“I wanted to be able to tell everybody because I was so excited about her. We just decided this was our thing together. It kind of just perpetuated itself … [And] it protects her and it protects everyone in the situation.”

So Kidman and husband, Keith Urban, had a child born via surrogate at the end of December, if you hadn’t already heard, and kudos to them for keeping something this big a secret, right? I guess, though, when you use a surrogate, or adopt, like Sandra Bullock, you don’t have to worry all that much about letting the cat out of the bag – it’s not as if you’re being spotted with a bump.

Also, Nicole and Keith named the new baby girl Faith Margaret, which I rather like. It’s old-fashioned, it’s sweet, and it makes me think of red-haired Southern belles baking peach pies in the kitchen. In addition?  I think the Kidman-Urbans have a deep appreciation for religion or church at the very least – their first child, Sunday? New baby, Faith? It speaks for itself maybe.

But I know a lot of people don’t care too much, because, like, between the Golden Globes, the Oscars, and the Academy Awards, it’s all pretty much the same. I, myself, couldn’t be bothered, but it was only because I was in MOVING HELL this past weekend and all of last night. Seriously? I feel pillaged. My belongings are strewn all hither thither and non, and I cannot find a fucking thing to wear. Right now I’m in sneakers, bright blue utility pants, and a long-sleeved green tye-dyed shirt, but I AM ROCKING IT. You guys are in for an interesting week, because once I’m through with all of this movingsortingutilitiesgarbagecollectionpaintandspacklehell BULLSHIT, I’m curling up in my bed for ten straight days with my notebook and a bottle of Grey Goose. FUCK MOVING.

Anyway, here you are, mega photos of your favorite stars in attendance at this year’s SAG awards – and if you’re really all that interested, here’s a list of the winners. Jump in for both!

Britney’s assistant got married yesterday in Miami, and guess who she picked to be her maid of honor?  At least it looks like Britney managed to get her weave under control for the special occasion.

While I think it’s sweet that Britney stepped up for her assistant, I can’t help but wonder about the girl who chooses Britney to be her maid of honor.  Can’t you just imagine her telling handsy groomsmen to “kiss my lily white southern Louisiana ass” and making this face when the bartender cuts her off during the reception?  I don’t know about you guys, but that does not sound like anything I would want to occur on my Special Day.

I think this is the kind of video that can do a lot of different things for different people (sort of like that one video of Clay Aiken dancing and singing NKOTB’s “The Right Stuff”).  For some, this could be a confirmation that they have a Creep in their lives that they might want to avoid.  For others, this could be a lesson that the way they’re living their lives is in fact creepy and they need to reconsider it, and for those people, I say that yes, T-rexin’ your arms is nearly always inappropriate. For me, I now have the sound and image of John Waters telling me “don’t forget to smile” with me forever.  So all in all, I’m going to call this video a success.

We’re in agreement here, right?

Could it be Justin Timberlake confirming that his relationship with Jessica Biel is a sham, as many of us already believed? Could it be Drew Lachey, father of two and brother of Nick Lachey, that well-known poonmonger (can one sibling mong all the poon from another?  Not as in cockblocking, but as in parasitically in the womb or during early childhood? Let’s research that one).  Or it could it be another boy from the hoards of bands who is following in the footsteps of Ricky Martin and Lance Bass?

Now let’s see who’s right …

Ok, but to be fair and to spread the blame evenly, it was Diddy and his ex-girlfriend.  Oh, and also Rodney King.

This is all according to a lady named Valerie Joyce Wilson Turks. Val also claims that Diddy is the father of her 23-year-old son, Cornelius.  She’s suing the rapper for child support and loss of income to the tune of a trillion dollars.  Literally, that’s the amount she’s going for, a trillion dollars.

As if that wasn’t enough damage, Diddy also swiped a super valuable poker chip from poor Valerie:

“I won a lot of money at the casino in Mississippi and Sean P. Diddy Combs has my chip to my money. I want my chip please help me. It’s well worth over 100 zillions of dollars.”

I can’t decide if I should feel bad for this woman, who is obviously not very stable, or just laugh at the absurdity of the whole thing, but I’ll bet you a trillion dollars you can tell which way I’m leaning.
