LONDON:

Talk show host Ellen DeGeneres predicts that actress Jessica Alba will have a baby girl.

Alba is eight months pregnant and although she knows the sex of the baby, she does not want to reveal it to the public, reports contactmusic.com.

DeGeneres asked Alba repeatedly to reveal the baby’s gender but she refused to budge. DeGeneres then tried a traditional method of finding out the sex of the baby by holding a wedding ring tied to a string and holding it over Alba’s palm.

When the ring moved in a circular manner, she said, “It’s going in a circle, which means it’s a girl. And her name shall be Ellen — if you haven’t picked one out already.” — HNS
