Eryka Badu Gets Her Twitter On While Getting Baby Out

Erykah Badu you so crazy girl

I love Eryka Badu's music - in fact her album New Amerykah, was one of my faves of the year - but that lady is on the road to crazy town at lightening speed. Yesterday, in what must be a dream come true for Twitter, Badu tweeted the birth of her newest child from contractions to cutting the placenta (yum). She joked that she and baby daddy, Jay Electronica, named their little girl "Twitty Milk". That's not funny, she shouldn't play with my emotions like that - I had the same name picked out for my first kid and I thought I was about to have to change it. Congrats to mom, dad and little baby Badu.

Speidi Elopes - So Why Do We Care?

Ok, so I'm putting this in the "Bump Watcher" category just in case that's the reason these despicable pseudo-celebs tied the knot. I'm a little hesitant to put them there though because I don't really see them getting their swerve on. Their entire relationship seems staged and doomed to fail much like her clothing line and singing career. Over at the Entertainment Lawyer's blog, he's got (what I think) is a fantastic prediction: yet another reality program centered around the couple's relationship.

They don't even look like they enjoy kissing each other which isn't a great sign for a couple in love.

Now, clear something up for me - when two people elope isn't it in oder to be private and not make a big "to-do" over the wedding? I'm curious because Heidi and Spencer "eloped" in Mexico but brought an entire magazine photo crew. Things that make you go hmmm.

So, if they do make another "reality" program, will you watch it? Do you even care about these people any more? Will you be like me and watch only so you can hate them even more than you already do?

Bronx Mowgli Wentz Has Arrived

Ashlee Simpson finally had her baby last night and she and her hubby Pete Wentz named him Bronx Mowgli. I liked The Jungle Book as much as anyone possibly could but I'm just not sure a middle name like Mowgli is going to help him from not getting beaten up in school.

Truth be told, I'm excited to watch this little emo baby grow up and get dressed in all Clandestine Industries onesies. Pete, Ashlee, my gift of baby's first eyeliner is on its way. Congrats!

It's a Sunny Day for Adam Sandler and Wife

Obviously I've been living under a rock and didn't look at the "You Don't Mess with the Zohan" premiere pictures all that closely because I didn't even know Jackie Sandler was pregnant again!

Adam and Jackie Sandler

I suppose my ignorance was a good thing because I didn't have to do a countdown and bake a cake for this one like I normally do for celebrity babies. On November 2nd, Adam and Jackie welcomed their second daughter, Sunny Madeline Sandler. Congrats to the couple and to their first daughter Sadie.

Celebrity Baby Update: Amy Poehler, Dave Grohl and Others

Get your scorecards and Sharpies out, it's time for more celebrity baby news!

It was a large weekend update for Amy Poehler and husband Will Arnet as they welcomed an 8 pound 1 ounce baby boy, Archie Arnett. I'd like to think that the name came from the Archie's comic books - mostly because I was an avid collector as a child. Someday I'll figure out that the world doesn't revolve around my wants though.

Amy Poehler and Will Arnet

I thought an 8 pound baby was big, but Caroline Rhea popped an even bigger baby girl. At 22 1/2 inches long and almost 9 pounds in weight, baby Ava Rhea Economopoulos is scaring me from ever thinking about giving birth.

It's great news for the world of scary facial hair! Foo-Fighters frontman Dave Grohl and his wife Jordyn are expecting a little bundle of joy. It will be the couple's second child.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman and his wife are expecting their third child. I love PSH and everything but if I'm a baby I don't think I'm comfortable with a face full of beard.

It's Another Boy for Gillian Anderson

Gillian Anderson

Scully had a baby boy on October 15th and he weighed in at a healthy 6 pounds 15 oz. Felix is the second boy for Gillian Anderson and her boyfriend Mark Griffiths. These two must've been huge fans of "The Odd Couple" because their first boy's name is Oscar. I probably would've held out for a girl and started with Mork so I could have a Mindy later. Nanoo Nanoo!

Denise Huxtable Is Preggers Along Wiith The Rest Of The World

Well, if you've got your celebrity pregnancy checklist out, you can put a stamp on former Huxtable slacker, Lilakoi Moon (aka Lisa Bonet). She is 7 months along and feeling great. Wait, she's seven months along already and this news is only breaking now? Did everyone just think she couldn't stay away from Old Country Buffet?

Lisa Bonet

I have to say, Denise was one of my least-favorite of the Huxtables (second to Vanessa). She was always doing things like dropping out of college and getting married without telling her family about it. Also, she didn't appreciate the love of a good man, Dwayne Wayne, when she was attending Hillman.

It's A Boy For Marky Mark and Rhea Durham

Congratulations go out to Mark Wahlberg and Rhea Durham as they welcome their third child, Brendon Joseph, into their funky bunch. He weighed in at 7 lbs. 10 oz. and has dreams of being a Pampers model.

Rhea Durham and Mark Wahlberg

Now that they've made it through their third child, Mark has decided it's time to get married which I think is a great idea. 5-year-old daughter, Ella Rae, can be the couple's flower girl and 2 1/2 year-old Michael will make a great ring bearer.

Jenna Jameson Caught The Baby Bug Too

While earlier reports of adult film star Jenna Jameson's pregnancy were untrue, she just told Perez Hilton she's got a soy nugget in the oven! Momma's a porn star and Daddy Tito Ortiz is an ultimate fighter...can't wait to see if this kid grows up to be a librarian.

Keeping Track of Celebrity Babies

It has been an incredibly busy week for all you bump watchers out there - it's hard to even keep track of who is with child and who popped that sucker out already. So, it's probably time for a little recap:

Gwen Stefani finally gave birth to her and Gavin Rossdale's second child, Zuma Nesta Rock. Their first child, Kingston, really lucked out with his name.

My Name is Earl star Jason Lee and his girlfriend, Ceren Alkac added a daughter to their family on August 10th. The name has not been released as of yet but if Lee's son Pilot Inspektor is any indication, this girl might be giving Zuma Nesta Rock a run for his money.

The newest angel to join the Victoria's Secret family is model Alessandra Ambrosio's baby girl, Anja Louise Ambrosio Mazur.

Move over Baby Spice, Fetus Spice is taking over the womb of Sporty Spice, Mel C. This will be the first child for Melanie and her longtime boyfriend Thomas Starr.

Angie Harmon and her hubby Jason Sehorn are ready to add a third child to their clan. While they were trying to keep it a secret for a while, Angie has told an ever-elusive "source" she can't wait to "flaunt her bump". The world apparently can't wait either.

Matt Damon and wife Luciana welcomed Gia Zavala on August 20th. The Sexiest Man Alive now has three daughters in his entourage.

Charlie Sheen and his new wife, Brooke Mueller, are already knocked up. Sheen has two daughters with ex-wife Denise Richards.

Actress Minnie Driver is pregnant and unwilling to give details about the baby daddy. I can't say I normally care who the donor is, but when they try to keep it a secret, I can't help myself.

Jennifer Garner is on bump watch again. Here I thought she and Ben were likely candidates for Divorce Court. It just goes to show you, I know nothing about marriage.

Do you feel up to speed yet? Me neither. Either way, when the next eggo is preggo I'll let you know.

Ricky Martin is a Papi!

Excuse my beauty but how did this news get past me? Ricky Martin is the father of twin boys all of a sudden. No word on the mother (she didn't bang), but she did have two healthy boys for the singer.

K-Fed Prediction

Yeah, I'm putting Kevin Federline in the "Bump Watcher" category, cuz big poppa is getting a rather large gut. There's no hate coming from me with this one, I can hardly resist the temptation to run to KFC for their new fried chicken wrap thing myself! But I'd like to put a bet on one of K-Fed's next career moves...it shouldn't shock you, you know it's coming.

Ashlee Simpson - Following Jamie Lynne's Lead?

Oh this is just too good to be true. The Sun is speculating that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz might be engaged AND pregnant. At a recent cd signing event for her new album, Out of My Head (Ya Ya), the better Simpson sister's ring finger was looking a bit more bedazzled.

We're really sorry to say this because we're sure of at least some backlash but...Pete Wentz is a sexy beast.
We don't care if you're not into the androgynous emo skater-punk look. There is something undeniably hot about him.

Jennifer Aniston's Eggs Get Chilly Reception

What in the HELL is in the Hollywood bottled water these days? Starlets are not only getting knocked up every other day, but it seems like many of them are having twins. Jennifer Lopez (née J. Lo) and hubby Marc Anthony (née that dude who used to be in Menudo) finally welcomed their two new celebuspawns into the earth. Was it just us, or were those babies taking their sweet time to come out of the womb and into the limelight? It seemed like Jennifer was pregnant for the last three years. Felicitationes to the new family!

Jessica Alba and manwhore fiance Cash Warren are also expecting twins. Perhaps this will now overshadow her role in the straight to DVD classic - Honey.

Another A-List Pregnancy, Trashy Wedding and Old Spice

Rumor has it that Nelly Furtado is preggers again, maybe that's why we couldn't even recognize her at the Grammys. The glow normally associated with getting knocked up translated into her wearing too much bronzer.

Geri Halliwell ruins our weekend by dashing all of our hopes and dreams of paying lots of $$ to see the Spice Girls play another tour. The good news is, we'll always have Spice World to turn to during the dark times of spice drought.

Baby Walrus - Ghostish (mp3)

Incredible artist Jim Denevan creates short-lived masterpieces in the sand. He does everything freehand with a stick he finds on whatever beach he is combing. It is incredibly hard to believe he can be so exacting without the aid of any measuring tools. We're guessing he doesn't suffer from ADD.

Babylicious

Fergie Ferg is gonna be singing about her hump, her hump, her lovely baby bump soon. Page Six reports that Fergs and Josh Duhamel are going to be expecting their very own little black eyed pee wee. We say good for both of them! At least this isn't exactly a shotgun wedding since they were engaged before knowing about little baby Fergamel.

More disturbing than Fergie's crystal meth addiction, and possibly what pushed her to going that route, is this Kids Incorporated song they had a young Ferg sing to an incredibly creepy clown. At no point in this video is it made lucid why the clown is there or why she is singing Lionel Richie to him. STAY AWAY LITTLE FERGIE! The only thing scarier than a clown is a clown who plays with a yo-yo.

Thank goodness for Frizz Ease baby.
