When is Drew Barrymore due? It feels like she's been pregnant forever. At least a year and a half.
According to E!Online, Drew just had her baby shower and Cameron Diaz attended (they're besties). This brings up another question: why do celebrity moms get a baby shower for every baby? The rule about baby showers is that you get one for your firstborn and that's it. No baby shower for your second born. The reasoning behind the rule is that you're gifted the essentials at your first round baby shower and you're expected to reuse those essentials for all subsequent rounds. You just don't need multiple infant bathtubs. The most annoying part of this blatant rule breaking by Drew and other famous folks is that they're the last people who need to be gifted more baby stuff. They're loaded and can buy all the baby stuff they need and they're always getting free stuff from brands begging for high profile publicity. I'm not suggesting that second born kiddos don't deserve some new, special items of their own. If Drew's aunt Myrtle (she doesn't actually have an aunt Myrtle) wants to knit a new baby blanket that's totally cool. But a full-on baby shower? I object.

One last question, according to the same E!Online article, Gwyneth Paltrow was also in attendance at Drew's illegal baby shower. Here's the question: since when are Drew and Gwyneth friendly? Right? Is Gwyneth just mixing up her circle of friends because her current social life is being impacted by her conscious uncoupling? I'm far off topic.
Happy Tuesday. And if you happen to know when Drew is due, I'd love to know.

That picture of Drew is not from her baby shower, It's from a "safe kids" event she attended last week. There are no pictures from the shower (as of now) and I highly doubt it was sponsored by anyone. Drew herself said she plans on having her new baby use her first borns hand me downs, so maybe this shower was just a celebration of a new life.
And Drew and Gwyneth Paltrow have been friends since the 90s. Google their names together and you will find pictures of them together at various events over the years. Definitely nothing new.
Anonymous - My fact checking re: the photo was lacking. Thanks for the info - I've updated to the caption and I feel a little better about the world. I know some celebs have sponsored baby showers, so it's nice to know that there are exceptions to the rule. And, sponsors aside, there's always a good reason to celebrate new life - agreed.
