baby names

Remember how uppity M.I.A. got when internet reports said she’d named her baby Ickitt?

She wrote on her blog “MY BABY IS NOT CALLED ICKITT, PICKIT OR LICKIT THANK YOU VERY MUCH TO ALL THE HOLLYWOOD PRESS… I WILL BE BACK WITH SOMETHING NEWS WORTHY SOON , TILL THEN GO PICK ON APPLE, SATCHEL AND MOON UNIT.

LOTS OF LOVE STICKIT!!”

Ickitt?

Ohhhh, the school yard taunts will be ENDLESS!

“Ickitt makes me sickitt. You know where you can stick it.”

“Ickitt is icky.”

Or maybe just a simple “You’re mommy hates you.”

The singer gave birth to her son with fiancé Benjamin Brewer on February 11th and he will be known as Ickitt Brewer.

Why do celebrities insist on saddling their children with trauma-inducing names?

Gwynnie Paltrow’s Apple, Jason Lee’s Pilot Inspektor, Ashlee Simpson’s Bronx Mowgli, Nick Cage’s Kal-El, David Duchovny’s Kyd (that is so wrong), and Jermaine Jackson’s Jermajesty…

Celebrities love to eff their kids up from the start by bestowing them with legendarily bizarre names.

But not Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber.

They have named their newborn son Samuel Kai Schreiber.

Adorable!

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!
