Though I can't understand it for the life of me, people love it when celebrities have babies. There's something that people just can't resist about two beautiful people screwing and popping out a future Miley Cyrus/Justin Bieber fan (or whatever the newest sensation is for the tween set when they come of age). For that reason, What To Expect When You're Expecting should appeal to a lot of people. The movie is basically about a bunch of famous people pretending to get pregnant from other famous people and connecting them all in New Year's Eve/Valentine's Day-type fashion. Don't believe me? Just take a gander at the new character posters released for the film.

You can see three of the pieces below and head over to iVillage to see the rest.

I'm actually kind of surprised by these posters. While many R-rated comedies have to tone down everything for when they put out advertising art, these have women talking about how horny they are, how big their breasts have gotten and how pregnancy is bullshit. I don't know if their aiming for controversy, but I really never expected this.

What To Expect When You're Expecting is directed by Kirk Jones (Waking Ned Divine, Nanny McPhee) and stars Elizabeth Banks, Anna Kendrick, Genesis Rodriguez, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Dennis Quaid, Brookyln Decker, Chace Crawford, Joe Mangeniello, Chris Rock, and about a thousand other recognizable faces. To read more about it and see the first trailer, head on over to our Blend Film Database.
