Daily Baby: Angie’s Due Date Revealed, Christie Brinkley Does a Little Dance + more

Today show reporter Natalie Morales revealed on yesterday’s program that another actor spilled the beans about Angelina Jolie’s pregnancy. Dustin Hoffman told her the babies were due Aug. 19.

Christie Brinkley, 54, is a huge fan of Dance Dance Revolution on the Xbox 360. The model and celebumom promoted the game for National Family Fitness Day at the Dunlevy Milbank Center Boys & Girls Club in Harlem, saying that in her New York home, she and daughter Sailor, 9, have been locked in fierce competition. “We were literally doing it for like five hours, we couldn’t stop,” she said.

According to court papers, actress Anne Heche, 38, and mom of Homer, 6, says she can no longer afford to pay the nearly $15,000-a-month in child and spousal support.  Her show, Men In Trees, has been cancelled, and, as she wrote in the court papers, “I am continuing to look for work, but I have no offers pending and the impending strike by the Screen Actors Guild reduces my prospects for work even further.” A judge gave the actress a temporary break, saying she didn’t have to pay her next support payment to her ex Coley Laffoon, 34, covering the month of July.

Get Halle’s Post-Baby Bod

Halle Berry’s workout secrets are out! To get back into shape after giving birth to daughter, Nahla, the actress, 41, works out for 60 minutes, five days a week with trainer Ramona Braganza (whose other clients, according to her website, include Jessica Biel and Anne Hathaway), People magazine reports. Ramona’s challenging sessions for Halle include, “three cardio segments – on the elliptical, as well as kickboxing and then a stairs or hill climb. Then, she also does a strength-training routine that include abdominal work and leg exercises.”

But Halle’s body bounce back wasn’t all accomplished through exercise. Halle is reportedly eating the typical lose-weight-the-right-way trifecta of vegetables, lean proteins and complex carbohydrates. She is also staying hydrated by drinking lots of water.

Besides divulging Halle’s post-baby regimen, People.com also has a great photo feature of celebumoms’ secrets to “feel (and look) like a star” post-baby. Check it out here.

Mommywood’s Favorite Quotes of the Week

“I love being pregnant. [It makes] you feel like more like a woman than you’ve ever felt. You just feel like everything about your body is there for your baby.”—Angelina Jolie on the Today show

“Joel actually changes more diapers than I do . . . It’s his time with her. He sings to her, he laughs with her, plays with her. It’s amazing.”—Nicole Richie to Extra

“I can’t say [getting pregnant] was a total accident. Because you’re aware of when you’re being careful and when you’re not. It just happened so soon. I never believed women had to be virgins when they got married, or that a woman has to fall in love with a guy just because they’re having sex. I don’t think sex is a big deal.”—Jessica Alba to Allure magazine (Hmm…is this a good message to her young fans?)

Daily Baby: Bump Rumors for Beyonce, Brit’s Fender Bender, Gwen + Gavin’s Night Out

Beyonce and Jay-Z have been married for just a month, but that hasn’t stopped gossips from speculating that the couple is expecting a child. Beyonce’s father, Matthew Knowles, did not deny a New York Post claim that his daughter is pregnant. “They said that a month ago,” he told Usmagazine.com Tuesday. “We don’t comment,” he said. “We just let people make fools of themselves.” Sounds like tabloid fodder to me.

People magazine reports that Britney Spears was involved in a minor car accident Tuesday afternoon--rear-ending a red Ford Explorer in Beverly Hills. “I think she was just distracted,” said a witness. “She just tapped the other car in front of her.” No hit and run for Brit—she exchanged her insurance info with the other car’s driver within the confines of her gated community.

Gwen Stefani was spotted having dinner at Marix Tex Mex in West Hollywood on Monday night with hubby Gavin Rossdale and her No Doubt bandmates. Glad the mom, who is expecting baby #2 soon, took a fun night out with Gavin and her pals.

Naomi Shows Her Angelic Side

When she’s not giving pal Nicole Kidman baby advice, celebumom Naomi Watts will be mugging for the camera as the new face of Thierry Mugler’s classic scent, Angel.  Choosing to represent the brand “was an easy decision,” Naomi told People magazine. “To me, the Angel woman is someone who has many faces and is not afraid to show all facets of her personality. She’s both vulnerable and strong and flirtatious and for me, I guess working as an actor you have to play all those emotions all the time.”

People asked the actress whether she sees herself as angelic off the screen, to which Naomi, mom of Alexander, who will turn one in July, said, “I think every woman likes to be thought of as angelic. Especially in the eyes of men. But I think that you shouldn’t be afraid of your strengths. And that’s exactly what I felt the first time I smelled the perfume. It’s gentle, its soft, it stays with you. It feels strong. To me, it’s not being afraid of showing who you are, embracing who you are.”

Naomi will star in a glamorous print campaign, which will grace magazines and billboards this October, and she just finished a commercial shot by Dreamgirls director, Bill Condon, for the perfume as well.
