Seriously? OMG! WTF?

BABY Spice Emma Bunton is to have a baby of her own, The Sun can exclusively reveal. The Strictly Come Dancing star has revealed she is three months pregnant with her first child. The father is her long term boyfriend, ex-Damage singer Jade Jones. Emma, 31, and Jade, 27, have been together for the last eight years, and moved in together last year. The blonde star said today: "We are so happy, it’s unbelievable news! What a great start to the New Year! "We’re really looking forward to having a family together and to the rest of our lives." Emma added: "I guess I will be handing over the ‘Baby’ tag now to a deserving little new owner!" The former Spice Girl is due to give birth in the summer and had her first scan this week at a private hospital in London. It means that Melanie C, formerly known as Sporty Spice, is the only Spice Girl NOT to have a baby.

Her and Scary should have a joint baby shower! 

YOU may not believe its self-important slogan, "The Most Trusted Name in News" – but CNN is definitely the most tanned name in news. Nearly 100 honchos at the ratings-challenged cable network jetted off to the Bahamas for some fun in the sun this week – much to the chagrin of other CNN rank and file who were left behind. TV gossip site FTVLive.com reports that among those hitting the beaches at the exclusive Atlantis resort on Paradise Island are Jim Walton, president of CNN Worldwide, and Jon Klein, president of CNN/U.S. But the timing couldn’t be worse. As the CNN elite splashed in the blue-green sea and relaxed in 84-degree sunshine, the network suffered a jolting third-place finish among cable-news channels in its coverage of President Bush’s State of the Union address. While Fox News was way out in front in the crucial age 25-54 demographic with 1.17 million viewers, the usually last-place MSNBC was second in the category with 751,000 viewers, followed by CNN’s 668,000. The FTVLive site says that while "CNN suits are partying it up," network lackeys back home are "trying to keep a lid" on the tropical trip. "CNN claims that they exceeded their financial budgets so instead of putting it back into the company and giving some much deserved raises, they decided to break their arms by patting themselves on the back," the Web site said. "[There are] a lot of unhappy people in Atlanta, especially those who didn’t get to go on the trip," the site reports. "Sadly, we also hear that there will be people who won’t be getting raises this year due to ‘cutbacks.’ Well, except for Anderson Cooper – he’s the golden child." Cooper just signed a new contract for $4 million a year. Rooms at the Atlantis for a week range from $3,200 to $10,185, and the tasting menu at the Nobu outpost there goes for $150 per person. Messages left at the rooms of Walton and Klein were not returned. A CNN mouthpiece wouldn’t comment to Page Six on the trip, how much it cost or any unrest among the troops, instead crowing: "We’re coming off a phenomenally successful year, both in terms of ratings and profit growth, and senior management is hatching plans for continued success."

Page Six

Why is he still there? I never understood why they let him run CNN after he ran CNNSI into the ground?

In a bizarre turn of events, the tour bus that normally carries country music’s long-haired beauty Crystal Gayle, was used as an escape vehicle by fugitive prison escapee Christopher Daniel Gay. Gay, who escaped while being transported between states, was eluding police when he began his journey to Florida from Tennessee in Gayle’s blue Prevost tour bus. “I am glad that no one is hurt. I wish he would have gone to see his mother, who is very sick, instead of joy riding in Florida.” said Gayle from her Nashville, Tenn. home. Thursday evening (Jan 25), at about 6:00 PM, Gayle’s office was contacted by USA International Speedway Operations Manager Barry Williams to inquire about Gayle’s bus being in Lakeland, Fla. Williams had quickly become suspicious of the driver who identified himself as Daniel Pitts and said he was at the track to pick up NASCAR driver Tony Stewart. After being questioned by Williams, the bus driver left “to get a sandwich.” Williams asked police to run the plates of the bus, thereby determining that it belonged to Gayle. Rumors of Gayle’s bus being abandoned by Gay and recovered by Florida police are circulating. There is no confirmation of that report and no information regarding the condition of the bus or the whereabouts of Gay.

How random is that?
BTW here is a great quote from her husband in the Miami Herald:
Her husband and manager, Bill Gatzimos, couldn’t immediately be reached for comment today, but he told WSMV-TV, “There’s got to be a country song in having your bus stolen and taken for a joyride by a fugitive.”
