own,” Spears added in her interview, in what would certainly seem to be a pointed remark in Kevin Federline’s direction.
But before you boys start lining up to become step daddy number one, you’d better learn about Britney’s new habits.

Quickie Divorce for Madonna and Guy Ritchie
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Divorce,
What took 7 1/2 years to build ended in less than a minute.
Earlier today in a London court, a judge granted Madonna and Guy Ritchie a preliminary divorce decree. Assuming no issues come up, their marriage will officially be over in six weeks and a day.
This morning’s proceeding - which was not attended by either by either party or their lawyers - lasted approximately 54 seconds. Their case was sixth on a list that included 16 other couples.
According to the petition filed by Madonna, “unreasonable behavior” was cited as the reason for divorce. According to the Daily Telegraph, that is an option often used for “quickie” resolutions. The alternatives for divorce are “adultery, a five-year separation or for one partner to have deserted the other for at least two years.”
Although Guy could have walked away with a substantial portion of his ex’s fortune, the director has reportedly decided to settle for their estate in Wiltshire and a pub they own in the Mayfair area.

Ashlee & Pete Wentz Give New Son Latest Hollywood Name
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Celebrity Babies,
With beach names like “Zuma” already taken, where can a celebrity turn to for inspired baby names? How about Disney?
On Thursday evening, newlyweds Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and Pete Wentz welcomed Bronx Mowgli Wentz, their new 7 pound, 11 ounce baby boy. Where have you heard the name “Mowgli” before? Well, that just happens to be the lead character in The Jungle Book.
While many will question the choice for middle name, those close to the pair might have seen it coming. Just weeks ago, the mother-to-be was given a Winnie the Pooh-themed baby shower. Prior to that, the couple were married in a Alice in Wonderland-themed ceremony.
Congratulations to the new parents!
