First you hear that, yeah, it's not just those who are the closest to Anna Netrebko who never stopped hearing about how much she had loved being pregnant with Tiago (her baby boy born in September 2008, his daddy is Anna's partner Erwin Schrott: the three of them in the photo below are gracefully posing right in front of the store of one of Anna's big corporate sponsors) and that she was thinking of having another baby sometime in a not so distant future. (And the diva herself gushed to the public about how wonderful pregnancy was.
Then you hear that the Met might have already been alerted, confidentially, that Anna might, just might, not be available this coming December.
One couldn't help notice, meanwhile, that the latest pictures of Anna in Zurich from two weeks ago showed the glowing soprano covering her stomach in quite a few shots. We wonder if a rightfully proud new daddy hadn't been overheard gushing the news to his colleagues.
GIGANTIC ROFL LMAO!

I would be even happier if in fact Anna was pregnant with sextuplets, and then she got her own reality show like John & Kate Plus Eight.

Are we sure Garanča's not the father? :)

Not surprised. Homegirl is still looking thick, and her costumes are getting more and more voluminous.
Anyway, congratulations to the happy couple! I hope this time it's a girl.

Who can blame her? She wants to be a mother and have something in her life besides singing. In addition, when she sings no more and the career is over, she'll have her kids to take up her time. Kids are a great thing to have.

I wonder if there isn't some way Anna could make the next one a bit...well,... a bit more "winsome?"

I hope the second one brings in as much publicity as the first...but this time Chopard should design a little baby tiara. And why not have it lipsync to Puccini as soon as it is old enough?

Oh gosh.....just what we need at the MET: another year of Netrebko cancellations. She is on for Tales of Hoffman's new production, and La Boheme with a starry cast.
I guess the selfish opera fan in me will just have to be happy for Anna. In a couple years, after she has completed her baby business and officially married Erwin, she will finally recreate her career and become a singer with longevity.
No longer will Anna be our "sexy playboy soprano." She is becoming a woman...
