What was I telling you about celebrity pregnancies? There's obviously some sort of epidemics at work here, and I'm not just talking about the celebrities themselves, but also about the rest of us. I mean it - as far as I'm concerned at least, I suddenly became obsessed with seeing women knocked up, and if someone came to me now telling me that their 80 year-old grandma was pregnant with Brad Pitt's baby, I'd have no trouble believing it. OK, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit - but it's all for the sake of making my point. 2007 was the most spectacular year in terms of celebrity pregnancies ever, and it's not over yet. I mean yes, I know there are barely three days to go before we say hello to 2008, but a lot can happen in three days - and here's some food for thought for you right now.
Apparently, the people at the National Enquirer want us to believe that Jennifer Aniston is pregnant too. I definitely wouldn't be surprised if that were true - as I was trying to prove with my metaphor about the 80 year-old pregnant granny - but the funny part is that the assumed daddy is not Vince Vaughn, as I was expecting to hear, but Jason Lewis. Yes, I admit I had to look him up on the Internet too, since the only thing I knew about him was that he starred in Sex and the City - but that was about it. Well, in fact there's not much more to be said about his career - but if it's true and he managed to get Jennifer pregnant, I'm sensing a major career revival coming up.
I mean, just think of all the irony in this rumor. First, remember that Jennifer not wanting kids was the main reason for which she and Brad Pitt divorced. I mean, the other main reason apart from Brad hooking up with Angelina while shooting "Mr. & Mrs. Smith". Second, remember how Jennifer was always the one said to be having a hard time finding a partner in the wake of Brad dumping her - well, if this is true, maybe she hasn't been having such a hard time after all. In any case, I do hope we see this piece of news confirmed soon. I don't think my nerves could stand another Jennifer Lopez "is she pregnant or not" guessing game for five months or so. And I'm not even joking about that one...
