Published by admin under Celebrity Pregnancy

savage1.jpg Actor and director, Fred Savage, 31, and his wife/childhood sweetheart Jennifer Lynn Stone are expecting their second bundle of joy any day now. According to speculation, the baby’s gender is another boy. All along Fred and Jennifer have been saying they are keeping the gender and baby’s name a surprise until birth. Only time will tell if the rumors are true.

Fred is best known for playing the role of Kevin Arnold for 115 episodes on the Wonder Years from 1988 until the show ended in 1993. Beginning in 1999, Fred began his directing career with episodes of Boy Meets World, which his younger brother, Ben, starred as Cory Matthews. Since that time, he’s been behind the camera directing several other shows including Even Stevens, Drake and Josh, Zoey 101, That’s So Raven and Hannah Montana. Fred was nominated this year for his second Directors Guild Award, this time for his work on the Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place. His first DGA nomination was last year for Phil of the Future, which he also co-produced. The comedy Daddy Day Camp, which came out last summer, was Fred’s theatrical film directorial debut.

Fred and Jennifer were neighbors as children, just as the character Fred portrayed as a child, who had a childhood romance with neighbor, Winnie Cooper. Unlike the characters on the Wonder Years, Fred and Jennifer grew up and were married in August 2004. They welcomed their first baby, a boy, almost exactly 2 years after they wed. Little Oliver Philip is 21 months old.

Published by admin under Celebrity Pregnancy

Actress Jessica Alba, 27, and her NEW husband (as of May 19th) Cash Warren, 29, are anxiously anticipating the arrival of their first baby which is due in two weeks. The couple’s baby-on-the-way is a girl. A popular tabloid is reporting the name Jessica and Cash have chosen for her is “Honor”. The tabloid claims a baby shower guest was spotted at a Los Angeles jewelry store purchasing a personalized gold and bead charm bracelet as a gift for Jessica’s April baby shower, with the charms spelling out the name H-O-N-O-R.

Jessica Alba’s been acting since she was a child, making TV and movie appearances beginning in the early 90s, with her film debut in the comedy Camp Nowhere. That same year, she appeared on Nickelodeon’s The Secret World of Alex Mack. She made many other appearances on the small screen including shows such as Beverly Hills 90210 and The New Adventures of Flipper. In 1999, Jessica was cast in the teen horror comedy Idle Hands and that same year she played one of the snobby popular girls, Kirsten, who terrorize Drew Barrymore’s character in the romantic comedy Never Been Kissed.

Jessica may be best known for being chosen by writer/director James Cameron to play the role of genetically-engineered Max Guevara on the Fox series Dark Angel. That series only ran for two seasons, but earned Jessica a Golden-Globe nomination. After Dark Angel ended, Jessica went on to appear in several movies including Sin City, Fantastic Four, Into the Blue, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Good Luck Chuck, Awake and most recently in the horror The Eye. Next month The Love Guru will be released, with Jessica starring as Jane Bullard.

Jessica and Cash, son of actor Michael Warren, have been dating off and on since the fall of 2004. They first met on the set of Fantastic Four in which Cash was an assistant to the director Tim Story. Immediately after announcing their baby news, Jessica was seen flashing a gigantic diamond engagement ring last December, but no wedding date was ever released. A source close to the actress was quoted for saying, “She [Jessica] doesn’t want to be pregnant in a dress!” Despite that, a quick wedding was secretly being planned it appears. According to a representative for Jessica, the pair wed on Monday afternoon, but with no friends or family present for the ceremony.

Jessica openly admits her pregnancy wasn‘t a big surprise, “I can’t say it was a total accident. Because you’re aware of when you’re being careful and when you’re not. It just happened so soon.” The expectant mom has also said, “It’s quite a blessing and it couldn’t be more perfect timing.” Jessica has dreamt about breastfeeding and says,”that’s the only thing I’m paranoid about, more than giving birth.”

Published by admin under Celebrity Pregnancy

jackblack.jpg Actor/comedian/musician Jack Black, 38, and his professional cellist/animator wife Tanya Haden, 36, are due to have their second baby by the month’s end. An exact due date has not been revealed and the baby’s gender is a secret, although there’s been speculation about a second son. We’ll just have to wait and see if that‘s true.

Jack is the lead singer of the comedic rock band Tenacious D. Along with Kyle Gass, who makes up the other half of the duo, Jack has released two albums to date: Tenacious D in 2001 and then The Pick of Destiny in 2006. Their song “The Metal” the music video game Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock. Jack’s singing style has been described as a “scat-type” of music.

As far as acting goes, Jack has appeared on his fair share of TV shows. Starting out, he had small roles on such shows as The Golden Palace, Life Goes On, Northern Exposure and The X-Files. He appeared in several movies early-on, including: Airborne, Demolition Man, The Neverending Story III, Waterworld, Dead Man Walking, Bio-Dome, The Cable Guy, Mars Attacks! and The Jackal. He went on to appear in many other movies as the 1990s turned into the 2000s. He was in I Still Know What You Did Last Summer in 1998 and also Enemy of the State that same year. By 2005, he was cast in movies such as High Fidelity, Saving Silverman, Shallow Hal, The School of Rock and King Kong. In 2006, he played the role of Miles on the romantic comedy “The Holiday”.

Last February, Jack’s new movie Be Kind Rewind was released and, in addition, Jack is the voice of the main character Po the Panda, on the animated movie Kung Fu Panda. He’s been working hard to promote the new animated adventure, in fact, he’s been in France and is headed to the remaining areas of Europe soon, then to Japan and finally Australia. He says he’s taking a break now for the birth of his new baby, before flying off again.

Tanya happens to be the triplet daughter of jazz great Charlie Haden and grew up performing along side her sisters Petra and Rachel as part of the group The Haden Triplets. The expectant parents first met back in high school, but didn’t date until they ran into each other again many years later at a mutual friend’s party in 2005. Not long after that- March 2006 to be exact- Jack and Tanya eloped after their less-than-a-year courtship. They welcomed their first baby, Samuel Wyatt, in June 2006. He is 23 months old.
