The latest from our Heart and Soul
The Hollywood hills are abuzz with babies, bumps and bad break-ups once again. You have to love the never ending stream of gossip and stories that filter out of Hollywood; 
I know it keeps me entertained for hours.
I love the attention to all the silly details that the rag mags and tabloid include, like the National Enquirer “reporting” on Ryan Seacrest’s Pig Out Diet break. Now don’t we all sleep better at night after reading that story? Tongue-in-cheek, you have to love the silliness of it all and indulge in some celebrity mayhem to relax (melt) the mind a little.
Here are my top 3 picks this week...
- HE WON’T BE BACK! - Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver break up after 25 years of marriage. Word is that Maria had been contemplating it for a couple of years now, but the death of both her parents put her decision on hold. There have been many rumors of Arnold’s cheating ways over the years; wonder if there was any truth to it all? Still, there is something sad about a marriage ending after so many years.
- BABIES and BEER! - So Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon had their twins, daughter Monroe and son Moroccan. I can hear the schoolyard teasing now. You may not have heard about it since it happened during the Royal Wedding and just before the Bin Laden announcement. I am sure Mariah fired someone over the bad timing of the delivery as she could not hog all the media headlines. Turns out the couple have been parents for less that a few weeks and child welfare has already been called in. Nick was on Piers Morgan and talked about how the tabloids are spreading lies, trying to get access to a picture of the twins. Turns out a nurse was explaining to Mariah that the yeast from Guinness Beer improves breastfeeding and someone over heard this and tried to sell the story of booze and drugs to the tabloids. Crazy how out of hand nabbing the first picture of celebrity babies has become.
- BUMPS! - Is it just me or do celebrity women stay pregnant longer? I am on high alert over some baby bumps and it feels like I have been on alert for, well, years with the same bumps. Take Pink for example. I LOVE HER and can’t wait to hear about her becoming a mama. I am also dying to hear the name they have chosen for their new bundle. But it feels like she has been preggers for ever and lawdy do I know that feeling. Other bump watches on the go: Kate Hudson, Natalie Portman, Ivanka Trump and Jessica Alba. WOW! Remind me not to drink the water! Also, Tori Spelling is pregnant, AGAIN, with baby number 3 on the way. They have wasted no time.
Are you watching a bump? If so, who? What about Mariah and Nick’s baby names? Good, bad, other?
