The Pregnant Man is Pregnant Again

Barbara Walters’s is undoubtedly one of the more unflappable journalists. It takes a lot to knock the socks off of a woman who’s been flirted with by Fidel Castro and rubbed noses with the Dalai Lama but her interview with the infamous “pregnant man” Thomas Beatie “floored her.”

Why?

Beatie announced he’s pregnant again.

We’re shocked Elisabeth Hasselbeck’s puritanical, right–wing head didn’t explode.

On Thursday morning’s episode of The View, Walters said, “I looked at him and I said, ‘Are you pregnant again?” when filming her special What Is a Man, What Is a Woman? Journey of a Pregnant Man. “He said, ‘Yes.’ The baby will be born in June. I said, ‘I’m speechless.’ And they laughed and said, ‘We thought you would be.’”

Beatie is in his first trimester and tells Walters that he did not resume taking testosterone after his daughter Susan's birth so he could have another baby. Beatie’s wife, Nancy, is unable to have children because she had a hysterectomy.

The interview with Walters with the couple airs Friday night at 10pm on ABC.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
