Gwyneth Paltrow Gives Birth to Baby Girl

Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow has given birth to her first child, a baby girl named Apple Blythe Alison Martin.

The baby, weighing 9 pounds, 11 ounces, was born in a London hospital Friday after what Paltrow's husband, Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin, described as "a long labor." Mother and daughter were said to be doing fine.

"We are 900 miles over the moon, and we'd like to thank everyone at the hospital who have looked after us amazingly," Martin said in a statement released by spokesman Murray Chalmers.

Paltrow announced last December that she and Martin, 26, were expecting a baby.

The couple, who have been scrupulous about maintaining their privacy, were wed in December during a private ceremony in Santa Barbara.

The 31-year-old actress, who won an Oscar for "Shakespeare in Love," is the daughter of actress Blythe Danner and the late director Bruce Paltrow.

She hinted during an interview with W magazine earlier this year that she may do as her mother did and put her acting career on hold to raise her child.

"My mother turned down every fantastic movie there was," said Paltrow, who starred opposite her mother in last year's film "Sylvia." "She turned down these amazing things that would have made her a huge movie star."

nice to know the little girl will be just like her mother……………..

A B A M…….


they should have given the name a bit more thought…………

How did I know you would be the first to reply?

It was actually a toss-up between you or Markie with "I thought this post was about computers, but it figures that its just another wasted pop culture post by vansmack."

Apple Blythe sounds like an agricultural disease.

Prisoners at Abu Graib should be forced to watch SLIDING DOORS until they confess. Gwyneth Paltrow sucks!

i don't know chaz………………….what is with that? :D

I bet she's the 'apple' of her daddys eye! :D

Shame she wasn't knocked up by John Peel, the baby could've been "Apple Peel" :D

Do you think one of her grandmother's last name is Smith? :D

Fucking Retards, people have to go through life with these names their moronic parents give them.

I think of Apple-head siamese cats. A friend has one, and I just love calling him "applehead."

Dumbass name, a great computer, a martini, siamese cat breed. Great going, gwynnie…

The new baby was actually named after her great Auntie Apple.

Maybe she will grow up to be an underwear model for Fruit of the Loom?

Given the circumstances I suppose that is the absolute best she could hope for.

Godspeed, Apple.

Apple…maybe that's what they were smoking their weed in when they named the kid. I suppose Apple is even worse than hippy names like Willow or Autumn. Anyone for some baked apple?

And good gawd…imagine when that poor kid comes of age and boys are trying to get a slice of "apple pie"…I sense a comeback for Warrant!

I figured that as well…note to self: don't get drunk and name a baby his/her womb nickname.

I think this is a perfect time to reiterate that:

1. I hate Gwyneth Paltrow and every movie she was ever in. (except Seven because Brad Pitt and Kevin Spacey were in it, and her decapitation, though not shown, was an added bonus!)

2. Coldplay is just awful. Not only is thier music bland and boring, but i have to listen to Coldplay/Radiohead comparisons forever!!! If one more person says "How can you not like Coldplay if you like Radiohead?" Dude, but a couple CDs please and you tell me!

3. Right Right, two pretty, rich, famous people love each other. very nice. now STFU cause we dont really care.

4. I give Chris Martin about 3 years and he will become an alcoholic and she will leave him and take all his money and then he will hire Michael Douglas to kill her.

Ha. When my wife was pregnant w/ our first we were reading this book called "Your pregancy week by week" or some such thing…Anyway every week it would say "this week you baby is the size of a grain of rice" or "the size of a canteloupe" and one month it used apple as the comparison. Maybe they read this book too?

As for us? Well the wife as well as our daughter Raisinette and little baby boy Walnut are doing fine.

Actually, I have a GREAT recipe for baked apples…you put on walnuts, raisins, brown sugar, butter, and a few other things. They're quite good. I'm still floored at the stupidity of some people…but I am glad that people here share my sense of humor too.
