Rumours are rife that Katy Perry is having Russell Brand's baby

Katy Perry’s whirlwind romance with Russell Brand certainly seems to have stepped up a gear in the past week. Fresh from the news that the pair had got engaged on New Year’s Eve whilst on holiday in India, the showbiz rumour mill went into overdrive with whispers that the 25-year-old singer may be pregnant.

So not a grand romantic gesture but a shotgun wedding? Some seem to think the loved-up pair are hiding a big secret, although one of the two isn’t doing a very good job of hiding it at all.

Twitter has played a major role in the celeb couple’s relationship so far, with the duo sharing photos and soppy messages left, right and centre. So it’s not surprising to hear that Katy Perry has let a few intriguing Twitter posts slip in recent days. On News Year’s Day she wrote on the micro blog site: “Let me tell you 2010 is BUMPIN!” and in a message to her comedian fiancé she wrote: “I heard ur prego-ed.”

The new IT couple headed out for a spot of lunch on Sunday in Hampstead, London. Katy proudly showed off her engagement ring as the pair dined at Café Rouge. According to a source at the eatery, Katy asked for her scrambled eggs to be “well done” and when they ordered chips she declared loudly to the waiter, “hold the mayo.” Pregnant women are advised against eating mayo as it contains uncooked eggs which can be harmful to unborn babies.

And if that wasn’t enough, Russell and Katy then made their may to a nearby baby shop and cooed over the little bootees on display.

Could it be that the love-struck couple simply can’t contain their excitement at the baby news, or are they having a laugh at the press’ expense? Only time will tell…

According to tabloid reports comedian Russell Brand is a changed man after falling head over heels for pop star Katy Perry. In a recent interview the notorious womaniser initially refused to comment on his fledgling romance however after a little pressing he revealed “I think I’m in love.”

The pair initially got together at the MTV Music Video Awards and were spotted looking very cosy at an after show party. After exchanging numbers and indulging in some text flirting the smitten couple decided to spend some time away from the glare of the public eye and jetted off on a 7 day holiday to Thailand last month.

Russell apparently had his eye on Katy for some time with a friend revealing he had a serious crush on her and was “like an excited schoolboy after they got together.” The source went on to say that Russell thinks Katy is his ideal partner and is even “prepared to stop seeing girls.”

The cat was officially out of the bag after the 24-year-old singer was pictured leaving the comedian’s house in London the morning after attending a showbiz party together at Jonathan Ross’s house. However it was a flying visit as the songstress was seen a few days later at Paris Fashion Week alongside fellow US pop star, Rihanna.

According to sources close to Katy she doesn’t see Russell’s womanising track record as an issue and is said to be “keen to make a go of it.”

Controversial comedian Russell Brand was the butt of the joke yesterday as he was on was pushed underwater by a random stranger. The incident happened whilst Brand was filming a scene in London’s Trafalgar Square for his forthcoming movie Get Him To The Greek, the sequel to his Hollywood debut movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

The offending passer-by, whose identity was partly concealed by a red base ball cap, managed to run the gauntlet through the film’s security team to get to the star. After giving the notorious lady’s man a good dunking, the stranger attempted to flee the scene but was pounced on by security.

One onlooker who witnessed the attack said “Brand was completely underwater. I expect he’ll have some bruises.” However the man himself seemed unfazed by the experience. Writing on his Twitter page later that evening Brand declared “I am refreshed. It’s not the first time I’ve frolicked in that wretched fluid. X” 

The stranger was held by police but has since been released as the comedian decided to not press charges; it seems Brand isn’t a man to hold a grudge.

After taking a 20 minute break from filming to dry off from his unexpected dip, resilient Russell remerged to a round of applause. He continued filming the scene in which is character is dancing drunkenly along the edge of the fountain whilst surrounded by rowdy West Ham supporters.
