After several sites posted a photo of the Almost Famous actress in a yellow bikini while vacationing with her half Japanese musician boyfriend Danny Fujikawa in Europe last week and soon after, the trolls came out with hateful things to say about the size of her b

It’s like being a person in the public eye while pregnant invites all sorts of unsolicited criticism. Hudson didn’t reply to the nasty comments and left it to her fans and followers to do the clapping back.

The Fabletics founder just came back from the vacation where she posted lots of photos on her Instagram account.

July 24, 2018 by JJ

Real Housewives of Atlanta Friend of the Wives Shamea Morton and her husband Gerald Mwangi hosted an over-the-top Gender Reveal party over the weekend. In attendance were RHOA stars Kandi Burruss and her husband Todd, Cynthia Bailey and Porsha Williams.

“We’re waiting to find out what my boo @shameamorton is having! I’m #TeamBoy.” Burruss captioned a photo of her and hubby cradling Morton’s bump on her Instagram. “What do y’all think? Update: It’s a girl! 💕 #ShameaAndGeraldGenderReveal📸: @hauseofglam

Turns out Burruss was wrong. The couple are actually expecting a girl which made Morton happy.

“I hope she’s a mini-me,” Shamea told US Weekly. “I do girls really well,” she added. “I was more terrified of a boy. I’m all for the tutus and bows.”

Gerald was equally excited to learn that he would welcome a girl later this year. “He already calls her his princess,” Shamea revealed. “He’s overjoyed.”

And boy was it quite the reveal! In a video produced by Freddy O, Morton shares that she had no clue what the baby’s sex was but was excited to learn.

The guests gathered outdoors to watch fireworks launch and eventually, the last set of explosions revealed pink works! It’s a girl!

“We showed our 45–minute wedding video and the entire house was quiet,” the former Atlanta Falcons cheerleader told Us. “There were even a few tears shed when we played our vows.”

Along with the fireworks display, revelers enjoyed a feast that included cupcakes, pulled pork, corn on the cob and rotisserie chicken.

Morton called the entire night was “a dream.”

Torrei Hart is Ready to Co-Parent with Eniko and Kevin Hart

November 16, 2017 by JJ

Kevin Hart‘s ex wife Torrei Hart is an ambassador in blended familyhood. The actress and film producer told US Weekly recently that she is prepped and ready to embrace Kevin and his new wife Eniko’s baby as one of her own.

“I have baby fever, but I don’t want any more kids,” said Hart, who also is a screenwriter. “I wanna be able to love on this baby just like they’re loving on the baby. With coparenting, you have to get it right so it’s not a weird thing. I just want peace.”

She and Kevin divorced in 2011 after being married for 8 years and during that time, they welcomed two kids: now 12-year old daughter Heaven and 10-year old son Hendrix.

Kevin and Eniko are expecting a new baby boy, who they’ve decided to name Kenzo.

Torrei is among the many women in America, around the world, celebrity and not who are mature enough to make things work in a blended family! Cheers to her for taking the high road despite all the negativity that swrils around this famous family.

Was Mel B’s ‘You Will Never Own Me’ VMA Dress Addressing Ex or Simon Cowell?

August 29, 2017 by JJ

Mel B wore a personally designed dress with a bold message on it to the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday: a sequinned dress with the words “You Will Never Own Me” hand-stitched along the front, according to US Weekly magazine.

“The former Spice Girl arrived at the award show in a sparkly gold body con dress from Discount Universe with spaghetti straps, a V-neckline, and the words “You Will Never Own Me” written in rainbow hues down the front,” Emily Patrick, writing for the site wrote. “She ditched all accessories, letting her statement shift shine, pairing it with bright red pumps, minimal makeup, and her asymmetrical haircut swept over to one side.”

There is speculation as to who that message is addressing.

She is embroiled in a contentious divorce and custody battle with her ex-husband Stephen Belafonte.

A court ordered the America’s Got Talent judge to pay her estranged husband Stephen Belafonte $40,000 per month in temporary spousal support as well as $140,000 in attorney fees and forensic fees on Belafonte’s behalf. The two share a 5-year old daughter Madison.

But others have speculated that the message was addressed to co-judge on AGT, Simon Cowell, who took a jab at her failed marriage during a broadcast last week.

After an embarrassing technical malfunction on a magician contestant’s performance, Cowell quipped: “I kind of imagine this would be like Mel B’s wedding night. A lot of anticipation, not much promise or delivery.”

Afterwards, Brown jumped out of her seat, poured her glass of water onto Cowell’s lap and stormed off stage during the live taping. throwing a glass of water at him, Brown stormed out of the studio despite it being a live taping.

At a red carpet event after that taping, Mel B said of the incident, “He should know that if he says something inappropriate,he is going to get stuff thrown at him.”

She was also already emotional from watching another contestant’s touching performance and hearing a personal backstory.

“[Evie Clair] really made me cry because it made me think about my dad, and my dad recently passed away from cancer also, with an almost eight to nine years struggle. So a story like that from such a young girl really touches my heart,” Mel B told E! News “She just sounded so beautiful and I couldn’t stop crying, so I go from that to Simon saying something so rude and inappropriate.”

How Much Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Are Paying Their Pregnant Surrogate

July 27, 2017 by JJ

And baby makes 5 (or more) for Kim Kardashian and Kanye West who are expecting again via a surrogate, US Weekly reports.

According to the magazine, a San Diego mom in her late 20s is three months pregnant with the couple’s baby. She is being paid $45,000 for her services at a rate of $4,500 per month (because pregnamcy is 40 weeks and NOT 9 months as is falsely portrayed in the media).

The surrogar was referred to the Wests by an agency that they paid a deposit of $68, 850 to, TMZ reports.

The baby is due in January 2018 and in the event it turns out to be twins, they’ll pay an additional $5,000 each month for the extra baby.

I am a Beyonce fan but even I am turned off by members of the Bey Hive alleging that Kim is trying to be like Beyonce who recently welcomed twins or keep up with her.

Actuall, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star expressed interest in having another baby before Beyonce even announced her second pregnancy, but was told by her doctors to avoid carrying the baby herself given all her medical proble.

They need to give it a rest with the silly comparisons. Yeah, I said it! LOL!

Other stipulations in the contract focus on the surrogate’s wellness habits, US Weekly adds. Among the fairly standard expectant-mom guidelines are no drinking, smoking or drug use; no hot tubs or saunas; no raw fish; and no handling cat litter.

January 23, 2017 by JJ

Former Spice Girl Geri Horner (nee Haliwell) welcomed her first son this past Saturday, January 21, US Weekly reports, and the baby is named after the singer’s close friend the Late George Michael, who passed away on Christmas 2016.

This is her first child with her husband, Formula 1 race driver Christian Horner.

A source told the Daily Mirror: “Geri wanted George to be a part of Monty’s life, so she felt it only fitting that her newborn have a middle name after the star.”

The 44-year-old singer shared a tender black-and-white photo of her son’s tiny feet on Instagram with the caption, “Montague George Hector Horner arrived this morning, a beautiful little brother for Bluebell and Olivia #amazing-day #grateful #monty ??.”

‘Atlanta’ Actor/Producer Donald Glover Had his First Child in Spring; Didn’t Tell A Soul

October 13, 2016 by JJ

As actor Donald Glover rose in fame and popularity, he became even more and more private. So private that he deleted all of his social media posts except the trailer for his new FX channel TV show, Atlanta.

So, it comes as no surprise that he and his girlfriend had a baby in May and no-one knew…until now that the media randomly caught wind.

US Weekly reports that people spotted him and his mystery woman at a grocery store in Hawaii in January this year with her looking about 7 to 8 months pregnant.

In May, she was seen pushing a baby stroller. Doh!

Glover grew up as a Jehovah’s Witness in Stone Mountain, Georgia and is best known for his role at Troy on the hit NBC TV show Community, and as a comedian. He also wrote for the hit NBC TV show 30Rock for several years and has a successful rap career as his alter ego Childish Gambino.

I love his FX show which is about a Princeton University student who drops out, who life as an unemployed drifter with his ex-girlfriend and their baby and tries to become rich by managing his up and coming rapper cousin, Paper Boi.

He’s told multiple press outlets that he didn’t attempt to make a hit show when he pitched and got Atlanta greenlit.

“Atlanta is a Trojan horse,” Glover told Timemagazine in August. “The thesis was: How do we make people feel black? It turned into something more attainable than that, but that was the idea. I was like, ‘Let’s make something that shouldn’t be on the air, something controversial.’ If it’s canceled in 10 episodes, I’ll be happy with those episodes.”

Since becoming a fan of the show which Glover stars in, produces and writes, I’ve gone back to check out his stand up, music and past videos and have become obsessed fan. The boy has serious talent!

Congrats to him and his new family. We wish them all the success in the world!

Antonio Cromartie welcomes Twins Jynx and J’adore, His 11th and 12th Children

May 12, 2016 by JJ

Congratulations to ex New Jersey Jets player Antonio Cromartie and his wife Terricka Cason Cromartie on the birth of their twins this past Sunday, May 8th, 2016.

Keeping with the theme of giving their children names that start with the letter “J”. The couple decided to name their new daughter J’adore Nayvi and son Jynx Jevell.

We suppose the name Jynx is a derivative of the common pop culture reference to say “jinx” when you and another person say (or type) the same thing at the same time. The second baby would be the jinx? shrug Who knows. The different spelling makes that name quite unique and a stand-out as well.

This is Cromartie’s 11th and 12th child. They share a son, 3-year old son Jagger and daughter, 5-year old Jurzie. And Terricka has a daughter named Jordynn (another spin on the name commonly spelled Jordan).

They announced the twin pregnancy earlier this year. It is being called a miracle pregnancy because Antonio reportedly had a vasectomy in 2011, Terricka told US Weekly they didn’t use protection because they assumed the vasectomy worked.

According to WebMD, a vasectomy is an 99.85% effective birth control method. Only one to two women out of 1,000 will have an unplanned pregnancy in the first year after their partner has had a vasectomy, the site said.

Congrats on the miracle babies and welcome Jynx and J’adore!!

You are Beautiful J’adore in every single way @jadorenayvi ?

Of Course Kanye West named his son ‘Saint’, Of Course

December 7, 2015 by JJ

Well, when your ego is as large as Kanye West’s, a man who nicknamed himself Yeezus after Jesus Christ, then you’d understand why he’d name his son Saint.

West and his wife Kim Kardashian-West announced the name they gave their newborn son who arrived this weekend.

A source close to the couple told US Weekly that they had been referring to the baby as “Saint” long before his birth because they regarded him as a miracle baby given their struggles to conceive the second go-around.

“I had this condition called placenta accreta. There were a couple little operations to fix all that, so that created a little hole in my uterus, which I think made it really tough to get pregnant again,” Kardashian is quoted telling C Magazine. “It was a long road. I would go to the doctor in Beverly Hills every day at five in the morning to get tested to see if I was ovulating . . . I was trying everything: I did acupuncture and got a nutritionist to eat healthier, thinking that was an issue.”

A ha!!! And…it fits with the family theme. If you’ve ever read any Kanye West quotes you will realize that there’s a little bit of narcissism going on there.

North is the highest place you can go.

There is also royalty in the family. The kid’s cousin, Kourtney Kardashian’s youngest child is named Reign Aston Disick.

In the Catholic tradition, martyrs who die promoting or defending the faith may eventually become canonized by a Pope and become Saints. It’s a lengthy process that starts with tons of sacrifice and devotion.

Or….you can just skip all that, appoint your child the same name yourself and call it a day.

After all, as someone pointed out to me, there are children named Angel and Messiah. Also, many Hispanic parents name their kids Jesus. (pronounced hey-sous) so Saint isn’t a far stretch, albeit its uniqueness.

We’ve all grown to accept and love North’s name and likely will do the same with Saint.
