Ethan Hawke reportedly knocked up his children’s former nanny. A source told In Touch the actor and girlfriend Ryan Shawhughes are expecting their first child together.

“They are over the moon,” a pal tells In Touch about the pregnancy.

Ethan and ex-wife Uma Thurman have two children together: nine year old Maya and  six year old Levon.

OT: do any of us actually find this dude attractive? His super-duper case of rat-face creeps me out.

Although Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have not yet addressed rumors that they are knocked up with twins, Us Weekly claimed a source close to the couple asserted they are indeed preggers.

A radiant Jolie had tongues wagging at the Screen Actors Guild Awards January 27 in Los Angeles.

One SAG attendee tells Us in its latest issue, on newsstands now, “It was so obvious she was pregnant. You could clearly see the bump’s outline.”

The source said Angie and Brad may sell the confirmation to a magazine, and give the money to charity.

Britney Spears’ reunion with mother Lynne this week didn’t go so well. Although Lynne reportedly traveled to Cali to attempt some sort of intervention with her daughter, Britney went on several bizarre shopping trips rather than rehab or a mental health clinic.

On Monday, Britney plunked down cash to buy a new car, but fought with Lynne at the dealership.

“Lynne and Britney were arguing in the car the whole time. They’re both upset and arguing, not having a good time at all,” an onlooker tells People.

After 15 minutes at the dealership, Britney drove a black Escalade off the lot. “After she came out, she pulled over to the side of the road to argue with her mom more,” adds the onlooker.

The drama continued on Tuesday (now known as “Topless Tuesday”) when a slightly-obscenely dressed Britney hit up a J. Crew with Sam Lutfi for some attention and gum-chewing. According to an onlooker, Britney was “totally out of it” during the trip to the mall.

“She was talking in a slight accent. It was a little of a British accent,” says the eyewitness. “She kept to herself, quiet, she just wanted to go. She really wanted some Bubblelicious gum and she kept asking Sam for it and got frustrated when he didn’t have any. Her mood lifted when she found some in her bag.”

The thumbnails below are kind of NSFW, so make sure you don’t have any hot liquids around when you click, because you might knock them over or something.

Ready for some mundane details from Miley Cryus’ fascinating life? Great, me too! Miley officially changed her name this week from Destiny Hope Cyrus to Miley Ray Cyrus.

Although Miley was just a childhood nickname, the Hannah Montana star decided to adopt it as her real name, along with the middle name “Ray,” as a shout out to her dad, Billy Ray Cyrus.

This is slightly OT, but I remember sitting in 10th grade biology class and hearing the most fascinating conversation about the name “Destiny.” It went like this:

Teenage girl #1: “I think I’m pregnant.”

Teenage girl #2: “Oh, really? What are you going to name it?”

Teenage girl #1: “Justice if it’s a boy, Destiny if it’s a girl.”

Teenage girl #2: “Don’t do that: if you name a girl ‘Destiny,’ she’ll turn out fat.”

Teenage girl #1: “Oh yeah, I forgot about that.”

I never understood the logic of that conversation, and the two girls in question wore what I perceived at the time to be “Wal-Mart shoes,” so I couldn’t be seen speaking to them in public, thus I didn’t  turn around and ask where their fat girl logic originated. Still, Destiny-as-a-fat-girl has stuck with me after all these years.

According to Us Weekly, Michelle Williams attempted to coax Heath Ledger into rehab in 2006, but he refused to get out of the car. Michelle was reportedly disturbed by Heath’s constant use of alcohol and drugs, which included cocaine, heroin and “a variety of pills,” said a source close to the couple.

In March 2006, just weeks after the couple walked the Oscars red carpet and when daughter Matilda was only five months old, Williams drove Ledger to Promises Treatment Center in Malibu, California, the confidant tells Us Weekly.

Ledger refused to check in, instead swaying her with a pledge to clean up.

Even after the couple realized “they were in way over their heads,” according to a source, and split in September 2007, two sources tell Us that Williams demanded Ledger be drug-tested before his visitations with Matilda.

Despite the end of their relationship, Michelle was inconsolable after hearing news of Heath’s death last week. “She cried and screamed as soon as she heard,” said a source on the set of her latest film, “Mammoth.”
