Congratulations! Julia Roberts Is the Proud Mom of Twins
Julia Roberts and hubby Danny Moder finally welcomed their new additions to their loving family at 3 a.m. on November 28. What are the names? Not as odd as the recent trend of celebrity baby names. (Coco Cox, Apple Martin ... the list is now getting pretty big) Julia gave birth to beautiful baby girl - Hazel Patricia and baby boy - Phinnaeus Walter.
But Phinnaeus and Hazel?
Hazel is retro by at least a couple of generations. The world stopped having Hazels around the time it stopped having Berthas and Gladyses and Mildreds. The last time Hazel was heard from was 1961, when Shirley Booth played a busybody maid of that name in a sitcom of that name. Phinnaeus is even more retro, as in Old Testament retro, and more obscure than such OT running mates as Methuselah and Obadiah.

Another mommy to be, um well we don't know that for sure. Britney Spears has been widely rumored to be pregnant. In recent posting on her own website it is blatantly obvious that at least she plans to be.
Is Britney Spears in the family way?
Spears recently announced that she was taking at least a few years off before touring again. "A lot of people think you should wait till you are older to have kids," Spears writes. "I've had a career since I was 16, have traveled around the world & back and even kissed Madonna! The only thing I haven&'t done so far is experience the closest thing to God and that's having a baby. I can' wait!"
The 'Toxic' singer opines that it's important to have children when you're young like her own mother, who "looked sexy in her black dress [when she went to church and] would come home and put on her size 2 shorts and a bikini top to wash the car & get a tan at the same time."
Spears also has comments that are not likely to endear her to career moms. To be a really good mom, I feel your child needs to be your fulltime job, she writes. "I want to raise my kids and share all of those precious moments with them and not rely on nannies." | source: MSNBC

This seems to be deja-vu. I recall Nicole Kidman having some controversy over her smoking habits. This was in fact the case, Kidman made headline news in May 2003 when she smoked throughout a press conference at the Cannes Film Festival.
Now...

I am not a fan of smoking and I muss confess do like the ban of smoking in some establishments. However, this tactic of what it a blatant personal attack seems rather harsh. Hmm, I wonder if I would feel the same if it wasn't Nicole Kidman who they were going after?
