Entertainment Tonight did it! They finally did it! After weeks of refusing to retract their false report that Angelina Jolie had given birth to her twins, they’re owning up to the fact that they got it wrong.
Sort of!
None of this would’ve have been such a big deal if exec producer Linda Bell Blue admitted the bogus Internet rumor their story was based on was total bunk, but now it’s just an embarrassing stain on their, ahem, reputation.
SIKE! “Actress Angelina Jolie’s doctor has said her twins may take a few more weeks to arrive. Dr Michel Sussmann said at a news conference that the 32-year-old was doing fine and would give birth ‘in the weeks to come.’ Dr Sussmann stressed that the actress had checked into the hospital to be closely monitored, not because of any medical emergency.”
• Yeah, this girl is definitely a Lohan. Poor thing. [ICYDK]
• According to foreign stalkers, Angelina Jolie hasn’t popped out the twins yet but she is in the hospital preparing for labor. [PS]
• Blake Lively doesn’t want to be compared to Paris Hilton: “I don’t go to clubs, I don’t party, I don’t dance on tables and I don’t like sex tapes.” We knew we liked her. [INO]
• Speaking of Paris, she says boyfriend Benji Madden won’t let her get a tattoo because he thinks she looks “pure” without. So it’s safe to say he’s officially delusional. [DListed]
• Why you should believe the Madonna rumors. [Jossip]
HERE WE GO AGAIN “A French magazine reported on its website Wednesday morning that Angelina Jolie has given birth to her twins.”
If there’s one celebrity who needs to cross over into the music business, it’s Jason Bateman. The man whom we will always refer to as Michael Bluth visited David Letterman last night and sang what will surely be one of the summer’s hottest tunes. We won’t give much away, but it’s about poopy diapers and it’s sung to the tune of “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.” The man truly is a genius. CONTINUED »
A Lopez family “source,” describing the most believable scene ever:
Jennifer wants to be the perfect mother, but she crumbles if any normal little thing goes wrong. If the twins cry, she thinks it’s because she’s a bad mom, and bursts into tears herself. Marc had to sit her down and make her understand that she’s a good mom and it’s normal for babies to cry.

A NEW TRAIN WRECK IS BORN “There is a new baby in the Spears clan! Jamie Lynn Spears and her fiancé Casey Aldridge welcomed a baby girl Thursday morning. People confirms exclusively that the baby was named Maddie Briann.”
HERE SHE COMES “Doctors are preparing Jamie Lynn Spears for a C-section due to complications in her pregnancy. … Jamie Lynn’s family members including the baby’s father, Casey Aldridge, are gathering at Mississippi Southwest Regional Medical Center in McComb, Ms.”
ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER BABY “Tori Spelling and husband Dean McDermott welcomed their second child, a daughter, on Monday, People has confirmed. Stella Doreen McDermott was born at 3:13 p.m. in a Los Angeles hospital via C-section.”
Good news for pig-headed men across the world: In an effort to keep her post-pregnancy rack, Christina Aguilera plans to continue breastfeeding her son, Max, until he has celebrated his second birthday. Xtina evidently “loves her fuller cleavage” and “wants to keep it as long as she can.” Except replace “her fuller cleavage” with “all the male attention.”

SHE POPPED “Jessica Alba and husband Cash Warren have welcomed a baby girl. Honor Marie Warren was born June 7 in Los Angeles, her rep, Brad Cafarelli, confirms. This is the couple’s first child.”
• Heidi Montag’s sister, ladies and gentleman. (Site NSFW) [DS]
• John Mayer doesn’t like Guitar Hero, because he obviously feels threatened by the masses who spend all day playing video games. [ICYDK]
• Gavin Rossdale was named best celebrity dad by In Touch. Because if there’s anything a tabloid knows, it’s good parenting skills. [INO]
• Jessica Simpson continues to infect Nashville. [PS]
• Vin Diesel reproduced — get ready for The Pacifier 2! [DListed]
IT’S A COUNTRY BABY, Y’ALL “[Jamie Lynn Spears and Casey Aldridge] got a bunch of furniture delivered to their new house, including a leather recliner, a leather sofa, and a king-size canopy bed. The nursery for the Spears rugrat also has in interesting color scheme: pink, brown, and ’silver-green.’ The best part? Their new property has a studio (which used to a hair salon) – and a barn. Of course it does.”
According to testimony obtained by the Associated Press, Entertainment Tonight, modern America’s version of the stocks, knowingly aired a false report on Friday that claimed Angelina Jolie had given birth to twins. Anonymous sources with insider knowledge of the incident say that ET knew well before it broadcast the information that it had come from someone impersonating Jolie’s assistant, but the decision was made to air it anyway. ET – of course – says the AP’s information is bogus.
We don’t care know who to believe, but kudos to the mystery performance artist(s?) making a mockery out of all the people getting excited over babies they’ll never, ever see in real life.
The week began with reports that bidding on Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s baby twin photos was skyrocketing past a $15 million mark; today brings word the final sum could hit $22 million, as the tabloids feed the human trafficking frenzy. (What’s an ultrasound worth?)
• Katie Couric is thisclose to being out at CBS News. Again. [Jossip]
• Jack Black said Brangelina forgave him for spilling the beans about their fetus twins because they didn’t want to hold in their secret any longer. Because they were staying quiet against their will? [ICYDK]
• The world can rest easy: Christina Aguilera plans to produce more babies. [INO]
• In a matter of 24 hours, Cameron Diaz has dropped Diddy and is now flirting with Jennifer Aniston’s ex. Hollywood is so incestuous. [Us]
• Shia LaBeouf’s healthy reasons for taking up acting: “I thought it could bring me security, it could bring me structure, it could bring me my family.” [PS]
DOES HE HAVE TO REPRODUCE? “Newlyweds Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller are eager to take what Mueller calls ‘the next step‘: starting a family. Although the couple are knocking down reports that they’re already expecting, Sheen, 42, tells Extra: ‘Doesn’t mean it’s not part of the plan.’”
FINALLY, BRAD AND ANGIE GET THEIR DUE “The bidding for the Brangelina twins pics has reached a whopping $15 million — and will probably go a lot higher. Our magazine spies tell us only PEOPLE and OK! are left standing in the bidding war. One spy says the pics are so valuable they would ‘print blank pages’ the rest of year to get them.”
