A Baby Girl for Jennifer Lopez?

Tuesday, February 07, 2006

Are J. Lo and Marc Anthony thinking pink?

That's the latest rumor anyway...According to The Scoop, they've been told that Jennifer Lopez recently went on a several thousand dollar shopping spree at a trendy baby store buying all sorts of goodies for a baby girl.

According to her spokeswoman, she's not pregnant. But, spokespeople aren't exactly known for their honesty: just look at how long the spokespeople for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have been denying that they were even romanatically involved.

Spokespeople are professional liars and spin doctors: that's what they get paid to do. It would be nice if we could trust spokespeople to tell the truth, but that's not the world we live in.

I don't understand why celebrities, such as Jennifer Lopez (potentially) or Angelina Jolie (for sure), feel the need to lie about such things. Pregnancy isn't one of those things you can hide for long no matter what you do, and shouldn't it be something you're proud of? Isn't the first rule of lying that you make sure it's about something you actually have a chance of keeping secret? It just seems like something incredibly stupid to lie about. Sometimes the world of celebrity just doesn't make sense...
