Beyoncé is still falling in love just like she mentions in her colorful "Countdown" video. The beautiful mother-to-be may be accused of plagiarizing her dance routine in the new music video, but she claims her marriage to Jay-Z is 100% authentic. Beyoncé spoke to Bazaar about her relationship with the hip-hop mogul and revealed why they waited so long to start a family. She is due in February.

On Jay-Z:

"We have been together since I was 20 years old. We took our time and developed an unbreakable friendship before we got married. But, like anything great and successful in your life, marriage takes hard work and sacrifice. It has to be something both you and your husband deeply want."

She adds:

"The best thing about marriage is the amount of growth you have because you can no longer hide from your fears and insecurities. There's someone right there calling you out on your flaws and building you up when you need the support. If you are with the right person, it brings out the best version of you."

In regards to starting a family she reveals:

"It was important to me that I gave myself time to focus on becoming the woman I want to be, building my empire, my relationship, and my self-worth, before I became a mother."

We don't see anything wrong with that! Sounds like these two are going to last a lifetime. What do you think?

It looks like music mogul Tommy Mottola may have another chapter to write in his upcoming tell-all memoir. This week, his pop princess wife Thalia confirmed that she is pregnant with the couple’s second child!

It’s clear the mommy-to-be was overjoyed by the positive fan reaction to the news, particularly in the twitterverse. Since making her announcement, Thalia’s one million followers have been bombarding her with congratulatory tweets, some of which she retweeted.

“RT @Marcetha@thalia FELIZ FELIZ x TI MI REINA!!! @Thalia Y yo feliz de que esten felices con migo!!!!!Wow! Cuanta oleada de puro amor!!!”

Thalia’s newest little one, whose due date has yet to be revealed, will join the couple’s 3-year-old daughter Sabrina, as well as Mottola’s two grown children from a previous marriage. But an increasingly crowded house doesn’t seem to bother the Mexican songstress one bit.

When speaking with Latina last year, Thalia gushed about the thought of having more children. And now it looks like she got her wish. But at 61-years-old, could being a daddy for the fourth time be a burden on Tommy? Not so, says the New York Post. Their sources say he’s “delighted” about the upcoming bundle of joy.

It’s hard to believe that it’s been only a month since Penelope Cruz delivered her bundle of joy. Little Leo Encinas, as he is reportedly now being called, seems to be doing fine and by the looks of things so is his mom. Arriving at this weekend’s Academy Awards with hubby Javier Bardem, Penelope debuted an amazing post-baby bod.

The paparazzi were all over the glamorous couple Sunday night. Papa Javier wore a fitted black suit (which he changed to white to present with James Brolin) and Penelope radiated in her elegant purple gown. Although the Bardems didn’t walk away with any Oscars — Javier lost best actor to Colin Firth — they seemed extremely cheery throughout the evening.

When photographed in Santa Monica, Calif., earlier in the week, Penelope showed off her $30,000 3-carat sapphire engagement ring, which had been given to her by Javier.

Though the gossip blogs still haven’t gotten that elusive shot of little Leo yet, we’re sure it’s only a matter of time before he makes his media debut. Perhaps he'll make a cameo in Javier’s highly-anticipated gunslinger epic The Dark Tower.

Are you one of Jessica Alba’s one million Twitter followers? If so, you were one of the first to find out that the Machete star is pregnant with her second child — a baby girl.

“It's been a while since I've been on FB & I thought I'd drop by to let you all in on some exciting news > Honor is going to be a Big Sister!" Alba revealed on both Facebook and Twitter. "Cash and I are thrilled and wanted to share the news directly with you so you didn't hear about it somewhere else. I appreciated all of the love and support you all gave me during my first pregnancy and will definitely appreciate it again this time around. Have a great day! Jess.”

Nearly 1,000 fans left comments of love and support for Alba and her hubby, Cash Warren, on Facebook, and more than 4,000 members “Liked” Jessica’s new status.

“Thank you for the wonderful messages!" she tweeted Wednesday. "They really mean a lot to me.”

Jessica’s first child, Honor Marie, arrived in 2008 and became a hot commodity after her birth. OK! Magazine paid more than $1.5 million for the exclusive first pictures of the adorable baby girl. Now that Jessica’s even more famous, we imagine snaps of the new little lady will fetch an even heftier amount.

What do you think Jessica and Cash should name their second child? Sound off in the comments or @MTV3.

Mariah Carey seems to be full of surprises these days. First she confirmed that she and hubby Nick Cannon are expecting, and now we’re getting word that she’ll be delivering twins. The 40-something pop diva also confessed that she had a difficult time conceiving, so we’re sure this news is twice as nice for the parents-to-be.

And who was the first person she shared the happy news with? According to Cannon, it was President Barack Obama.

"She shared with the President and the First Lady that we are having twins," Nick told New York’s 92.3 Now radio station. "I haven't even told my wife I was doing this, so I am probably going to get yelled at for not getting permission."

Who knew the Cannons and the Obamas were so close? Could Mariah be thinking of assigning godfather duties to the commander-in-chief? Probably not, but we imagine Mr. Prez would have a lot of wisdom to share with the little ones once they get older.

Unfortunately, Nick wasn’t ready to reveal the babies' genders just yet. Perhaps a cute boy and girl set like J. Lo’s Max and Emme? It doesn't really matter, as long as they're healthy, Nick said.

"[The latest ultrasound revealed] everything is A-OK, both babies are healthy, in tip-top shape," Cannon said. "The doctors are extremely happy. We are extremely happy."

We're happy to hear the good news! The babies should be entering the world sometime this spring.

Cute picture or gratuitous excuse to show off your muscles? We’re thinking a little of both. Yes Mario Lopez’ daughter Gia Francesca is adorable, but do you really need to pose shirtless with her? Well if you’re in as good a shape as he is, we guess it makes sense.

OK! Magazine got the exclusive first shots of the newest Lopez and we think we can even spot a couple of trademark dimples underneath those chubby cheeks! Born back in September, Gia’s fast approaching two months and is the apple of both her parents’ eyes.

Obviously mama Courtney Mazza played a major role in Gia’s creation as well, but when the cameras turned on, all lenses were focused on Mario’s chest. Lifting her up, cuddling her on the bed, and flashing a smile from ear to ear, Lopez gushed about his new role as dad.

“I’m still in that shocked, euphoric stage,” Mario said. And when asked about being able to handle a little one around, he added, “I come from a big, loud Mexican Catholic family. My sister also has three kids, so I’m used to a bunch of babies [being] around.”

Hmmm…Could that mean Mario and Courtney might be in the planning stages for kid #2? All we’re saying is, don't be surprised if, in the next year or so, we see a new baby bouncing on Mario’s bare chest.

Official Update : Beyonce is not pregnant.  We just got new information regarding this update.  Sorry for the false alarm.

We know Beyonce and Jay-Z have always been low pro with their relationship, but this is one piece of news that no one could keep quiet about. Sources are reporting that Ms. Sasha Fierce is now pregnant with her first child!

According to Us Magazine, Beyonce was shocked and thrilled when she found out the news. And the timing actually works out pretty well. She recently wrapped up her I Am… Tour and had begun staying more close to home, working on tracks for a new studio album.

As for Jay-Z, he’s got a much-hyped memoir set to hit shelves called, “Decoded.” Perhaps he may need to add a new chapter on fatherhood now? One of his close friends, record exec Kevin Liles, told Us,

"Jay has been all about family since I met him, and he's always going to be. I wish them the best."

The magazine also got a quote from Beyonce’s sister Solange. Seeing how she’s already got a 6-year-old running around, we imagine she’d have some pretty good advice to pass down on motherhood,

“She's got the most beautiful heart. She'll be a great mom."

No word yet on the gender or the due date, but we can imagine this music power couple will be throwing one heck of a baby shower.

It looks like Gael Garcia Bernal and BFF Diego Luna are set to have even more things in common…Brand new babies filling up the household! We recently reported that Diego welcomed his second child back in July and now it looks likes Gael is prepping for another big arrival as well.

Per his heavily trafficked Twitter page, Garcia Bernal announced,

"Si! Hacemos oficial el anuncio: habemus bebé en camino. Felicidad tremenda y expansiva que compartimos con todos ustedes. Abrazos y pachanga”

This would make his total kid count at two (baby Lazaro was born back in January 2009). And how’s his gorgeous esposa, Dolores Fonzi feeling about it all? She re-Tweeted the happy news as well and can expect tons of congratulations posts from her 18,000 plus Followers.

And don't worry Garcia Bernal fans, the new arrival won't be slowing his career down one bit. Monsters and Critics is reporting that he and Luna will be jumping into a brand new Will Ferrell comedy this fall.

For the time being, we’ll keep the toasts and good blessings right on flowing. We can’t wait to hear all of the exciting details as they unravel (What's the due date? Is it a boy or a girl? Is Diego the godfather?). Felicidades!

Penelope Cruz’s publicist has finally confirmed what we’ve been speculating about for months. The new Mrs. Bardem is four-and-a-half months pregnant! Interestingly she and Javier wed back in July (two months ago), which means she was expecting when she walked down the aisle.

The couple did a good job of keeping their joyous news hush hush for as long as they could, but once the baby bump pix started popping up, it became too hard to conceal. And don’t worry Johnny Depp fans, it looks the pregnancy will not be interfering with the completion of "Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides".

Though it’s obvious the Bardim/Cruz family knew all along, Javier’s sister Monica did a pretty good job of keeping a tight lip. When recently speaking to Hola! Magazine, she said, “They have shown the world they are in love and it would be only normal and natural to have children."

Well we are very happy for the newlyweds and can only imagine how beautiful the baby will be with that genetic combination. Who knows, maybe in 20 years Javier Jr. could wind up dating Gia
Francesca Lopez?
