Billy Martin from Good Charlotte is a Dad
January 29, 2009 by Erin Balser
The Good Charlotte family is growing. Billy Martin and his wife, Linzi, had a baby boy on January 26 in Pasadena, California, People reports. The couple named their first child Dreavyn Kingslee Martin.
“Mom is doing great, baby is healthy. I couldn’t ask for anything more,” Bill told the magazine. “It is hands down the most amazing thing that has ever happened in my life. We can see so much of my wife and I in him already!”
I wish Billy and Linzi a big congratulations! I wonder now if Good Charlotte is going to revamp their tour busses to make room for all the diapers and toys!
Benji and Joel Madden in White Tie Affair Music Video
January 14, 2009 by Erin Balser
Joel Madden and his brother Benji make cameo appearances in the White Tie Affair’s new video for their song, “Candle (Sick and Tired)”. The video is about the lead singer of Whit Tie Affair seemingly on a quest to figure out his relationship with his girlfriend. The song is about that as well.
Joel and Benji show up very briefly at 1:37. They are in the tour bus.
The girlfriend in the video is Jessica Rose! Jessica Rose played Rusty’s first girlfriend Jen in Greek and, more famously, was the Youtube sensation lonelygirl15.
I think it’s great that Joel, Benji and God Charlotte are willing to get out and help support new bands. This video looks like it was lots of fun to shoot.
“Candle (Sick and Tired)” is on White Tie Affair’s new album Walk This Way.
Joel Madden Talks to Australia’s Herald Sun
December 11, 2008 by Erin Balser
Joel Madden talked to the Herald Sun yesterday about God Charlotte’s new remix album, raising a child in Hollywood and more.
Joel and Nicole may be a team but there’s one thing you’ll never see them do together-work professionally.
“From day one even as our relationship was finding its own path, we’ve always said we’ll never work together,” Joel told the paper. “We’ve never done a red carpet together, we don’t do photo shoots together. The only thing we do together publicly is our charity.”
I think this is a smart move. It lets them be established separately as professionals in an industry where everyone is ready to partner you and give you a cutesy name-TomKat or Brangelina, anyone? I know it’s something couples never strive for, but it can definitely hinder one’s career.
Joel also talks about what a good influence Nicole has been on him at home and how much fatherhood has changed him for the better. He also has the same complaints Nicole does about raising a child in Hollywood, but acknowledges that being famous allows him to give Harlow opportunities she would never otherwise get.
It’s an interesting article and you can read it for yourself here.
Joel and Benji Madden on The Bonnie Hunt Show
December 8, 2008 by Erin Balser
Joel and Benji Madden stopped by The Bonnie Hunt Show on December 5. They talked about their mom and how supportive she was for their band, growing up with a single mom and more. It’s obvious Benji and Joel have a lot of respect and love for their mom.
They also talk about their trip to Africa and Bonnie brings out some baby pictures of Harlow! So cute!
I like how they are friends with Bonnie and came on this show for her. They seem to have fun together and have lots of interesting back stories.

November 17, 2008 by Erin Balser
Joel Madden and brother Benji were two of the celebrities who stopped by for the last-ever episode of MTV’s “Total Request Live.” TRL has been on the air for over ten years. It became an MTV staple and it’s sad to see it go.

Joel Madden and Good Charlotte will be the musical guest on the October 8 episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live.
The band and Jimmy are pretty good friends. Joel and Benji appeared in Jimmy’s “I’m F***ing Ben Affleck” video that was a response to Sarah Silverman’s smash “I’m F****ing Matt Damon.”

Joel Madden Giving Billy Martin Parenting Advice
September 13, 2008 by Erin Balser
Joel Madden’s Good Charlotte band mate Billy Martin is having a baby! Billy and his wife, Linzi, learned they were pregnant and few weeks ago–a revelation that both shocked and excited them.
Billy talked to People about becoming a parent. They are planning an Alice in Wonderland themed nursery and he’s really excited. He’s also been spending a lot of time with Joel and says that Joel’s transformation after becoming a father has been positive and encouraging for Billy as he embarks on fatherhood himself!
“Joel says it’s going to change my whole world, but fatherhood is the best thing that ever happened to him,” Billy says. “He tells me not to stress out, and to try to take everything in stride and enjoy it because it’s the coolest thing that can happen to you.”
Congrats Billy and Linzi!
Harlow is going to have quite the play group when she gets older–Pete and Ashlee’s baby, Billy and Linzi’s baby and Joel’s neice Clementine!

The boys from Good Charlotte updated their video blog from Jackson, New Jersey. Nicole makes a superbrief appearance when you see Benji take a shot with a basketball in the arcade around the 30 second mark.
I love her hair up like that, I think it’s cute.
