It’s a Boy For Elizabeth Banks!

Posted on March 30, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Elizabeth Banks and husband Max Handelman are now the proud parents of a beautiful boy named Felix, who was born via gestational surrogate. “I have been very fortunate in life both professionally and personally,” the 30 Rock star, 37, wrote on her website in a post announcing the birth. “The one true hurdle I’ve faced in life is that I have a broken belly,” she added . “After years of trying to get pregnant, exploring the range of fertility treatments, all unsuccessful, our journey led us to gestational surrogacy.” “From that came two miracles. The first was meeting our carrier and her husband who were truly humbling in their decency and generosity.” “The second miracle was the birth of our baby boy, Felix Handelman.” “Felix means ‘happy’ and ‘lucky’ in Latin. And true to his name, Felix is a very happy baby and a blessing on our life,” she concludes. Congratulations to the happy parents! [Photo: Fame Pictures]

Jennfer Lopez Defends Save of Casey Abrams

Posted on March 30, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Casey Abrams might still be in shock. The same goes for American Idol viewers, who didn’t expect the judges to use their one save on him so early in the season. But that they did last week, a decision Jennifer Lopez says she’s fine with. “We knew that it was kind of a radical decision because it was so early in the season, but to be quite honest… that is one decision that I haven’t lost one ounce of sleep over,” the singer told Ryan Seacrest on his radio show today. Should the judges have saved Casey Abrams? Vote now ! Okay… but why Abrams? “[Casey] is one of our most dynamic performers. He’s so interesting and so talented,” Lopez told the American Idol host. “I know it’s crazy, but we had to do it!” Now, of course, the decision is out of Lopez and the judges’ hands. Best of luck choosing the winner, viewers! “I really feel we put 11 amazing contestants in front of them, and now it’s [about] who their favorite is, who’s going to be their American Idol,” concluded J. Lo. “I didn’t realize I was going to fall in love with the contestants the way I have and feel for them the way I do.”

If this isn’t a recipe for a happy family, we don’t know what is. It looks like Brad Womack has finally won over Ricki, his fiancee Emily Maynard’s five-year-old daughter, with probably the best possible combination: Justin Bieber and cotton candy. In this Us Weekly photo , The Bachelor couple and Ricki stepped out for a visit to the movie theater in Maynard’s hometown of Charlotte, N.C. It was cute. “He was smiling at her, and she looked really happy,” an observer says of the trio, who were emerging from a matinee of Justin Bieber: Never Say Never . Despite some major setbacks – long distance, a cancelld March wedding, a short-lived split, some poking of the bear – it looks like they’re gonna make it . Womack said it was “perfection” bonding with “my girls” during the visit over movies, Sunday church services, an IHOP run and shopping at Nordstrom. All together now … AWWWW! Things were looking down for awhile, but never say never! What do you think? Will Brad Womack and Emily Maynard last?
