Kids

Kelly Rutherford, who plays Lily van der Woodsen, was in court this morning, asking an L.A. County Superior Court judge to green light her request to bring her two-year-old son Hermes to NYC to begin filming this coming Sunday.

Standing in her way -- estranged hubby Daniel Giersch -- who claims the kid is a basket case when he goes back to New York because Kelly gets crazy with her work schedule. Kelly says she's been taking the kid back and forth for a long time and it's no problemo.

And their next child shall be named Queens Baloo.

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz had their kid yesterday (well done, blah blah blah), but couldn't resist the temptation to give their new son a name that will make him either very cool or most likely deeply resentful for a long time. That is, Bronx Mowgli -– as in asphalt jungle and Jungle Book.

Part of the 50 Cent baby mama drama actually got resolved today -- the parties agreed on a custody arrangement.

Fitty wanted two weekends a month with Marquise, but the judge awarded him one. He did however get one month in the summer and half of the time Marquise is out of school for winter and spring breaks.

Billy Ray Cyrus, his 15-year-old moneymaker and her 20-year-old boyfriend/underwear model had a three-way date at a milkshake parlor in West Hollywood last night. So we ask....

Our sources say Brian's baby mama, actress Vanessa Marcil, took him to court over their custody arrangement. We're told Vanessa has been complaining lately about a lot of things, but the hour-and-a-half hearing was more about fine-tuning than re-doing the custody arrangement.

Take that, Internet conspiracy theorists!

Sarah Palin's 17-year-old daughter is pregnant, it was announced today, and she plans on keeping the child and marrying the baby daddy. Jamie Lynn Spears, is that you?

Palin has been dodging rumors the child she had back in April wasn't hers -- but rather her daughter's.

Turns out the lady who incubated Ricky Martin's babies is a serial surrogate -- but that doesn't mean she'll squirt 'em out for just anybody.

Sources tell TMZ the 26-year-old mother works for an agency that hooks up surrogates, and Ricky's bambinos are her third surrogate (and second set of twins) -- but she says her womb isn't open to Britney Spears or Michael Jackson. Wonder why ...

We're told before the birth, the two only met a couple of times, and contact with Mr. Loca was mostly through phone and email.

Ricky Martin and Clay Aiken have something in common...

We're told that Fiddy picked up his son Marquise yesterday from baby mama Shaniqua Tompkins -- and the drop-off went off "without a hitch"! The rapper and his boy haven't seen each other since before the house where Tompkins and Marquise were living burned down at the end of May.

50 Cent's baby mama thinks she has the "right" to stay in a house that he bought -- even though they split up years ago, and she's takin' his coin every month anyway.

Radar reports Shaniqua Tompkins wants to stay in her $2.4 million Dix Hills, Long Island mansion, and, in a new lawsuit, she's whining that the rapper is trying to kick her and their 10-year-old son to the curb. Tompkins already gets court-ordered child support every month from the rapper.

Not so. After Roberts obliged paps with plenty of shots across the street from her NYC house -- on the condition that they leave her alone, they did quite the opposite, following and shooting her the next day at her bank, and staying on her tail for three full blocks before a bystander stepped in to act as a bodyguard.
