Salma Hayek gave birth to a baby girl over the weekend. People magazine reports

Salma Hayek and her businessman fiancé, François Henri Pinault, are the parents of a baby girl, Valentina Paloma Pinault. “Mother and daughter are doing well,” Hayek’s publicist said in a statement. The daughter is the first child for Hayek. Pinault, 45, has two children from a previous marriage which ended in divorce in 2004.

Good for Salma. Since practically every actress in Hollywood is either pregnant or having babies, here are a couple of shots of pregnant Nicole Richie relaxing in Hawaii with perma-shirted Joel Madden. When they aren’t complaining about indigestion or farting or blowing up with preeclampsia, pregnant women can be pretty hot. The whole “fountain of life” bit. Plus huge boobs. I was almost an E cup by the end of my last trimester. Sure, I was two hundred pounds and didn’t “walk” so much as I “staggered around clutching my back and moaning,” but my rack was fucking awesome. If it weren’t for all the veins and the bright red stretch marks and the African bushman nipples, I would have looked just like a porn star.

Her new movie Bandidas may not be that great, but I would still nominate Salma Hayek for next year’s Golden Globes Awards.
