« Today's News: Our Take

Spice Girl Hauls Reluctant Babydaddy Eddie Murphy into Court

Yesterday Scary Spice filed a petition in Superior Court to legally establish ex-boyfriend Eddie Murphy as daughter Angel's father and to get him to cough up some damn child support already. The baby, said the singer less frequently known as Melanie Brown, "will always know that she was planned and wanted by both of us." At least for the short while it took to conceive her.

In other baby news, yesterday on Today, Chris O'Donnell revealed that he and his wife Caroline Fentress are expecting their fifth — yes, fifth — child. "We're just starting to figure out how it works," he said. "I think I know why this is happening." Well, like my mama always said, acknowledging the problem is the first step toward solving it.

I'm SO disappointed at Eddie Murphy for not stepping up to the plate and acknowledging his new baby. What's his problem anyway? It was bad enough that he made Scary Spice do a paternity test, but then again, maybe he really wasn't sure if it was his. But after the test proved he WAS the father, he still ignored both her and the baby. I use to be a fan of Eddie, but seeing how he's acting in his personal life really turns me off.

I have to agree. He's become a real jerk and I won't be spending any money to help his career.

Congrats to Chris O'Donnell and family! I'm glad there are still a few people out there that don't feel that having more than 2 children is ludicrous. 1 or 2 kids are plenty for many people (and perhaps all they can afford), but other families thrive with lots of kiddos running around. I come from a family of 5 kids myself, and it was great! Lots of love, lots of friends. :8}
