In today's generous-diva news, Jennifer Lopez performed her song "Let's Get Loud" at the graduation ceremony of a class of 10 and 11 year olds at a school for autistic children. Inexplicably, the children were obsessed with both the song and the video, and once Jennifer Lopez caught word of this, she was inspired to visit and perform for the kids. Since the article doesn't say that the kids went home disillusioned and confused, she definitely lip-synced her performance. Joking! Mostly. It's a sweet story.

It turns out that Jennifer Lopez only pretended to learn a valuable lesson about letting the media into her life after her trainwreck of a relationship with Ben Affleck. Why else would she agree to star in a reality show with Marc Anthony about raising her twins?

The show "deliver a slice of [Lopez's] life that audiences have never seen before, as she takes on her career and launches a new fragrance while trying to juggle her new responsibilities as a first-time mom," according to TLC. They had to throw that fragrance mention in there, didn't they? At this point, I would like to be able to indignantly announce that I will not be watching, but we all know that's not true. [NYDN]

Adorable twin babies you conceived with your strange husband: Priceless.

Pictures of said adorable twin babies on the cover of People: $6 million.

Typical of Bad Boy's late-90s silly excess, the extended version 1997's "Been Around the World" video is … silly and excessive. But with Vivica Fox, Quincy Jones, Wyclef, Jennifer Lopez, a pre-born-again Mase, and Diddy when he had a lot more hair, it's pretty entertaining to watch.

WAITING FOR LAST NIGHT Jennifer Lopez finally gave birth to her twins, a boy and a girl, last night in a Long Island hospital.

The babies were born early Friday in Long Island, N.Y. The girl was born at 12:12 a.m. and weighed 5 lbs. 7 oz., and the boy followed at 12:23 a.m., weighing 6 lbs.

"Jennifer and Marc are delighted, thrilled and over the moon," Lopez's manager Simon Fields tells PEOPLE exclusively.

They're the first children for Lopez, 38, and the fourth and fifth for Anthony, 39.

The couple will be able to buy their new babies far more than they need with the $6 million payout they're about to pocket for exclusive photo rights.

Jennifer Lopez, who has been looking like she's going to pop for about four months, and her sunken-cheeked mate, who has been looking like a strong gust of wind could blow him away for about four years, have checked into their reserved hospital room in Long Island, presumably to give birth to their twins. The birth of the long-awaited babies should bring a smile to the new parents' faces for more reasons than one, rumor has it that People is paying $6 million — a sum that could put an obscene number of less privileged children through college — for the first photos of the Lopez-Anthonys.

Beyonce attended Conde Nast's first "Movies Rock" event in Los Angeles Sunday, and, be still my beating heart, is that actual human scalp I see on top of her head? My eyes must be playing tricks on me.

Also in attendance at the star-studded event were Jennifer Hudson (no human scalp in sight), Eve, Eddie Murphy & beard, a glowing and very pregnant Jennifer Lopez, Regina King, LL Cool J, and new dad Usher, looking like an extra from Newsies. That's not all — check out the rest of the pics after the jump.

I certainly both understand and participate in "baby bump" speculation when it's not 100 percent clear whether or not a star is pregnant. But at this point, with Jennifer Lopez's belly protruding like she's in the latter part of her second trimester, is there really a reason to keep discussing it? Were we really waiting with baited breath for some sort of confirmation on her part? I wasn't, but apparently a lot of people were.

She announced that she is with child last night at the last show of her El Cantante tour. She said she wanted to wait until the tour was over because she didn't want her audience to be distracted by anything while she was performing. Good thing she covered up her bump so well.

Kid Rock seems to think he's a Rock & Roll genius, probably because all music, particularly rap, comes so easily to him. Some people — I don't know who the hell they are — agreed with him, because his album debuted at No. 1.

Meanwhile, Kanye West is the only one representing for brown folks in the top ten, holding strong(er) at No. 6. And this week's most disappointing and embarrassing debut? Jennifer Lopez' Brave at No. 12 with 53,000 sold. Oh well, at least her family life is going well.

Jennifer Lopez is ready to publicly share the news we've all privately known — especially after her shirt blew up a few days ago at a concert in Connecticut. According to Page Six, she'll announce her pregnancy at her Madison Square Garden concert tomorrow.

Then maybe she can trash those crazy, voluminous costumes for some nice maternity-wear.

I'm not judging. I totally understand why Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony would want to deny their pregancy — it's probably really early and it is a private matter. Hell, Christina Aguilera hasn't even made an official announcement, and her baby bump is more than visible. But after reviewing the photos from their concert in Atlantic City this weekend, I have to take a page out of R.Kelly's book and say, your publicist is tellin' me no, but your wardroooobe's tellin' me yes.
