LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Selena Gomez is not pregnant with Justin Bieber’s child. Selena Gomez pregnant reports hit online Sunday, a day usually reserved for fake celebrity deaths to spiral out of control. But in 2011, with celebrity fans more skeptical of fake celebrity car crash reports, a new breed of false reporting has kicked off – teen pregnancies.

Selena Gomez is certainly not the first celebrity to be the subject of false pregnant reports. By all accounts, 2009 was the year of fake baby bump stories that dominated celebrity newspapers. If you were are female star in public wearing a form-fitting dress, you were the target of celebrity newspapers. If you had an extra cheeseburger that day before meeting photographers, you suddenly were reported to have, not just a bump, but a baby bump. “I’m out of shape” was usually the embarrassing remark that celebrities were forced to give news to dispute their inaccurate reports.

But this time around, the focus is not on Selena Gomez’s body, it’s just on fabricating a story.

Selena Gomez is no more pregnant than singer Monica. Monica this weekend confirmed her marriage to Lakers’ star Shannon Brown. But just weeks ago, Monica too was the subject of fake pregnancy reports. Unlike 2009’s reports, Monica’s reports weren’t predicated upon a bump. They were just simply made up. Monica’s response was that she had “happy weight” during a telecast which prompted even her publicist to call her for confirmation.

Monica told fans then “My cousin just texted and asked ‘why are u the last to know’….. I am absolutely not pregnant. God’s Grace, Great kids, Great Family and Super good love sometimes = what we in the country call happy weight. LOL. No worries. … I have gotten tons of calls. Not because u said it. But my publicist said people are asking her. I didn’t look that different to me. LOL…. Oh, well.”

UPDATE – Here again is that Celebrity Doppelganger generator. The Generator is useful as Celebrity Doppelganger week seems to be turning into Celebrity Doppelganger Month on Facebook!

Who knew?

You think you look like Selena Gomez. Now you can prove it. It’s … another Cinderella Story … for Facebook users who think they resemble a famous celeb.

Now a generator can prove it.

While this week may be Celebrity Doppelgangers week on Facebook, Celebrity Doppelganger sensations and Celebrity Look A Like trends hit in March 2009, despite someone claiming to have originated the trend just this month. As reported earlier on LALATE, the whole notion of Celebrity Doppelgänger generator went viral over a year ago in March 2009.

What is Doppelgänger week? It’s swapping out your profile pic for the celeb you most like. How cool is that!

The application remains online as it sat when LALATE first reported on it last year, before any Facebook trending or viral social sensation. It’s free, it’s fun, and it’s shocking just how close you might look like Tyra Banks!

At the core is a field of 4,000 celebrity faces archived for the app. The online generator looks at your uploaded image of yourself and compares dominant facing traits one by one against those of the 4000 archived celebrities. It then outputs the results.

The functionality is effectuated by face recognition technology. And best of all, it’s completely free.

It’s all courtesy of the website MyHeritage which answers which relative you most resemble:

“Who does junior look like? Mom or dad? This has millions of parents puzzled all over the world. The MyHeritage.com Look-alike Meter settles the debate once and for all! Upload photos of a baby/child and both parents, in any arrangement. Our cool and free Look-alike Meter utilizes state-of-the-art face recognition technology to determine the resemblance. Get the facts, and save the good-looking results to any blog or social network in a few clicks. Try the Look-alike Meter”

That Celebrity Doppelganger generator is generating just a bit too much Facebook fun with no account of its slowing down on Facebook accounts.

It’s all made possible due to a fun, free, and online generator that will enable you to partake in the Doppelgänger Facebook week month.

Says the site:

“Explore our rich and informative database of the world’s top celebrities. If your favorite celebrity seems missing, contact us. We do take requests! To see the celebrity that you resemble the most, click here.”

Whether you look like Taylor Swift (and or sound like her singing at the Grammys), or go rouge as well as Sarah Palin, Doppelgänger week was only suppose to be that – one week.

But with no let up in sight with the fun Doppelgängers has generated, not just across Facebook but Myspace and other social networks, you might try it out.

NELENA ALERT! PHOTO – Here is that picture of Selena Gomez crying as Nick Jonas sang Saturday. Are Selena and Nick back together again?

Oh, like they would ever come clean with the truth!

Fans are buzzing over the exciting Nelena news after Selena was spotted at Nick’s concert last weekend crying in the above pic and they reunited thereafter in public.

So cute.

So the big question is not whether Nelena is back, but whether they SHOULD be back together?

Which you prefer?
a) Nelena
b) Niley
b) Neither
