Padma Lakshmi Has a Baby Girl

By PopEater Staff Posted Feb 22nd 2010 08:49AM

Padma Lakshmi is the proud mother of her first baby! According to UsMagazine, the 'Top Chef' hostess gave birth to a baby girl named Krishna over the weekend. While we don't know any more details like the weight of baby Krishna, there's one thing even more important that's still unknown: The father of the baby.

Lakshmi's rep confirmed to Us that Krishna was born on February 20 in New York City. She is the first child for the 39-year-old model and TV star.

Through her entire pregnancy, Lakshmi managed to keep the father's identity a total secret. There's no word as to whether he will be revealed now that the baby has been born.

Lakshmi's rep described her pregnancy as "a medical miracle" thanks to the 'Top Chef' star's long battle with endometriosis, a condition that can often lead to infertility.

Despite the father of unknown origin, Lakshmi has had some high-profile relationships in the past. She was the fourth wife of author Salman Rushdie. The two divorced in 2007.

I'm glad her baby girl is healthy but there's no glory in announcing another unwed mother.

While I do like the top chef show, we will not be watching it or any other show on bravo this year. bravo continues to shove their pro gay agenda down our throats at every turn. Gays make up less than 4% of the US population yet bravo would like us all to think it is 20% with the number of gays they put on top chef and all the other shows on that network. Padma got her break by marrying sugar daddy Salmon Rushdie, then dumped him once she made her contacts etc Look at the money behind bravo, Im guessing gays whose agenda is to make themselves feel better about themselves by lying to the public about the % of gays in our society and that this "lifestyle" is healthy and normal.

DC, just where, exactly, do you get your numbers? Are you fabricating the 4% estimate?

I would be ashamed to write what you wrote...I only hope and pray that the % of people who feel the way you feel continues to shrink and one day all men/women will be created and treated equal. As Jesus taught us. Let he/she who is without sin cast the first stone...

AGREE ENTIRELY ...SHOVING AN AGENDA DOWN A RELUCTANT THROAT IS ABSOLUTELY TOTALLY CATEGORICALLY WRONG ...UNLESS THE THROAT IS AGREEABLE TO SUCH SHOVING ...IN WHICH CASE IT WOULDN'T BE CALLED "SHOVING" IN THE FIRST PLACE, WOULD IT, IF THE THROAT WASN'T "RELUCTANT"? NOW THAT IS DEEP...BECAUSE IT MAKES YOU WONDER WHY ANYONE WOULD SWITCH ON A CHANNEL TO PERMIT SUCH SHOVING ...SWITCH IT OFF I SAY ...AND BRAVO, FOR DOING THAT !

padma laxitive is an industrial strength irritant and adding an illegit child to her spotty resume does nothing to increase her status in my eyes...

That is not true... if any of you are BRAVO TV fans...especially "Watch What Happens Live" Andy is the father. He announced it when Padma wan on the show with him...anyway congratualtions to them both..

By jayne

Andy is not the father. He was making a joke. He is a wonderful, cute and funny gay man.

By vntginspirations

to the Gay basher, if you truely believe in God then you would realize that all He creates is perfect in His eyes and He created all races, creeds, and sexualities. It is us mere mortals who are the problem, we are here to learn acceptance and kindness towards our fellow "humans" and realize it's the spirit of how one lives his life that is the most important thing you can do.

You just stated a position that i've recently came to terms with. I'm glad u pointed out to beleivers in the Christian faith to look within first. Before passing judgement on anyone. I'm not homophobic, but i use to be. Just as a person gains strenght with a group it also blinds individuals of true humanity. This doesn't mean i'm going to go out willingly with a gay person. But i've learn to respect everyones definition of life, if its not harming anyone else. B Blessed... Good Post!

WRONG! God said that homosexuality is abhorrent in His eyes. READ your Bible!!!

By Mack the knife

Listen you Gays and Lesbians, God created Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve. Where do get off quoting the bible? You are all wrong you poor souls.

This world is not perfect, hence the need for a Saviour. Sin is in this world it is not perfect, the bible clearly states that homosexuality is sin. If you have gay friends like I do, ask them how happy they really are with their lifestyle and "relationships."

The kinsey study was flawed, over half of the people in the study were males in prison, including many pedophiles.

No legit source has ever said the kinsey study was worth the paper it was written on.

I cant post a link but go to google and type in kinsey study flawed or number of gays in the US and you will see plenty of legit studies on the real numbers. One done by a pro gay group at a New York college put the % of gays in the US at 1.5%.

The gay lobby and thier fellow travlers would like you to think the number is much higher. It isnt.

By ICantdothat Dave

DC: How wonderful of you to give such a ringing endorsement of gay marriage! I am sure that was your point, since if such a miniscule persentage of the population is gay, then there can be no rational argument that gay marriage would have any effect whatsoever on the "institution" of marriage. Keep pounding that keyboard DC.....or pounding something.

By Dori

What does Gays or Lesbians have to do w/ her not saying who the father is? Some poster kinda went off on another track.
