Blake Lively is doing the talk show rounds for her new film The Age of Adeline. There's one topic every interviewer wants to talk about - her daughter James.

First things first, the name. She said that: "It's a family name, and I liked having a boy's name, so I thought pass it on."

On Live! with Kelly and Michael Blake said: "I think she looks like her Daddy. I want a maternity test, I'm not sure about this kid. She never left our side, but."

When asked how James has changed her life Blake said: "Everything is different. You see a balcony and you're like 'oh god, the hotel needs to demolish this balcony because my child can't go anywhere near it.' Everything is so heightened, we're crying all the time for no reason.' Oh and another thing that's changed - Ryan Reynolds now smells like poop.

On another note, two hours sleep looks good on you Blake.
