Weeks After Giving Birth, ‘Veep’s Anna Chlumsky hit Emmy Red Carpet

anna chumlksy

Veep star and Bellyitch Bumpwatch alum Anna Chlumsky gave birth to her daughter just weeks before she hit Sunday’s Emmy Awards red carpet.

The My Girl  alum was nominated for the 4th time for a Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Emmy for her role as Amy Bookheimer and instilled the help of designer Chrisitan Sirano to create a bold look for the award show which took place at the Microsoft Theater on Sunday, September 18.

Her second daughter Clara Elizabeth So was born on Thursday, July 28.

Though she lost the award to SNL‘s Kate McKinnon, she stood out in a crinkly metallic off-the-shoulder gold asymmetric gown with an extended train that she helped design.

“This was a collaboration,” Siriano told PeopleStyle of the gown, one of nine looks he designed for the Emmys. “She really wanted something very vintage. She has a lot of vintage references, like old-school ’40s, ’50s dresses. And she wanted this very weird shape because she just had a baby. So she really, I think, didn’t want to show too much of her body, but still wanted to look cool.”

He told the site that he and Chlumsky expected the dress to generate some criticism.

“I think definitely it was a risk,” he says. “The fabric was a risk. The shape was a risk. But it was cool. People get very scared of what they haven’t seen before. Like, ‘Oh, I hate it,’ or ‘Oh, it’s not working,’ because it’s just new to them. But I think that’s okay. We all knew it was going to be something fun and different and not everybody would get it and that’s okay.”

Chlumsky and husband Shaun So also have a 3-year-old daughter, Penelope Joan.

Lauren London Had a Baby And NoOne Even Knew She was Pregnant

lauren london

Lauren London managed to keep an entire 9 months of pregnancy under wraps until announcing this Friday, September 16, 2016 that she and longtime beau, rapper,  Nipsey Hussle, welcomed a baby boy.

In the caption to a photo of her newborn son’s hand wrapped around her perfectly manicured hand, the ATL star dubbed herself the queen of the low key.

“And then came You,” she captioned the IG photo shared with her 2.7 Million followers. “Last week I gave birth to a beautiful healthy happy baby boy . Blessed.

#motheroftwo #GodisGood#QueenLowkey ??”

And the title is fitting given how The Perfect Match star has managed to keep her 7-year old son Kameron with rapper Lil Wayne out of the public eye for her son’s entire life.

Well, the pregnancy wasn’t’ an entire secret. Back in May, during a radio show, her ATL co-star accidentally released the news when answering a question about whether there was an ATL2 in the making.

“Aye man, we working on it presently,” T.I replied to the interviewer . “We got a couple obstacles in our way man. Like, uhhh, my lil sis man. She about to have a baby. So we gone have to let her get that time out of her system and you know when she back in ‘New New’ shape we’ll be ready to roll.”

Congrats!

A week before baby is due, Victoria Secret model Behati  Prinsloo shared a  silhouette baby bump pic via Instagram.

Prinsloo and her husband, Maroon 5 frontman and The Voice coach Adam Levine are expecting their first child  together, a baby girl.

Their daughter is due to arrive on Sept. 20.



In the black-and-white pic, Prinsloo can be seen posing to the side revealing her silhouette. She captioned the image with an emoji of a bomb about to go off, probably signaling the “about to explode”.

In the background is a jacuzzi, swimming pool, and a canyon view of her and her husband’s massive 3.66 acre Beverly Hills estate.

This is not her first foray into this imagery gentre.

At 36 weeks preggers, she posted another silhouetted bikini shot but without the sheer sheet. It did reveal a stretched out tattoo and on her stretch mark -less tummy. ?

BumpWatch: Vanessa Lachey just Got Gifted the Cutest Onesie

Vanessa Lachey is expecting her third child with husband Nick Lachey and shared the most adorable and creative onesie on Instagram. It was a shortsleeve Tee with the words, “Aint No Mama Like the One I Got.”

Clearly, it is is a twist off of the popular 1972 song by the group Four Tops, “Aint no woman like the one I got.”

“Littlest Lachey is already getting some fun swag!” the former MTV host and actress captioned the photo”Laundry time just got even MORE fun!!! I can’t take the cuteness of baby clothes!”

The former beauty pageant winner also shouted out Steller-Seven, the cute boutique that sells various baby and children’s clothes with that slogan on them.

The Lacheys are parents to 20-month old daughter Brooklyn Elisabeth and 4-year old son Camden John.

Study Credits Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt with Destigmatizing Unwed Parenthood

brad pitts

A new study says that Angelina Jolie and Bradd Pitt‘s unwed parenting changed the way the gossip press covered pregnant celebrity couples, and credits them for destigmatizing out-of-wedlock pregnancies altogether.

Researcher  Hanna Grol-Prokopczyk, an assistant professor of sociology at theUniversity at Buffalo, State University of New York, told  LiveScience.com that PEOPLE magazine, in particular, helped to de-stigmatize non-marital fertility.

The researcher noted that in the 1970s and 1980s, celebrities who got pregnant out of wedlock were often married before the child’s birth, and when People announced pregnancy news, it would also include an approximate wedding date on its front cover.

But when Jolie and Pitt revealed their pregnancy in 2006, but made no public announcement of either engagement or marriage, the magazine started shifting its policy of putting wedding dates of pregnant celeb couples on its cover.

That change, Grol-Prokopczyk says, “calatlyzed a larger movement — mainly, making it more OK for a couple to be pregnant without news of wedding bells in their future, the new study suggests.”

It gets deeper and had wide-reaching implication on society as a whole, the research suggests.

“Overall, People’s coverage appears likely to have contributed to destigmatization of nonmarital fertility ” Grol-Prokopczyk said.

And it is very interesting to read how she came up with the idea for the study in the first place as it mirrors our exact experience with Google alerts for  the term “pregnancy.” A lot of the news out on that topic is about celebrities, and so much so that even mainstream news sites that focus on strict news are doing more celebrity pregnancy coverage.

Grol-Prokopczyk too had such alerts when she was expecting a child.

“I was expecting to get stories about nutrition during pregnancy, or how to avoid complications during birth,” she said. “Instead, over 90 percent of those stories emailed to me were about celebrity pregnancies.”

She said the headlines made her realized that many celebrities were having out of wedlock babies, counter to popular culture’s habit of stigmatizing unwed marriage. (Though arguably, I can attest to regularly seeing people who are traditionalist make negative comments in all unwed celebrity pregnancy stories in PEOPLE and US Weekly)

To conduct her research, Grol-Prokopczyk’s assistants found 384 stories on celebrity pregnancies between PEOPLE magazine’s inaugural year in 1974 to 2014. They coded each one, noting whether the parents were dating, engaged, married or not in a relationship at the time the mag announced the pregnancy on its cover.

Why PEOPLE?

According to the Alliance for Audited Media, PEOPLE magazine had the ninth highest magazine circulation in the United States in 2013,  which made it an ideal proxy for popular culture at large, Grol-Prokopczyk said.

She said that the magazine always celebrated pregnancies, even unwed ones, but before the early 2000s, it made sure to mention that marriage was  imminent.

And as to gay marriage, the researchers pointed out that they were referred to as single even if they had a partner. Jodi Foster, for example, famously had a partner but was featured in a cover with the title “And Baby Makes Two,” describing her as a single parent even though she had a partner.

It looks like they’ve evolved on that front too.

PEOPLE did not respond to Live Science’s request for comment and the study is yet to be published in a peer-review journal. It will be presented to the American Sociological Association’s annual meeting in Seattle in August.

Interesting sociology research!

Congratulations to Hilaria and Alec Baldwin on the birth of their third child, a son, the couple named Leonardo.

As the professional yoga instructor did after giving birth to her other children, she shared a mirror selfie of her post-delivery bump, after just 24 house after welcoming her newborn.

“I took this yesterday when Leonardo was about 24 hours old,” Hilaria, who is married to Alec Baldwin, wrote alongside the snap. “I did the same thing right after Rafael was born. It always makes me a bit nervous to do something like this, but I feel that in the age of such strong body shaming, I want to do all that I can to normalize a real body and promote healthy self esteem.”

I took this yesterday when Leonardo was about 24 hours old. I did the same thing right after Rafael was born. It always makes me a bit nervous to do something like this, but I feel that in the age of such strong body shaming, I want to do all that I can to normalize a real body and promote healthy self esteem. Many of you know that I love to show the process of life’s experiences on the body and I am a firm believer in how a good diet and the right balance of exercise make us happy, healthy, and strong. So from here on, I want to dedicate the majority of my #366daysoflivingclearly #hilarialcm daily posts to getting back in shape and I invite you to do it with me ❤️??. Common questions last time were: Did I have a c section?: No, I pushed him out Where are all the pads for bleeding?: I took them out briefly to snap this pic as there is a limit to how much you need to see ?. Where am I?: in the hospital room bathroom #glamour Oh, and no filter. Just brightened it up a bit.

She continued:

“Many of you know that I love to show the process of life’s experiences on the body and I am a firm believer in how a good diet and the right balance of exercise make us happy, healthy and strong,” Baldwin added. “So from here on, I want to dedicate the majority of my #366daysoflivingclearly #hilarialcm daily posts to getting back in shape and I invite you to do it with me.”

It’s all in the vein of keeping it real and being authentic and showing the other side of the glossy post-baby magazines! Bravo!

Why Lady Gaga Fans Trolled Radio Stations as ‘Soccer Moms’

PicMonkey Collage

Why did Lady Gaga‘s fanatical followers pose as soccer moms to get radio stations to play the long-awaited single from the mega star? Because they can.

The fan site GagaDaily started a campaign to support her by telling Gaga’s stans called monsters that “radio hosts hate homosexuals and stan twitters, it’s a fact”. Therefore, they aimed to create buzz for her new song, “Perfect Illusion“, before it was released. The “Bad Romance” singer’s stans encouraged all the fan site members to create fake accounts to appear like soccer moms.

sub-buzz-13826-1473122237-1

One post on a private bulletin board suggested to fans: “Make an account with a soccer mom selfie avatar, make your username something like ‘ilovemykids123’ and write a bio about how you have three kids and a husband.”

And so they did!



One member of a private board wrote, like “you will be helping radio DJ’s all over the world think that the GP [general population]is actually living for the song, therefore playing it more often,” the Guardian reported.

sub-buzz-21726-1473122913-1

Eventually, the radio stations started to pick up on it.

“You don’t need to send the fake soccer mom tweets, @ladygaga fans, you already KNOW we got you! #PerfectIllusion,” Pittsburgh station 96.1 KISS wrote. After all, most of the accounts were created this month. doh!

And for those stations who didn’t know, they could have learned about the contrived excitement when the story got picked up by sites like BuzzFeed and Paper Magazine.

“Numerous ‘soccer mom’ accounts have been set up, all barely a few hours old, with different stories about their daughters/sons/husbands and how much they absolutely MUST hear the new Gaga, or really any Gaga at all,” Buzzfeed reporter Brad Esposito wrote.

It’s been a busy summer for Gaga who recently released a cookbook with her father; confirmed a role in A Star is Born and she also just started filming the latest season of American Horror Story.
