Celebaby: Boring, Boring, Boring

Celebaby: Boring, Boring, BoringThere's nothing fun going on in the world of Celebs and their babies just now - it's all boring, boring, boring!

I'm already bored of Beyonce, Blue and Jay Z - the lastest, just in case you're not bored, is that they (Beyonce and Jay Z) have donated more than $100k to the Lennox Hill hospital where Blue was born.

This was, apparently, given months before she was born and the hospital are denying claims that the rather posh and swanky delivery suite, complete with kitchen and other things bla bla bla, was built especially for them.  According to a spokesperson, "they just happened to be the first to use it." Fancy that!

By all accounts there was a complete lock-down at the hospital when Beyonce et al were there, upsetting many of the other new parents there who felt that their special moment had been ruined as family couldn't get in to visit.

You know, if celebs want complete privacy and for the whole world to be shut out when they have their babies, perhaps they should consider having them at home!

What else has been going on?  Not much!

Victoria and Harper Beckham have 'done lunch' together in London - whoppipe-do! HA! I don't think I've ever said, or written 'whoppie-do' in my LIFE! This is a very strong indication of the mood I'm in today - honestly, do we CARE that the Beckham girls are in London and that Victoria is still carting that poor little girl around like a living accessory?!

Christina Aguilera has been out messing around at a theme park with to celebrate her son's fourth birthday and Orlando and Flynn Bloom (still with the MOST adorable child on the planet (bar my own youngest son, of course - and I'm singling him out as a favourite over the other two either, it's just that 17 and 16-year-old teenagers can't really be described as 'adoreable') have been out hiking, with Miranda and their dog.

See, it's all going on in Celebaby land *yawn*  Maybe something exciting will happen over the weekend for me to tell you about next week - something other than such-and-such-a-pregnant-celeb' has been seen out wearing sky high heels, or so and so went to the park with their child.

WHOOPIE-DO!

Celebaby: Chips Of The Old Blocks

Celebaby: Chips Of The Old BlocksCertain celebrity kids are definitely chips off their old blocks - the Beckham and Bloom kids are just some of them.

Beckham Blocks

Cruz Beckham, now six-years-old, is now sporting a mowhawk hairdo a'la his dad in 2001, and is a real spitting image of his dad - I'm telling you, all the Beckham boys are going to break hearts and feature on many a teenage girl's postered wall in not too many years to come.

Harper Beckham is growing up FAST and, at all of four months old, already seems to be perfecting her mum's expressionless pout - mind you, I 'd probably look less than impressed at being carted through another airport again for yet ANOTHER fashion show and yet ANOTHER shopping trip somewhere too.

Celebaby: Chips Of The Old BlocksFlynn Bloom

If I had to choose my favourite celebrity trio of 2011, there'd be no contest - Orlando Bloom , Miranda Kerr and their son Flynn Bloom would win hands down.

Flynn has to be THE cutest celeb' child I've ever seen - in fact, across the child board in general - he's utterly GORGEOUS and becoming more so by the day.  Miranda and Orlando seem to have their feet firmly planted on the ground, they're both invariably smiling and it's clearly rubbing off on the lovely Flynn (Victoria B, take note!).

He was photographed out and about with his mum, pushing him in a stroller, and MY WORD did he provide some fabulous photo opportunities for the ever-present media; what a little dude!

Celebaby: Baby Bits And Pieces

Celebaby: Baby Bits And PiecesThere are lots of various celeb' baby bit and pieces of news floating around at the moment...

Aleph Portman-Millipied

Natalie Portman had her son last month, on 14 June, and has managed to keep his name a secret up to now.  It has been revealed on Israeli TV that he's been named Aleph (or Alef) which is, apparently, the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet.

His parents have also double-barrelled their surnames, giving him the full moniker of Aleph Portman-Millipied.

Flynn Bloom

Of all the celebrity babies I've seen - and I've seen lots of them, as you can imagine - Flynn Bloom (Orlando Bloom and Mirander Kerr's son) HAS to be the cutest of them all; he's just GORGEOUS!  And can you believe he's seven months old already?!

Miranda was away in South Korea recently for work and confessed to be missing Flynn massively, even after just 24 hours.

Now it's Orlando Bloom's turn to be away - he's away in New Zealand filming The Hobbit, speculation is this is where Miranda and Flynn were heading when they checked in at Los Angeles International airport a couple of days ago.

Claudia Winkleman

Claudia Winkleman won't be presenting Strictly Come Dancing It Takes Two on BBC2 this year, as she gave birth to a baby boy yesterday evening and will now be taking time off to be with him and the rest of her family.

Details of his name, if he's been given one, haven't been released yet but you can be sure it's not going to be something wild and wacky; Claud' has two nicely named children already, with her movie producer husband, Jake (8) and Matilda (5).

Zoe Ball will be taking over the It Takes Two presenting hot seat for this coming Strictly season.

Celebaby: The Blooming Blooms

Celebaby: The Blooming BloomsThe Bloom family - could they be any more beautiful?

1) In certain guises I think Orlando Bloom can look rather hot; I'm looking forward to seeing him back with long blonde hair and pointy ears when he reappears on the big screen as Legolas the Elf in The Hobbit (he does nothing for me as Jack in Pirates of the Carribean though).

2) Mrs Bloom, aka Miranda Kerr, gave birth to their son five months ago and pinged back into stunning shape almost overnight - I shouldn't like her for this reason alone, but I do.

3) Could young baby Flynn Bloom BE more gorgeous?! He's properly handsome, cute and clearly destined to be one of the beautiful people.

Miranda is the face of lingerie giant Victoria's Secret; she's currently away on business in South Korea and has spoken, on video, to journos about how she has managed to stay looking SO amazing

So whilst Mrs Bloom is out of town, Mr Bloom is holding the gorgeous baby and the boys have been doing a bit of male bonding over coffee; they were papped at the Chaya Cafe on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles the other day.

I have no qualms leaving any of my children behind when I go away; I don't miss them when I'm not with them and I'm wondering if a) I'm just weird or b) it's something that comes with having teenagers instead of cute babies.

Anyway, this is Miranda's first time away from Flynn and she is firmly in the 'I'm missing my child!' camp, it was this tweet that gave it away...

Just arrived in Korea for work for one day. First night away from Flynn… Miss him so much already :-(

I can't help it, I just want to roll my eyes and tell her to toughen up; I think I'm more 'tiger mummy' than 'maternal pussycat'.

Celebaby: Bloomin' 'Eck!

Celebaby: Bloomin' 'Eck!It's NOT fair!

Just look at Miranda Kerr aka Mrs Orlando Bloom - six months preggars and can STILL wear skinny jeans!!!

OOOH, I've just had a thought...maybeee they're size 16 skinny jeans; what do you think? Clutching at straws...? Yeah, I thought so.

So, Mr and Mrs Bloom have been spotted out and about in Paris, with Orlando doing the protective expectant father thing of shielding the bump from dangers such as low flying (hideous) animal print handbags.

The couple got married in secret back in July and then announced afterwards that Miranda was already four months up the duff.

I wonder if they'll do the, almost, obligatory glossy magazine 'happy families' photo shoot...?

I quite like Orlando Bloom, he seems pretty inoffensive and I don't know much about Miranda other than she 's still wearing skinny jeans whilst six months pregnant.

In fact ANYONE who can wear skinny jeans ought not to be allowed out in public quite frankly!

I have to content myself with the fact that she looks somewhat demonic in this photo and Orlando Bloom looks terrified - it's amused me and made me feel better about Mr and Mrs Perfect in Paris!
