August 21, 2008

There won't be much "livin' la vida loca" for Ricky Martin these days - he's now the father of twin boys. The Latin superstar had the children via a surrogate mother, and the babies were born a few weeks ago, according to a statement from his representatives. "The children, delivered via gestational surrogacy, are healthy and already under Ricky's full-time care," said the statement. (AP)

The show went on for the Dave Matthews Band on Tuesday night, with Matthews paying tribute from the stage to saxophonist LeRoi Moore, who died earlier in the day. "We all had some bad news today," Matthews told the sellout crowd at the Staples Center in Los Angeles after the first song. "Our good friend LeRoi Moore passed on and gave his ghost up today and we will miss him forever." Two songs later, Matthews once again made reference to Moore, saying: "It's easier to leave than be left." Moore, a founding member of the band, died of complications from an all-terrain vehicle accident in June. Moore had recently returned to his house in LA to begin a rehabilitation program.
