"Top 5 things you should NEVER say to a pregnant woman!"

Number Five: �Was it planned or a surprise?� Why: No matter what time of year (or of life) a pregnancy occurs, it is never appropriate to ask about people�s birth control (or lack thereof) details. Number Four: �Well, maybe you�ll have a girl next time.� Why: Just because you may have personally had your heart set on a specific gender, that doesn�t mean everyone else has the same preference. Even if others might secretly want a boy or a girl, there�s no need to ever assume that they�re bummed about it. Number Three: �Twins! Are they natural or did you take drugs?� Why: There are a lot of fertility drugs out there that have caused the multiples rate to soar. But not all fertility treatments result in twins, and not all twins are the result of a medical intervention. So, you can wonder, but please don�t ask. Number Two: �You�re so huge! I can�t believe you have two months left.� Why: Yes, she has a baby in there, but still � no one likes to be called huge. Ever. And the Number One Worst Line to Say: �I hope this one works out.� Why: Believe it or not, several moms claim to have gotten this reply when announcing a pregnancy after prior miscarriages. Even if your intentions are good, hold back from saying anything that implies misgivings about the good news. It�s just plain rude.

"Is this Michael Jacksons long lost daughter?"

The alleged MJ spawn -- Mocienne Petit Jackson -- has filed documents with L.A. County Superior Court claiming she will surely be in line for a serious inheritance check ... if a judge will give the go-ahead on a DNA test. Here's the story -- MPJ claims back in 1975, 17-year-old Michael Jackson secretly impregnated her mother Barbara ... who happens to be Diana Ross' sister. MPJ claims when she was 9 years old, Katherine Jackson hatched a plan to "abduct" MPJ and send her to Belgium to protect Michael's "reputation." She claims all 7 of her abductors were later murdered. Now MPJ -- who currently lives in the Netherlands -- has decided to come forward with her story ... so she can "formally claim my part of my father's inheritance." She also wants custody of MJ's kids so she can give them a "more normal life."

"DMX is heading back to jail...........AGAIN!!"

DMX is to be sent back to jail after a prior infraction was recently discovered by Los Angeles authorities. The rapper was just released from jail earlier this month. DMX plans to turn himself into authorities in a Los Angeles courtroom today, according to TMZ. The new arrest is a legacy violation from a 2002 reckless driving conviction. He received probation at the time, but his assorted legal issues warranted a violation. DMX is expected to serve 90 days in jail. He recently appeared on the �Stop The Party (Remix)" with Cam'ron, DMX, Ghostface, Swizz Beatz and Busta Rhymes. DMX's manager has insisted that the Yonkers, New York native is focused and ready to return to music. The rapper, born Earl Simmons, freed from the Maricopa County jail on July 7th after he served four months for violating the terms of his probation from a 2009 conviction for cruelty to animals, theft and drug charges. The news of his latest trip to jail comes on the heels of his wife Tashera�s announcement that she has separated from the rapper. Tashera Simmons is also planning a reality show titled Tashera Simmons�.Life After X, which will focus on her family life without DMX.
