Suck It, Beyonce!

You’ve heard by now that Beyonce gave birth, unless you live under a rock, but then, you wouldn’t be reading this either.
Mommyish has the dish on one unfortunate family who gave birth in the same hospital.
“Beyonce and Jay-Z reportedly paid a whopping $1.3 million to take over an entire wing of the New York City hospital in order to ensure privacy. The wing is located on the sixth floor – the same level as the hospital’s NICU unit.”
Too bad for the father who kept getting turned away by security from visiting his newborn twins in the NICU.
What I don’t understand is why Beyonce and Jay-Z didn’t just do a homebirth and avoid the whole media circus. They could have paid a lot less money and still had massive amounts of the correct medical personnel.
But perhaps the reasoning has to do with the aforementioned media circus. How could they have had a high-profile, fan-building birth, with privacy AND massive amounts of non-privacy without renting out an entire hospital wing?!
And don’t even get me started on the baby’s name…Blue Ivy.
The poor girl’s been born with a stripper name!
I mean, what if she wants to grow up and be a lawyer—Attorney Blue Ivy Carter?!
Ack! Welcome to celebrity life, baby!

Suck It, Shannyn Sossamon!

Paging Audio Science…paging Audio Science…
Oh, I’m sorry…no, I’m not paging a department at a college, I’m calling Shannyn Sossamon’s son.
Babble reports that the A Knight’s Tale and 40 Days and 40 Nights star named her now seven-year-old Audio Science, saying,  
“We wanted a word not a name, so my boyfriend read through the dictionary three or four times. We were going to call him Science, but thought it might get shortened to Sci, as in Simon."
And heaven forbid if someone thought her child’s name was Simon! How embarrassingly boring!
