Former NFL player and ESPN analyst Tim Hasselbeck, and wife, co-host of The View Elisabeth Hasselback welcomed a baby boy into the world in New York Sunday afternoon.

Isaiah Timothy Hasselbeck weighed in at 7 pounds, 7 ounces. The couple have two other children, Grace Elisabeth, 4, and Taylor Thomas, 20 months old.

Tim Hasselbeck said in a brief interview that “Elisabeth and Isaiah are doing great and we’re excited about the addition of another baby boy into our family.”

Elisabeth’s pregnancy was announced on The View in January, when she told her fellow co-hosts that the pregnancy was unexpected. “We were thoroughly happy with the surprise of it. I didn’t even know for two months — I was walking around — I thought I had — I kept saying, ‘Electionitis, electionitis.”

Is Criss Angel dead? That’s the question flying out of the rumor mill right now, with Criss Angel dead trending on the search engines and on Twitter. But at least once a week we hear things like this and they are without merit.

We tried to confirm the meme when we saw it appear and there are no mentions of Criss Angel’s death anywhere in mainstream media, or even coming from the B-List sites. We even checked out Criss Angel’s Wikipedia page and they’re still showing him as alive and well.

We could understand how people may believe Criss Angel might be dead. For one, he’s a performer and entertainer who takes a lot of risks with his magic stunts and nearly every appearance he makes, he appears to be putting his life in danger. Secondly, Criss is also serial promoter and his popularity has been slipping as of late, so rumors of his death would certainly boost popularity.

But for now, we’re calling the Criss Angel death rumors as just that, rumors.

So what do you all think…

Is Criss Angel Dead or Not?

Paula Abdul may be joining So You Think You Can Dance as a judge after her very public decision to not return to American Idol this year over money.

So You Think You Can Dance producer Nigel Lythgoe told Variety that he met with the occasionally drunk on stage washed up singer and that he was keen to sign her up.

He said nobody else had Abdul’s “experience of being a dancer, of being a choreographer and of being a judge.” However Lythgoe didn’t say exactly what her role would be, meaning she may only appear as a guest judge or a choreographer.

The possible switch comes as speculation mounts that the whole thing could be a publicity stunt. A promo running for TMZ TV shows the sites editor confirming from a high ranking source that Abdul is definitely returning to Idol.

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra broke box office records in the United States Friday earning $22.3 million, the highest ever opening for an August non-sequel movie.

The weekend isn’t over yet, with history suggesting that G.I. Joe will go even higher Saturday and Sunday. According to Variety, other recent big August movies The Bourne Ultimatum and Rush Hour 2” typically clear the $20 million mark on their first day before posting a weekend take of at least $60 million. G.I. Joe is set to beat both them.

G.I. Joe has been panned by critics, although Roger Ebert did note that it was a better movie that Transformers 2, although that in itself was far from a compliment.
