BREAKING NEWS: Britney Spears Did Not Win a Grammy

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 14:05:00 GMT

Shocking, but Britney Spears didn't win a Grammy. That hurt, because I felt Gimme More was one of the most compelling, complex, well-crafted songs of the decade. Then again, I really like root canals, too.

Britney didn't seem to care one way or another; when asked by photographers if she was planning on attending last night's awards, she screamed, "Kiss my ass!" I thought that was Adnan's job.

Forget the Fed Rate Cut: Britney Spears is Good For America

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 23:50:00 GMT

Who knew that when Britney Spears flashed her panties, it was for the good of our country? Because along with the imaginations of 13-year-old boys, the economy is also being stimulated by Spears' antics. According to Portfolio magazine, the troubled pop star was responsible for bringing $110 - $120 million to our nation's economy. God Bless Britney Spears!

Here's a sampling of the Britney Economy:

Photo Ops: A single picture of Britney can bring in over $100,000. Which is why I tell my kids - don't go to college, just get yourselves a decent camera.

Promotions: Wanna closer look at her weave? Pure Nightclub in Las Vegas reportedly sold seats at a table next to hers for $50,000 at a recent event.

Record companies: Since her debut, Spears' records have brought in more than $400 million to Jive Records. Don't look at me - I only downloaded one song off of Blackout.

Hello! Britney Spears is Allowed to Phone Her Kids

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 14:05:00 GMT

According to court documents released on Monday, Britney Spears is allowed to talk to her sons Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1 on the telephone but is still not allowed to see them. Contrary to rumor, that decision had nothing to do with this frightening hairstyle.

Commissioner Scott Gordon ruled at last week's hearing that "(Spears) is to have telephonic contact with the minor children. All prior orders remain in full force and effect."

Britney, reach out and touch someone!

Britney's Man: Male Enhancement Test Subject

Sassy Smith — Sat, 26 Jan 2008 12:02:00 GMT

Nothing spells 'romance' like 'male enhancement' test products. And that's probably why Britney is so hot for Adnan! Reportedly Mr. Ghalib is on a test panel for SexHealthReview.com. Yes, a site that tests and/or reviews those said male enhancement products. As in length and girth? Stamina? Performance? All of the above?

I guess this means that Adnan is well "enhanced?" Dang y'all! His profile reads:

"I work in 'the' industry in Los Angeles and I know many of my friends use these products. Thought this would be an interesting opportunity to reveal the truth to many men worldwide."

Sexy stuff! Adnan experiments with his junk trunk and Brit reaps the benefits. She sure knows how to pick 'em!

This is the Oddest Britney Spears Story Ever

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 20:35:00 GMT

Have you told your children not to talk to strangers? Might want to add, "Do not talk to Britney Spears" onto that. The confused/bipolar/sometimes-British popstar showed up at a Beverly Hills elementary school claiming that she was there to pick up someone else's kids. According to an eyewitness, the "scantily clad" Spears parked her car outside school just before 3pm dismissal and passed the time smoking cigarettes and talking to herself while she waited for school to let out.

The witness, who approached Spears to see if she was okay, said she appeared rambling and confused. “She said, ‘I’m here to pick up my kids.’ But then she changed her story and said, ‘They aren’t my kids; I have a new attorney, and I came to pick them up for her.’”

Adds the witness, “All I could think was, Who in their right mind would let her pick up their kids?”

As news of the popstar's presence spread, some of the kids were "freaked out" and adults quickly directed Spears to a back entrance. After the mystery children never materialized, Brit got in her car to leave but not before making one more bizarre move. She told the female eyewitness, "You’re so nice. You should give me your number. I don’t have very many friends."

This is the saddest story I've read about Spears in a long time. Is anyone going to get this girl some help? After all, she started off stealing cigarette lighters, then moved on to husbands – could stealing kids be far behind?

Britney Spears Almost Misses Deposition, Is An Idiot

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 03 Jan 2008 23:35:00 GMT

All those in favor of Britney Spears losing custody of her kids raise your hands. Wow - that's 7,324,980 more than bought Blackout.

Spears was given one final chance today to redeem herself in her custody battle with Kevin Federline, after blowing off a court-ordered deposition yesterday. And what does she do? Shows up 90-minutes late, strutting into the office of Mark Vincent Kaplan, K-Fed's lawyer, wearing a fuschia halter dress and Christian Louboutin heels. I know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but when the book is an arrogant poptart acting like an disrespectful imbecile I say she's fair game.

Apparently no deposing took place, as Kaplan called a press conference earlier today to say that the deposition had been postponed. That should give Britney some time to figure out another way to shoot herself in the (Louboutin-clad) foot.

Bad News For Literates: Lynne Spears Book Will Be Published

sweatpantsmom — Sat, 22 Dec 2007 17:05:00 GMT

I almost spilled coffee all over my Zoey 101 Birthing Guide when I read this: Lynne Spears' book will be published after all. Despite earlier reports that it had been shelved. Pop Culture Mom: A Real Story of Fame in a Tabloid World will be coming to a bookstore near you. Thank goodness, because I sure am tired of getting all my parenting advice from Alec Baldwin.

After putting the book on hold when news of Jamie Lynn's pregnancy broke, seems like publisher Thomas Nelson had a change of heart. Although, in a statement released by the Christian company they did admit that it will require Divine intervention to finish the project. "Though the book has been delayed, we believe God is at work. The story is still being written, and we are confident in His ability to turn ashes into beauty."

Is anyone else pissed that God is spending time on Lynne Spears' book? No wonder He's been too busy to help me out with my bunions.

It's Safe to Go Back to the Bookstore: Parenting Book By Britney and Jamie Lynn Spears' Mom Will Not Be Released

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 19 Dec 2007 23:40:00 GMT

Please tell me this book would have been in the fiction section: In a move no doubt prompted by news of 16-year old Jamie Lynn Spears' pregnancy, Christian publisher Thomas Nelson, Inc. announced that they would be postponing indefinitely the release of Lynne Spears' book on parenting.

Which prompts me to ask - what does Lynne Spears know about parenting? Isn't that like asking Britney to author a DMV manual, or getting her ex Kevin Federline to write a book on hygiene?

A spokesperson for the publisher would not comment on the delay and it's relation to the current Spears family crisis except to say "I can tell you that we are standing behind Lynne and supporting her decision to be with her family at this time."

“Pop Culture Mom: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World” chronicled Spears' experience raising children in the public eye and was initially scheduled to be released on Mother’s Day, 2008. Guess I'll have to buy mom the Blackout CD instead.

The Un-Christmas Dinner at Madonna's House

Karen — Tue, 18 Dec 2007 14:09:00 GMT

Recent gossip surrounding Madonna and Christmas (whether she celebrates or whether she doesn't) had me confused until I realized she is crazy. Personally I could care less if her family celebrates Christmas, since it's something I'd love to quit but only because of the running around. I wish Santa was real so I could sit back and enjoy the holiday!

This story caught my attention and I heard a scream as I finished reading it: "No Wire Hangers!"

Yes, Madonna reminds me of a ghost of Christmas past -- Joan Crawford.

Oh I hope it's not like that in their house, but this tidbit from "a friend" had me concerned:

"They entertain beautifully, but it isn't what you would call conventional,'' a friend says.

"A housekeeper will set out a great big table covered in stuff, all macrobiotic, which no one dares eat unless Madonna tucks in.

"They're all terrified of her.''

Apparently Madonna never strays from her daily 2-3 hour workout. So there's speculation she'll fit that in as well. I guess if she doesn't have to cook a giant turkey and stuffing, she's got the time.

Maybe she's on to something, but it sounds miserable to me. Hurry up Lourdes and write a book.

Search Me Baby One More Time: Britney Spears is Yahoo's Top Search Term for 2007

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 15:30:00 GMT

Apparently Child Services isn't the only one searching for Britney. Yahoo has deemed Britney Spears the top search term for 2007. And I thought it would be "naked porn boobs."

Paris Hilton came in third, edged out of the number two spot by World Wrestling Entertainment which garnered a great deal of interest due to the tragic story of Chris Benoit. The popular Japanese manga cartoon Naruto came in fourth (my two kids were responsible for 99% of those hits) and was more bootylicious than Beyoncé, who came in fifth. And who says repeat DUIs and a stint in rehab are a bad thing - they were enough to put Lindsay Lohan in sixth place, up from her 10th place slot last year.

Two losers this year: Pamela Anderson and Jessica Simpson, two previously popular terms that dropped off the list. Come on girls - run over some paparazzi and get yourself into rehab so you can get your places back in 2008.

No Christmas For Madonna's Family!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 23 Nov 2007 14:02:00 GMT

Bahumbug! Madonna cancelled Christmas and refuses to give her kids presents.

VIDEO AFTER THE READ

Guy Ritchie, Madonna's husband, said they do not allow their 7 year old son, Rocco, two year old son David and 11 year old Lourdes to celebrate the Christian holiday. Madge is a devote follower of Kabbalah, a mystical off shoot of Judaism. Guy told BANG Showbiz at the premiere of Fred Clause, "We cancelled Christmas two years ago in our household. Once we canceled it, we stopped all the presents, and once we stopped all the presents we started enjoying ourselves more."

Kabbalah followers only celebrate Jewish holy days. They don't recognize Christmas or Easter because they don't believe that Jesus is the son of God. Madonna got involved in Kabbalah in the late 90's and has spent $2.4 million dollars promoting her religion around the world in the past few years. She also changed her name to the ancient Hebrew name of Esther and has written a series of children's books based on the faith's teachings.

Well Madonna used to like Santa because she sang a song about it. And here's a Christmas present from me to you because I'm not cancelling Christmas.

Shar Jackson & K'Fed Getting Along & Putting The Kids First-Even Britney's

Sassy Smith — Thu, 15 Nov 2007 13:04:00 GMT

Shar Jackson and Kevin Federline may not be suited for each other in the romance department since they're no longer together but that doesn't mean they don't get along and put their children first.

Jackson and Federline have 2 children together, Kori, 5, and Kaleb, 3 and we all know who else K'Fed has children with. Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, get to spend time with their half siblings and get to bond with them. Both Kevin and Shar think that's important. Shar says that she and Kevin get along great and that she even helps out with Britney's boys. "We definitely make sure the kids all bond together," Jackson told reporters Tuesday night at EA's Launch For The Need For Speed Game in L.A. "I mean, they're siblings, they need each other. We're not together or anything but we're definitely still a family unit," says Jackson, the ex Moesha cast member. You know, I really give them credit, even Federline, for putting the needs of their children first and foremost.

Jackson continues, "Honestly, we're like the best of friends. Obviously, the relationship didn't work out for a reason, and we're cool with that. But we're still a part of each other's lives. And our children get to see two people who aren't together but still have a great relationship, and I think that's really important." Too bad Britney couldn't figure this stuff out.

And Shar gives Kevin alot of credit in the parenting department and says she trusts him completely with their children: "I know he's in a good place," she says, "the kids are in a good place, and I made sure from day one – I told him, 'You make sure you have our children.' "

Jackson said that she and Kevin don't really talk about the "Britney stuff" because it would be a "non-stop" conversation, so they just focus on other, more important things-the kids! At least Sean and Jayden have some stability in their little lives!
