Actress Julia Roberts has twins

[emad]

BBC
Actress Julia Roberts has given birth to twins more than a month early.

The girl and boy, called Hazel Patricia and Phinnaeus Walter, are the first children for the Oscar-winning star and were not due until early January.

She gave birth in California on Sunday and "mother and babies are doing great", publicist Marcy Engelman said.

The Pretty Woman and Erin Brockovich actress married cameraman Danny Moder in 2002. Roberts was confined to bed last month after early contractions.

10. Hey it could be worse

Jermaine Jackson named one of his kids "Jermajesty". No kidding.

Welcome To The Cruel World, Hazel And Phinnaeus #
Yesterday, in a gilded Los Angeles hospital room, Oscar-winning actress Julia Roberts pooped out a set of babies. The twins were born a month early (which is funny, because we could've sworn Roberts has been pregnant for at least two years) and so it's time for another retarded celebrity baby-naming party! Hazel Patricia and Phinnaeus Walter Roberts-Moder (we're guessing on the hyphenation) will now join Apple Paltrow-Martin and MaKena'lei Gordon Carnahan-Hunt at the losers' lunch table. When you name your kids after domestic servants, it practically guarantees a lifetime of misery and ridicule.

6. Man, I hope they look like Chris Martin.

If they look anything like Miss Garage Door Mouth, god help em'.

7. It'd be weird if they looked like Chris Martin...

Since he's married to Gwyneth Paltrow...

Danny Moder is Roberts' husband.

8. Oh.

I guess I should pay more attention to that "Entertainment Tonight" stuff.

9. Don't bother...

Where I live, the only moderately tolerable TV when I get home from work is Insider, or whatever, and I hear an entertainment report on the drive into work every morning.

Unfortunately, I have extremely good recall of stupid facts that have no bearing on my life...and do I really care if Roberts' kids are Hazel and Phinneas? Not really...

Makes me great at Trivial Pursuit, though :D

12. Geez, i'm out of the loop, i didnt even know shw was pregnant.

13. That makes two of us chimpsrsmarter :-)

As much as Julia Roberts appears on my TV movie channels, how was I supposed to know? <g> Yes, she's a wonderful woman, beautiful and an excellent actress. However, like Tom Cruise, some actors are way too over-exposed. There must be other talented men and women out there who can "bring something new" to action/adventure/drama movies.

Congrats to Julia, hubby and babies.

Damn, twins?!? Sal-ute :-)
