Minnie Driver Pregnant

Last week, “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno”, which airs Monday through Friday, 11:35 p.m. to 12:37 a.m. ET on NBC, welcomed Minnie Driver as guest and musical act performing “Mockingbird” from her album Seastories.

Driver surprised both Leno and the studio audience by confirming the rumors circulating gossip pages for months. When Leno asked the actress point blank if she was pregnant, Driver responded with a definitive “Yes, I am.”

She also added, “I love it more then anything else,” but took the opportunity to quip, “I don’t know why they call it morning sickness, I am sick morning, noon and night, but it’s a fair trade off.”

Driver is currently starring in the critically acclaimed television show “The Riches” on F/X, for which she received both a Golden Globe and Emmy nomination. Driver has also achieved film success, having been nominated for an Oscar for her performance in Good Will Hunting in the best supporting actress category.
