jOEL mADDEN aND nICOLE rITCHIE uPDATE

October 2007 Joel Madden couldn't hide his happiness about becoming a father on Ryan Seacrest's Los Angeles morning radio show. Madden told Seacrest, "I'm excited. We are all really excited about it. It's the best thing that has ever happened to us. It's awesome." Our panel weighs in on what this does for Madden and Ritchie's romantic appeal.

Sharon Moore "I just hope this is not some media stunt. We have seen enough of those lately with J-Lo and Marc Anthony. I think Madden and Ritchie will surprise everyone and prove to be great parents." We can only hope so, Sharon.

Anita Star "I think fathering children is sexy. So, Madden is sexier in my eyes. He can father my child any day." That says a lot about your upbringing, Anita.

Teddy Celeb "Hmm… Hey, I don't think being parents makes you any less sexy or otherwise romantic. Nicole and Joel will still be the source of their romance. The kids have nothing to do with it." If you say so, Teddy.
