They named their son “Meredith”? I mean, it’s no weirder than “Apple” or “Pilot Inspektor”, but… Meredith?
Even EW (who will ramble on about ANYBODY) could only muster up two and a half lines of reporting for this irrelevent pair of B level actors.
@If it looks like a ho. My god, you are a moron.
Uh, Meredith is originally a Welsh male name. How is that weird? Because stupid Americans decided that it was a girl’s name, just like Ashley and the like?
We are in America LaLa! Here in America he will get his butt kicked. Anyway the Welsh are a lil fruity.
But why would they do that to that boy? He is going to have to grow up and get teased. How sad.
@Lala. Uh, so is Gwyn but I wouldn’t saddle a boy with that one either.
@Nona, like I care what you would name your kid. Just don’t complain and make jokes if other people do. And if it looks like a ho just proves the Americans indeed are stupid.
YEA that kid is getting his A$$ kicked daily. Some parents are so mean.
I didn’t even know she was pregnant. Why not Daniel Meredith?
She had a really sexy body back when she was on that show.
Like kids aren’t going to already make fun of him because his mom looks like a blow up doll.
LOL, poor girl hit her peak at 17, it’s been alllll down hill ever since.
And Jay Mohr hit his peak … when exactly? During that awful season on SNL? Honestly, I think his career’s been all downhill since the day he was orn.
I think he peaked when he costarred in Picture Perfect with Jennifer Aniston.
she has had to much surgery or botox ot her face looks twice her age.
Jay Mohr was great on last week’s Law & Order: Criminal Intent. He played a fashion designer that lived like Charlie Sheen. I never knew Mohr was that good an actor.
32 and 40? I always thought they were older.
I hope their child grows up to see a picture of his mother pre-surgery and post surgery and sees the horrible effects of plastic surgery.
They both made mistakes with plastic surgery.
Why are some of you bashing Jay Mohr? Sure, he isn’t an A-list actor, but so few people are. He’s one of the most hilarious stand-up comedians in the world, and I’ve seen him in person many times, and each time he has talked about different things (hasn’t done just one act), yet he’s killed it each time. He’s been in many movies, some good and some bad, and he also was the star of a TV show for 2 or 3 seasons. He’s done a lot since SNL, folks. The bottom line is that he’s a funny guy who’s made himself pretty rich because of what he does. What the hell’s wrong with that?
I think Jay Mohr hit his peak when he was a sleezebag in Jerry McGuire.
Oh yea! He played Bob Sugar! He was good in that role. Yup, his peak right there.
She was soooo hot until she plumped up her lips and possibly got cheek implants and an eye job. My guess is their kid will quickly start going by the name Daniel when he hits school. What were they thinking? Oh, that’s right, Hollywood types don’t think about the impact on the child, only how it impacts them.
Girls usually fare better with male names than boys do with female sounding names. He’ll probably go by his middle name like Mariah Carey’s son probably will.
I agree with Tony, Jay Mohr is hilarious and popular in comedy circles. I understand that some people won’t know about his stand up or how funny he is when he hosts the Jim Rome show, and just assume that he’s not all that successful. That’s too bad. Just because a person isn’t an A list actor doesn’t mean they’re irrelevant.
So he’ll be known as Merry Mohr? I guess that’s better than Merry Mohr-Cox.
