It's an exciting time in the personal lives of past American Idol finalists.

Clay Aiken has announced he's gay; LaKisha Jones has gotten married; and, most recently, Paris Bennet has given birth to a girl.

Egypt Bennett was born yesterday afternoon. She weighed in at 5 lbs., 15 oz.

"I'm so excited to finally see my little angel – and man, does she have lungs on her," the first-time mother said. "I guess she's gearing up to be the next American Idol."

Congrats, Paris!
