Maya Rudolph: Pregnant with Fourth Child!

It sounds like Maya Rudolph will soon be up all night once again, for the most miraculous reason possible: The actress is pregnant! Multiple sources confirm that Rudolph is expecting her fourth child with writer/director Paul Thomas Anderson, as the couple is already parents to Pearl, 7, Lucille, 3, and Jack, 19 months. The exciting news comes on the heels of a questionable time in the star’s professional life. Christina Applegate has dropped out of NBC’s Up All Night after the network chose to change the creative direction of the sitcom, making it into a multi-camera series in front of a live studio audience. The future of the program is now unclear, with Rudolph’s pregnancy only complicating issues.

Beyonce and Jay-Z: Cutest Couple Ever?

They may not have won our Tournament of THG: Couples Edition, but Beyonce and Jay-Z are very much in the running for cutest celebrity couple. Ever. Take notice, Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev . The bar is set high. Case in point: Any number of scenes from Bey’s Life is But a Dream documentary. One particularly touching moment from the special? Beyonce and Jay-Z singing Coldplay’s “Yellow,” written by their close friend Chris Martin, to each other. The occasion? Learning she was pregnant with Blue Ivy . The HBO film shows footage of a sonogram, her growing bump and Beyonce bikini photos (tasteful ones of course), but the mutual serenade really stands out. Check out the pair singing at the 1:07:00 mark below: Beyonce “Life Is But A Dream” Documentary

Octomom Nanny to DCFS: Help! She’s on Drugs!

Nadya Suleman was paid another visit by the Los Angeles Department of Child Services amid fresh allegations that she is unfit to raise her 14 kids. Amazingly, this is unrelated to the Octomom topless strip club gig. Workers from the DCFS arrived at Nads’ home Saturday night after a former nanny complained that she’s been under the influence and her kids are suffering. According to the nanny, Octomom is on drugs, drinking heavily to the point of blacking out and forgetting key details ( reporting her kid missing when he wasn’t, etc). Moreover, Nadya Suleman lives in a filthy house, allegedly leaves her kids unbathed for days at a time and does not change their clothes for weeks in some cases. Weeks. DCFS made Octomom aware of the allegations against her , searched the premises and asked a ton of questions regarding her situation / condition before leaving. Apparently DCFS didn’t feel there was enough evidence to yank the kids out of the home – there’s a VERY high threshold for that – but an investigation is pending. The agency has been there many times before. Most recently, in April 2012, her hair stylist complained of horrendous living conditions and DCFS showed up. She was allowed to keep the kids then, miraculously. Will she be granted the same right this time? Or will officials finally decide that enough is enough? On the plus side … the Octomom porn recently won some AVN Awards. Actually maybe that’s not a plus in this case, but congrats just the same, Octo. You tell us, THGers: Should Nadya’s kids be taken away?   YES! For their own good! NO! She’s their mother! View Poll »

Kris Humphries to Choose Divorce Trial Over NBA Playoffs

While trade rumors continue to circulate around Kris Humphries , this loser of a power forward is reportedly giving the Nets another reason to ship him out as soon as possible. The baller’s divorce trial against Kim Kardashian is scheduled for May 6, smack dab in the middle of the NBA playoffs. Will Kris therefore skip the legal proceedings, which could easily go on without him? Will he agree to settle before this mess goes in front of a judge? No and no, according to TMZ sources. Humphries has apparently already decided to skip any playoff games that fall on the same day as the trial because he is just THAT determined to embarrass his ex-wife. The news comes on the heels of Humphries’ attorney dropping Kris as a client and with anyone of sound body and mind knowing he has NO chance at successfully arguing that Kim duped him into a marriage. Then again, with Humphries only averaging 6 points and 6 rebounds per game, the Nets may be thrilled to see him voluntarily sit a game or two out.

Pro-Dorner Protestors Gather Outside LAPD Headquarters

A handful of protestors took to the streets outside LAPD headquarters in California yesterday, showing support not so much for the actions of Christopher Dorner, but for the arguments he made against the department. Dorner died on Tuesday of what authorities now say was a self-inflicted gun shot after he was cornered in a cabin in Big Bear, CA. He had been the subject of a massive manhunt following the alleged killing of at least three people, a rampage he claimed on Facebook was tied to his dismissal from the police force in 2009. The protestors say they do not condone Dorner’s killings, but do take issue with how the manhunt was handled, especially how police accidentally shot at two different trucks they believed to be Dorner’s. One woman hit in those incidents is still recovering. “How the police handled this — they were the judge, the jury and the executioner,” a protestor named Michael Nam told The Los Angeles Times . “As an American citizen, you have the right to a trial and due process by law.” The protestors also were rallying against corruption and racism in the LAPD, as the event was organized on Facebook, along with an announcement to keep it “peaceful” and the missive: “This is not a page about supporting the killing of innocent people. It’s supporting fighting back against corrupt cops and bringing to light what they do.”

Young Money Mini: Reginae Carter Signs To Lil Wayne’s Record Label

Young Carter joins the family business…. Lil Wayne’s Daughter Regina Sings To His Record Label YMCMB bossman Lil Wayne is keeping his eldest child and only daughter where he can see her as she ventures into teen territory. Weezy recently revealed that his 14-year-old first born Reginae will officially be joining the Young Money family. via MTV News Young Money is keeping it all in the family, quite literally. The label’s newest signee is none other than Lil Wayne’s daughter Reginae Carter. In an interview with Rap-Up TV, YMCMB honcho Mack Maine explained, “Wayne’s daughter, Reginae, is actually signed to Young Money now.” He further added about the new generation of Young Money “youngins”, “You can expect big things from Young Money’s youngest signee. “Just expect greatness. She’s Toya [Wright’s] daughter and Wayne’s daughter, so that’s a great combination. She’s a megastar.” It was heavily speculated that Weezy was the one who pulled the plug on Reginae’s short stint with the OMG Girlz back when Tiny & Toya had their own reality show, but we never quite got to see what it was that she actually did in the group. Will Reginae be a pint-sized protegee of her father’s, or a budding songstress? Hmmm…. Photo Credit: Joe Pearson

Believe It Or Not? Chris Dorner Autopsy Report Complete And Actual Cause Of Death Confirmed

Is this really how Chris Dorner died? Chris Dorner Autopsy Report Confirms Cause Of Death The San Bernardino Police Department has announced the results of deceased ex-LAPD officer-turned-fugitive Chris Dorner’s autopsy report.  Dorner died during a police stand off earlier this week and it is being reporting that the cause of death was suicide. via ABC News Christopher Dorner, the former Los Angeles police officer who went on killing rampage appeared to have killed himself, authorities said. The autopsy showed that Dorner’s cause of death was a single gunshot to the head. “The information that we have right now seems to indicate that the wound that took Dorner’s life was self inflicted,” said Capt. Kevin Lacy of the San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department in a press conference Friday. Dorner, 33, was found dead after a standoff with police. The cabin where Dorner barricaded himself in went up in flames on Feb. 12. Authorities said police made “numerous PA announcements identifying [Dorner] by name, asking him to surrender,” before firing pyrotechnic tear gas inside the cabin Dorner had holed up in, causing the building to go up in flames. “We did not intentionally burn down that cabin to get Mr. Dorner out,” San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon told reporters on Feb. 13. Not too many can argue with autopsy reports….that is, if you believe that the police department is giving us the full run down. However, the fact still remains that there are more than a few unanswered questions surrounding this shoot out and eventual death of Chris Dorner that the officers involved have yet to address, like these . Makes you wonder what there is to hide, riiiiiight?
