Jessica Alba gives birth to a daughter

Hi, it's Monday, June 9, 2008 and I'm Melisse Hinkle with today's UPI Entertainment Update.

Jessica Alba is a new mom. The actress reportedly gave birth to a baby girl on Saturday. Alba and her husband, Cash Warren, named their daughter Honor Marie Warren. This is their first child. The couple married last month at the Beverly Hills courthouse after getting engaged last December. In a recent interview, Alba told "Fit Pregnancy" she plans to be the kind of mother who strikes a balance between being an authority figure and being a gentle parent who's open to hearing about her child's problems.

Patrick Swayze isn't slowing down. Despite his battle with pancreatic cancer, the actor plans to move forward with his work on a new television project this summer. Swayze will play FBI agent Charles Barker in a drama called "The Beast," which will air on A&E. The actor went public with his cancer diagnosis three months after shooting the pilot of the show, which is now set to film in Chicago and premiere in early 2009. The "Dirty Dancing" star is reportedly responding well to treatment he's receiving at Stanford University Medical Center and he'll continue with his care while working on the new show.

Actress Lynda Carter says she responded like any other person when she found a woman's body in the Potomac River in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday. The actress, who played Wonder Woman in the 1970s television series, was reportedly out in a boat by herself when she first saw the body. She wasn't carrying a cell phone, so she motioned to nearby fishermen and instructed them to call police. Carter then directed officials to the body when they arrived. D.C. authorities haven't announced the cause of death.

"Kung Fu Panda" shot to the top of U.S. box offices during its opening weekend. The animated movie, featuring the voices of Jack Black, Angelina Jolie, Dustin Hoffman and Lucy Liu, came in at No. 1 with $60 million. "You Don't Mess with the Zohan" starring Adam Sandler, sits at No. 2 with an estimated $40 million in ticket sales. And the latest installment of "Indiana Jones" with Harrison Ford dropped to No. 3, after bringing in nearly $23 million. Last week's box office winner, "Sex and the City," with Kristin Davis, Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattrall and Sarah Jessica Parker, fell to No. 4 this week. That's all according to Box Office Mojo.

Stars stepped out for the premiere of "The Incredible Hulk" in Los Angeles this weekend. Actor Lou Ferrigno was at the event with his wife. He's the voice of the Incredible Hulk in the film. Other cast members including Liv Tyler, William Hurt and Edward Norton were also on hand for the premiere. "The Incredible Hulk" hits U.S. theaters on Friday.

That's it for now. Thanks for watching this entertainment update and go to UPI.com for more headlines. Have a great day.
