Just call her America’s Next Top Mother. Lisa D’Amato and her husband welcomed a baby boy into the world yesterday, with the former America’s Next Top Model All-Stars winner posting the good news on her Instagram page. “My baby boy Daxel Vaughn Friedman is born,” she wrote. “He is 7pds 2oz and he is perfect! I’m in love.” In May, D’Amato told E! News that she wasn’t exactly enamored by her expecting state. “My pregnancy has been a complete nightmare, to be honest,” she said. “I can’t believe women do this on the daily! I haven’t been bedridden or anything, but nausea all day everyday and only starchy fatty foods help it subside.” But all appears good for D’Amato and Friedman now. The couple got married on September 30 and this is their first child together. We send them our very best wishes.
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2? More like cloudy with a chance of $35 million, as the animated hit is forecasted to chow down on its box office competition. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 Trailer When final figures come in Monday, the inevitable sequel to the 2009 hit is expected to coast to the top of the charts at theaters in its opening weekend. The debut met most analysts’ expectations and ends September, a normally sluggish month at the box office, on a flourish for the movie industry. Even if reviews were mixed on the sequel, critics agree that its success illustrates the hunger families have for something compelling to see with kids. So much so that it thrashed two films many believe to be early awards contenders, Ron Howard’s racing thriller Rush and Hugh Jackman’s crime drama Prisoners . Those two movies battled for a distant second, with Prisoners’ $11.2 million (in its second week in theaters) looking to be enough of a haul to claim it. Rush took third with $10.3 million in its first weekend of release. The Paula Patton comedy Baggage Claim was in fourth place with $9.3 million. Rounding out the top five? Don Jon, the raunchy comedy and directorial debut of Joseph Gordon-Levitt, with a respectable $9 million thus far. Here’s the top five at the box office according to early estimates: Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 : $35 million. Prisoners: $11.2 million. Rush: $10.3 million. Baggage Claim: $9.3 million. Don Jon : $9 million.
You guys know I love girls in Daisy Dukes, considering I talk them up about 3-4 times a week. But after those lame Miley Cyrus pictures yesterday, my former favorite hottie clothing item was running a distant second to leggings. It was downright depressing. Thankfully though these shots of Imogen Poots showed up, and I’m officially back in love with Daisy Dukes again. Oh, and Imogen too. Here’s hoping we see more of both of them. Enjoy.

As most of America gets ready to watch Green Bay pummel the Steelers, Leighton Meester made the weekend hers as The Roommate hit the top spot. Sanctum lost itself at a distant second place and America’s Horny Sweetheart, Natalie Portman, settled for the third spot. Your weekend receipts are here.
Tyler Perry returned to his message board Tuesday to thank his fans for making Why Did I Get Married Too? the nation’s second highest-grossing film of Easter weekend — a distant second, alas, behind Clash of the Titans . It wasn’t supposed to go that way, of course; Married once upon a time had April 2 all to itself (despite formidable-ish competition Miley Cyrus) before Warners required an extra week to release the Kraken in underwhelming 3D. That move ended Perry’s No. 1-opening streak at two films, thus prompting the mogul to passive-aggressively contemplate what could have been.
