Jennifer Lopez gives birth to twins

Jennifer Lopez gave birth to twins – a boy and a girl – on Friday morning after one of pop music’s most closely-watched pregnancies.

The boy and girl, delivered in a Long Island, New York, hospital, were the first for the 38-year-old actress and singer, whose efforts to become pregnant have filled tabloid pages in the past few years.

Anthony, a 39-year-old salsa singer, has a daughter and two sons from two previous relationships.

Lopez did not confirm her much-rumoured pregnancy until early November, when she announced the news to a Miami audience while on a concert tour with her husband.

The babies were born at 12.45am local time on Long Island, New York State. Lopez, 39, and husband Marc Anthony, 38, married in 2004. The twins are her first children, and his third and fourth.

Hally Berry’s Man Going for “Father of the Year”

The baby isn’t even here yet, but Gabriel Aubry is already hard at work trying to be a good daddy. He’s reading every parenting book he can get his hands on. His personal fave? He says, “There’s a good one that Dr. Phil did titled Family First.”

He’s also doing his best to make sure expectant mother Halle Berry is as comfortable as possible. He massages her feet and finds the foods to satisfy her every craving. Now isn’t that a good man?

Aubry also spends time talking to the baby. He says, “I talk in the mic in her bellybutton….that’s what we call it.”

With Daddy’s dashing good looks and Mommy’s beauty, this baby, due in early 2008, is sure to be a pretty one!

More Happy News

Any of my readers already know that I get a bid fed up with reporting stars’ drug, violence or alcohol issues, and get really pleased when I can tell you all about weddings, births and engagements. Well, this is me really happy…announcing yet another engagement in the star struck world.

Despite conflicting claims that she had turned down the proposal, Delta Goodrem has accepted the offer of being “his lawful wedded wife” from former Westlife singer, Brian McFadden. Original news had claimed she said she felt too young to settle down, but the couple are eager to quell these rumours; proud to announce their forthcoming nuptials.

Big congratulations to the happy couple, I love it when cheerful news is afloat. We await eagerly more news of the wedding.
