11.04.03 Letterman
Girlfriend Have Baby Boy
Novemeber 4, 2003
NEW YORK (AP) - David Letterman is a daddy.
Letterman's girlfriend, Regina Lasko, delivered a baby boy
late Monday night. He weighed in at 9 pounds, 11 inches and
is 21 inches long, Letterman announced on his show Tuesday
night.
"I could never imagine ever being a part of
something that turned out this beautiful," Letterman said,
according to a transcript from "Late Show," which is taped
earlier in the day.
Letterman, 56, said the baby - his first
child - is named after his father, Harry Joseph Letterman,
who died at 57.
"So God bless dad and God bless Harry,"
Letterman said.
The talk show host joked: "I don't know,
maybe I shouldn't have done this. First thing I took him
home and dangled him over the balcony," a reference to pop
star Michael Jackson briefly dangling one of his children
over a balcony.
Bandleader Paul Shaffer had filled in for
Letterman as host of the "Late Show" Monday night when Lasko
went into labor. Tom Keaney, spokesman for Letterman's
production company, Worldwide Pants, said he didn't know
where the baby was born.
The show Tuesday night included a Top Ten
list of reason's why Letterman was excited to be a father.
The No. 1 reason: There is now tangible evidence that I have
had sex.
