It’s been revealed that Jack White, the lanky screaming guitarist from The White Stripes, is expecting a baby with his wife, model Karen Elson.

Although, knowing how much Jack likes to fib about who he’s actually related to, he’ll probably claim that it isn’t his baby, but an elderly Mississippi dentist who used to be married to his Nan, or something.

Back in June, Jack White (CDs) suddenly decided to get married to Karen Elson from The White Stripes’ Blue Orchid video. On a canoe. In a river. In Brazil.
And it didn’t take long for Jack to get Karen . Really
, too – not one of those fake Jessica Simpson-style
pregnancies. According to MTV:

On Tuesday (November 29), representatives for White’s wife, model Karen
Elson, confirmed that the couple were expecting their first child. The
sex of the baby isn’t known, but the little bluesman (or woman) is said
to be due in the spring. Elson’s spokesperson went on to add that the
couple are "ridiculously happy" about the news. Representatives for
White had no comment on the matter, as they do not speak about their
artist’s personal life.

We’re
happy for Jack White, too. Mainly because there’s finally going to be someone on the
planet who will actually enjoy all the tedious songs off Get Behind Me Satan that sound like the Rugrats
theme-tune.
