Johnny Knoxville and girlfriend Naomi Nelson welcomed a new baby boy Sunday night in Los Angeles.
Rocko Akira Clapp weighed 8 pounds and measured 20 inches, and our friends at Brand X say mom and son are doing just fine.
(Our friends at Brand X also have a report on an opossum-deworming drug in 60% of the U.S. cocaine supply, so you might want click over to that later.)
It’s the second child for Knoxville, who has a teen daughter, Madison, with his ex-wife, Melanie Clapp. They were divorced in 2007.
And in case you were wondering, the ‘Jackass’ star’s real name is ...
... Philip John Clapp -- which always makes the Ministry giggle just a little.
And no, our in-house consultant advises, the birth was not filmed for the recently confirmed 3-D installment of Knoxville’s ‘Jackass’ movies.
