Padma Lakshmi Is A Mommy

Top Chef's Padma Lakshmi gave birth to a baby girl in NYC on Saturday. The birth was sponsored by the makers of the GLAD family of products. Padma's rep had this to say to People about her client's new baby friend:

"Model, author and Emmy-nominated host of Top Chef Padma Lakshmi gave birth to a baby girl named Krishna Thea Lakshmi on Saturday. Mother and baby are well and happy."

You better believe that Padma has already made Krishna spit sign a confidentiality agreement forbidding her to reveal her daddy's name to the media. If you ask Padma who the father of her baby is, she'll douse you in tomato-kombu sauce and tell Tom Coliccho that dinner is served.

And I'm guessing that in an upcoming episode of Top Chef, one of the quickfires will be to make an amuse bouche out of Padma's placenta. Okay, okay, I'm packing my knives and I'm going....

I don't like her nose. It's uneven and too small for her face.

Also, Krishna? Really?

I don't know her "situation" so I can't judge her for being a single mom. She could be a complete leech, but I don't watch her shows and am not interested in looking at her face. I used to be against single parenthood by choice, but I think I've reformed my feelings on that throughout the years. Some people are good responsible people who have no luck in relationships and would make good parents. With some couples, two is not necessarily better than one... It just 'depends'. I think in most instances it's better to have both, but sometimes kids come out of single parenthood really well.

Didn't Padma Luncheonmeat star in Glitter as a stank ass singer who used Mimi's voice on her records? Stuck up bitch!

Are birth certificates a public record, where if you are willing to cough up the cash, you can at least get a copy?

Because if they are, wouldn't some pap go get it "to find out the mystery man."?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On my daughter's berthin paper, it only has my name. In CA, you don't have to put any other name. I don't know about NYC.

Krishna, honestly?? My daughter has the Hindi name Asha which means Hope and I keep hoping someone will name their baby that! Any takers!? LOL :)

Yup. They are public records, but one is not required to fill in the father portion. She may leave it blank. Lots of people do this including Rielle Hunter, the baby mama of John Edwards' youngest kid.

Good for her. How the heck would I even be able to know what her issues are, and why she decided to have her baby now and or on her own.

Clearly everybody has their issues, and this just happens to be hers. Doesnt mean you're any more emotionally healthy than her though. Dont even get me started on the fucked up couples out there who are destroying their children.

If you're a woman thats squeezed out all your bebehs by 30 and you're done, and all wifed up and mothered up, then be happy about that.
It doesnt sound like its all its cracked up to be though if you need to go online and put other peoples choices down.

I didnt get pregnant with my first bebeh until I was 37. But I'm glad I waited, because I could not have given that child what it needed if I had done it sooner. So be it.
Different strokes for different folks people.

To be fair, if she did struggle with infertility then having a baby at this age was probably not her first choice. Maybe she is being private because she used a donor.

I don't see the problem with a woman having a career first, I'd rather she wait to have a family than to have the family while in the middle of building her career and put the children on the back burner, in daycare for 12 hours a day.

Waiting until you can fully devote yourself to your children is admirable.

And while a baby belly is nothing to be ashamed of, shirts with milk engorged tits hanging out (no matter how big and awesome they might look) skeeve me out. I don't like seeing pregnant women in whorish club outfits, especially at baby showers.

Ain't no mystery who the baby-daddy is: It's a VERY married man who probably has a bunch of kids already, and a wife who will castrate him financially in divorce court.

Paquita: That's even sadder.

There ARE men who marry women with children. But the men who are willing to take on a woman and a child (who's not his) either have kids themselves or are probably not as handsome and rich as this woman is willing to date. Which means she would have to "settle", which is why she is a single mom to begin with. Interesting dynamic there.

And unfortunately, there are creepy bad men who prey on single moms to gain access to their children. No one wants to hear that, but how fucking many times have you heard about someone's stepfather being a lecherous creep? I can think of at least three girls I know who were molested by theirs.

Oh, and she keeps referring to finding a husband. Because it's so much EASIER to find a man when you're a 40 something single mom. Somehow your relationship skills improve after giving birth?
-------------------------------------------------

What a fucking joke! I believe everything you say about that woman you know. Cause I've seen them myself.

I also know the type that do not divorce even if the husband beats them down, cause in this day and age (she's only 28) where is she going to meet someone? so she goes and gets pregnant by the husbands that beats her up.... Smart woman are everywhere!! PPFFTT!!

I concur!! Every situation is different. But there are some women that just want a baby and do them by themselves and I just think is selfish to deny a baby a father if it's in your possibilities to do so and create a family, when maybe you did have a mom and a dad.

But then there's the other side when the dad wants nothing to do with the mom, or that he's an ass and the woman wants nothing to do with him. Too many sides.

AND SELFISHNESS PEOPLE!! That's why there are so many divorces now...UGH! Grow up!

daisydaisy: One woman I know (who is a definite narcissist) wanted a baby because she was tired of attending *other* people's baby showers and buying *their* babies cute little outfits. (You should have seen her registry.) She also doesn't want to be alone. Yes, she admitted this out loud, many times.

And she wanted to be the center of attention. Any woman who's had a baby can tell you that having a baby doesn't put YOU in the forefront. If anything, it's struggle not to disappear completely.

Oh, and she keeps referring to finding a husband. Because it's so much EASIER to find a man when you're a 40 something single mom. Somehow your relationship skills improve after giving birth?

Here's my rant on this particular fad (40-something women having babies on their own):

DISASTER.

NARCISSISM.

I always want to ask: If this was so important to you, why didn't you do it sooner?

And: If you can't maintain a stable long-term relationship with even one adult male, how are you qualified to raise a child? You can't break up with a child because it's too "needy" or because it called you fat. And you won't be able to leave it with its dad because, oh right!, there ISN'T ONE.

Stupid selfish bitches are no better than those dumb 16 year olds on that MTV show, because at least the teenagers have an adult supervising them and taking over when they get tired of taking care of their babies.

I have to stop now, because I am getting too worked up over here.
------
ITA. It also amazes me that there are women out there who are over 40 and unable to compromise, commit and ocassionally say, you know what, you are right.
Baby is not gonna fix it and it's not gonna make them feel less lonely and whatever else they're looking for. If anything, it will make them realize that while their peers are doing "that baby thing" with a supporting partner, they are just bunch of losers who couldn't even get a man to sticj around for a baby. And I don't need anyone to tell me that babies don't need fathers..

Hey, Charlie M, the reason women wear their clothing form-fitting when they're pregnant is because it's a lot more flattering than wearing a muumuu. I wore lots of form-fitting stuff for all my pregnancies because it made me look pregnant as opposed to fat. And I was proud of my beautiful belly and wanted to show it off. It's not something dirty, to hide.
