Baby bump watchers may want to keep their eyes on Mel Gibson’s suddenly famous other-woman Oksana Grigorieva. According to gossip site TMZ, Grigorieva is “definitely pregnant” with Gibson’s child.

Just last month the actor’s wife, Robyn Gibson, filed for divorce due to “irreconcilable differences,” and now sources say that his girlfriend is already several months pregnant. Still, the news should come as no shock to Mel Gibson’s soon-to-be ex, as the father of seven allegedly already shared the news with his family.

The story confirms an earlier report in the National Enquirer, which not only broke the Grigorieva bombshell, but also reported that Mel Gibson’s children weren’t happy to hear about their upcoming sibling.

“In late April, Mel gathered his children at the family home in Malibu and broke the news that Oksana is pregnant, and he expects them to accept the baby as a new sibling,” a family friend told the magazine. “They are quite upset. Even though Mel assured them the pregnancy was unplanned, they’re furious with him and say they’re going to take steps to protect their inheritance, which they feel is in jeopardy.”

Sex tape dashed Paris Hilton’s dreams
Poor Paris Hilton. It seems the pampered reality star never wanted a life filled with glitz, glam and pay-to-play parties. As a young girl, she dreamed of being like Princess Diana. Too bad that sex tape she made with ex-boyfriend Rick Salomon dashed that dream.

“When I heard about (the video) I thought, ‘Yeah right. It’s going to be a look-a-like. It’s going to be a joke,” Hilton explained for the documentary “Paris, Not France.” “A couple of hours later it was all over online, and I saw it. But with that, you know, it’s like it’s the most intimate thing you can do. The whole f--king world is watching it and laughing at you.”

According to Hilton, the humiliation and subsequent paparazzi fascination made it impossible to live the life she once envisioned.

“That’s not what I wanted when I was a little girl,” she said. “It’s not what I planned. I always looked up to people like Princess Diana and now I can never be like that.”

Miley didn’t mean to offend skinny girls
After using her Twitter account to defend “jiggley thighs,” Miley Cyrus realized she might have gone too far. The Disney teen queen ended her Tweet-filled weekend with a message just for the “skinny girls.”

“I just jiggled my thighs and they shook on their own for 3 Mississippis,” she wrote. “No more late night lucky charms.”

Rather than leaving her fans with the impression that there’s anything wrong with a 3-Mississippi-jiggle, Cyrus soon added, “Oh and PS, if your thighs don’t jiggle go see a doctor. Thanks. :)”

That only made matters worse.

“Wow. Now I’m upsetting people cause I’m putting down skinny girls,” Cyrus feared. “@nicolerichie has one the tinniest most adorable body and even HER thighs jiggle! Everyone’s do!!! I’m not putting skinny girls down! I believe in exercise and treating your body like a temple :)”

Dish on the fly
The real “Star Trek” villains are the bloggers who pick apart the film online, according to the new Captain Kirk, Chris Pine. “The amount of dissection of the minutiae of this movie … I was blown away by the protectiveness,” Pine told GQ magazine. “I’m definitely guilty of looking at the blogs, and I’m not a fan of the anonymity (of the Internet), how it allows people to just spew poisonous vitriol like vomit.” … Before Gwyneth Paltrow bared it all for the film “Two Lovers,” the actress asked director James Gray to make sure her breasts were still in tip-top shape. “Gwyneth told me, ‘I don’t care about nudity, I’ll give you everything you need. But I’ve had two children and I just don’t think they look very good any more. Do me a favor, come into my trailer and I’ll show them to you and if you think they look OK, I’ll do it.’” In a quote published in The Sun, Gray explained, “So I marched in there and I told her they looked great.”
