Forget buns! Looks like Angelina's cooking up a couple Niçois in her oven.

In case there was any doubt about the French's affection for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's unborn twins, the mayor of Nice proclaimed them honorary citizens of his city on Friday.

Who said the French don’t have a sense of humor? Well, OK, we have. Repeatedly. But it turns out we were wrong.

A due-any-minute woman staying in the same Nice hospital as Angelina Jolie flashed her belly to paparazzi through a suite window. She no doubt meant it as a joke—“Any pregnant belly will do, oui?”

But the joke’s on the media for giving the French woman’s unborn fetus his/her 15 minutes of fame. How drôle. (No word on whether the man next to her is Jerry Lewis.)

Angelina Jolie's doctor just threw a bucket of cold water on the global Brangelina babywatch.

"Angelina's pregnancy has gone very well so far, and she has absolutely no problems at all," obstetrician Dr. Michel Sussmann told E! News, before delivering the blow.

"But she still has at least two or three weeks to go until she gives birth, and she'll most certainly be staying in the hospital until after she gives birth."

Maybe Dustin Hoffman's previously believed red herring due date of Aug. 19 wasn't so far-fetched after all.

Angelina Jolie is in a French hospital to give birth. But who will liberate the twins?

Local ob-gyn Michel Sussmann is the doctor in charge of her pending delivery at Lenval hospital in Nice, the facility's spokeswoman, Nadine Bauer, tells E! News exclusively.

Bauer says Sussmann will be making a statement following the birth, but there is no word yet on when Jolie's twins are due to arrive.

Despite some media reports that Jolie's stateside doctor, Jason Rothbart, would be flying to France to tend to the delivery, he remains at his Los Angeles-area office seeing patients.

Rothbart, who also handled the births of Tori Spelling’s two children, delivered Jolie and Brad Pitt’s first biological child, Shiloh Nouvel, on May 27, 2006, at Cottage Medi-Clinic hospital in Namibia.

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz looked radiant as she openly displayed her ever-enlarging baby bump during a shopping excursion this past weekend. But it seems the mom-to-be isn't the only one who's being so forthcoming.

Hubby Pete Wentz reveals in the new issue of Out magazine that he has, in fact, puckered up in the past with members of the same team—but points out that "when I said that I made out with dudes, there was a slight sense of sexual rebellion in that."

The Fall Out Boy frontman adds, however, that he's "always felt this relentless heterosexual drive."

All of which explains the aforementioned baby bump...and the guyliner.

Independence Day could be coming early for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's latest spawn.

The Oscar-winning actress checked into a French hospital about 10 p.m. Monday to deliver her twins.

"Angelina was admitted last night and is very happy and in excellent health. Everything's going very well," Nadine Bauer, spokeswoman for the Lenval hospital in Nice, tells E! News.

Janet Jackson is so busy prepping for her upcoming Rock With U World Tour, she must have forgotten her plan to have a baby with longtime boyfriend Jermaine Dupri following said tour. Or maybe she was never clued in to the pregnancy plot?

"So, Jermaine...said that you guys may be ready for baby. Is that true?" Ryan Seacrest probed this morning on his KIIS-FM morning show.

A stunned-sounding Janet replied, "When did he say that?"

Unraveling the big secret even more…

Bigger isn't always better.

Just ask poor Jamie Lynn Spears, who's feeling pretty uncomfortable now that she's nearing the end of her pregnancy.

"She's feeling so large and just feeling all the discomfort that comes with it," a source close to Jamie Lynn tells E! News.

The pregnant teen has also been hit with some mild cramps for the past two days, our insider says.

"Sounds like some false labor pains," says the friend. "But nothing serious enough to go to the hospital over. They called her doctor, but everything's fine."

At least the pregnant teen has plenty of support...

While Angelina Jolie also discussed acting, her two upcoming films and her time spent as an activist and (once upon a time) as Billy Bob Thornton's wife in her recent sit-down with Entertainment Weekly, it's difficult not to be distracted by what she had to say about her current marital status, that mysterious etching on Brad Pitt's back and why being pregnant with twins has forced her to get creative in bed...
