Pregnancy rumours: Lady Gaga, Obama's daughter and Jessica Biel
One's just a big lunch, one's a good hunch and the other one's a hoax...
If you're a celebrity, it seems you just can't eat a big bowl of pasta without being outed as pregnant. But there there are a few baby rumours at the moment that won't go away. So we thought we’d share the facts so you can decide...
Lady Gaga
The evidence for Lady Gaga's 'pregnancy' rests solely on this picture of the pop star wearing a very tight red sequined dress while leaving her hotel in New York. Gaga's tum looks a little rounded and at one point she even seems to lay a protective hand over it.
However, a representative of the 28-year-old told Gossip Cop that there's no truth in the rumours. In fact, photos of the singer showed her in a figure-hugging all-in-one earlier in the day, sporting a very flat tummy. We think she'd probably just had a big dinner before slipping on the red dress...
It's not the first time that rumours of a Gaga pregnancy have been floated. In 2012, Kelly Osbourne rather recklessly suggested on the Alan Carr show that the Lady was pregnant - due to the way she was covering up her stomach and the fact she'd stopped bleaching her hair.
Months earlier, the pop star had joked on a Spanish radio show that she was looking for an Italian sperm donor, to maintain her Italian heritage (her father's family is from Sicily).
And that was closely followed by her long-term partner Taylor Kinney apparently opening up to The Sun that he was looking forward to the couple having children.
Looks like Taylor's in for a longer wait...

Is Jessica Biel expecting her first baby?
We reported in October that rumours were circulating that Jessica Biel is expecting her first baby with Justin Timberlake. The actress was spotted shopping in LA, and a gust of wind flapped her shirt open to reveal *gasp* a hint of a belly.
We weren't sure if this was evidence enough at the time, but the rumours are still swirling and it's looking more likely they could be true.
"Right now they are just enjoying the news for themselves. They just want a happy baby," one insider told Us Weekly last month.
The false Malia Obama pregnancy rumour that took Twitter by storm
A fake story claiming that Barack Obama's teenage daughter Malia is pregnant has been circulating online. The story about the American President's daughter was originally posted on satirical website Empire News.
"In what promises to be the biggest White House scandal since intern fellatio, President Barack Obama's daughter, 16-year-old Malia, has confirmed that she is pregnant," the false story read. "Sources say Malia is now in her second trimester. Mother and First Lady, Michelle Obama, says that although she will be a grandmother much younger than she planned, teen pregnancy runs in the family."
Although there's no truth to the story, the false rumour had a lot of people fooled on Twitter.
