Jessica Alba has a baby girl (update with baby’s name)


Jessica Alba, 26, and her new husband Cash Warren, 28, had their first child this weekend, a daughter that was born at Cedars Sinai hospital, according to US Weekly. Jessica’s rep would not comment on the supposed arrival, although an earlier report from a tipster to Celebrity Baby Blog had Jessica entering the same hospital in labor on Friday with Cash, carrying birthing balls. (Which are just those big exercise balls and are supposed to help get you into position to open the pelvis for an upright birth and may ease labor pains.)

US reports that Jessica’s father was seen in the maternity ward and was overheard saying “she’s beautiful,” while Cash was spotted bringing in food on Saturday.

If this is true, congratulations to Alba and Warren! I bet we’ll learn the name of the little one soon, and Alba is the type to sit for a magazine spread, so in a month or two there may be lovely photos. She seems like she’ll be a great mom.

Update: Alba’s rep has confirmed the news! She had a baby girl, named Honor Marie Warren on June 7 in LA. Congratulations!

Pregnant Jessica Alba gets married on the sly

That Jessica Alba is a sneaky one. I’m not sure how she did it, but the very pregnant actress, 27, managed to get married to fiancé Cash Warren, 31, on the sly yesterday. Actually it’s pretty clear how she did it – wait for Ashlee Simpson to make a bigger deal of her secret nuptials, and then sneak off to a courthouse and get married in the basement. Okay in New York it’s a basement. In Los Angeles it’s probably all classy and up on the first floor. Though they were married “under an arch of green silk foliage and white flowers.” Sounds pretty, until you remember that silk flowers are just those fake crappy things they sell at Walmart. But who cares about foliage when you’re in love?

Mom-to-be Jessica Alba and Cash Warren have gotten married, PEOPLE confirms. The couple quietly wed Monday, says her rep, Brad Cafarelli.

According to a source, they were married in the Beverly Hills courthouse’s ceremony room under an arch of green silk foliage and white flowers. They were casually dressed, with Alba wearing a long blue dress and her hair back in a ponytail.

“She looked happy but nervous,” the source says.

Warren, in a white shirt and brown pants, arrived with Alba at about 11:30 a.m. on Monday, applied for a marriage license and waited about 40 minutes for the paperwork to be processed before a staff member from the courthouse married them, the source says.

Nobody else attended the wedding, the source adds.

[From People]

I have decided that when I get married, I am going to do it in secret. This seems to get a lot more publicity, and the pictures are worth more money. I’m going to start planning my secret wedding now, because I’m under the impression that it takes a lot of work to thwart the paparazzi. Or you can just wait until a Monday when everyone’s all tired and hung-over from the weekend, waltz down to the courthouse, and get the job done pretty quickly.

I’m kind of surprised this is how they went about it, but whatever works for you. Alba has recently noted that she’s been pretty relaxed since getting pregnant, and most everything else doesn’t really stress her out right now. She probably just wanted to get it over with and stop having people ask her about it. Jessica and Cash’s baby girl is due this summer. Congrats to the happy couple.

Jessica Alba in new video for her boyfriend’s business venture



A pregnant Jessica Alba appears in a new music video for her boyfriend Cash Warren’s social networking site, IBeatYou.com. The video features different site members and employees lip syncing to the Panic At The Disco song “Back to the Streets,” and it’s both entertaining and clever.

When I saw the video I was pretty skeptical about whether the site would be any good, but it’s like the Facebook applications meets YouTube and it seems to be both a good concept and a fun website. I haven’t seen anything like it yet. Facebook has interactivity, but it’s limited because it’s hard to tell which applications are worthwhile and you have to add them and they send all those spam invites to your friends. With IBeatYou you can compete with other users on contests that you make up, using your own ideas, photos, and videos you upload. It’s mostly flash-based and seems easy to use. It’s hard to run a successful web-based business but I bet this will take off.

Alba posted this message on her myspace telling people to check out the site:

The statement reads, “Hey guys! Hope everyone had a great Easter. It’s hot here in socal (South California). Being preggers in this heat takes everything to another level.

“We shot a quirky group lip dub music video for ibeatyou. Check it out!! We invited a bunch of users from the site and put this together last Saturday. Be well guys and check out our music video…hope you get a good laugh.”

Alba has been looking grumpy when she’s been photographed out lately, but the paparazzi really bug her so you can hardly blame her. She was a good sport to appear in the video and it looks like her boyfriend’s business might be a success. She at least brought a lot of attention to it and helped him out by appearing in their video, which is currently entered in the “Best Group Lip Dub” contest on the site.

Alba is shown with Cash at a surprise birthday party for basketball player Baron Davis on 3/22/08, thanks to WENN. Davis is Cash’s partner in IBeatYou.

Celebrity Pregnancy Update

pregnancyheader.jpg
Here’s a quick update on currently pregnant celebrities.

celebritybabiescomingsoon1.jpg
Halle Berry is due any second! I think she is going to have the cutest baby with her model boyfriend Gabriel Aubrey, but will she sell the pictures?

Jamie Lynn Spears – some sources are saying she is due very, very soon, but just doesn’t seem to have a big enough bump to be close to popping. Must be those 16 year old abs of steel.

Cate Blanchett is expecting her third with husband Andrew Upton, and I’m hoping for a girl because she already has two boys. Girls clothes are so much cuter.

celebritybabiessummerbabies.jpg
Nicole Kidman is still pregnant, definitely not drinking alcohol, and is due around June where the baby will be born in Australia.

Are Brangelina having twins? What’s the due date? These two haven’t confirmed or denied reports, but it’s all too obvious they’re having a fifth and maybe a sixth.

Jessica Alba is still flying to promote her film, so she must have quite a few weeks to go. She has declined to confirm a due date.

Matthew McConaughey is expecting a boy with model Camila, and he wants him to like beer. Enough to name the boy after Budweiser. He probably won’t wear a shirt either.

Gwen Stefani is expecting her next child with hubby Gavin Rossdale, and had a great time practicing baby making.

celebritybabiesjustannounced1.jpg
These babies will start popping out (if only it was that easy) in September

Kimora Lee Simmons just announced her pregnancy. A little sibling for her older children from her previous relationship, Ming and Aoki.

Alessandra Ambrosio has also just announced on her official blog that she is expecting, saying “This is a dream come true.”

Matt Damon and his wife Luciana, who have nine year old Alexia from her previous relationship, and Isabella, 20 months, are expecting another.

Lisa-Marie Presley confirmed her pregnancy this week, but don’t you dare suggest she’s carrying some pregnancy weight, you pack of coyotes.


I’m really looking forward to the future, when all these Hollywood babies grow up. Who is going to be a hell raiser? Will they inter-marry and create a species of celebrity offspring like never seen before? Who is going to inherit their parents good looks?

Hopefully the celebrity weeklies have their checkbooks ready, these new additions are going to cost a fortune.

Jessica Alba talks about ghosts, kicking her boyfriend out of home

alo-008782.jpg
Jessica Alba has a new movie out which is scary, so she has to share a scary story on her press junket. Normally these are kind of lame, but this one actually is truly scary.

Alba, 26, recalled: “I had no idea what it was. I felt this pressure and I couldn’t get up, I couldn’t scream, I couldn’t talk, I couldn’t do anything.

“Something definitely took the covers off me and I definitely couldn’t get off the bed, and then, once I did, I screamed, ran to my parents’ room and I don’t think I spent many nights in that house ever again!

“There was definitely something in my parents’ old house - I don’t know what it was. I can’t really explain it. But they got it blessed and they burned sage and stuff since then.”

Sydney Morning Herald

Burning sage protects from ghosts? What?

I think everyone on earth has a ghost story to share, because we all think we feel or see something in the night at least once. Of course, the protection you normally seek out when too old to run to your parents room (is 17 too old?) is to hide under the covers. Which is ridiculous – how is a sheet going to stop a ghost when they are known to able to pass through walls? Or an axe murderer with an, er, axe? Yeah, that sheet just stops you from seeing what is going to get you. Good night, sleep tight readers…

Jessica also says that pregnancy is playing havoc with her hormones. My father-in-law likes to point out about every other week that if you weren’t pregnant all those hormones in your system would kill you. I have no idea if it’s true, but I kind of believe it.

“I think I threw him (boyfriend Cash Warren) out of the house twice already since I’ve been pregnant. He’s like, ‘Are you just pregnant? I hope you’re just pregnant and acting crazy,’ and I’m like, ‘It has nothing to do with that,’” the ‘Fantastic Four’ actress says.

“Little things make me so mad. He calls five minutes later than he said he was going to. You get so emotional when you’re pregnant, and so irrational. It’s totally dumb.”

AHN

You know, Jessica seems to be putting a lot down to hormones, could it be possible that her relationship isn’t as sunny as she pretends. After all, she and Cash did break up just before her pregnancy, and I don’t hear him blabbing to all who will listen about his pregnancy joy and how great her new boobs are. Also, don’t kick him out to often – living with a rampaging crazy pregnant woman might just be enough to make him not want to come back.

Jessica had a baby shower, hosted by Tyra Banks on her talk show. If she’s not careful we’re all going to be tired of this pregnancy before she has a chance to sell the baby photos.

Is Jessica Alba engaged? (update: confirmed)

wenn1708082.jpg

Recently knocked-up Jessica Alba may be engaged. I’m allowed to say “knocked-up” because it was a movie and is now part of the lexicon, and is no longer disrespectful. Right? Okay let’s go with that. Though Alba loudly proclaimed that she wasn’t getting married anytime soon (Us Weekly reported, “She doesn’t want to be pregnant in a dress!”) it appears she’s at least gotten engaged. Photos were taken of Alba driving in her car with a very large engagement ring on her left hand.

Mom-to-be Jessica Alba was seen leaving the gym earlier today with what seemed like a huge rock on her finger.

Could her beau Cash Warren have proposed over the Christmas holiday? That rock is wayyyy too big to be a gym ring, and she wouldn’t be wearing it unless it was a new engagement ring right?

The couple had initially broken up over the summer because Alba reportedly wanted to get married and Cash wasn’t ready. Three months later, they’re back on and there’s a baby in the oven.

Alba has said that she doesn’t want to be pregnant in a wedding dress so don’t wait for a shotgun wedding, but it looks like Cash is going to make an honest woman out of Alba after all.

[From Hollyscoop]

If Jessica and Cash are engaged, I will point out that she’s also making an “honest” man out of him as well, since they’re both going to be parents soon. The couple has been dating since they met in 2004 on the set of “Fantastic Four,” where Cash was a director’s assistant. They broke up briefly this summer, reportedly because Jessica wanted to get married and Cash wasn’t ready. I don’t want to be totally obnoxious, but Cash Warren could do a lot worse than Jessica Alba. Have you seen her butt? I would give both my eyes and at least one leg for that butt. Granted it wouldn’t be nearly as sexy strapped to one leg, but I think I could make it work. If they are indeed engaged and Jessica isn’t just pulling a Britney Spears/Lindsay Lohan by wearing a huge ring on her left hand, congrats to them both!

Is Jessica Alba Engaged?

albabump1.jpg
Jessica Alba recently announced that she is pregnant with her boyfriend Cash Warren’s child, with her rep confirming that the baby is due is late spring/early summer. There was no story of a possible wedding or even rumors of an engagement, but one of Alba’s colleagues may have accidentally let the news slip. Her Fantastic Four costar Doug Jones had this to say about Alba’s pregnancy: “Jessica and her fiance are wonderful, and they’re going to make the most beautiful babies ever.”

Was it just a mistake or does Jones know something the public doesn’t? It sounds like the type of thing that could be an innocent error and pregnant Jessica might not be planning a wedding.

SFGate also reports that Alba has already declined three offers from magazines to pose in the “nude” while heavily pregnant with her hands and props strategically placed for modesty. Demi Moore, Britney Spears, and Christina Aguilera are among the celebrities who graced us with semi-nude glamor shots while pregnant, and Alba isn’t eager to join that camp. Maybe she’ll reconsider once she’s further along.

Alba has been keeping healthy during her early pregnancy. She hit the gym yesterday and the day before. She was also photographed out shopping for the holiday yesterday on Rodeo Drive.

Thanks to Splash News for the header image of Jessica outside the gym on Thursday. Her tummy is sort-of visible, but it looks more like the dress is billowing out.

We called it: Jessica Alba is pregnant


Can I gloat a little that I was the first one to call Nicole Richie, Cate Blanchett, and now Jessica Alba pregnant? It’s pretty simple really, you just spot a bump on an otherwise-skinny woman, and I have had some false positives with Nicole Kidman, but this time we were right. (I also bet JayBird $50 that Liv Tyler is pregnant again too, but that’s just a hunch.)

26 year-old Jessica Alba’s rep confirmed that she is pregnant with her longterm boyfriend, Cash Warren’s child, and that she is due in late spring, early summer:

“I confirm that Jessica and Cash are expecting a baby in late spring, early summer,” says rep Brad Cafarelli.

Alba, 26, has dated Warren, 28, since the fall of 2004 after they met on the set of The Fantastic Four, on which Warren was a director’s assistant.

[From People.com thanks so much to commentor FF for pointing it out]

Jessica and Cash broke up briefly this summer, with reports that she dumped him over the phone and had her assistant move his stuff out of her place. She was rumored to be dating 50 Cent briefly, but soon was spotted out with Cash again. There were rumors surrounding their breakup that Cash cheated on Jessica with a model and/or Jessica wanted to get married and Cash didn’t. Whatever happened, they worked it out and figured out that they were meant to be together.

Congratulations to Jessica and Cash on their upcoming arrival, that’s great news.

Jessica and Cash are shown out at a Lakers game on 12/9/07, thanks to Splash News. Here’s a link to the article where we were calling Alba pregnant.
