Humbled diva Jennifer Lopez and her reanimated spouse Marc Anthony are finally parents (pictured at left: the babies' conception)! Well, J. Lo is finally a parent. Marc has like 5 other kids or something. But they're all old and worn-out and dumb, so who cares. Quoth the People:
It's double the baby joy for Jennifer Lopez and husband Marc Anthony: They're the proud new parents of twins, a boy and a girl, Lopez's manager tells PEOPLE exclusively.
The babies were born early Friday in Long Island, N.Y. The girl was born at 12:12 a.m. and weighed 5 lbs. 7 oz., and the boy followed at 12:23 a.m., weighing 6 lbs.
"Jennifer and Marc are delighted, thrilled and over the moon," Lopez's manager Simon Fields tells PEOPLE exclusively.
What is with the cloyingly precious trend of celebrities announcing pregnancies or births by stating they're "over the moon"? It's usually coupled with the equally vomity "BABY JOY!!!" via the tabloids. Listen, people, if you're going to steal a cutesy preggo term from the British media, at least let it be "she fell pregnant". That one is acceptable because it sounds like someone succumbing to a wasting disease of late eighteenth century London. "Alas, poor Edgar. He finally perished after suffering from the dropsy, consumption, and the grippe. So sad! And mere months after his wife fell pregnant and contracted milk leg and the quinsy. Tut tut!"
