So it seems Nicole Kidman is pregnant and yes of course she’s already boozing it up.

The frozen faced Aussie couldn’t help herself at this weekend’s Oscar Awards ceremony even during the live telecast. We may remember a pregnant Gwyneth Paltrow pulling a similar move while pregnant with (rarely photographed) baby boy Moses just years ago.

It appears that in Hollywood alcohol is completely acceptable for pregnant women while socializing. Unfortunately we attack Britney Spears for drinking within days of seeing her kids while we let Nicole off the hook for boozing it up with her unborn child?

Fetal alcohol syndrome isn’t pretty but it may be surprising to hear that 1/3 of mothers between 25-44 years of age have consumed alcohol at some time or another during pregnancy. Expectant mothers should know that even light boozing can cause anything from subtle learning disabilities to central nervous system disorders and facial anomalies. And we wonder why every Hollywood brat is being fed pills for ADD! Alcohol is in fact the leading known preventable cause of mental and physical birth defects in the United States.

So shame on you Nicole! Especially noting that your husband is a recovering addict who recently relapsed!
