Minnie Driver debuts baby on MySpace
Minnie Driver has introduced the world to her newborn son Henry via her MySpace page, posting a photo in the “pics” section.
Driver, 38, gave birth in early September in Los Angeles, and has been laying low since. Driver has refused to reveal the identity of her son’s father, but has denied it is San Francisco musician Craig Zolezzi.
The baby’s father is English and “sort of in the same business,” she told the U.K.’s Independent in May. She also revealed that they have no plans to wed in the “near future.”

Misty May-Treanor out of DWTS
Reality television brings Olympic champion to her knees: Misty May-Treanor is out of “Dancing with the Stars” after popping her Achilles tendon — yup, that’s one of the requirements for jumping, which Olympic volleyball players do a lot.
The information comes from DWTS’ Brooke Burke (that’s her, pictured left; Misty M-T, right), who said, “It’s such a sad situation. She did hurt her Achilles tendon. I don’t know if she tore it or ruptured it. She’s out of the competition. Just like that, it’s over for her … We’re all really concerned for her. She may be having surgery this week. We don’t know yet. It’s such a bummer.”
“She heard a pop,” Burke said of the Olympic gold medalist, 31, “so it’s really serious.”

Salma Hayek: Dirndl can’t hold her
Salma Hayek’s boobs stole the show on the German television show “Wetten Dass” over the weekend, where she was promoting her UNICEF campaign to fight tetanus.
Hayek was wearing — barely — a traditional dirndl made for a smaller St. Pauli girl, obviously. Nobody seemed to mind; it was all for a good cause. Also on the show was designer Karl Lagerfeld, who should have said something.
Here are some more photos. Work safe, depending on your work.

Angelina displays new baby tattoos
Angelina Jolie made her first post-twins red carpet appearance at the New York premiere of her film “Changeling” on Saturday night.
Accompanied by Brad Pitt, Jolie showed off the latest two additions to her body art, the tattoos of her new babies’ birth longitude and latitude. Born in July in Nice, Vivienne and Knox’s tattoo join the four she already had on her upper left arm, where she once had ex-husband Billy Bob Thorton’s name etched in above a dragon. The first four are Maddox’s (Cambodia), Zahara (Ethiopia), Shiloh (Namibia), and Pax (Vietnam).
Jolie said on the red carpet that “The babies are getting big and healthy and developing personalities… I run around with all the other kids, and I’m breastfeeding, which I think is a part of your body’s recovery,” Jolie said. “I feel great [and] feel very happy that they’re healthy.”
