Celebrity moms just don't foal like us peons. Consider the overwhelming cost of multiple in vitro treatmens (you think those anorexic fiddlestix bodies are easy to knock up?) or cost of a surrogate, plus the post birth multiple plastic surgeries to return mommy's body to adolescent perfection? Millions.

My ex-step-aunt Sharon Stone (she was married to my stepmom's bro) did this with US magazine, before it went all trashy-weekly. Big tasteless cover of her with long blonde extensions to simulate tousled new mom hair, cradling her new baby at the breast, despite him being adopted. Cool kid according to my stepmom, nannies doing a great job. My dad and I upon seeing this in the grocery store checkout line: "US, really? Cha-ching!" (Not the most liked member of the family, bitched out at my Dad's wedding)

I'm pretty sure they'll call her Harlot.

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> Don't babies pretty much all look alike anyway? I say take a picture of some generic drooler and call it whatever you want.

The world will actually spin off its axis if one of those cretins earns so much as a red cent in exchange for procreating.

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> @katieee: They'll call her Hurl, as in, what my name makes want to do.

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> @redphone2: I am so sick of Eva Longoria weighing on everything. And I'm ready for her crappy movie to die die die. And then the Mavs will win a champion-no wait, they just choked. Again. All my fave teams do.

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> I've grown tired of celebrities gushing about their famous friends' mothering skills: "She's going to be an amazing mom!" (Just one example: Eva Longoria about Jessica Alba today.) I wish someone would tell the truth for once. "She'll be pretty good, I guess." "The baby will be fine; it'll have the nannies." Or, "I don't know, she's kind of selfish."

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> Why do people care about seeing celebrities' babies? All babies look exactly the same to me.

TheOtherJen

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> They do realize that it's photos of Nicole Richie's baby they've paid $1 million for, and not Nicole Kidman's? A million dollars for pics of the baby of the star of "The Simple Life"?

Beware, Jezzies, the end of the world is nigh!

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> I love Jean Harlow, so that's cool. At least she has an awareness of the existence of her. And...lord, if Jamie-Lynn really does give up her baby, shit, she could sell that kid for a cool, what, billion? To a Japanese collector?

Michael Jahn

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> There is the distinct possibility -- and I say this as a long time subsciber to People -- that nobody reads the copy in any of these rags.

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> I'm just waiting for DismalScience to explain to me why these baby pictures are overvaluated. And to advise against buying.

"Huh?"
"Do you love me? See what I did for you? I did it for you!"
"Huh?"
"I didn't even throw up for months... well, but that was her fault. Do you love me? Will you leave me? I know I'm neurotic and I can be moody and a nag, but you won't leave me, right? The doctor says I have issues, but I... Brad?"
"She smells."
"We can get another."

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> I paid $10 for my baby but with the recession, it'd probably only go for like $8 now.

"See? Isn't our daughter precious and perfect, Brad? Aren't we just the luckiest, best and most perfect people in the world?"
"Um...are you sure it's mine? Oh, and I think she farted. Gross! Baby Farts!"

]]> <![CDATA[How Much Is Your Baby Worth?]]> In line with my earlier post, I'll start the bidding at 500k for pics of my aborted fetus.

And the second paragraph totally explains why Jessica Simpson and all these other "famous for being famous" people are in there all the damn time.
