Jon and Kate, your days are numbered

Twins are becoming so common in Hollywood (congrats to Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell, btw - even though your baby names sound like racehorses) that if you have just one these days you kinda look like a slacker. Seriously, twins are such a non-story that at 5 p.m. yesterday the news of the Romijn/O’Connell babes was one of the featured headlines on Starmagazine.com and by 6:30 they had been knocked off by Patricia Arquette’s divorce, Jennifer Love Hewitt’s broken engagement, and Tim Allen’s first grandchild - oops, I mean new baby due in the spring.
I predict that by 2010 twins in Hollywood will no longer be that rare and the really hot Celebrity Moms will be having triplets, then eventually more and more at a time. Colleges and universities will start offering degrees in How to be a Hollywood Nanny and trendy boutiques will pop up on Rodeo Drive offering coordinating – yet unique - $250 baby outfits. Laws will be passed that give double and triple strollers right of way on LA sidewalks, GM will start building Escalades with fourth and fifth rows, and eventually, as all these children follow their parents into the business, every character in every movie and television show will have an evil twin.

Evil twin - ha!
Loved this post.
I agree, I feel positively lazy for having my children one at a time. I’m usually such a multi-tasker. Clearly I was slacking.

What is up with the twin explosion in Hollywood? Is it a result of fertility treatments or is it just a coincidence that everyone is having twins? I read that even Dr. Drew of Celebrity Rehab has triplets. Has anyone ever seen that show on DHC that featured the identical quadruplet girls? I love how they were natural and not a result of fertility drugs. It’s a refreshing change.

What identical quad girls? Are they the ones from Minnesota? Is one’s name Kendra? I can’t think of their last name. If these are the ones, those little girls are a scream! They were on Jay Leno a few years and they were like four little old ladies. Too funny!

Hi Patty,
I thought they lived in Georgia and you’re right, they are adorable!!! The parents are so loving towards one another and nothing like Jon and Kate Gosselin. It’s been awhile since they’ve aired their show. I think it was only on for one season, the family probably wanted their privacy back.

Also here is a link to their website:

Those four girls are precious. Thank you Luvs, for the link. I had never seen them before.

Luvs - I lied. I watched the other link and do remember them from Americas Funniest Videos. It seems as they grew up to be very happy little girls.

Wrong. This show will continue for years because Kate has morphed into a complete hottie. Women will watch to see the kids (and to hate Kate), men will watch “reluctantly” to satisfy their wives, but secretly enjoy the eye-candy that is Kate - sort of like what we do with women’s figure skating. Capturing both sides of the gender issue is the key here. And my oh my, she’s looking fantastic in those jeans.

Steve -
A little “frustrated” these days? Poor thing. Maybe your wife will be nicer to you if you allow her to degrade you in front of millions of people. Taking away a little of your “manhood” one day at a time. They say men are attracted to women similar to their own mothers, was your mother a control freak with striped hair?

Steve, if Kate is “eye candy” as you say, she must be something nasty like black licorice or Mary Janes. Ooh, maybe she’s just like those super-sour candies called Warheads!
Damn, she is a sour b–ch isn’t she?
