Hot Dog! Tori Has the Baby!
Despite her best efforts to make her newborn sick, Tori Spelling –- everybody now, sigh of relief –- gave birth without incident. Mazel tov!
Stella Doreen McDermott was born yesterday via C-section, and weighed six pounds, eight ounces, and no amount of listeria-laden soft-serve or hot dog could keep the baby from kicking healthily and happily. "I have my beautiful little boy and now I'll have my little girl," she told People.
Tori and hub-manservant Dean McDermott already have a one-year-old boy, Liam Aaron. Oh, and their reality show starts next week.

The prosecution returns today to hammer home their point about the mole.
