NAMES & FACES

Jen and Ben and Baby?

Is Jen Garner pregnant?

E! News says several sources close to Garner and her beau, Ben Affleck , confirmed that the "Alias" star is three months along. This latest update comes two weeks after other reports speculated that the supah-star duo are engaged. (She is wearing a new ring lately on the right finger.) But you gotta draw your own conclusions as, per usual, neither the stars nor their reps are talking.

Meanwhile, in other celeb-hitching news, Oscar winner Renee Zellweger and country singer Kenny Chesney were married yesterday in the U.S. Virgin Islands. They met all the way back in January at a tsunami-relief benefit.

And more info has emerged on last week's flurry of rumors that Justin Timberlake was going to marry longtime gal-pal Cameron Diaz in France. Brit tab News of the World had started the snowstorm by reporting that Sharon Osbourne said she was going to "J.T.'s wedding," which to all in Hollywood means Justin Timberlake. But yesterday, gossip guru Cindy Adams solved the mystery!

J.T. stood for Jonathan Taylor. Who? Executive producer of "The Osbournes," who in fact is getting married in France.

Goldie Hawn With Child!

Goldie Hawn was all smiles Sunday while brunching at the Ritz-Carlton on 22nd Street NW with sweetie Kurt Russell .

Wearing big black sunglasses and a trendy tunic, Goldie sat in the lobby area with Kurt and cooed over year-old Katherine Manatos, who, being 1, was running around while her family lunched. "Ooohhh, she's so cute," Goldie fawned, then told the little tyke, who's of Greek heritage: "I'm a yiayia , too." ("Grandmother" in Greek.)

Fox 5 weekend anchor Laura Evans , who is part of the Manatos clan and is expecting herself, gushed to us: "Goldie seemed so friendly -- you know, now that we're on the first-name basis."

Other Washingtonians probably witnessed Goldie's sunshininess at her book signing yesterday afternoon at Olsson's bookstore in Penn Quarter or while she dined at the Bombay Club on Sunday evening.

Katie in the Sky With Cashews

We are pleased to announce that Katie Couric , who has taken some hits in the news lately for being, well, a diva, was anything but while shuttling from Washington to New York yesterday afternoon.

The "Today" co-host gave away a coveted aisle seat, willingly sat in the dreaded, awful middle seat, and when she was offered cashews by a flight attendant, shared with everyone within reach and signed autographs.

"It was amazing how nice she was," a fellow passenger with no pro-Couric agenda told us. "She's a real class act."

Do a Little Dance, Fall Down Tonight

The good news is that KC and the Sunshine Band still perform. That bad news is that good ole KC (real name Wayne Casey ) took a headfirst tumble six feet off the stage while singing away in Phoenix on Saturday. Right at the beginning of "Boogie Shoes," too. But, being the true trouper that he is, KC forged ahead, finished the concert, then went to the hospital. The 54-year-old received six stitches.

So what made you take a header, KC? "I left my shoes at the hotel and had to perform in a new pair," Casey, who is recovering at his Miami home, said in a statement yesterday. "I picked the wrong pair of boogie shoes!"
