All the Jewish celebrity parent gossip you ( n)ever wanted to know.
- Huge props to Drew Barrymore for not “fakebooking” her way through an In Touch Weekly interview in which she stated that while she was pregnant, she grew a “wonderful little goatee–and it was red!” She also said, “I’d rather kill myself than get into a bikini right now!” which, you know, not funny, but at least she’s being honest. (Yahoo)
- Movie mogul Harvey Weinstein and his wife, designer Georgina Chapman, just welcomed a son last Thursday. The newborn joins sister India Pearl and half-sisters Emma, Lily, and Ruth. No word yet on a name, but we’re sure this little guy will have a bris fit for Hollywood. (People)
- Bethenny Frankel was spotted carrying 2-year-old Bryn to the Fox studios for her appearance on Good Day New York. During her interview, Frankel said, “Divorce is the most difficult thing you could ever go through in your entire life.” I can only imagine making TV appearances to talk about it doesn’t help. (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- Every time I see a new photo of Rachel Zoe’s son Skyler, I wonder if she’s secretly way more observant than we all think and waiting for his 3rd birthday for a traditional upsherin (first haircut). (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- This week we are fortunate enough to be able to compare Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick’s twin girls against themselves: do we like them in identical outfits or mismatched? Dresses or leggings? Coats or no coats? Pony tails or pig tails?! (Babble)

- Shoe design mogul Steve Madden and his wife welcomed their third baby on Friday, Goldie Ryan. Insert joke about really stylish baby shoes here. (People)
- For Tori Spelling’s son Liam’s 6th birthday party, the family threw ”a small, family-only, early all-DIY birthday party to celebrate Liam’s 6th birthday.” Meanwhile, the rest of us try to imagine what a non-DIY birthday party is like. (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- Another week, another photo shoot of Sarah Jessica Parker taking her twin daughters Tabitha and Loretta to school. I wonder if SJP makes fun of her nanny’s Uggs behind her back. (Babble)
- Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler are teaming up again to star in a new romantic comedy about, “A man and a woman who, after a disastrous first date, get trapped at a family resort with their kids from previous marriages in tow.” And of course, just like in life, “An attraction begins to grow despite comedic mishaps.” (Just Jared)

All the Jewish celebrity parent gossip you (n)ever wanted to know.
– Drew Barrymore went on “The View” last week and told everyone that her daughter Olive, 4 months, will be raised traditionally Jewish. She also talked about how much she loves Jewish families, which was nice. (Celebritybabyscoop)
- Jason Hoppy, Bethenny Frankel, and daughter Brynn, 2, were out and about under an umbrella recently. Hoppy dropped Brynn off at day care, and Frankel picked her up. Glad to see a couple in the process of getting a divorce work together. (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- Sarah Jessica Parker went walking with Loretta and Tabitha this week, and the twins were wearing alien headbands. Very cute. (US Weekly)
- This just in: Jewish mother Barbra Streisand will be performing at the Oscars this year, for the first time in 36 years. Did you know she was married to Elliot Gould and they had a kid together? Jason Gould, 46. She’s now married to James Brolin. Way to go, Babs! (Oscars.org)

All the Jewish celebrity parent gossip you (n)ever wanted to know.
- The Golden Globes were this week, and we feel comfortable mentioning that because they were chock full of celebrity Jewish parents and children, like Lena Dunham (has a Jewish mom), Daniel Day-Lewis (has a Jewish mom), Kate Hudson (has/is a Jewish mom), and Isla Fisher and Sasha Baron Cohen (both Jewish). And, of course, Mayim Bialik. (Everywhere, but there’s a good slideshow on NY Times)
- Sarah Jessica Parker was out and about with Loretta and Tabitha, both looking very cute. But the best part about this post is the commenter whose username is TabithaFan21. Tabitha has fans but Loretta doesn’t?? #Lorettaforever (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- Drew Barrymore bravely flew with her 3-month-old daughter, Olive. Do you think people are nasty to celebrities who bring their kids on planes, or does that just happen to us regular folk? (US Weekly)
- Rachel Zoe and Skyler were spotted wearing matching stripes on Monday. I think Skyler looks better than Rachel here, and I’m not sure how I feel about that. (Daily Mail)

- Rachel Zoe and 1-year-old Skyler were seen hanging out on the beach in Miami. Skyler was of course dressed for the beach, but Rachel was looking uncharacteristically modest in a long sleeved long black dress. (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- Drew Barrymore says her dogs are really protective of 3-month-old Olive, and one of them likes to lick Olive’s head. As a dog lover I find this adorable, but I recognize to non-dog people it seems crazy. (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- Jerry Seinfeld claims his kids aren’t spoiled, and says his daughter Sascha, 12, upon being gifted an iPhone 5, said it was a “mean-girl phone” and asked for something less expensive. (US Weekly)
- In sadder news, reality TV star Bethenny Frankel has announced she’s splitting with husband Jason Hoppy after three years of marriage. In her statement released on Sunday, Frankel writes that their daughter Bryn, 2 1/2, “is and will always remain our first priority.” (People)

- Married-to-a-Jew Busy Philipps tweeted this week about making latkes for her 4-year-old daughter Birdie, saying, “Like the good shiksa mom I am, making latkes for my kid’s school Chanukah party.” And she also recently revealed she’s preggo with #2! (Twitter)
- Drew Barrymore finally opened up and gave an interview about her new life as a mom to 9-week-old Olive. She sounds pretty blissfully happy. (People)
- Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Saragaard’s daughter Ramona, 6, was escorted to school by her dad. Love Ramona’s skirt in this pic, but have serious concerns about Peter’s weird early 90s shirt. (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- Bethenny Frankel and daughter Bryn, 2, took their dog Cookie for a walk in Tribeca. I would mock Bethenny’s Hello Kitty pajama pants, but frankly, I’ve walked my dog in much worse. (Celebrity Baby Scoop).

- Tori Spelling, her husband Dean, and their five kiddos, Jack, Liam, Stella, Hattie, and Finn, spent Thanksgiving at a hotel on the beach. Looks like they had fun, but it seems kind of sad to spend Thanksgiving in a sterile hotel (even if it is on the beach). (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- Bethenny Frankel went for a swim with daughter Bryn, and shared a story about how Bryn serenaded the people on a recent plane trip with the ABCs. When she finished they all clapped and cheered. Awww. (Also: people being nice to kids on an airplane? This sounds made up.) (Celebrity Baby Scoop)
- New mom Drew Barrymore and her Jewish husband Will Kopelman brought newborn Olive out for her first doctor’s appointment. Adorbs. (US Weekly)
- Pink and her one-year-old daughter Willow were out on a playground this week. I am most jealous of how not cold it looks in these pictures. (Celebrity Baby Scoop)

All the Jewish celebrity gossip you (n)ever wanted to know.
- Let’s start with the horribly depressing news of the week: Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman are splitting after 30 years of marriage. I’ll never be able to watch Cheers again, and that’s saying a lot because I love that darn show. (Huffington Post)
- And now onto the mazel tovs: Anne Hathaway married her nice Jewish boy Adam Shulman in what looks to have been a traditional Jewish wedding. And you know how we know it was kosher? She used Natalie Portman’s wedding planner. (People)
- Tori Spelling revealed her baby #4 on the cover of the lastest Us Weekly. Finn joins the ranks of other recent celebrity miracle babies due to complications during Spelling’s pregnancy. (Digital Spy)
- She may have never officially announced her pregnancy, but the proof is in the pudding: Drew Barrymore gave birth to her first child, Olive Barrymore Kopelman. We’re wishing the newlyweds all the best with their little bundle of joy. (E!)

- Jewish rocker Ben Harper filed for divorce from Laura Dern nearly two years ago, and now, to make it definitely positively true, Dern has filed her own divorce papers. Dern is seeking primary custody of their two kids, Ellery, 10, and Jaya, 7. (Hollywood Reporter)

Some celeb women recently shared their favorite reads, including Elizabeth Banks who recommends The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay by Michael Chabon and The Road by Cormac McCarthy. Gwyneth Paltrow recommends Joan Didion’s The Year of Magical Thinking. (LilSugar)
