Minnie May be Crazy

November 17th, 2008 | Comments Off | Posted in Ellen DeGeneres, Minnie Driver

Minnie Driver gave birth to her son Henry about two seconds ago and she has said that she already wants to have another one! I love Minnie but really, is she on something? Henry is a mere two months old and she told Ellen DeGeneres when she appeared on the talk show host’s show on Friday that not only does she want another one but that the memory of labor has already started to wear off! Among this news that she is ready for another baby, Driver also joked with DeGeneres about the massive size of her child and Ellen, as always, had funny gifts to go along with it. From People,

“I’d have another one,” the actress told Ellen DeGeneres on her show that is set to air Friday.

Driver gave birth to a son, Henry, in September. “It only kicks in after you have really forgotten [labor]. I’ve only just managed to look at the pictures of the birth,” Driver said. “I only looked at a few pictures and they do make you kind of go, ‘Owwww! Ouch!’, but then I look at him. I want another one of them.”

But Henry, who weighed in at 9 lbs., 12 oz. when he was born, was too big for his Halloween Pumpkin costume. “On the back there was just this huge triangle where his diaper showed because we couldn’t close it,” Driver explained.

DeGeneres gave Driver a couple of different-sized onesies that acknowledged Henry’s heft. Both items said: “I may be BIG but my Mom is Minnie.”

Driver still has not released the name of her baby daddy so it seems that we might never know, unless Daddy is shown toting Henry about town as he gets a little bigger (or hopefully, just older from the sounds of it!) Speaking from experience, I think we can expect to see Minnie soon losing her mind if she goes through with another pregnancy so quickly after the birth of her first child. Not that it’s not fun, but there’s definitely no hope of keeping your sanity when you have two very small children under the age of 2.

Minnie has her Mini!!

Well not exactly a mini-Minnie I suppose, since she now has a son but Minnie Driver has in fact given birth. Everyone is healthy and happy and Minnie is still close-lipped on who the Baby Daddy is. From the Associated Press,

Minnie Driver has given birth to a not-so-little one. Henry Story Driver was born in Los Angeles on Friday and weighed in at a hearty 9 lbs., 12 oz, her publicist Jessica Kolstad told People magazine.

Driver, 38, confirmed that she was pregnant during an appearance on “The Tonight Show” in March, when host Jay Leno remarked on her baby bump.

She has not revealed the name of the father.”

As happy as I am for her, I’m sort of sad to see this pregnancy come to an end. I loved following it and watching Minnie as she grew and glowed. I can’t wait to see pics of the new little guy but judging from the privacy that Minnie protected so dearly during the pregnancy, I think that may take some time as well.

Minnie Driver Makes an Appearance

So just because Minnie Driver has been so secretive and elusive since announcing her pregnancy several months ago, I thought I’d show some pics of a very-pregnant Minnie. And she’s just so fabulous bump or no bump that it’s nice to catch a glimpse! Although she still refuses to give up who the father is, she does want him to play the important role of Dad. From My Park Magazine,

“Minnie Driver says the father of her unborn baby will play a big part in their child’s upbringing.

The ‘Good Will Hunting’ actress - who has so far refused to reveal the identity of the child’s dad - insists the mystery man will be involved in all the important parental decisions.

She said: “I’m just unorthodox. I’m taking full responsibility for being a mother but he will still play some part. I’m not married and I’m not getting married to this person. So I don’t know what’s going to happen. I sort of just take it moment by moment. Everyone’s grown up, everyone is cool. You just want to create as happy and loving an environment as you can.”

Minnie - who is due to give birth in August - recently joked she was having a baby with the Easter Bunny.

She quipped: “The Easter Bunny’s the father. I’ve never had sex!”

I can’t wait until she has that baby but I don’t count on seeing pictures any time within the first year at least. As much as I would love to see more pictures, it’s nice to see a star that’s not making a point of visiting all the high-traffic paparazzi places just to get her photo taken.

Minnie Driver Speaks About Baby Daddy

May 8th, 2008 | Comments Off | Posted in Minnie Driver

1minnie.jpgMinnie Driver has started dropping clues as to who her baby’s daddy is. Rumors started flying when she officially announced two months back that she was pregnant and all rumors were centered around one thing, “Who is this kid’s father?” A lot of people were coming to the conclusion that it was Craig Zolezzi, a musician in San Francisco but Minnie has quickly dispelled those myths. From People,

“Craig’s not the dad!” the 6-months-pregnant star told the U.K.’s Independent Thursday. “He’s my great friend and he’s been so cool about it.”

So who is it? The British-born Riches star – who is in the U.K. promoting her second album, Seastories – will only say that he’s English and “sort of in the same business.” (She also revealed that they have no plans to marry in the “near future.”)

The former Good Will Hunting Star (who previously credited the Easter Bunny for her ever-growing bump) also said she’s decided to keep the mystery going as long as possible.

“I want to shield the baby’s dad as much as I can because it wasn’t his choice to get roped into all this stuff,” she told the paper – adding that her first pregnancy was “unplanned” but “very happily received.”

“It’ll come out in time,” said Driver, who has a craving for a cheese sandwich every day at precisely 11:30 a.m. “There’ll be some other bump people will be interested in and I’ll have this baby and get on with my life.”

I have a feeling that this one is not going to die down anytime soon but I do think it’s super-cute how she gets a specific craving at a specific time every day. I love Minnie, whether she wants to talk about the dad or not!
