RIHANNA IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT

Uh -oh. We were afraid this might happen. It looks like Rihanna’scelebration of pregnancy” look has caught on. When Rihanna was expecting she started wearing VERY skimpy outfits that exposed and played up her expanding midsection. Many times the get-ups were TOO skimpy and in questionable taste- especially for occasions like elegant restaurants. This IS a red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival, but Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima sorely lacks elegance and looks more like a belly dancer than a supermodel here. Using Rihanna as a role model is not always a good idea. This look will be hard to forget…

JENNIFER ANISTON IS A VICTIM OF HER OWN POPULARITY

Jennifer Aniston gets an A+ for her essay on Huffington Post protesting the media’s torment of her and other female celebrities. Tabloids DO deserve a good scolding for torturing her ever since Friends made her a star. Having written for tabloids, we witnessed first hand just how NICE she’s always been to her fans and even the paparazzi. Unfortunately AND fortunately for her, Jennifer happens to be one of the most popular stars of all time and most in demand for magazine covers. (She SELLS!) So when there’s a shortage of news, reporters make up silly non-litigious stories about her personal life (“Jen wants Brad back”, “Jen wants a baby.”) They hurt her but don’t damage her career. We agree with her about the fake pregnancy stories – they’re nasty and mean-spirited, but they exist because Jennifer is just too damn popular. Jennifer’s essay won’t change the media, but hopefully it will educate readers and fans.

Ashlee Simpson gets quite plump and almost unrecognizable when she’s pregnant – just like her sister Jessica. But they both have very pretty babies. Ashlee is determined to maintain her health and she keeps up her grueling gym routine at the Tracy Anderson studio. After all, she is giving birth to Diana Ross’s grandchild! Her husband Evan Ross is always with her and totally supportive.

KHLOE KARDASHIAN AND LAMAR ODOM: SECRETLY PREGNANT WITH TWINS?

According to MediaTakeOut, Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom are expecting twins, thanks to fertilization treatments. The source says Lamar bragged to his family and SOMEONE leaked the top secret info. The source feels they wanted to keep it a secret so it wouldn’t overshadow Kim’s absurdly overpublicized upcoming marriage, so they planned to withhold the info for two months. We’re skeptical, because if Lamar REALLY wanted to keep it a secret, he wouldn’t tell his chatty relatives. Or maybe he WANTED the news to leak out…The source insists they will deny the truth until after the wedding. We shall wait and watch Khloe’s tummy.

TORI SPELLING’S DRESS LEFT LITTLE TO THE IMAGINATION

Tori Spelling’s little black dress wasn’t so little. On Sunday, Tori and Dean appeared at the GLAAD Media Awards and Tori got the room buzzing that she MUST be expecting baby #3 because her dress was shaped like a muu muu. Tori sensed the buzz and confessed via Twitter today that yes, indeed, she IS expecting another baby. Her mom Candy later gushed her excitement about the pregnancy on Facebook. Modern family.

MARIAH CAREY’S DRESS FROM A PEA IN THE POD SCREAMS “I”M PREGNANT!”

Let’s face it, women don’t shop in maternity stores unless they’re expecting a baby. Mariah Carey continues to dance around baby questions, but her clothing is doing the talking. The Daily Mail uncovered the fact that she is wearing a brown $140 maxi dress from the maternity shop “a pea in the pod.” Women who AREN’T expecting don’t shop at this store (with the possible exception of Kirstie Alley.) We’re betting she’ll be photographed in other dresses from the same outlet. This seals it for us- Mariah is definitely expecting and we’re happy for her.

MARIAH CAREY HAS CLEARED HER CALENDAR FOR A BABY

We’ve been observing Mariah Carey’s ballooning weight and medical visits for months now, predicting that she’s been plumping up from fertilization treatments. THAT’S why she’s not upset about her weight gain. She and her husband of two years, Nick Cannon, are eager to start a family. (Friends say Mariah already treats her dogs like babies.) Her pregnancy has ALMOST been confirmed by RadarOnline. However, Mariah’s publicist has refused to officially comment on the matter. When Mariah dropped out of Tyler Perry’s latest movie, which is set to start filming this month, it was assumed by insiders that she was expecting. Why else would she pass up an acting opportunity?

It looks like Mark McGrath (musician and former Extra host) has finally committed to his long-term relationship with Carin Kingsland, who is obviously expecting. They’ve been together for over fifteen years – with a few breaks. But they always reunited, and this time it looks like they MEAN it. We’re sure he’s happier than he looks in this photo.

Now that she’s pregnant, MAYBE Amy Adams will find time to marry her boyfriend of seven years, actor/artist Darren Le Gallo. They’ve been engaged for over a year and planned to marry in 2009, but Amy’s been so busy working on movies that she kept postponing the big event. Actually, Darren is the one who’s been pushing to tie the knot sooner rather than later. We’re guessing that “Julie & Julia” star Amy, 35, will prioritize the wedding now that she’s expecting.
