I had no idea this was possible. Today I stopped by a house where they just had a baby. Baby still in the basin, in fact t was the very first time I saw it being a girl. I pointed at the basin to check the name (I always change it according to my local traditions, but still fun to see what the game came up with), then I see this baby already has 1 fame star! The newborn little girl is a Notable Newcomer! She difinitely is in this household, but in the fame term?It would have been a cool feature if at least one parent was a celebrity, but in this case only her dad has 1 star, her mom has none. I find it a tad weird that the baby is as famous as her dad...??? It makes no sense...Is this a known glitch?

Guess she will lose that star, yes. And babies/toddlers can't leave the lot so there won't be much celebrity activity taking plac anyway. Hm, imagine papparazzis flocking to that crib... :)

Bug or not it is in stride with the real world mechanics where the children of the rich and famous are concerned. Especially when the news of the newly born babes of our more known folks gets chucked into the limelight of the press.

I found it amusing when my Global Superstar's niece was showing to be a Global Superstar — she's not even his kid! LOL

I got Patchy and he was a global superstar on the post... it was funny when it faded.

I suppose it's just another glitch, tbh its not a bad glitch, it doesn't interfere with my game or anything. by the time they age up, it disappears anyways.

Huh. It might be a glitch, but I don’t know. When my sims baby was born, he was a notable newcomer as well. His mother was already decently known, forgot which rank though. But, when I aged him up, he lost his relevance. So in the end, it didn’t really change much.

They... shouldn't. The public image (reputation and fame) should be part of sims' life after they reach the child stage.

Aw, come on it's amusing, at least. ;)
