Not only did singer Christina Milian get a new husband this month, but she is also going to be getting another new addition to her family as well. US magazine has confirmed that the singer is pregnant with her first child. She and rapper The Dream just married on September 4 and now they are expecting their first child together next year. The couple got engaged two years ago and was already planning on getting married when they found out that Christina was pregnant. A source told US, "The pregnancy was a surprise, but they were getting married regardless." The couple both have said in interviews that they would love to have children someday.

In other celebrity baby news, Grey's Anatomy actress Katherine Heigl and her husband singer Josh Kelley are adopting a 10-month-old girl from Korea who they have named Naleigh. The actress who wed in December 2007 told USA Today, "I'm done with the whole idea of having my own children. It doesn't seem like any fun. I don't think it's necessary to go through all of that." Heigl also revealed what the name of her daughter means on The Ellen DeGeneres show saying, "I am naming her after my mother and sister Nancy, Leigh," she said. "So we call her Naleigh." Heigl will be taking a 5 episode break from Grey's Anatomy to film her movie Life As We Know It.

One celebrity that doesn't have any baby news is Penelope Cruz. There have been rumors circulating around for the past few months that the actress was expecting a child with her boyfriend Javier Bardem. The actress has now confirmed at the Toronto Film Festival that she is not pregnant. She told USA Today, "I start getting some presents from friends saying, 'Congratulations, you're pregnant.' And I say, 'No, I'm not, so return the presents. It's amazing." The star was also seen smoking cigarettes with her friend and actress Salma Hayek, which hopefully is another clue that she is not pregnant. It appears that anytime a celebrity gains 2 pounds or wears an unflattering dress she automatically is pregnant!

Salma Hayek has officially tied the knot (for the second time) with French billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault, and the beautiful wedding took place in Venice, Italy on April 25, 2009. The couple exchanged vows at La Fenice, one of Venice's historic opera houses. Valentina, the couples' 19-month-old-daughter, played her part as the flower girl, and Francois-Henri's son and daughter, ages 10 and 8, helped with the ceremonies. Over 150 guests attended this celebrity wedding, and the VIP guest list included the likes of Charlize Theron, France's former President Jacques Chirac, Penelope Cruz, Anna Wintour and Woody Harrelson.

The theme of this fabulous event was even more romantic with the 'The Carnival in Venice' masked ball; guests were asked to dress head to toe in black, and sport a gold mask as soon as they arrived at the gates. Salma Hayek arrived in a beautiful navy and blue gown and a pair of criss-cross strap stiletto sandals. The ball took place in an historic courtyard, a place that was once used as a trading spot and marketplace by merchants during the 15th century. It was a grand event that gave guests a chance to have fun and dance under the stars.

Interestingly enough, this was the couple's second wedding celebration of the year. The first wedding took place over Valentine's Day in Paris, but Wedding Number Two was designed just for Italy and brought together the couple's closest family and friends for a fun adventure through Venice's most notable sights. The rehearsal dinner took place at the Punta Della Dogana, a regal building that guards the south entry of the Grand Canal in Venice.

People Magazine reports that this wedding cost nearly $2 million; Salma Hayek wore a stunning Balenciaga wedding gown by Nicholas Ghesquiere, and she carried a bouquet of orchids and stephanotis covered with crystals.

The couple's guests were given a grand tour of Italy the day they arrived, and were spotted all over the city doing some last-minute shopping, enjoying some classic Italian food at local eateries, and soaking up the sun. It was an extravagant and joyful weekend that gave both the wedding guests and the happy couple a chance to enjoy the best of beautiful Venice.

After keeping quiet on his relationship with singer Ashanti for several years, rapper Nelly is finally talking. Nelly told People Magazine that the two have been together and that, "I think it's always serious, when you can hang with a person continuously ... and have fun." Nelly has been linked to Ashanti since 2003, but neither one has come out to the press or public and announced that they were together. They have been seen at award shows and events together but never talked about their relationship. Early this year, Ashanti only called Nelly "a good friend." It's quite refreshing to see two celebrities keep their relationship low key. They should get the privacy that they want.

On the other side of the music spectrum, country singer Alan Jackson was honored by his fellow country singers during a taping of Country Music Television's (CMT) Giants. Artist Brad Paisley, Martina McBride, Dierks Bentley, Taylor Swift and George Strait all honored the country legend at the Ryman's Auditorium in Nashville. Jackson, along with the other country artists, sang several of Jackson's popular songs and paid him tribute. The show will air on CMT in December, so if you are an Alan Jackson fan, be on the lookout for it.

It appears that Salma Hayek may be giving love a second chance with her ex-fiancée, Francois-Henri Pinault. The two were seen getting pretty cozy with each other at a soccer game in Rennes, France. Another attendee at the soccer game stated, "They were very together." The couple has a one-year-old daughter together and was engaged to be married before calling it off back in July of this year. It looks like the couple is trying their hand at reconciliation as they have also been spotted in L.A. and Paris together. Heck, I would give my relationship with a billionaire a second chance and probably a third or fourth also!
