Posted byBy Popular Critic | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Actress Halle Berry heads back to work on her new movie Cloud Atlas while Mad Men star January Jones welcomes her first child.

Her rep confirmed to US Magazine that Jones gave birth on Tuesday to baby Xander Dane Jones and “they are doing just fine”.

Jones, who was romantically linked to celebrities such as Josh Groban, Ashton Kutcher and more recently Jason Sudeikis, has remain steadfast in keeping the paternity of her new son a secret.

However, Jason Sudeikis, her ex, recently playfully hinted at the MTV movie awards, that he may be a new father soon.

“I might be a dad soon.   I have a lot of pressure on me, okay? I have 10 minutes left in the show, I might be a dad soon…”

According to Mad Men creator Mathew Weiner, although Jones is keeping the father’s identity under wraps; she wanted a baby “very badly”

Weiner gave further insight in a recent interview with US weekly by commenting;

“She’s got a big heart and she’s been talking about having children since I met her, which is not always common with actresses.   I think she’s going to be amazing.”

On the other side of the globe, actress Halle Berry tried to heat up on an otherwise chilly day in Scotland while filming her latest movie Cloud Atlas.

Berry was spotted doing her best to stay warm in a retro-styled outfit equipped with high-waist, flared denim and over sized, multicolored scarf.   Berry topped the outfit off with a wig that immediately made us miss her short crop hairstyle.

Although Glasgow is a far cry from the warm streets of LA, Halle seemed to be adjusting just fine as she received touch up powdering during breaks.

Hopefully this film has better luck than Dark Tides which is still awaiting a release date.

Congrats to Janaury Jones!

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
