Only the Best for Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams' Spawn
We're hardly halfway through our latest pack of Ortho (yes, we're using the royal "we," because everyone at Gawker is either a woman or gay and on womanly hormones) and already we're perusing online baby store Buy Buy Baby. We blame a reader, however, for our latest maternal obsession: The gift registry for skank-chic actors Michelle Williams and Heath Ledger of Brooklyn, NY. You can buy Mommy Michelle a Breast Friend pillow in a lovely shade of "stonewash," or, if you're feeling particularly generous, why not splurge and pick up the Volo Stroller in peony — a steal at $99.99.

Ben & Jen Legally Become Garnfleck. Or is it Affner?
Ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod, the unthinkable has happened: Ben Affleck has officially tied Jennifer Garner to his falling star, as the two exchanged matrimonial vows last evening on what we're sure was a very lovely, very exclusive, and very "perfect" beach in Turks and Caicos.
