Joshua and Anna Duggar say they’re ready to premiere the name of the newest Duggar, expected to arrive Oct. 20, 2009: Mackynzie Renée.

“We are really excited about all of it,” Josh tells People about prepping for the birth of the newest Duggar. “We’re going to have a little person that is ours to raise up. That is a real blessing.”

Josh is the eldest of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar’s 18 children, whose names all begin with the letter J. The family lives in Tontitown, Ark., and is featured on TLC’s 18 Kids and Counting.

So, with the announcement of the new baby’s name, does this mean all of Josh and Anna’s kids’ names will start with M?

“We won’t decide that now,” Josh says. “We’ll take one at a time.”

Meanwhile, Anna is getting the baby’s brown and lime green room prepared – “maybe we’ll add a little pink,” she says, now they’ve found out the baby’s gender – and reading parenting books.

“My favorite part of pregnancy is feeling the baby move and kick,” she says. “And, it is so neat watching Josh enjoy the pregnancy and bond with Mackynzie. It has brought our relationship closer together.”

The family is set to be featured on Fox News Channel’s Huckabee show, talking with the former governor about Mackynzie and how the Duggar’s reality show and family experience is different than the Jon & Kate Plus 8 situation.

“I am really enjoying the reality show,” says Anna, who is the newest member of the cast. “It has been neat because they are doing such a great job of documenting our lives right now. We focus on pleasing the Lord, and trying to be who we really are. That’s what’s important.”

Jennifer Aniston has even more in common with her best pal Courteney Cox: They’ve both landed roles playing cougars.

While Courteney Cox gears up for the premiere of her new TV series Cougar Town — which debuts Sept. 23 on ABC — it was announced Thursday that Jen will also be playing a woman interested in younger men in the upcoming film Pumas.

The romantic comedy centers on two thirtysomething gals — known for romancing younger fellas — who go on a French skiing vacation that “challenges their romantic expectations.”

Jen has wrapped on three other films: Love Happens, The Baster and Bounty Hunter.

Seth Rogen and Knocked Up director Judd Apatow are still miffed over former costar Katherine Heigl knocking the hit blockbuster.

Speaking to Vanity Fair in 2007, Heigl famously remarked that the comedy “paints the women as shrews,” while the men look “lovable.” She added, “It was hard for me to love the movie.” (She later said she was “disheartened” her remarks became “the focus of my experience with the movie.”)

But Rogen says he doesn’t see how Heigl’s new comedy, The Ugly Truth, makes women look even better.

“That [movie] looks like it really puts women on a pedestal in a beautiful way,” he quipped on Howard Stern’s SIRIUS XM radio show on Thursday.

Added Apatow, “I hear there’s a scene where she’s wearing … Underwear …with a vibrator in it, so I’d have to see if that was uplifting for women.”

Apatow figured Heigl was “probably was doing six hours of interviews and kissing everyone’s a**, and then just got tired and slipped a little bit” when she made the remarks to Vanity Fair.

Regardless, Rogen said, “I didn’t slip and I was doing f****** interviews all day too … I didn’t say s***!”

Even more baffling, said Apatow, “We never had a ‘fight’” with Heigl while filming. “Seth always says, it doesn’t make any sense [because] she improvised half her s***,” Apatow said, adding that she “could not have been cooler.”

Apatow said he hasn’t spoken to Heigl since her remarks. He doesn’t know if he’d make a big deal about it, either.

“It all depends on how much coffee I have had that day,” he said. “If I was fighting … with someone else about something I may handle it wrong, and if I’m in like total Buddha mood, I’d be like ‘I feel sad that she hasn’t learned the lesson of her journey yet,’” he said.

After the remark, “[You think] at some point I’ll get a call saying ‘Sorry, I was tired…’ and then the call never comes,’” he said.

Rogen said he doesn’t feel bad since Heigl seems to run her mouth and most people, including Grey’s Anatomy staff.

“I gotta say it’s not like we’re the only people she said some bat **** crazy things about,” he said. “That’s kind of her bag now.”

Sorry ladies, People’s Hottest Bachelor Chace Crawford already has a special woman in his life to help decorate his brand new bachelor pad: His mom.

He’s also not the only Gossip Girl actor on the move. He and his mother actually ran into costar Penn Badgley on a recent trip to look for lamps at Crate and Barrel.

“He was with his mom shopping for his new place, too,” Crawford told People at a Manhattan launch party for the BlackBerry Tour smartphone from Sprint. “It was really funny. I was like, ‘What are we doing here, man?’ And he’s like, ‘I don’t know. Right now it looks like we came together with our moms to Crate and Barrel. What’s going on?’ It was embarrassing.”

But Crawford, who moved out of the apartment he shared with Ed Westwick – also recently spotted furniture shopping – says his new digs are coming along.

“I’ve got a nice leather couch and a leather chair. The big flat-screen TV came in today, and I hung it up. As long as there’s a good couch and a good TV, that’s all I need,” he said.

It’s a good thing he’s got a place to relax. Crawford has been busy training for Footloose and filming his hit TV show around N.Y. C.

Talking to Tourists
“It’s summertime now, so the tourists are all out. It’s even more energy! Even more hysteria,” he told People, adding that he’ll sometimes take a break to talk to out-of-towners.

“I know how excited these girls are,” said the Texas-born Crawford. “[The other day] I came up and I could tell these fans were being really nice and shy. I was like, ‘Come on, you’re not from New York, are you? You guys are, like, Southern girls.’ And they’re like, ‘No way! We are from Oklahoma!’ I can spot them … Those are my homegirls.”

As for honeys in his real-life – brace yourself, gals – Crawford admits he has been dating this summer, and has found ways to stay out of the paparazzi eye.

“It’s tough, but I have my ways. I’ve adapted. I’ve got my spots,” he grinned.

A lot has happened since Jon and Kate Gosselin announced their plans to divorce on their TLC show Jon and Kate Plus 8. What can the family’s fans expect to see when the reality series returns Aug. 3 in the first episode since the Gosselins’ split?

“You’ll see Jon struggle in the kitchen trying to make pizza for his kids,” TLC General Manager and President Eileen O’Neill said at the Television Critics Association panel in Pasadena, Calif., on Thursday. “You’ll see what its like when Kate has to put a tent up for the first time for her kids, who love to camp in their backyard. And she gets a little advice from her daughter who doesn’t think she does it quite as well as dad.”

O’Neill did not indicate, however, whether some of the new people in the Gosselins’ orbit — namely the women Jon has been spotted with, former gossip reporter Kate Major and Hailey Glassman — will be featured on the show.

While Jon recently told People that he’s “single — per se” and, “I don’t want to introduce anyone [I'm dating] to my kids,” he didn’t say whether he’d introduce them to fans of the show.

“As far as new people and places that may be cycling into Jon and Kate’s lives, we’re taking it on a case-by-case basis,” O’Neill told reporters.

“Jon and Kate have never said they were perfect,” O’Neill added. “You’re still going to see two parents that love their kids, but you’ll see them parenting separately.”

Michael Jackson’s possible aliases used to fill prescriptions included his personal chef, his son Prince Michael, a personal assistant, the novelist Jack London and 1930s movie actress/dancer Josephine Baker, according to court documents released Thursday.

Warrants obtained to search the Las Vegas home and office of Jackson doctor Conrad Murray show that authorities were seeking evidence of the “delivery and storage” of the drug propofol, a powerful anesthesia that Jackson may have taken before his June 25 death. Jackson regularly used propofol to help him sleep, according to media reports.

The documents say authorities were searching for “charts, associated laboratory workups and X-rays, payment records and identification documents related to patient Michael Joseph Jackson” or a number of “aka’s” he may have used. These included the name of his chef Kai Chase and personal assistant Michael Amir Williams Muhammad.

In addition to London and Baker, other possible aliases listed were Paul Farance (also spelled Farnce), Bryan Singleton, Mike Jackson, Mic Jackson, Jimmy Nicholas, Blanca Nicholas, Roselyn Muhammad, Faheem Muhammad, Frank Tyson, Fernand Diaz and Peter Madonie.

The warrant was signed in Las Vegas District Court on July 24, two days after DEA agents raided Dr. Conrad Murray’s medical practice in Houston. Authorities in Las Vegas seized a computer harddrive, several cell phones, miscellaneous paperwork and a CD bearing the name “Omar Arnold,” one of the aliases listed in the warrant.

A separate search warrant also indicted that authorities raided a storage unit in Las Vegas on Tuesday, but no items were seized.
