Nicole Names Baby Sunday Rose Urban Kidman

Nicole Names Baby Sunday Rose Urban Kidman

As an update to the ’ story on Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s new baby girl, the couple has announced their daughter’s name - Sunday Rose Urban Kidman.

And according to Urban’s rep, things are so far so good for the Urban trio.  “Husband Keith was by Nicole’s side and mother and baby are very well.  They are delighted.”

This morning Keith wrote on his website, “Earlier this morning, Nic gave birth to our beautiful baby girl, Sunday Rose Kidman Urban. We want to thank everybody that has kept us in their thoughts and prayers. We feel blessed and grateful that we can share this joy with all of you today.”

In a recent interview, the “Others” actress said that her pregnancy was a special surprise.  “I didn’t think I’d get to experience that in my lifetime.  I like the unpredictable nature of it. To feel life growing with you is something very, very special, and I’m going to embrace that completely.”

And up to the day before she gave birth, Kidman stayed active, pictured below on her way to a yoga class on Sunday afternoon. 

The Mole: Episode 5

the mole
Nicole said something interesting tonight, right at the top of the show. “Why is that everyone I pick as the Mole gets executed and I don’t?” That’s a good question, because you would think that if Nicole is truly concentrating on one person every time she takes the quiz that she would have been eliminated by now. Maybe she’s The Mole! Of course, we can make that case for every single one of the remaining contestants at one point or another. Well, except for the one that was executed tonight, the player that a lot of viewers picked because this person was rather quiet and flew under the radar. Just goes to show you that you really can’t predict who’s going to get kicked off the show.

Something hit me tonight as I watched Paul do a nutty again on Clay and Mark over-react (overact?) about a challenge: one of these people is putting on a show. So maybe Paul’s intense jerk act is just that, an act, and he’s a helluva guy. Maybe Mark’s immature drama is an act and he’s really a cool person. Maybe Nicole’s arrogance and scheming is just an act and she’s really your average, nice girl. But think of this: only one person left on the show can be the Mole, so the other personalities we’re seeing are the real thing. Yikes.

In the two challenges tonight, I think a lot of the players were completely illogical. In the first, everyone is ticked at Mark because they think he took the exemption instead of the key. But why would they be so pissed at him? I mean, he was the last person left at the prison, so why wouldn’t he take the exemption? Hell, even Paul was tempted and he left a lot earlier (as it turns out, Mark didn’t take the exemption, though if he’s the Mole it’s a smart move). In the second, everyone is mad that Craig took the exemption after he got one by sheer luck, saying the word “exemption” first (of course, maybe it wasn’t luck, maybe he said it on purpose because he’s the Mole - then again, maybe the show made up the whole “first one to say exemption” thing, it really could have been any word they thought of after the fact). What, they wouldn’t have taken the exemption if given the chance?

And I’m so tired of these complaints about challenges (the “Travelers” challenge - too bad Traveler isn’t on anymore, we could have had a crossover episode). Everyone thinks it’s not worth it to be “humiliated” by wearing a llama costume or wearing stilts or riding a unicycle? Why the hell did the even sign up for this game? Mark really pushed this. You know what? I actually believe Craig when he says that even though he took the exemption he picked those things because he thought it would be fun. I think Craig is the guy I’d like to hang out with in real life, Mole or not.

I’m not sure what we’re supposed to think about another tie in the quiz. Only one second separates two players? The one executed tonight is Kristin, who seemed nice and was quiet (hey, turns out she probably really is!). All of the most controversial players - Mark, Paul, Nicole - are still around, along with the still-sick Craig (?), religious lawyer Clay (and no, Paul, those things aren’t contradictory), and musician Alex, who was the only one who really seemed to want to dress in a funny outfit tonight.

Next week: highlights from the season so far, but a new episode too.

Some observations/questions:

- Is there some significance with that damn lemon pet that Paul carries around? It will be fun to see the clues that the show laid out for us when the show is over.

- Some of the questions on the quiz are so specific that if you’re not the Mole and you concentrate on one person and they aren’t the Mole, you’re screwed. For example, a question tonight asked if the Mole used a sleeping bag in the prison challenge. Only one person had a sleeping bag and that was Clay.

- During his argument, Paul said “My whole life is a hypocrite.” Wow.

- The Mole is keeping a journal at over abc.com. I haven’t checked it for clues yet.

Nicole Richie: Another Dose of Traffic School

Nicole Richie: Another Dose of Traffic School

As part of the sentence for her DUI conviction, Nicole Richie was spotted out for her weekly traffic school stop in Van Nuys on Wednesday (June 18).

Accompanied by her regular driver, the former “Simple Life” star wore her hair in cute Heidi braids and toted a Starbucks coffee in hand as she entered the building for the day’s lessons.

Meanwhile, Nicole’s “Simple Life” co-star Paris Hilton recently shot down rumors that she and Ms Richie are planning a double wedding with their respective Madden brothers.

“I’ve heard that rumor,” Hilton said. “But no, I think we both want to have separate weddings.”

But the two will be spending a lot more time together, as Paris told Ryan Seacrest: “We’re all going on tour this summer, so I’m really excited about that.”
