SMASH Star Uma Thurman Welcomes Baby Girl

As first reported in US Weekly, SMASH star Uma Thurman gave birth to a baby girl yesterday. This marks the third child for the Oscar nominee and the first for her and her boyfriend, financier Arpad Busson. Busson has two sons with Elle Macpherson, while Thurman has two children, daughter Maya, 13, and son Levon, 10, with ex-husband Ethan Hawke. 

A source recently commented to US, "Uma was definitely not planning on having another kid. It was a surprise. But she's over the moon about it, very excited."

Thurman played a famous and somewhat difficult movie star who flirts with the idea of starring in "Marilyn," the musical within the musical on NBC's SMASH last season. She is well-known for her starring role in the cult feature film hit "Pulp Fiction" (for which she received Oscar and Golden Globe nominations) as well as for "Kill Bill Volume I," both directed by Quentin Tarantino. She first achieved notice in the film "Dangerous Liaisons" and "Henry & June," and went on to star in other films such as "Kill Bill Volume 2," "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues," "Mad Dog and Glory," "Beautiful Girls," "The Truth About Cats & Dogs," "Gattaca," "Batman & Robin," "Paycheck" and "Be Cool."

She also starred as Ulla in the 2005 movie version of The Producers opposite Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane.
