Jordan and Christina have a "mommy-daddy night" at Las Vegas hot spot LAX.

Paparazzi are making it tough for Christina Aguilera to enjoy a little adults-only time. The makeup-slathered, E-cup-flashing mom of four-month-old Max says she's been unfairly criticized over recent photos showing her hitting a few Los Angeles hot spots and shaking her groove thing during a hosting gig at LAX nightclub in Las Vegas. "I spend all day with my son and once in a while if I want to go out and have a mommy-daddy night with my husband [Jordan Bratman], I am more than allowed to do that," she declares to "Access Hollywood." "They never air [footage] of the paparazzi actually pulling up beside my husband and being like, 'When is she going to leave the house? I have been trying to get a picture of her for weeks.'" Still, Christina isn't too worried about the finger-waggling she's received from the blogosphere and beyond over the late-night outings, downplaying, "Everybody has an opinion and everybody sometimes wants to cause drama and be mean-spirited, but it's something that comes with what you do and I learned that very early on."

Gwyneth forces herself to smile at the Cannes Film Festival.

Gwyneth Paltrow seems to be having some second thoughts about her procreation plans. Last August, the Oscar-winning mom of Apple, 4, and Moses, 2, told W that she might have "two in a row really quick again," but in the July issue of Harper's Bazaar, she recalculates her expected number of stork visits. "I may force myself to do it one more time because the result is so worth it," she says. "And also my [late] dad said to me that his only regret in life was that he had only two children and he didn't have more." The reason for her reticence to incubate another peculiarly named ankle-biter? "My mother loved each [pregnancy] to bits; she felt alive and beautiful," sighs Paltrow. "I wanted to throw up all the time." Mrs. Chris Martin is also still "very open" to the idea of adopting a child (back in January, she said, "We might get one from Brooklyn"), figuring, "I do feel we're so fortunate, and we kind of owe it to humanity. We have a lot of love to give and a lot of resources."

"I'm not sure anyone -- and I could be wrong in this -- grows up thinking, I want to be a single mom." That's Bridget Moynahan, opening up to Harper's Bazaar about discovering she was pregnant with now 10-month-old son Jack (aka John Edward Thomas Moynahan) shortly after her three-year relationship with Tom Brady ended in November 2006. "Going through that traumatic time of being heartbroken and then being pregnant turned my whole life upside down and inside out and just knocked the wind out of me," admits the actress. "But I got so much out of that. It's golden and it's tough and it was [bleeped] up. But now I have a child, and it's the best thing in the world." She also reveals it wasn't easy breaking the baby news to her parents. "When you're suddenly pregnant and no one is standing by your side, even if you're in your 30s, it's a hard conversation," she acknowledges. "I'm a traditional girl, and I believe in marriage, and I just always thought that's the way I'd be doing this. For a moment, it was hard for me to accept that this was the way I was going to have a family. I've had to recognize that there are just so many different options today." And while her quarterback ex quickly moved on with Gisele Bundchen, Moynahan is still wading into the dating pool, with her mommy status serving as a strong dose of chlorine. "It's brought higher-quality people into my life because whoever is going to be [with me] understands straight off the bat that it's a package," she tells the mag, adding, "I'd rather be alone [than] with somebody who doesn't work. I don't need that, and my son doesn't need that."

Eva and Tony hit the CFDA Awards in New York on June 2.

Take a figure-hugging dress on a tiny actress, toss in some overflowing cleavage and an ever-so-slight bit of belly swelling and voila, you've got yourself a baby rumor. Eva Longoria is once again the subject of stork rumblings after turning up Monday night at the CFDA Awards in New York sporting a second-skin pink dress and a barely perceptible bulge that seemed to indicate a peanut had been recently consumed. But a source close to the "Desperate Housewives" star, who back in January dismissed similar speculation by saying, "No pregnancy, not yet ... We're just letting God decide it," insists to FoxNews.com that she and husband Tony Parker are not yet expecting the pitter-patter of little feet. "Eva isn't pregnant," pooh-poohs the insider. "She isn't allowed to be, we need her to travel and promote!" The official word from Longoria's rep: "We don't comment on our clients' personal lives."

Unlike many 17-year-olds, who will spend the summer working menial jobs and thinking about college applications, Jamie Lynn Spears is buying furniture and picking out colors for the nursery in her new house. People reports the about-to-pop starlet and her fiancé, Casey Aldridge, 19, have outfitted their recently purchased five-acre Mississippi pad with an ornate four-poster, king-size canopy bed and a leather sofa. Jamie Lynn is also doing up the nursery -- with help from mom Lynne -- in shades of pink, brown and "silver-green," a mole tells the mag. "They're very happy," chimes in another source. "They're a fun little couple."

And finally, Reese Witherspoon is sharing some of the hard-won lessons she learned after becoming a parent. "I think probably that no one warns you that you don't sleep the first year -- that's one of them," the sunny Oscar winner tells Momlogic.com. "And you basically become a limo driver by the time they're 9 years old." Yes, it seems that when she's not staring into the dreamy eyes of Jake Gyllenhaal, Reese is taking on car pool duty for tykes Ava, 8, and Deacon, 4. "I'm a professional driver now," she laughs. "I'm right up there with the Earnhardts!" And she has a NASCAR-approved soundtrack to prove it. "I force my children to listen to my radio stations and they listen to a lot of country music," says the "Walk the Line" warbler. "Very unhappily."
