Oscar for Gillian Anderson [X-Files star gives birth to non-alien baby]
Sydney Morning Herald ^ | 11-21-06 | SMH

Gillian Anderson has an Oscar now, but not for acting.

The former X-Files star gave birth to a baby boy named Oscar on November 1 in London, People magazine reports.

The boy, who weighed just under 3kg, was born three weeks early. Because of this, Anderson waited until he was out of intensive care to publicise his birth.

Oscar is the first child for Anderson and her boyfriend, businessman Mark Griffiths.

"Both (Oscar) and Gillian are just fine," says Anderson's manager Connie Freiberg. "They are extremely happy - the entire family."

In April, Anderson split with her husband, Julian Ozanne, to whom she was married for 16 months. She married the photojournalist and documentary filmmaker in Kenya and settled in London with her 12-year-old daughter Piper from her previous marriage to Clyde Klotz.

The Emmy-winning Anderson, 38, is best known as Special Agent Dana Scully on the The X-Files. Most recently, she starred as Lady Dedlock on the TV miniseries adaptation of Charles Dickens' Bleak House and will next be seen on the big screen in Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story and The Last King of Scotland.

1. "And her boyfriend." Hollywood starlet lives as if there is no holy God to judge her! Breaking News!

2. I thought she was an excellent actress, in her portayal of Scully.

3. I KNEW she was an excellent actress when I saw her on Letterman. She's nothing like Scully. She's *goofy*.

Eddie: "Who would you rather do: Agent Scully or Gillian Anderson?"

Chase: "Let's see, a flaky, self-absorbed actress or a gun-toting, badass FBI agent with years of pent-up sexual tension? No contest."

Hmmm... Interesting timelines...

Baby is 3 weeks early, let's say she carried him 8 months.

Born November 1, go back 8 months, that's March 1. When she was still married.

Yet it's the son of her boyfriend?

Scully, what have you done...

I thought a "family" consisted of a husband and wife and children.

Another Hollywood socialist, like so many of the rest. It nice to hear that she and baby are healthy and are in Great Britain.

"first child for Anderson and her boyfriend"

"Anderson split with her husband to whom she was married for 16 months"

{after}"a previous marriage to Clyde Klotz"

Is her life something out of the X-Files? Or is she, in fact, one of those extra-terrestrial pigs who have recently staked a claim on our planet?

In the 50’s I think that planet was called Slut.
