Eric Dane -- who debuts the first photos of 2-month-old daughter Billie in the new Us Weekly (out now) -- isn't the only one who thinks his baby girl is beautiful.
Grey's Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes told UsMagazine.com Wednesday at the Television Academy Honors in L.A.: "He's a great guy and he has one of the most beautiful babies."
Dane -- who plays Mark Sloan aka McSteamy on the hit ABC medical drama -- welcomed his first daughter with Rebecca Gayheart on March 3.

"When she came out, she was really alert and her eyes were open. The doctor gave her to her mom, and I was so ... you know, I was obviously very emotional," says Dane, 37.
Dane tells Us Weekly fatherhood has been "life changing. It changes how you look at things and how you feel about things. I like to think of myself as an artist -- but now I'm working for my kid. Now I'm a father. I've got a lunch pail, I go to work and I come home and I make sure my kid is taken care of, and I make sure my wife is take care of.

"Childbirth is a miracle," he adds, "and we've created this life."

Tell Us What You Think
16My fav is not just that he is shirtless, but that HE IS FLEXING HIS BICEP!! HAHA! What a Tool!! Dude give the self love a rest for one pic! Geesh! Oh and YES DEB, he is flexing, newborns aren't that heavy. I've had 4
Let's hope that Rebecca doesn't run over and KILL this child with her car. She got off scott free for killing a spanish child who was trying to cross the street after getting off a bus. Rebecca should have done jail time. I have no doubt she was high at the time. She is a major druggie. I feel nothing but contempt for this couple. Child killer!
I don't think them posing nude with their baby that their so excited about is tasteless at all If Hugh Lambert & Nancy Sinatra had done the same thing with one of their daughters in a movie magazine in the 1970's nobody would've said anything because she was a child of hollywood herself as her dad Frank had won the best supporting actor Oscar when she was 14 years old of course she and Hugh didn't have to use fertility treatments like Rebecca and Eric did of course her daughters were born when she was 34 & 36 respectively
Of course she will say that. Does anyone ever go up to someone with a child and go, "dang, that is the ugliest baby ever." I don't think so.
Totally inappropriate photo
Not too long ago we saw her drugged up beyond, they're naked with a prostitute. Her best friend is another druggie, Brooke Mueller. And yes, she killed someone reckless driving some years back. If they were SO happy they wouldn't be bringing prostitues into their bedroom. Eric Dane CONTINUES to have ZERO common sense. What's UP posing nude with the baby? HE'S the LAST person who should pose in such a provocative way. Does the pervert think he's sexy? I can't stand Eric or his wife. They're SO fake! Happy family? MY a$$.
I don't trust Eric or Rebecca either. Rebecca hit and killed a young boy with her Jeep a few years ago and both of them are friends with Brooke Mueller and Charlie Sheen.
I don't trust either Eric Dane or his wife. It wasn't that long ago, both were drugged up, naked and involved in a sex tape with a prostitute. McDreamy? Yeah right, who wants a pervert. This pictures are completly inappropriate anyway - it figures he still a perv. He's gross!!
He a pervert
Rebbecca and Eric Dane daughter is so cute
How do I give a gift subscription? Is there a phone number I can call for circulation or subscriptions? I can't find one anywhere on line and I want to give a gift subscription to members of my family. Thank you
I feel so sorry for this poor child. Born to a couple of sex-sleazy coke-heads....with a mother who's a child-killer.
Cokehead + cokehead = one messed up baby. All I can think of is there druggie threesome when I look at this picture. Not to mention the little boy she killed with her road rage driving.
Aww, that was nice of Shonda Rhimes to say!
I see his navel and entire naked stomach area has Finally been covered up by a UPC in the above picture!!!! Thank you for covering up that inappropriate site!! What a terrible way to photograph a new dad--what's wrong with ppl nowadays?? The picture to the right of these postings, has NO UPC on the mag. cover, so it's still visible for those that missed it...reminds me of the pix taken of Rielle Hunter by another magazine...
Shonda must have lots of money. Don't you think she could afford a nicer dress? That one looks homemade. Not that there's anything wrong with homemade, ya know...except the way it looks.
