It's a Girl for Maya Rudolph and Paul Thomas Anderson

By PopEater Staff Posted Dec 4th 2009 04:27PM

Former 'Saturday Night Live' star Maya Rudolph and her director husband Paul Thomas Anderson welcomed their second child last month. Rudolph's rep told PEOPLE that Lucille was born Nov. 6 in Los Angeles. She is her second child with the 'There Will Be Blood' director. Their daughter, Pearl, is 4.

The famously private actress, 37, reluctantly spilled the beans about the pregnancy back in May, just before the release of the film 'Away We Go,' which she plays an expecting mom.

"I wasn't planning on sharing it, but yes I am pregnant!" she said at the time. On being pregnant on screen and in reality, she said, "I know it's really weird timing."

Rudolph, whose other film credits include 'Idiocracy' and 'Prairie Home Companion,' said she was totally stoked to be a Mom of 2. "I feel like everyone who has had more then one [child], says you should do it. It's nice to have this experience."

Congrats to Maya Rudolph. I remember her late mother, the fabulous Minnie Ripperton who had the voice of an angel and left us too soon because of breast cancer. I'm sure Minnie is singing joyful praises in Heaven.
