Minnie Driver Deaf to Doctor on Baby's Sex
Originally posted 07/16/2008 09:05AM
Though Minnie Driver has expressed her wish not to know the gender of her child, a doctor revealed that very info during a recent medical exam.
Still, the expectant actress, 38, insisted to her TV host on Tuesday night's Jimmy Kimmel Live!, "I don't know whether he said 'he' or 'she.' " How come? She was simply too busy concentrating on the doctor's comments about her cervix.
The two friends who accompanied Driver to the examination did hear the doctor, however – and one pal is allegedly blackmailing Driver to buy him things so he won't spill the beans, she said.

Minnie Driver Wants Baby's Gender to Be a Surprise
Originally posted 07/11/2008 02:25PM
When Minnie Driver gives birth to her first child next month, she’ll find out for the first time whether she's having a boy or a girl.
"I'm old-fashioned," the actress, 38, said at the New York press junket for her new film Take, a drama opening July 18.
"Women for thousands of years have not found out," she says. "I couldn't base something that was so auspicious and beautiful of that moment, and take away the surprise for home décor."
Her family and friends, however, can't stop speculating.

Originally posted 05/13/2008 08:00AM
As the ladies of Sex and the City basked in the glitz and glamour of their world premiere, actress Minnie Driver was just around the corner, playing to a much smaller crowd.
The singer-songwriter – who's awaiting a world premiere of her own, the birth of her first child – took to the stage at the intimate Art's Theatre in London's Leicester Square to perform songs from her second album, Seastories.
Dressed in a one-shouldered black dress, the six-months-pregnant Riches star went on at 8:45 p.m., about 15 minutes behind schedule. "Sorry I'm late," she told the crowd. "I had to pee. I always have to pee at the moment."

First off, it's not the man, San Francisco musician Craig Zolezzi, who's been named in several press reports.
"Craig's not the dad!" the 6-months-pregnant star told the U.K.'s Independent Thursday. "He's my great friend and he's been so cool about it."

She may be months away from giving birth, but first time mom-to-be Minnie Driver is already bracing for those sleepless nights.
"I'm going to be a very tired mother, I'm sure!" Driver told PEOPLE at the season-two premiere of The Riches in West Hollywood Sunday.
"No, I'm going to be happy," she corrected. "I'm going to be a happy mother."
The 38-year-old has a busy couple of months coming up – she's releasing her album, Seastories in the U.K. and touring Europe, Hawaii and L.A.
But after that, Drivers says, she'll be logging plenty of pre-baby R 'n R. "I'm just going to have the summer to be fat and happy," she said.

Minnie Driver's Baby Name Dilemma
Originally posted 03/14/2008 12:30PM
Minnie Driver announced her pregnancy on The Tonight Show – and now she's chatting with Ellen DeGeneres about the biggest dilemma facing her right now: what to name her baby.
"I have a pretty silly name," the Riches star says on an episode of the Ellen DeGeneres Show scheduled to air Monday. "Driver is kind of a hard name to put with a first name, particularly boys names … My friend sent me an email saying I should call the baby Duncan Driver. Then I can call it Dunk Driver, Pile Driver, Rally Driver."
Joked DeGeneres: "So you’re hoping for a girl, you're
saying."
