A Tale of Two Romans
Wait, I thought I was having some sort of weird teenage-PCP-use flashback when I saw the Cate Blanchett baby announcement:
The Oscar-nominated star of "Elizabeth" gave birth Friday to Roman Robert in London, publicist Lisa Kasteler said Monday. There were no further details.
Let's turn the clock back a week:
Debra Messing, the star of the NBC comedy Will & Grace, has named her newborn son Roman Walker Zelman, US Weekly reports.
First of all, they both named their sons after a statutory rapist? And flash forward 30 years. Two best friends, born a week apart, both named Roman — one obese and in rehab, the other a flashy emaciated coked-addled movie producer... on Mars or something. It'll be the Lifetime movie we'll have been waiting for all our lives.
