Celebrity Babies

Watch the throne, Blue Ivy. You don't have the cuteness crown all to yourself.

Right after Beyonce and Jay-Z were presenting the first Blue Ivy Carter photos to the world, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon got in on the act, offering up the clearest, cutest pic yet of their baby girl and boy twins, Monroe and Moroccan.

Or as Mariah calls M&M, dem babies:

Between Moroccan, Monroe and Blue Ivy, you may melt from cute overload.

"New #DemBabies picture ... first one from 2012 : ) LYM!!" Carey tweeted on Friday afternoon, posting a link to the website devoted to her now 9-month-old twins.

All together now ... AWWW!

Welcome to the world, Blue Ivy Carter.

Granted, the first offspring of mega couple Beyonce and Jay-Z arrived on January 8, but her first photos only surfaced online today, courtesy of  the rapper's blog, Life + Times. Look at happy mother and adorable daughter below:

At first, of course, there was a question over what the baby's name actually was, but Beyonce and Jay-Z have most definitely made it very clear: they've already moved to trademark the moniker Blue Ivy.

A tad pretentious? Sure. But how can we find any fault in something really to someone so cute?!? Just look at the tyke again:

Kristin Cavallari sent photographers swarming to nab the first photo of her pregnant baby bump the other night, but would you even know the difference?

Seriously, had she not announced she's pregnant, we're not even sure the picture below would even generate the obligatory pregnancy rumors online.

In any case, here she is at Wednesday's This Means War premiere ...

"Such a fun movie," the expectant reality star, 25, Tweeted afterward. "Here is a pic from last night's premiere and [you] can see a little baby bump."

Debatable, but she's not far along right now, and it's a nice thought!

Cavallari wore a dress by Maria Lucia Hohan and accessorized with Isharya earrings. She and fiancé Jay Cutler announced the pregnancy in January.

"We couldn't be more excited," the Chicago Bears star, 28, Tweeted.

Actress Marla Sokoloff delivered a daughter, Elliotte Anne Puro, at 8:05 p.m. Wednesday, February 8 in California, her rep confirmed to People Magazine.

“Mom, dad and baby are happy as can be and completely in love with each other,” Sokoloff, 31, said of the seven-pound arrival with husband Alec Puro.

It's the first child for the couple.

The Chateau Meroux star blogged recently that “in the grand scheme of things, these nine months went by pretty quickly.”

“Yes, there were weeks that seemed endless and yes, I complained about my feet swelling up like balloons and the general discomfort that comes with the end of pregnancy - but all in all the journey has been one that I will never forget.”

Congratulations to the whole family!

She's already a mogul, this one.

Blue Ivy, Beyonce and Jay-Z's baby's name, may soon be trademarked as well. It does have instant brand recognition, and her business-savvy folks are all over that.

Blue Ivy Carter's parents filed an application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office protecting the little girl's name for possible use on a future line of baby goods.

Why the rush? There was no time to waste, apparently.

Two Blue Ivy wannabe entrepreneurs already had applications shot down, and no matter how many White House visits Bey and Jay had enjoyed, they'd still have to go through the office's first-come, first-served process like everyone else.

However, a surge in applications is usual when a new name or phrase explodes into the lexicon, and because it's the office's job to sort things out, they try to anticipate trends, subsequently fast-tracking applications inspired by names in the news.

Still, one Blue Ivy earned the trademark before Beyonce was even pregnant: The Blue Ivy clothing store in Wisconsin got unknowingly lucky in early 2011.

They can be expecting a fat check in the near future.

You don't need to be Sherlock Holmes to spot the excitement in the following story: Robert Downey Jr. is a new father!

The actor's wife, Susan, gave birth to Exton Elias Downey at 7:24 a.m. today in Los Angeles, with the star's rep confirming to People: "Everyone is healthy and they couldn’t be happier." 

The child weighed in at 7 lbs., 5 oz. and was measured at 20 inches long. He's the first child for Susan and Robert, but the actor's second overall. He has an 18-year old son from a previous marriage.

Downey will next be seen on the big screen this summer. Watch The Avengers trailer now to get an early look at Iron Man, Captain America and company.

Pregnant bride? No thank you, says Kristin Cavallari, who will not try on wedding dresses until after she gives birth to her first child with fiance Jay Cutler.

The reality TV star and the NFL star announced they are expecting their first child last month, but Kristin is adamant she won't walk down the aisle yet.

“I’m not even in the process of looking for a wedding dress right now,” Kristin said. “I’m pregnant! I’m not going to go try on wedding dresses.”

Kristin and Jay are elated with their upcoming arrival, even if they were shocked. The star appreciates the support she's received since announcing the news.

“It's been great. People have been so supportive. Heidi and Spencer [Pratt] [from The Hills] even sent me flowers, which was really sweet,” she gushed.

Although Kristin shot to fame through reality TV, the star does not want her child to follow in her footsteps: “My baby will never be on TV,” she said.

Kristin and Jay got engaged last April after a whirlwind romance. They split in July, with Kristin then confirming they were re-engaged in November.

In a new interview, Jamie Lynn Spears defends, offers praise for, and stands in solidarity with the stars of MTV's Teen Mom. She can definitely relate.

Britney Spears' younger sister, who was 16 and pregnant herself at one point, opens up about motherhood and the show in the new issue of Glamour.

"When I saw MTV's Teen Mom was coming out, I remember thinking, Oh my God, I cannot wait to see this, there's someone else out there," she says.

"I mean, I feel for those girls. I've been that girl. Motherhood is hard. It takes bravery to be a young mom, and takes bravery to let the world watch."

She's such a fan, in fact, Spears even recently reached out to one of the stars of Teen Mom 2, Chelsea Houska, over Twitter to set up a play date.

Maybe they'll meet in the middle between Mississippi and South Dakota?

Spears also talked about Casey Aldridge, her ex-fiance and the father of Maddie Briann, and how they tried to make it work, only to fall short.

Jersey Shore star Snooki Polizzi is pregnant, according to Star magazine. We'll believe it when we see it, but that's what they're saying in their latest issue.

The reality star and boyfriend Jionni LaValle are expecting, an "insider" says, spilling: “She is pregnant and has only told closest friends and some family.”

Never one to keep quiet, the 24-year-old can’t resist hinting that something's up: “She’s been telling people that she has a big announcement coming.”

... Possibly a great deal for the poor kid.

Snooki (a.k.a. Nicole Polizzi) will soon be starring in a Jersey Shore spinoff with JWoww ... if they can find a place to film after Hoboken kicked them out.

Wherever it films, Star claims Snooki/Jionni Jr. will be part of the plot.

“They are having to redo the creative direction of her Jersey Shore spinoff because of Snooki's pregnancy,” says the alleged insider of the guidette.

Despite Snooki's weight loss in recent months, the reality star has been dropping clues on social networking sites that she may be in the family way.

“I feel sick,” Snook admitted in a January 25 post on her Facebook page, then later tweeted: “Late night craving... yogurt hits the fricken spot!”

That doesn't really prove much. Much like her craving to get it in, Snooki's odd food cravings can take place at any time and involve any thing.

Then again, that could also explain the pregnancy. Congrats, maybe!

UPDATE: Snooki's rep tells E! News that there is no truth to the rumors and that the MTV star is not pregnant. Snooki herself denied the rumor later.

"I'm not [pregnant]. Does that mean they're calling me fat?" she asked on Opie and Anthony in the morning. "That means that I have a belly, then."

Angelina Jolie's life sure is a roller coaster these days.

In the tabloids, anyway. Just yesterday, she was headed to rehab after a heroin relapse, having withered away to 99 pounds. Today? Pregnant with twins! Again!

Whenever Angelina and Brad Pitt appear together, there's a tenderness and joy in their shared glances - and it has nothing to do with his Oscar nod for Moneyball.

Now, for the second time this month, a tabloid has reported that Angelina is pregnant. This time, it's OK! doing the honors, and she's expecting twin boys! OMG!!

"They were both sp overjoyed at how quickly Angie became pregnant this time," says a confidante. "They said that it showed that this pregnancy was 'meant to be.'"

Aww. Just imagine if she actually were pregnant.

But when Angie's latest ultrasound revealed there were two heartbeats, well, they couldn't believe it: "They were totally shocked," says the source. We'll bet!

No word if Maddox, 10, Pax, 8, Zahara, 7, Shiloh, 5, and Knox and Vivienne, 3, have heard the fake news, or if they're still pressuring dad to marry mom.

Either way, "They are struggling to keep it a secret. They are totally excited and buzzing, but have only spilled the good news to close friends and family."

And, via this fake source, O freaking K! magazine.
