“I was feeling very vulnerable about taking pictures at all right now, but then I didn’t want to miss this opportunity to document this once-in-a-lifetime experience,” Mariah exclusively tells Life & Style. “My ultimate goal was to share this incredibly personal moment with my true fans.”

Last week, Mariah was in the hospital with contractions, but the babies weren’t ready to come out yet. Nick and Mariah couldn’t be happier and have been really enjoying the pregnancy experience. Mariah is not due for a few weeks, but those babies are very active.

“The babies were kicking almost the entire time; it was unbelievable,” Mariah tells Life & Style. “Especially the girl — clearly she’s a diva in training! We didn’t start shooting until 1:30 a.m. because I was in the hospital from the night before until the day of the shoot with contractions five minutes apart!”

Aw. Sweet. A little Mariah and a little Nick for the couple. It’s perfect. Nick Cannon even revealed that he is more attracted to his wife than ever now that she is huge and pregnant. Mariah is ready to become a mom, but the sacrifice requires a Mother’s Day every week.

“I thought I couldn’t love Mariah more,” he tells Life & Style. “But I have a whole new appreciation and admiration for her.”

Mariah adds, “Now I have so much respect for mothers everywhere, especially those who’ve had difficult pregnancies or given birth to multiples. We need to have Mother’s Day once a week!”

Congratulations to the parents-to-be!

Get ready to welcome the “Wrestler Wives”! VH1 and Pit Boss have teamed up to produce a new reality show that will follow the tough and busy lives of a new group of housewives. The “Real Housewives” and “Basketball Wives” are so 2010!

The “Wrestler Wives” have already been chosen and a pilot has already begun shooting in Houston, Texas. The leader will be Booker T’s wife Sharmell Sullivan-Huffman and the show will be centered around Booker T’s wrestling school located in Texas.

Sharmell will be joined by Jerry Lawler’s ex-wife, Stacy Carter, and Charlie Haas’ wife, Jackie Haas. This show could be a major hit, especially if there are a lot of catfights between the wives. We wonder if these women are just as dramatic as their wrestler husbands.

The beautiful Ashley Judd finally speaks out about her demons and exposes her darkest secrets, including depression, suicidal thoughts and a horrific history of sexual abuse, in a raw memoir titled “All That Is Bitter & Sweet”.

The 42 year-old actress claims she had a very unstable and unhappy childhood and blames her mom, country legend Naomi Judd, and sister, Wynonna Judd, who were too busy with their country music careers. Ashley attended 13 different schools between the ages of 5 to 18.

“My childhood was erratic, chaotic, unstable,” she told People. “I was so the lost child, who just goes away and can be invisible while sitting in the middle of the room.”

“I know that my mom did the best she could as did my dad,” Judd continues, “but for a variety of reasons, it was just hurtful.”

Ashley also revealed she was often left with caretakers who consumed drugs or molested her as a child. She claims there are still a lot of repressed memories of sexual assault just coming to the surface now.

Here are some excerpts of Ashley Judd’s “All That Is Bitter & Sweet”:

“My mother, while she was transforming herself into the country legend Naomi Judd, created an origin myth for the Judds that did not match my reality. I loved my mother, but at the same time I dreaded the mayhem and uncertainty that followed her everywhere. I often felt like an outsider observing my mom’s life as she followed her own dreams.”

“She and my sister [Wynonna] have been quoted as saying that our family put the ‘fun’ in dysfunction. I wondered: ‘Who, exactly, was having all the fun? What was I missing?’”

“I was taught to believe that our lifestyle was normal and never to question it or complain, even when I was left alone for hours, sometimes days at a time, or when I was passed without warning to yet another relative. There was always marijuana inside the house.”

“An old man everyone knew beckoned me into a dark, empty corner of the business and offered me a quarter for the pinball machine at the pizza place if I’d sit on his lap. He opened his arms, I climbed up, and I was shocked when he suddenly cinched his arms around me, squeezing me and smothering my mouth with him jabbing his tongue deep into my mouth.”

The actress said she was exposed to an unhealthy environment growing up as her mother started to bring men home and she was forced to listen to wild sex sessions and violent fights. Ashley once witnessed her mom Naomi pulling a gun at one of her “boyfriends”.

When Ashley won a modeling competition in high school, she went to Japan thinking her life would change, but it turned into a nightmare. Ashley was sexually harassed by one of the bosses and a male model, who tried to force her to perform oral sex. Ashley also claims she was raped in the car of a French businessman after she accepted a ride home.

Back in 2006, Ashley, who is happily married to racecar driver Dario Franchitti since 2001, finally went to rehab to seek professional help for depression. She confessed, “I would have died without it. It has improved my life on every level.”

“Our painful past becomes our greatest asset,” Ashley says. “Now I can look at it and say, ‘Wow, that shouldn’t have happened to a dog much less a child.’ “

Wow. I’m speechless!

The 28 year-old special-education teacher and F-Fed have already chosen the name for the baby. They picked the name Jordan because they didn’t know the gender of the baby and wanted to go with one that went both ways.

Victoria Prince Pregnant, Kevin Federline Daddy AGAIN!

Kevin said, “[Victoria] said that if we were going to have a little girl, she wanted to name her Jordan. And then, we actually thought that it was a boy, but we stuck with the name Jordan because, you know, it fits both ways.”

He adds: “We just found out the other day that we’re having a girl. So it worked out!”

Kevin is the father of two kids, 8 year-old daughter Kori and 6 year-old son Kaleb, with Shar Jackson, who he left to marry Britney Spears. The two also had two children – 5 year-old Sean Preston and 4 year-old Jayden James.

Ford Motor Company heiress, Elena Ford, the granddaughter of Henry Ford II, was arrested for driving under the influence and child endangerment after she lost control of her Explorer, while her 11 year-old son Alessandro sat in the back seat, in Ferndale, Michigan on Sunday (April 3).

The 45 year-old reportedly ran the curb, drove onto the median and swerved back into traffic before she was pulled over by the cops. Elena tragically failed simple field sobriety tests.

Elena, who works as director of global marketing at Ford, got confused while reciting the alphabet and counting back from 100 to 80. She had to take a breathalyzer test and blew a .14, which is twice the legal limit.

The Ford heiress has already publicly apologized for her behavior and the embarrassment this incident caused her family. Elena’s lawyer released the following statement:

“Ms. Ford recognizes that this is a very serious matter, and she expresses her deepest apologies for the embarrassment this has caused her family and others around her. Ms. Ford has cooperated fully with law enforcement and will continue to do so.”

Love is blind! Love is dumb! Playboy honcho, Hugh Hefner, is completely head over heels in love with his fiancée, Playmate/Girl Next Door Crystal Harris, and ready to marry her this summer (in June), but he is not ready to ask her to sign a pre-nuptial agreement.

The 84 year-old is worth $43 million. Crystal is only 24 years old and Hugh’s stamina isn’t enough to keep her in line (or in love!). There is no plausible reason for Hugh not to ask for a pre-nup. A little voice inside Hugh’s head must be screaming – GOLD-DIGGER!!

Crystal Harris Tweets A Picture Of Her New Engagement Ring (PHOTO)

WHY? The answer is stupid – LOVE! Hugh “actually cares” about Crystal and doesn’t feel comfortable bringing up the subject to the woman who makes him want to be monogamous. And Crystal, who doesn’t expect Hugh to ask for a pre-nup before the wedding, will not be the one to bring it up.

Love and romance are beautiful, but never marry without a pre-nup! Money and possessions should not define how in love you are and how much you care about someone. Want to be really romantic? Leave a smart will. And they say romance is dead…
