Introducing baby Baio

Here’s our first peek at actor Scott Baio, 46, and wife Renee‘s new little girl, born on November 2nd. As Renee told us earlier this month, Scott taped the Ellen show a few weeks ago, and they were hoping to have the episode air and be able to share their daughter’s name at that time. However, Renee tells CBB,

The Ellen show will now air January 7th, and will be her first new show next year. They only showed pictures of our baby, Ellen didn’t bring us out…they said that she gets really nervous around babies? Anyway, we couldn’t tell everyone her name, as vH1 has informed us that we are under contract not to…

The second season of Scott’s reality show — titled Scott Baio is 46 and Pregnant — begins on January 13th.

Can’t wait till the next season, I love this show and have always liked scott. The baby is cute, from what I can tell she looks like both parents so far.

She looks like she’s cute! Can’t wait to hear the name.

Wow, it is a sad world when VH1 legally prohibits you from telling people your child’s name. But then again, I guess they agreed to that as part of their contract. Seems very strange to me!

I thought they were naming her Bailey?

That would be so hard not being able to say her name! And for this long of a time!

I would never agree to such a contract. It’s commercialising your baby to the fullest.
The way it reads it seems she is not too happy about it either.

She’s so cute! Can’t wait to find out her name and everything else once the show starts.

Bad VH-1!

That’s just crazy! What does it matter if they release her name or not? Are viewers going to be like…well we know her name so there is no point in watching the show now? Really, Vh1? Anyhow, cute baby.

I don’t see why vh1 didn’t want them to reveal the name, it’s not gonna make viewers not wanna tune in because we know the baby’s name lol. But I guess it’s part of their contract and since they are getting paid to be on this show, they have agreed by the rules. She is so cute though.

It looks like the picture is the one that the hospital takes for you. If so, I am impressed at how alert she seems. My little guy slept right through his picture. I have never been a fan of Scott Baio (I met him once and he was very rude) but I do like his girlfriend. She seems like a very sweet person. Scott is lucky to have them.
