How Ironic! Shields Beats Cruise to the Parent Punch
Brooke Shields has beaten Tom Cruise to birth. Brooke had a girl, Grier Hammond, just hours before Tom Cruise's fiancee, Katie Holmes, spawned her own baby girl, Suri.
Both sets of mothers and daughters are said to be doing well.
Last year Brooke and Tom, who co-starred together in the 1981 film 'Endless Love,' traded barbs in the media over Shields' use of psychiatric drugs while suffering from post-partum depression. Cruise, a staunch critic of psychiatry, believes the ailment can be treated through exercise and vitamins.
Shields' daughter weighed in at 7 pounds even, measuring 20 inches. Holmes' little bundle of joy weighed in at 7 pounds, 7 ounces and also measured 20 inches long.
Grier Hammond is the second child for Shields and hubby Chris Henchy. The couple's other daughter, Rowan, turns 3 next month.
Suri is the first child for Tom and Katie. Tom has two children: Isabella, 13, and Connor, 11.
UPDATE: 11:05PM ET -- TMZ cameras were outside Tom and Katie's home in Beverly Hills. We caught paparazzi milling around the grounds and cars going in and out. Word is the black Excursion in the video going into Tom's home is his. We spotted that same Excursion leaving the Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre shortly before that.

Archer on Silent Birth
Scientologist Anne Archer is setting the record straight about so-called "silent birth." Archer, who has been a Scientologist for nearly 30 years and had a child before and after joining the church, says her pregnancy "was much smoother" the second time.

Archer's complete interview airs on 'EXTRA' tonight.
Angelina's Baby Danger
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have jetted off with their two adopted children to Namibia as her due date nears. The couple reportedly plans to stay in Africa for the birth of their child to minimize the danger of out-of-control paparazzi. But Africa could pose an even more serious danger -- namely, malaria.
TMZ contacted Passport Health for their take on pregnant women traveling to Namibia and giving birth there. Carol DeRosa, the Executive Director and head nurse, said, "I would not recommend it. No one would."
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is on record discouraging pregnant women from traveling to areas where malaria is prevalent, adding that malaria is a "major risk." Malaria causes high fevers, shaking chills, and rigors that can cause premature birth, miscarriage, and stillbirth.

Tom had a co-pilot securely in tow during the ride.
The actor has been active to say the least in the last few weeks, jetting to Germany and motorcycling around town. His latest adventure raises the question -- is Tom taking too many chances given the impending birth?

It's 'Code Baby Alert' for TomKat
Celebrity magazine editors and the paparazzi are on call 24/7 this weekend, speculating on buzz that Katie Holmes will give birth in complete silence by following Scientology's strict birthing plan.
Since taking-up with the world's number one movie star, Katie, 27, has been a regular at the Celebrity Scientology Center in Los Angeles where she has been learning about the mysterious religion which Cruise, 43, claims guides his every life decision.
Scientologists believe that a woman must deliver her child without any anesthesia or noise during both her labor and birth. Furthermore, they believe that a newborn must not be separated from its mother immediately after birth, under the theory that separation could cause the baby enormous grief.
