    Tori Spelling blasts Kardashian show for killing alligator

    By Gael Fashingbauer Cooper, TODAY

    Some Hollywood stars aren't shy about criticizing others in their field, as Tori Spelling proved Sunday when she dissed the latest episode of "Kourtney and Kim Take Miami."

    "Any1 else upset by 2nite ep of K&K Take Miami?" Spelling tweeted. "Taking alligators life on camera as a storyline&making a mockery of it sent me over the edge."

    On the most recent episode of the E! reality show, Kourtney Kardashian's boyfriend, Scott Disick, went alligator hunting at a farm owned by former "Bachelor" contestant Vienna Girardi. Disick shot and killed an alligator, then helped skin it, and later munched on some fried gator nuggets. His goal was to use the reptile's skin to make a pair of loafers, though the shoe-making wasn't seen onscreen.

    Some of Spelling's fans agreed the killing was upsetting. Tweeted one in response, "Preach sis. you're someone who created fun, wholesome reality TV. they're people who will do anything for $$. sad."

    "I found it to be disturbing," personal trainer Sam N. Hawkins tweeted at Spelling. "Am sure K&K will hear from Animal Rights."

    And he was right.

    "It takes a small man to kill an animal for fun," a representative of the animal-rights organization PETA told In Touch Weekly. "Kind people understand that these intelligent, interesting animals — who fiercely protect their eggs and babies until their hatchlings are 3 years old — deserve to live with their families, rather than being hunted down in their homes and killed for a cheap human thrill."

    Tori Spelling shows off baby Finn, describes grueling pregnancy

    By Us Weekly

    Tori Spelling nearly lost her life fighting for her unborn son. Twenty weeks into Spelling's fourth pregnancy, doctors diagnosed her with a condition known as placenta previa -- a condition in which the placenta covers the cervix, leading to massive internal bleeding. She was even at risk for a bleed catastrophic enough to force doctors to terminate her pregnancy.

    The actress and reality star, 39, spent 10 weeks in the hospital and four grueling months on bed rest, worrying about dying and leaving her family behind. But she kept her ordeal secret from fans. In the new issue of Us Weekly, on stands Friday, the mother of four shares the emotional story of her terrifying pregnancy with son Finn.

    "I just remember thinking, I can't leave three children behind," Spelling, 39, tells Us exclusively of Liam, 5, Stella, 4, and Hattie, 12 months, who she shares with husband of six years Dean McDermott. The "Craft Wars" host's condition was caused in part by conceiving Finn just one month after giving birth to daughter Hattie, and undergoing three prior C-sections.

    Fortunately, after enduring nine massive bleeds -- and one very close call -- Spelling safely welcomed baby Finn Davey McDermott on Aug. 30. (Three weeks later, the star underwent successful emergency surgery after her C-section scars burst open.)

    It's probably a complication cause by the fact that she had kids 10 MONTHS apart. There's a reason the doctors tell you no sex for at least 6 weeks after birth...

    Another precious little boy has entered the world. According to her personal website, Tori Spelling and husband Dean McDermott welcomed a son, the couple's fourth child together Thursday, and first shared the news on Twitter when she posted, "It's a boy!!!!"

    "We are so excited to announce the birth of the newest member of the McDermott family," she wrote. "Please join us in welcoming Finn Davey McDermott."

    Aw, Finn! (Anybody else having a "Gleek" moment right now?)

    Giuliana and Bill welcomed a son, too!

    Finn arrived at 5:39 p.m., weighing 6 pounds, 6 ounces and measuring 20 inches long.

    Spelling and McDermott announced the pregnancy back in March. "Dean, Liam, Stella Hattie and I are beyond thrilled to announce that another little McDermott is on the way!" Tori posted on her website. "We feel truly blessed that another angel has found us."

    Look at all these famous families!

    The couple are already parents to Liam, 5, Stella, 4, and Hattie, 10 months.

    "Dean, Liam, Stella, Hattie, and I are beyond thrilled to announce that another little McDermott is on the way! We feel truly blessed that another angel has found us. Love, Tori xoxo," read the announcement, which was accompanied by a pic of Spelling's burgeoning bump.

    The baby-to-be will join Hattie (who was born in October 2011), brother Liam, 5, and sister Stella, 3, the actress and reality star's children with husband Dean McDermott. Spelling, 38, wed Canadian-born actor McDermott, 45, back in May 2006.

    While carrying Hattie last year, the "Beverly Hills, 90210" alum dispelled any notions that pregnancy gets any easier the second or third time around.

    "People always think the first one was the hardest. But I'm like, 'No the first one was easy for me because I could lay around all day. I didn't have two little ones to take care of,'" Spelling has said. "This is the hardest one because I'm always going with the kids."
