Gerard Butler paid tribute to Michael Jackson yesterday by dangling a fake baby out the window of his London hotel room. Aw, remember when M.J. did that with a real baby in Berlin? Memories...

Anyway, Gerry's fake baby is actually a plant wrapped in a towel, and he looks a little too pleased with himself. You can just tell he's high-fiving himself in his head for coming up with such an epically funny stunt that's actually pretty lame. And that is what we find amusing.

She already sounds like a budding cover girl...even if it's Parenting, not Vogue.

Victoria's Secret supermodel Adriana Lima and her NBA hoopster hubby, Marko Jaric, welcomed their first child on Sunday, a  daughter named Valentina Lima Jaric.

"Mother, father and baby are all doing well," the publicist for the Brazilian-born catwalker told People. No further details were released.

The 28-year-old Lima, who maintained her virginity until she met Mr. Right, and 31-year-old Jaric, a Serbian basketball player who currently plays for the Memphis Grizzlies, started dating in 2006.

He popped the question last year, and the happy couple eloped last Valentine's Day, tying the knot in a private civil ceremony in Jackson Hole, Wyo.

It didn't take them long to start procreating. The catwalker confirmed the pregnancy in May.

Just as Khlomar's wedding excitement is dying down (or is it?), it's time to pack Kourtney Kardashian's hospital bags.

The E! star is expecting her little one with boyfriend Scott Disick next month and, today, it was time to shower the upcoming arrival.

Kourtney's sisters and pals from college and beyond gathered at Kris and Bruce Jenner's home in Calabasas at noon. In true Kardashian fabulousness, both Kourtney and Khloé arrived fashionably late.

A sign hung in the windo of the sisters' clothing boutique, Dash, announcing that the store would be closed Saturday, and was signed with x's and o's.

No word yet as to how many rolls of toilet paper it took to wrap the mom-to-be's belly completely or if there was a diaper tutorial at the baby bash.

After weeks of speculatons and a bump no longer containable but modern apparel technology, Rebecca Gayheart finally came clean today and confirmed she's expecting her first child with her husband, Grey's Anatomy's Eric Dane.

"We've always wanted to be parents," she tells InTouch Weekly. "I think Eric is going to be a wonderful dad, and hopefully I'll be a good mom. We're absolutely looking forward to it!"

Which is all well and good until the former Noxzema Girl and accomplished home-movie star decides to let the world know about her prenatal health regimen.

"I'm doing yoga, and I'm walking on the beach every day with my dogs for about an hour," she says. "I drink lots of water and eat a lot of vegetables and protein."

Hmm, and what about those cigarettes she hasn't been able to stop sucking on? Guess they must be the baby-friendly kind.

This is not the type of baby news we like to deliver: Céline Dion is no longer pregnant.

Last August, the golden-piped songbird and husband René Angélil confirmed that she was three months along with her second child after undergoing a round of in vitro fertilization treatments.

Unfortunately, that is no longer the case: Angélil confirmed to the Journal de Montreal that the 41-year-old Canadian chanteuse is no longer in the family way, as the embryo transfers—which took place in August and October—were ultimately unsuccessful.

Angélil said that both they and their doctor "believed that the procedure/pregnancy took, but that wasn't the case. We found out some days later. We were shocked."

But not deterred.

Typically, the only bombshells on The Tyra Banks Show come in the form of leggy models and busty babes.

We doubt anyone was expecting America's Next Top Model judge "Miss J" Alexander to drop one when he appeared on the show yesterday. Especially not this one.

"I'm a dad," he revealed.

However, his 7-year-old son, Boris, is not his child biologically.

Both he and his ex-boyfriend, Alex, were approached to help a woman get pregnant.

"A French lesbian had asked if we would be sperm donors," he said. "So we thought, 'OK, you want me to do you?' And she was like, 'Oh, I'm not that talented.' So I said, 'OK fine.' So we did a little test tube."

After three tries, the woman gave birth to light-skinned Boris, who is clearly Alex's son.

"I said, 'Oh, Lord. Thank God. No child custody hearings—he's yours," Miss J laughs, although he is still an active part of the child's life.

Whoa, mama: Tiffani hold-the-Amber Thiessen is pregnant.

The erstwhile Kelly Kapowski (or, if you're that way inclined, Valerie Malone) has confirmed to E! News that she's expecting her first child with actor hubby Brady Smith next May.

"We are over the moon!" the couple said in a statement. "It's something we've wanted for a long time and are thrilled that it's actually happening."

With all the other extracurriculars occupying Thiessen's schedule, it's any wonder they found the time.

Still, if our calculations are correct, Thiessen is roughly three months along in her pregnancy—which means it's safe to say we know what she did last summer. Hey, how else do you propose celebrating the start of a new show?

We can't wait to spot all the carefully placed pillow-clutching in her character's future. Congrats!
