Jude Law Is a Father of Four

It's official! Jude Law is now the father of four, after his previously unnamed baby mamma, aspiring model Samantha Burke, told E! News that a paternity test confirmed Law as the father of her daughter Sophia, born Sept. 22.

"Since the birth of her daughter, Sophia, there have been a number of reports in the media questioning paternity," the 24-year-old's rep, Eileen Koch, said in a statement to E! News. "In response to those questions, Samantha can firm that DNA testing has conclusively established that Jude Law is Sophia's father. Samantha and Sophia are doing well and appreciate all of the well wishes they have received."

In July, Law, a divorced father of three at the time, essentially fessed up to responsiblity for his fourth child, without naming names.

"Jude Law can confirm that, following a relationship last year, he has been advised that he is to be the father of a child due in the fall of this year," according to a statement released by the actor's rep. "Mr. Law is no longer in a relationship with the individual concerned but he intends to be a fully supportive part of the child's life. This is an entirely private matter and no other statements will be made."

It looks like Samantha wants more than her 15 minutes, and won't let you off that easy, Daddy-o. ...

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!
