Jenny From The Block? No, It’s Jennifer Lopez, And She’s Greedy And Out Of Touch With Reality
According to People, Jennifer Lopez has registered at baby boutique Petit Tresor, and she has a wish list of things for her little bebés gemelos as long as her jewel-encrusted, impeccably manicured arm:
Following in the footsteps of Nicole Richie and Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez called upon the experts at Hollywood favorite baby boutique Petit Tresor. The new mom opened a lengthy registry and had owners Nina and Sam help her design fabulous nurseries for the arrival of her twins! So what’s in store for the twins? J.Lo will keep her new baby boy wrapped in a cashmere cardigan, hat and bootie pants from Baby Cz, $279 and, of course, a matching pink set, $279, for the new fashionista of the family. The two newest members of the Anthony-Lopez clan will also have a set of Plain Mary’s Hunk and Babe onesies, $169. For the nursery, the twins will dream away in Chelsea Sleigh cribs, $1390 each while Mom and Dad relax in Glam Gliders $1,420 each. And when they need changing, the twins will have a Clara changing table, $1780. And why give up gorgeous handbags just because diapers are involved? Check out Jennifer’s Italian leather and snake skin trim Mia Bossi diaper bag, $1250.
[for the record, I didn't find a Mia Bossi leather diaper bag at the site, but I did find this Italian leather and snakeskin trim bag, $1250]
Um…HELLO? You have got to be kidding me. Cashmere sweaters, $170 onesies, $1400 baby cribs, leather and snakeskin diaper bags? You can get onesies at Wal-Mart, five in a pack for nine bucks. At Target, you can get a really pretty sleigh bed for less than $400, and that’s one of the most expensive ones offered there. And when I left the hospital, they gave me a free diaper bag, and they even filled it with goodies. Granted, it wasn’t Italian leather, but it looked kind of like fabric and it cleaned up really easily when the poopy diapers leaked.
And that’s one of my points. These. Are. BABIES. What do babies do? They eat, sleep, cry, poop, pee, spit up, and generally lay around like lumps while making as large a mess as possible from such a tiny little creature. They can go through several outfits a day when they’re really little, what with spit up and runny yellow diapers, and it gets worse when they get to be toddlers and start feeding themselves (or wanting to, anyway) and running around the house finding all sorts of things to get into. What is the point of dressing the tots in $300 outfits when they are going to puke all over them?  It sounds to me like it’s the parents showing off the size of their egos. After all, stuff like that just plays to the egos of the parents…the baby could care less if it is wearing a onesie from a ritzy boutique or one from Wal-Mart.
And here’s another point. If Jennifer’s friends really wanted to be so “helpful”, then they should save their money and definitely NOT buy Jennifer and Marc anything. After all, these two have enough money to go buy their own baby clothes and furnishings (maybe they could use some of that $6M they’re getting from whoring out their kids to People). It’s a waste and an abomination.
I say, instead of spending $300 on a cashmere set, their friends should take that same $300 (or any other amount they’d spend on overpriced baby bling gifts for Jennifer and Marc the babies) and donate it to a shelter for abused and battered women and children, or to a children’s charity, or to a home for abandoned infants and children. It would go to much better use than giving it to a greedy, narcissistic, egotistical, out-of-touch-with-reality diva.
And that goes for all the other greedy celebutard parents as well.

Do these people have any idea what reality is? There are so many families that can barely afford diapers and formula. Let alone health care for their families. It would be a lovely gesture if these two who certainly don’t need an extra $6 million would make a charitable donation in their childrens’ names to a children’s hospital, or some facility, or organization that helps children and families in need.

Nothing like a mustard-colored runny poop to make your cashmere look like crapmere. Someone needs to smack some sense into these two. I vote k doing it. Don’t mess with the mysterious one!

I agree. But if they want to spend insane amounts of money on baby stuff, then that’s their buisiness. But seriousl, why not give 2 charity?

they have made enough money to buy these things…….so they will. just because other people cant afford the bare neccessities in life means they shouldnt spend their money on luxories? i disagree. these people have earned their money, fair enough its not exactly hard graft but they still earned it.and i am in no doubt they have both contributed a considerable amount to charity. jennifer can afford the very best for her children and she doesnt need to purchase things from wal mart ect to try and save money because she doesnt need to. geddit?

I totally get it. YOU’RE the one who doesn’t get it.
And apologists like you never will.

The best, yeah — but for cryin’ out loud, it just seems like a waste. I was constantly buying new onesies for my kid because for the first six months she went through about 5 of them a day.
There’s nothing wrong with wanting the best for your kids, what parent doesn’t? And if you can afford it, so much the better, but… I don’t know… it just seems like such a waste, because the kids aren’t going to notice, and it seems that a cashmere onesie is more for the parent’s vanity than a necessity.
First-time parent, sigh. (because Mark already has other kids, so I’m sure he just kept his mouth shut and tried not to let J-Blo see him rolling his eyes)

Just Let ME Say Don’T Hate! I Bet IF YOU Had MONEY You Would Spend [$$$] On Some Dumb Ass Shit And If They GOt IT LEt Them Spend IT It’s There MONEY not Yours They Can Do What They WAnt With It.

If I already had more money than I knew what to do with, then you bet your bottom dollar (no pun intended) that I would MOST DEFINITELY give to those less fortunate. Even if someone gave me $6M now, I’d give a hunk of it.
One of the points I’m trying to make is that it is TOTALLY RIDICULOUS for anyone to pay this kind of money for BABY PHOTOS. What makes J-Lo’s babies any more special than anyone else’s babies? What makes ANY star’s baby more important than Jane Doe’s baby? They have famous parents? Big deal.

Yes, You Are Right What Makes Stars Any Better Then Average People The Can Get Away With Alot Of Things DUI etc. WE Should All Be Treated With All The SAme.
Another Reason They Are Paying Alot Is Because These Are First Babies.
PS. K Your Pretty True Person And Seem Like YOu Dnt Give A Fuc* lol, And Prove Your Point.

I truly could care less about cashmere onesies and elaborate nurseries. I don’t care if they throw money from their rooftop. The point I’m attempting to make, is that selling baby photos for that much money only makes them look like money grubbing boneheads. How can anyone justify receiving such a ridiculous amount of money for giving birth? Isn’t it rewarding enough to have a healthy baby( or babies)? I do hope that in good conscience they make a charitable contribution.Oh, and by the way, these babies better be worth $6 million. It would suck if they paid that much money for some ugly babies.

J…Thank you, I think? I just am who I am, y’know? I’ve been around the block a few times, I’ve seen a lot, and I guess perhaps I have a different perspective than some people. I just try to be me, I can’t be nobody else.
