Like many expectant parents, Céline Dion consulted baby books looking for the perfect names for her twin boys, born Saturday.
“I’ve read nearly 15,000 names,” the singer, 42, tells French magazine Gala, “and nothing has stuck.”
In her first interview since delivering her sons, Dion explains that the problem may derive from excessive input on the issue.
“Because [elder son] René-Charles goes to school in the United States, he’s suggested English first names. My mother, on the other hand, has been hinting about very French first names and we’re going a little bit crazy trying to decide.”

Now mom to a brood of boys, the singer says she’s happy being queen bee.
“Honestly if I had a choice, certainly I’d have liked to have a girl,” Dion admits. “But the day I learned that I was expecting two boys, I wasn’t disappointed. It was a day of tremendous joy. I’m truly happy. Everything went well and the babies are in good health. That’s all that counts.”
Conceived through in vitro fertilization after multiple attempts, the twins are fraternal. “They were in two different sacs,” husband René Angelil explains. “During her pregnancy Céline had already remarked about their difference, saying, ‘One is more active than the other.’”
Having delivered the boys via c-section, Dion makes light of the surgery, laughing, “I’m telling you, if they could have come out through my ears at the time they were ready to come into the world, that would have suited me fine.”
She plans to return to Las Vegas in March as scheduled — though fans may see a bit more of Dion than they’re used to. Having added a little over 40 lbs. to her frame during pregnancy, the weight gain is the least of her concerns.
“I don’t care about my figure. I never have and I’m not worried,” says Dion. “In any case, I’m not going on any diet because I want to breastfeed … Besides I have a really good stylist and if it’s a question of going up a dress size or two — well, so be it.

Who doesn’t love dressing up? From fairy princesses and superheros to cuddly animals and cartoon characters, there are so many cool options. And as Kingston Rossdale and Milo Langdon (in N.Y.C. on Sept. 5) prove, you don’t have to wait until Halloween to don a cool costume.
But it is the perfect time of year to pull out the stops. We can’t get over how adorable Ella Rae Wahlberg looked in her ladybug outfit at Mr. Bones Pumpkin Patch on Oct. 23.

Mamma mia!
Five months after giving birth, Monica Bellucci officially introduces daughter Léonie on the cover of Italian Vanity Fair.
Saying she’s happy at 46, the actress describes herself as “feeling like a ripe pear.”
In an interview accompanying the Vincent Peters photographs, Bellucci — already mom to 6-year-old daughter Deva with husband Vincent Cassel — says that she “takes Léonie everywhere.”
“At home with Vincent, sometimes we’ll put both daughters in bed with us. When I travel alone, I put both them in the bed with me.”
Despite the demands of new motherhood, Bellucci’s schedule hasn’t slowed. She recently wrapped a Dolce & Gabbana advertising spot, as well as a feature film, Manuale d’Amore 3. The latter required a little patience on behalf of her costar, Robert DeNiro.
“I’ve been nursing Léonie during shooting,” she explains. “Every three hours, I need a half-hour break to breastfeed.”

It’s been talked about for months now, and finally Mariah Carey has come clean: She’s pregnant!
“Yes, we are pregnant. This is true,” Carey, 41, said on the Today show Thursday morning as part of a sneak peek at a three-part Access Hollywood interview.
“It’s been a long journey. It’s been tough because I’ve been trying to hold on to a shred of privacy.”
Husband Nick Cannon, 30, joined the interview to talk about the “absolutely emotional” news, adding, “The greatest gift on earth is a child.”

Carey, who also told of a miscarriage two years ago, would not reveal her due date. She would only say “it’s still early” and “expecting is great.”
Ever-supportive Cannon said of the loss, “It strengthened our relationship so much … she handled it so well.”
The news, of course, won’t surprise those who have followed the couple’s coy references to pregnancy and babies over the past few months. Rumors flew as the expanding singer seemed to bloom a little more every week, and both Cannon and Carey have spoken about their desire for children.
In August, Carey fanned the flames by stepping out in Brazil wearing a maternity dress. She quickly addressed the ensuing frenzy, explaining she is “superstitious” about pregnancy and promising, “When the time is right, everyone will know.”
Days later, Cannon gushed about his wife’s motherly instincts, telling PEOPLE that “she’s very nurturing.” But not until now have they admitted they’re soon to welcome their own bundle of joy.
Now that the news is out, people will clamor to know the sex of the child. The couple wouldn’t say yet, but thinks Carey will eventually cave — because she loves to decorate.
