Britney Spears has shown the world how gullible she is by giving her husband an American Express Black card, also known as the Centurion. An invitation-only card with a hefty $2,500 annual fee, the Centurion gives holders automatic first class flight upgrades on all airlines and offers access to airport clubs and personal shoppers at luxury stores. It features a personal concierge and travel agent. If you can think it up, you can probably get it with an AmEx black card.
In the 1980s tales of the "Black" no-limit American Express card were just urban legends, but Amex responded to the black card lore and decided to offer it to high rollers. Now rappers name-drop it in songs, and uber-rich people have the opportunity to go deeper in debt than they ever dreamed possible.
By giving K-Fed access to her Amex Centurion, Britney is essentially letting him empty any bank account he wishes. He has the opportunity to spend lots of money in a very short time with a single phone call. Here's what people have done with the Centurion card:
Hey maybe AmEx can help K-Fed with his rapping career! He should call them up now that the black card is in his posession. They seem capable of hooking people up with just about anything.
Seriously, though, Britney is trusting her fortune to a guy who has a custom Ferrari worth more than a quarter of a million dollars, and a Maserati worth at least six figures. He also reportedly bought a $30,000 watch without asking Britney. Now is that the kind of person you would trust with your money?
Here's Britney dropping off a mini Escalade at her recording studios for Sean Preston to play with while she's there, and Kevin getting a haircut and pumping gas. Sean Preston, 11 months, took his first steps in Las Vegas last week. So now he must be old enough to drive a car, right?
Faded Youth scopes out X17's video of Britney shopping for toys and comes to the logical conclusion that she's having a baby girl this time around. She is seen looking at frilly girl's toys in the video. I was going to just report on the fact that Britney's having a girl, but then I found this awesome video taken on August 5th when she can't get into her car and has to ask the paparrazi if it's hers!
There must be a lot of black BMW SUVs in Britney's neighborhood.

Britney cleaned up and wore flattering clothing when she was in Vegas last week to support K-Fed's supposed music career. This weekend she was spotted out shopping with her family while wearing a long printed dress that was somewhat classy-looking. She even had manny Perry in tow, suggesting he was the influence behind her cleaned-up image yet again.
That seems to have been short-lived, however, as Britney was seen out the next day wearing weird low-riding plaid shorts and a too-tight top that exposed her pregnant belly.
X17Online says that Britney was wearing a bathing suit underneath her top, which explains why her boobs look split down the middle. Regardless she's back to the same 'ol Britney, at least for a day.
I watched a show on the paparrazi on German TV this weekend. It focused on British paparrazi, and the lengths they go to get an exclusive shot. The pictures that really sell are of celebrities looking like shit with pimples, no makeup, and bad hair. They said that Victoria Beckham is never caught out without makeup on. Britney should take a lesson from Posh and try to be consistent with her cleaned-up look. Maybe that's why Britney is photographed so much, though. She does make people feel a lot better about themselves.
The thing is, Britney probably thinks this outfit looks good. I mean look at what she wore for her primetime TV interview.
Here are pictures of Britney out on August 4th and 5th. What a difference a day makes. [via]
Remember that baby clothing venture that I was making fun of Britney for forgetting about just a couple of days ago? It seems she hasn't dropped it after all. Word is she asked Charlie Sheen, who launched his own "Sheen Kids" line just when his estranged wife decided to air a bunch of dirt on him, if she can collaborate with him for help launching her own line of baby clothes:
That's smart of Britney to get help from someone who already has a line of children's clothing out. It's rare of her to ask for advice and she should be commended.
Meanwhile Anna Nicole Smith has asked Britney to hang out with her. She's posted a message on her stupid video diary telling Britney she'd love to be her friend:
Smith continues, "I think you're totally cool, and I think we're going to have our babies about the same time."
Smith is pretty dumb if she thinks that Britney's due date is just around the same time as hers. Maybe she'll get some free baby clothing out of the deal, though. She'll need the help since her website isn't really bringing in the subscribers.

Kevin Federline has been quoted talking about a magazine he and Britney plan on launching that will counter the gossip and fake news made up by the tabloids:
This sounds like one of those things you talk about with your spouse when you've had a few, like "Wouldn't it be great if I started my own business?" and then they go and tell your friends about it when you haven't really thought it through and didn't want the news to come out.
I really doubt Britney and Kevin are clever enough to harness the talent to start a huge venture like this. Britney couldn't even accept help getting prepared for a primetime TV interview, so this unlikely to happen.
Remember when Britney was said to be creating her own line of baby clothing and even took out a trademark for it? What happened with that?
She's suing a bunch of tabloids from overseas in the hopes of getting some cash, so that's probably where she got this half-baked idea.
I already published these pictures of Britney at Kevin's Pure video shoot, but the only other recent pictures are blurry ones of Britney driving around talking on her cell phone, which seem too lame to post.
A very pregnant and much classier-looking Britney Spears made an appearance at Pure nightclub at Ceasar's Palace in Las Vegas to support her husband Kevin Federline's video shoot. She looked quite presentable in a horizontal-striped top and her black hair.
Britney was also photographed in Vegas with a guy rumored to be her new "manager," or maybe just her agent, Wililam Morris agent Jason Trawick.
Both times she looked rather good. That may be some kind of record for her.
Britney had a supposed pregnancy scare on July 15th, when it is said that she went into false labor and had to be rushed to the hospital. A "friend" is quoted as blaming the incident on Britney's poor nutrition, saying she wasn't eating enough vegetables. If you take a look in Kevin's cart in these pictures of him shopping, you can see why a gossip magazine writer could come to that conclusion. Celebrity Baby Blog mentions that it sounds like a completely bogus reason for false labor.

Britain's The Sun is not a very reliable source, but I couldn't pass this up: Kevin Federline is planning to hammer yet another nail into the coffin of Britney's dormant career by asking her to sing over his "rapping" on his latest album:
Pals say rapper Kev, 28, is “very nervous” and desperate that Playing With Fire is a hit.
So he has delayed next month’s launch to add the track with pregnant pop babe Britney, 24.
A source close to Kev said: “He will be rapping over her singing.
“But people are warning it could be a bad career move for Britney.”
I won't believe this is true until I read it in another more reputable source, because K-Fed hasn't been around Britney and he doesn't seem humble enough to ask for her help yet.
Kevin was said to have passed up Britney's offer to work with her talented producers on his album a few months ago, and if the crap he's released on his myspace is any indication, it was a dumb move. He now seems to be working with Britney's producers, though, and wants to beat Justin Timberlake on the charts.
Kevin is said to be totally obsessed with being better than his wife's famous ex:
Whatever, K-Fed. Timberlake is a mediocre talent, but he can still rap and sing much better than you ever will, even with the best help in the business. You really suck and you're dragging your stupid tiger-loving wife down with you. Given the fact that she still hasn't dumped your ass, she kind of deserves it.

Britney Spears was spotted with yet another bodyguard taking over manny duty. This unknown guard bears a striking resemblance to a bloated Ben Affleck and was pushing the Graco stroller while Britney chatted on the phone. She looked relatively cleaned up and presentable for an average day out.
Meanwhile Kevin Federline was seen toting a trendy piece of exercise equipment, the BOLA trainer, which some suggest is a rude ass hint to Britney. They have those things at my gym and I think you're supposed to balance on them and train your abs, but I have no idea since I generally avoid exercise equipment that makes me look foolish. (I have a theory that trainers capitalize on this and make people do dumb shit they would be too embarassed or confused to do on their own.)
Kevin will be "rapping" at the Teen choice awards on August 20th. It will be surprising if he performs "Papazoa," since he said recently that the entire song was a joke meant to set peoples' expectations for his talent low.
Britney has posted a new "stream of consciousness" poem-thing on her website in praise of tigers - yes tigers. She expounds on the wild beasts in a segment that's reminiscent of an elementary school essay:
In some ways, people are a lot like animals. We all hunger for the same things. Love, lust, danger, warmth and adventure. Like people, animals all have their own rythm to life. I'm mesmirized [sic] by tigers. Their eyes, their stripes, their constant quest of [sic] survival. They almost have a sense of mysteriousness about them. They pull you in and make it difficult to look away. They make you wonder what is behind their gaze. A sense of eerie awe comes over you in their presence. The fear they give you when you pass them is stunning. Behold the beauty of the tiger.
I'm mesmirized by Britney's excellent prose. I would wonder why one of her handlers didn't edit this or advise her against posting it, but she went on national television in short shorts with hair looking like a rat's nest, so this little poem is a minor indiscretion.
Here is Britney and Ben Affleck, I mean her bodyguard/manny that's not Perry:
Pictures from x17online and Oh No They Didn't.
Britney Spears is staying in a hotel while her husband, Kevin Federline, is at the couples' mansion with his ex, Shar Jackson and his kids from their relationship:
A friend reveals: "Things are far from rosy. They're trying to make it work but there are still issues that need addressing.
"Britney's got to be calm for the birth of her second child, so she's taking time out from their problems and giving herself some space."
To make matters worse, Shar and Kevin are rumored to be planning a duet together! Britney was said to be enraged a few months ago when Shar recorded her own version of Britney's "Chaotic," with Kevin's blessing. This latest news had got to annoy her. How much will it take before she breaks up with him and reclaims her life?
Britney and Kevin were said to be using a $1,000 an hour relationship counselor, but how much is it going to help if they're never together?
In Justin Timberlake's new GQ article, he either slams or supports Britney depending on which quote the press wants to focus on. He said he was dissapointed that she didn't stick up for him after their breakup, but that she deserves more lenient treatment by the press:
"I feel bad for her. We all make mistakes. We all came from the same school, with Christina, myself, Britney."
It doesn't sound like Timberlake is going to come to Britney's rescue. Now that Perry is helping her out again, maybe she'll get the courage she needs to stand on her own. I'm not going to hold my breath, though.

So my friend didn't figure out how to make posts properly, and neither did the guy who e-mailed all the bloggers saying he was available for help while we were on vacation.
Anyway I'm back from the south of France, which is beautiful and all, but take my advice and don't use Mapquest to get to your idyllic destination with your surly hosts near Johnny Depp's house. Stick to the highways because those windy lines on the map are really perilous mountain passes that aren't meant for anything but arrogant French drivers in tiny Renaults.
Also back is gorgeous helpful Perry, manny to the stars. He was spotted driving Britney to get some fast food. Sean Preston was not in the car, so it must be true that Perry has given up manny duty in favor of his original job as super-hot personal security and arm candy.
We thought Perry was out of the picture when it was reported that Kevin disliked him and said he shouldn't care for Sean Preston. K-Fed was also said to be enraged that Sean Preston was calling Perry "Da Da" and generally bonding with the father he never had. The baby-Bjorn wearing Naval Academy graduate was said to be on per-diem security duty, which spelled curtains for him in our book, but look - he's driving Britney to McDonalds!
Britney said in her upcoming Harper's Bazaar interview that she can't wait to get back in shape after the birth of her second child in September. She says she's "going to get really intense with it" so she can prepare to perform again. In that case we hope she had a McDonald's salad and skipped the fries and soft drink.
Thanks for hanging in there during my brief vacation away from the Internet that followed my one month stay in America, aka shopping heaven.
I would also like to thank Ritu at Celebguru for letting us "borrow" her content during our vacation. I picked Celebguru to pilfer from as I enjoy Ritu's commentary and think she does a great job of covering the celebrity news and gossip.
Welcome back, Perry, and welcome back Celebitchy.

I know all you nasty guys out there might be getting eager to see Britney Spears’ naked pictures. The issue of Harpers Bazaar magazine having her naked pics and interview will hit the newsstands on July 25th.
In the interview, Britney said that she is proud of her husband Kevin Federline who has been working really hard since she was pregnant for the first time. Britney has a ten months old son Sean and is pregnant with another baby.
Britney says that she is very close to her son and he is simply a rocker kid. Brit further added that she was a bit paranoid when she was pregnant with her first baby as everything was new to her but she is enjoying things now. Britney is also planning to get back in shape soon as she is getting desperate to hit the stage and studio again. She plans to do a song with hubby Kevin too.

There were reports that Britney was planning a "Chaotic 2" to further pound her stardom into the ground, but that was yet another piece of fake news embellished by the British tabloids. They always put some bit of UK slang in there to give it away.
Perez Hilton called Britney's rep, who denied that Britney was dumb enough to make another "Chaotic". Plus Kevin would have to be around long enough to make the film.
Just like the rumor that Britney was going to give birth in Namibia, this originated with the satirical site "Postcards from the Pug Bus" and was picked up as real news, with fake quotes added for good measure, by the tabloids.
Here is K-Fed shopping for junk food on July 3rd. He looks awful. It was so much nicer to check out pictures of cutie Perry Taylor. [via] Oh - the gossip rags are reporting that Sean Preston was calling manny Perry "Da Da" and that's part of the reason why K-Fed had him canned.
Britney Spears claims the glowing happy pictures that came out in US Weekly of her posing with Kevin were, like, totally stolen. She's said to be "evaluating legal options" against the magazine. You know that Britney released the photos herself after her "Dateline" debacle, and is just saying that to make it seem like they're really stolen:
Her record label Jive said the photos were stolen and that Spears and husband Kevin Federline were "evaluating all of their legal options".
The statement said the photos were stolen by "an unknown perpetrator" and printed by Us Weekly magazine without the couple's "knowledge or consent".
We seriously doubt this is true because the pictures are all cute and seem to come at a time when she needs good publicity and wants to make it seem as if everything is fine in her marriage. It's also seems like too much of a coincidence when compared with the recently leaked Brangelina baby shower pics.
Reader Missy notes that Britney and Kevin may look happy and privileged in these pictures taken on a private jet, but that Kevin is suspiciously hiding his ring finger. Someone must have "forgotten" to wear their wedding ring.
Britney Spears' gorgeous bodyguard and sometimes manny, 28 year-old Naval Academy graduate Perry Taylor, has been removed from his close position with the troubled pop star and is now working security detail on a daily as-needed basis. He was helpful, attractive, and friendly, and K-Fed is said to have asked Britney to fire him after he heard about how Perry was changing Sean Preston's diapers and serving as Britney's unofficial nanny:
Obviously K-Fed is still feeding his friends quotes to give to the rags, because the source was careful to say that he wasn't jealous or anything. Oh of course not. We've never seen Kevin wearing a Baby Bjorn, but Perry donned the baby carrier with pride and a cute button smile.
People were unsure about Perry's identity at first, initially confusing him with Britney's record producer, J.R. Rotem, with whom he bears a resemblance. Perry's identity soon came out, though, and he became an Internet and press phenomenon.
Perry was touted as the reason behind Britney's cleaned-up appearance in the absence of K-Fed, and people speculated that she was having an affair. Perry's mom put those rumors to rest by telling the press that her son had a hot live-in girlfriend.
Everyone from the NY Times to U.S. News and World report discussed the merits of male nannys, or the "manny." We couldn't get enough of Perry.
Then, last week, Britney was seen out alone and with new jet-black hair after her "Dateline" debacle. It seemed the rumors of Kevin's dissatisfaction with being upstaged by the help were true, and that Britney had obeyed her do-nothing husband and got rid of the best thing that happened to her since the birth of her baby.
We haven't seen the last of Perry Taylor, though. We hope that Angelina is watching this young guy's rise to fame, and will hire him to soften up the image of her security force while lending an extra set of hands to care for Shiloh and Zahara.
Thanks to Kylie on MySpace for reminding me about Perry.
Here are pictures of helpful Perry during his employment with Britney. He's been seen buying flowers for Britney, and he even holds the car door open for her.
I was right that Britney dyed her own hair black. I said at the time "Britney probably popped into the local CVS to make her own decision to dye her hair this jet black color." This weeks Us Weekly details Britney's rash decision to go black:
Inset pictures in the article say that "Spears called Oscar Blandi Salon's colorist, Christopher Cillione, on June 29, but he was fully booked," and that Spears "plans to go back to her natural color, light brown, after she has the baby."
There are several things I don't believe about this article. The first is that Britney called her doctor to ask if it was ok. Who does that? She is said to be overly concerned after all the problems with SP, and this could be true, but I doubt it. The second is that she used some kind of temporary "vegetable dye" color as is reported by her publicist. If that was true, she would have gone back to blonde for the Bazaar photo shoot. It's also not true that she had blonde extensions added for the Bazaar shoot, because we have the pictures and her hair is completely black.
In Touch asks if Britney's trying to copy Angelina with her new hair color:
Britney's hair does look better black and in a bob, but you can tell it's a DIY job and not professionally done. It's one blah color and lacks the slight variations and highlights a stylist could add that would make it look more natural. She needs to get it fixed in a month or so and add some subtle darker highlights.

Yesterday I mentioned the US Weekly article about Britney's consultation with her christian life coach, and how she has taken Kevin back. The article makes it seem as if it's this glorious reunion and that everything will be fine in their troubled relationship after the vacation photo op they took. This is in complete contrast to other reports we read that had Britney and Kevin sleeping in separate hotel rooms and avoiding each other on that same trip.
According to the source, the fresh start stems from a four-hour conversation encouraged by Spears' newly aquired Christian life coach, which took place shortly before the Lauer interview (taped June 9.) One hot topic: the sharing and selling of personal details about the couple to tabloid reporters by Federline's intimates. "Kevin acknowledged that he blabbed info to his friends, claiming it was harmless and he had no idea they would talk," says the source. "He promised never to do it again."
Kevin also promised to spend four to five hours each day with Sean Preston to give Britney a break. Now that Perry's gone he better take up some of the slack.
This glowing report of their renewed love must be one Kevin's peeps giving good news to the rags for once after Britney told Kevin to stop feeding his friends stories to sell to the press. There's no way everything is fine in their relationship or that their misguided love with conquer all.
Britney may dress trashy, but she lives in more style then the majority of the planet will experience in its lifetime. It's kind of incongruous to see Britney in a tie-dye and Kevin in camo pants in a private jet, and it reminds us how privileged these people are, and why we make fun of them in the first place. These pictures are from Breatheheavy.com, and are said to be "stolen from Britney's private album" by Us Weekly.
Britney was set to do a pregnant semi-nude Harper's Bazaar spread just like Demi Moore, but she pulled it. Someone sent the airbrushed pictures to BritneySpy.com, and now they're all over. Why did Britney pull the pictures? She probably was advised against it by her "christian life coach," who is also said to be behind Britney and Kevin's recent reconciliation.
Now that I'm in the states I have the mixed blessing of being able to read the tabloids, and will report on Us Weekly's glowing coverage of Kevin and Britney's reunion shortly.
In the mean time, here are Britney's Harper's Bazaar photos. They're trashy, but that's just how she comes off anyway. Add a shag rug and pose her nude and you just magnify that quality. Also, Sean Preston is cute and all, but doesn't he have any other expression? He always seems to look the same. Maybe that's how he copes.
Thanks to Just Jared for these photos.
X17 loves to point out Britney's foibles, and their latest blog post tries to rile everyone up with a picture of Britney in the back of her Escalade holding Sean Preston. We don't see the car taking off with Sean Preston in Britney's lap, but it's implied.
Britney probably does all sorts of things that put her baby in danger, and maybe she's only caught a fraction of the time. Now that she's got a bad record, though, people are blaming her for things she hasn't even done. What do you think?
Like we said, we may not have seen everything – but this is what we saw. What do you see here?
Commentors are pretty annoyed that X17 doesn't bother to show Britney put Sean in his carseat, but did she do it? You can see the seat in the back.
Here are some more pictures from the series. You can see clearer unwatermarked versions in our image gallery from yesterday.
Britney is planning to sue 8 different tabloids for reporting that her marriage is in trouble, but she's not going to do it from the states, where celebrities are considered public personalities and are fair game by law - she's filed suit in Ireland, where her chances of winning are much higher:
Spears is to sue the National Enquirer, based in Florida, for reports that her marriage to Kevin Federline was at an end. She is also suing seven other US and British publications that repeated the claims.
Foreign claimants have long been attracted to London because of the strict libel laws, but Belfast offers the prospect of high payouts, faster justice and lower costs.
Paul Tweed, senior partner at Johnson’s solicitors, who has been instructed by Spears, said he was also being consulted by Houston, Paula Abdul, the singer, and Steve Bing, film producer and father of Liz Hurley’s son Damian...
One law firm, which represents American celebrities suing in London, said: “They come to the UK because it is a good place to sue. In the US there is a public figure defence which means that if you have celebrity status you can’t sue anybody in America unless you can show that they acted from malice.”
Paul Tweed, senior partner at Johnson’s solicitors, who has been instructed by Spears, said he was also being consulted by Houston, Paula Abdul, the singer, and Steve Bing, film producer and father of Liz Hurley’s son Damian.
Belfast has similar libel laws to England, but waiting lists are shorter and the costs can be 75% lower. Many cases go to juries, which make higher awards. In one Belfast case Barney Eastwood, the boxing promoter, received an award of £450,000, the highest in Irish legal history.
If an American publication does not have assets in Britain, Tweed sues distributors and website hosts. He is currently taking action against Yahoo!
It doesn't seem fair that celebrities can just file suit from England or Ireland in order to get around US libel laws, but major corporations avoid paying taxes by incorporating overseas. Exploiting tax and legal loopholes is just one of the ways that people hold onto their undeserved millions.
Here is Britney with Sean Preston and her mom and sister outside of Nobu. K-Fed was there, too, but is not pictured. There was supposedly a paparrazi fight as photographers jockied for pictures of the pregnant star. TMZ has a video of it, with people saying "back off" and swearing, but it doesn't seem as exciting as they make it out to be. We were hoping for some punches and hair-pulling.
Pictures and tabloid story [via]
Everyone thought it was amazing how gorgeous a cleaned-up K-Fed looked when the pictures from his Item Magazine spread came out. He kind of looked like a used car salesman to me. (If you still think he's cute, just check out these pictures of him lounging around the pool with his gut hanging out during his PR vacation with Britney.)
K-Fed is the new face of the Blue Marlin Clothing Company's Five Star Vintage Clothing Line. Guess they don't mind having their brand associated with a guy whose only claim to fame is fathering lots of children and starring in the cringe-worthy "Chaotic".
Christina Aguilera has made another dig at Britney's husband, K-Fed, saying that her husband is reliable and "isn't trying to put out an album" or be in the spotlight:
Aguilera felt the need to bring everyone's attention to the fact that Britney was not at the MTV Music Awards this year. She said something about wanting to chat with her, but she was really highlighting how hot she still is, while Britney has let herself go and is focusing on her role as a neglectful mother. Aguilera called Britney's wedding to K-Fed two years ago "pathetic" at the time, and she was unfortunately right.
Some of these pictures of K-Fed's Item Magazine shoot you've seen before, but many are new. If K-Fed can clean up, maybe Britney can, too.

Britney released a clip of a new song on her website called "Rebellion." It looks like it was up briefly and was removed, because BreatheHeavy.com says it was the second update and was under her poem, but it's no longer available.
The lyrics reveal the fact that she's pissed off at the paparrazi and press and thinks that she can make a noun into a verb by repeating it a lot. On her site before the download link she wrote "This is for everyone who thinks they know me... I forgive you."
Download a 50 second clip of Rebellion (mp3)
It's got a wannabe hip-hop vibe and it's pretty good.
Be wary of others
The ones closest to you (oh)
The poison they feed you
And the voodoo that they do
But in rebellion
There's a sparkle of truth
Don't just stand there
Do what you got to do
You'll find it in rebellion
You'll finally start breathing
They're not believing what they're seeing
'Cause you're rebellion
You'll find it so compelling
With everyone yelling
'Cause your soul, you're not selling
'Cause you're rebellion
You're not selling your soul, Britney, just some crappy pictures that no one wants. It's also clear that you're pissed off at Kevin, because he's slowly poisoning you. We get it.
You think you're rebellion by dyeing your hair black, don't you?
Lyrics and Britney mp3 from BreatheHeavy.com.

Britney Spears realized what a trashy loser people thought she was after her horrendous "Dateline" interview, in which she refused help from her publicists and didn't even have a hairdresser or makeup artist help her get ready. The pregnant singer chewed gum the whole time and bawled her eyes out when questioned about the parparrazi. She seemed arrogant and defensive and looked cheap in a super-short outfit.
Once Britney heard how poorly the interview was received she tried to do damage control by having professional portraits done. She shopped the pictures around to gossip mags at the sky-high price of $200,000. Britney called the gossip rags "trash" in her interview, and they showed her who was the trashy one by refusing to buy the pictures.
The only magazine willing to carry Britney's "classy" pictures and an interview was OK! Magazine - and they snatched them up at the bargain basement price of $5,000. When asked about the story and cheap photos, OK! said "Who doesn't love a discount?"
Britney, you're the discount. Get your ass in gear and get some media training.

The trainwreck that is Britney Spears just hit another small child left wandering on the tracks by its bad mother. She went on national primetime television without consulting her publicist, got rid of Perry, the one good thing that's happened to her since she busted a knee and hooked up with K-Fed, and dyed her trademark blonde hair black.
No one was with Britney when she made her typically ignorant and arrogant comments to Matt Lauer on "Dateline." She brushed off her publicists, and didn't have a stylist or makeup artist help her get ready. It was all too evident:
Spears, when asked about Kevin Federline being with a pregnant Shar Jackson when they first met, shot back, "Julia Roberts' husband had a pregnant wife when he hooked up with Julia, but no one ever talked about that!" Spears wore flip-flops, a see-through tank and micro-mini jeans. Reps tried to control the damage on Friday. "They asked NBC not to release footage to places like E!," said a source. Asked why Spears was on her own for the interview, Sloane Zelnick said, "Britney is a grown-up and makes her own decisions."
Britney probably popped into the local CVS to make her own decision to dye her hair this jet black color. Everyone thought it was a poor wig disguise at first, but now it's clear that this is Britney's own hair. (plus extensions.)
The poor girl must have thought she was trying to escape from the paparrazi "Fugitive" style, but she just managed to make herself a more interesting target.
Readers noted after seeing the pictures of Britney and Sean Preston riding around in a golf cart last week that the tot looked sunburned. Yesterday's photographs show his red little face and head. Britney would say "stuff happens with kids," but it doesn't usually happen if you take a little time for precautions. Britney may make her own decisions, but they affect her child and she needs a lot of help.
Update: Britney is said to have turned down a $3.6 million deal to be the new face of Kleenex in a bid for the tissue company to cash in on her tearful down and out image. The source is some British rag, though, and it sounds like something that is completely fabricated.

Earlier in the week it was reported that Kevin wanted Britney to fire her gorgeous helpful bodyguard/manny, 28 year-old naval academy graduate, Perry Taylor. Britney may have followed his advice, because she was photographed out without Perry in a NY Mall yesterday.
A source close to the pop star is quoted in Britain's The Sun newspaper as saying: "Kevin didn't like seeing Perry holding his son while out with Britney. He instructed her to drop him before their reunion last week where
they decided to get their marriage back on track. Kevin was uncomfortable with Perry being so close to Britney and his son. He felt she was trying to taunt him."
Perry has now reportedly been told by the 'Toxic' singer he will only be employed on an hourly basis when he is needed as opposed to the round-the-clock shifts he did before.
Kevin would tell Britney to get rid of a guy that's ten times more helpful than he is. He wants to control her and make sure she doesn't leave his sorry ass. It looks like Perry's fifteen minutes of fame, and his steady job, are over. Maybe if he did it half-assed like Kevin, Britney's husband wouldn't feel threatened by him and wouldn't have asked her to fire him.
Britney and Kevin were said to have vacationed together at a resort in Miami this weekend, but the reality is that they avoided each other and stayed in separate houses at their resort.
Kevin has new gigs this week as the face of Blue Marlin clothing company and campaigning for a new Virgin Mobile charity "penny" drive. It's really a publicity stunt for Virgin's one-cent text messaging offer. Now that he's getting his own "work" maybe he'll get cocky enough about it to finally set Britney free.
Here are pictures of Kevin Federline at a Miami resort on 6/18, and 6/19. There are also pictures of Kevin signing the petition to keep the penny in circulation, and Britney shopping at a NY Mall on 6/21. Britney and Kevin are shown on the balcony at their Miami resort. Pictures [via] [via] [via]
The vacation is still on, but we're back posting sooner than expected because it's just not work to us to talk trash about celebrities.
In Britney's Dateline Interview she comes off defensive, rude, and dumb. She's even chewing gum, just like when she was announcing her pregnancy on Letterman! At one point she breaks down and cries when Lauer asks her "what do you think it will take to get the paparrazi to leave you alone?" While I feel sorry for her and don't blame her for crying, she didn't handle the first part of the questioning well at all.
She says of the incident where Child Protective Services visited her for Sean Perston's high chair fall that "they didn't have to come, the doctor there made them come because I didn't bring my doctor there with me." The doctor there made them come because her child was injured and they're required by law to contact Children and Family Services. That's idiotic to suggest the reason was because she didn't bring another doctor. She seems not to understand that is how CPS works.
When asked by Lauer if she tripped on her pants during the near baby-drop fiasco, she says, "I think, uh, actually, I didn't trip on anything, there was, a NY street, it was cobblestone... I think it was mixture of so many paparrazi and just how the road was all messed up, me just trying to get in the car." The road was perfecly flat and paved and not cobblestone at all. I live in Europe where there are real cobblestone streets and people manage to walk around holding all sorts of shit without stumbling and falling.
No fucking mention of the highball glass she was carrying at the time, and no admission of even partial guilt or regret for the incident. She blows it off, saying "accidents happen" and using the ridiculous example of her brother's multiple motorcycle accident at age 13 as a comparison. "Stuff happens with kids," she explains. Britney, you fucking idiot, you have total responsibility for your baby's safety and he's not the same as an adolescent boy.
She says she was crying afterwards because people were trying to take her picture, not because she almost hurt Sean. She also cals a woman ignorant for trying to take her picture at the time. "Ignorant" is not an adjective Britney should introduce into a conversation.
"There will be plenty more oopses, I'm human." Yes you are, and you're richer than 99.99% of the world. You can fucking hire someone to help you talk to the press and act like you actually take responsibility for your actions and care about your infant son.
"You have to realize that we're people, and we need privacy, and we need respect. Those are just things that you have to have as a human." This is your job, Britney, figure it out. The paparrazi are terrible and all but you need to find a better way to cope.
She does seem to love Sean even though she won't admit to any guilt or responsibility for his frequent safety mishaps.
Later in the interview she's in her element when talking about her music and her work, and she explains her brief involvement with the Kabbalah cult well. She has a new clothing line for children coming out, called "Baby Soul Rock and Roll," and she seems quite excited and happy about it.
While things seem to be looking up for her, she needs professional media coaching and she should never have done this interview.
Here is the relevant part of the interview:
This is part four in the series. Here are the earlier parts of Britney's interview:
Britney's Dateline Interview Part 1 of 4
Britney's Dateline Interview Part 2 of 4

And here she is with a drink in one hand and Sean Preston on her lap on a golf cart in Hollywood on June 8th:

A satirical site called Postcards from the Pug Bus carried a pretty funny and mildly convincing article that proported that Britney told Matt Lauer in her upcoming interview that she's going to give birth in Namibia just like Angelina. Postcards from the Pug Bus is like The Onion and makes up funny shit that kind of sounds true.
The article was picked up and run as a real story by China Daily, Playfuls, and even Toronto's Fashion Monitor! It was then covered in I'm not Obsessed, The Dark Hat, and Best Week Ever Blog. I'm not Obsessed ran it with the title "This cannot be true," and Best Week Ever could have known it was fake since they've run other stories from Pug Bus. (Thanks to WeSmirch for making this "research" extra easy.)
Britney would make a dumb-ass decision like that, and with yesterday's news that she changed her baby on the floor of a Victoria's Secret, it's easy to believe.
The first half of the Pug Bus article contains real details about the interview that are already known. The quotes that follow about Namibia give away the fact that this is made up:
Ms. Spears also said that Namibia reminds her of California "because it's on the ocean and there's lots of sand. So if Sean Preston fell off his swing and landed on his head, there's less chance he would be hurt and we'd have those snoops from child welfare up our butts all the time."
Finally, said Ms. Spears, "I heard that Namibia has laws that let celebrities say whether or not journalists are allowed in the country. That's so important, even more important than getting the same villa that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt had."
The China Daily and Playfuls articles contained all these improbable quotes, but the Fashion Monitor runs it without any quotes, making it seem like pure delicious fact.
There's a new video of pregnant Britney at the beach that you can access at BreatheHeavy.com, where we also snagged the header image.

Britney changed little SP's diaper at a Victoria's Secret lingerie store. She didn't try to be discreet by using one of the plushy ottomans in the dressing room and just plopped him down next the cash register. When she was done she handed the dirty diaper to the woman at the counter to throw away for her!
She could have changed his diaper in the car, a nearby bathroom, or in the dressing room, but instead she used the floor in a high traffic area of the store. How "country" of her.
Britney shocked diners at a restaurant in early March by changing Sean Preston's diaper - right on the table in front of other guests trying to enjoy their meals.
Perry may be hot, but he's a novice in the baby department and what Britney needs is an all-purpose baby coach to advise her on safety and etiquette issues. In other words - she needs some class!
She says the tabloids are too hard on her and that they've gone too far, but she continues to make deliberate dumb mistakes.
Here are screencaps from Britney's interview with Matt Lauer, which airs in its entirety tonight on Dateline. Thanks to BreatheHeavy.com for these photos and the composite image above. They also have portions of Britney's upcoming interview transcribed.
Maddona is pissed off at Britney because she showed some sense for once and rejected the money pit Kabbalah cult.
But not long ago, Spears publicly ditched the mystical offshoot of Judaism, writing on her Web site: “I no longer study Kabbalah, my baby is my religion.” Spears, who was raised a Baptist, has allegedly been consulting with a “Christian Life Coach” about her troubled marriage to Kevin Federline.
“Madonna spent months teaching Britney the Kabbalah system and splashed out thousands on the ancient scripture for her,” according to a source quoted by Virgin.net, which is further reporting that Madonna is demanding that Spears return the twelfth-century book on Kabbalah that she gave her as a wedding present. Madonna’s rep had no comment by press time, but the source said: “She feels she has wasted time, money and precious gifts on Brit.”
A few years ago I was dating this uber-hot but kind of slow guy. I had misgivings about him, but it was when I found out he was involved with Amway I realized I had to bolt.
Cult members are compelled to convert everyone they know. It's the ultimate insult to tell them that you're not interested in their "religion."
Madonna tried to tie her fading star to Britney a few years ago, and was flattering herself by thinking she could mold the pop star in her own crazy image. Now Madonna may have a semblance of a career back while all Britney has is her very public misery, but at least Britney didn't get sucked into a cult. Madonna thinks she has all the answers, but she leans on Kabbalah like a crutch while they get rich off her gullibility. Let's hope Britney gets her life on track soon. There are no quick fixes to enlightenment, but standing up for yourself and finding your own way is a good start.

X17online, which seems to be the official blog of the X17 paparrazi photo agency, claims to have an exclusive with pictures that show Britney getting into the front seat of her gas-guzzling Escalade with nine month-old Sean Preston. As commentors note, it's impossible to tell if she sits with SP on her lap as she has so eloquently defended as a "country" practice, or if she climbs into the back of the huge vehicle to put him safely in his carseat. Given Britney's reputation, it's hard to speculate whether she would have learned yet that people are watching her and that she needs to be careful, or if she would behave according to stereotype and continue to make dumb decisions that threaten her baby's safety. We're not sure, and are posting these pictures to get your comments.
Here is also a video preview of Britney's Dateline interview, which airs in part on Thursday morning on the Today Show and can be seen in full in a special that evening. She seems really pitiful, and I wish she would just lay low for a while and try to get her identity back rather than granting an interview. Sure she wants people to know that everything is just fine with her sad relationship, but she can't keep it together and shouldn't be talking to the press.
Britney's boyguard and inexperienced manny, Perry Taylor, wanted to become a US Navy Seal, but a bad stint in the Navy caused by too much boozing and carousing squashed his dreams and forced him to take a career in security:
Perry may have been a drinker like a lot of young people, but he's still ten times better than K-Fed, whose only brush with responsibility was working as a back up dancer and trying to start a career in a field he's completely inadequate in.
Britney and K-Fed were photographed together for the first time in weeks. K-Fed looked tired and uncomfortable with his family, in contrast to the calm and slightly bemused look that Perry Taylor sports when he's helping Britney with Sean Preston, which isn't even in his job description. Perry seems like a stand up guy with a regular past that isn't too embarassing.
Here are Perry's family pictures, which are a bit blurry and not terribly interesting, but you might want to see them. Thanks to BritneySpears.nu for the story and pictures.

In an interview with Matt Lauer to air in Thursday night, Britney defends driving with her baby on her lap, saying that she often sat on her dad's lap as a child while he was behind the wheel, and that the practice is "country":
"I did it with my dad. I'd sit on his lap and I drive," the Louisiana native said. "We're country."
In this case "country" is code for "stupid," which is sure to piss off non city-dwellers everywhere.
Britney also defends her marriage with the absent Kevin, saying it's awesome that he's not living in the basement:
Opening up in an interview with NBC's Matt Lauer to be aired Thursday on the Today show and Dateline, the 24-year-old singer says it's not true that Federline is living in the basement, as some media have reported.
The paparazzi have "crossed the line a little bit" by showing her in private moments, she added. She also defended her parenting skills, saying, "I know I'm a good mom."
It's not true that Kevin's living in the basement because he's sleeping on a friend's couch in an apartment in Studio City, California and hasn't seen Britney in weeks. In her book that's awesome because Kevin is even more "country" than she is and she's afraid he'll endanger Sean Preston if he comes back to smoke up the house again with his pals.
It's sad that she thinks the paparrazi is the cause of her emotional state, but she should blame Kevin for that, not the hoards of photographers that follow her everywhere.

Yes, I know I already talked about these people today, but this is big news - it means that K-Fed realizes that his cash flow is about to be seriously restricted, and is resorting to a backup plan of living beyond his means like an average mallrat wannabe rapper from the 'burbs:
The fledgling rapper is said to have been spotted in a Malibu shopping mall picking up endless credit card applications forms - further fuelling rumours the couple are heading for the divorce courts.
Federline has also reportedly told friends he is planning to borrow as much cash as he can and then leave his unsuspecting spouse - who is pregnant with their second child - having to pay half of it back.
A source told Britain’s The Sun newspaper: "He realised without Britney he has hardly any money coming in to sustain his flash lifestyle.
"So he is planning for the future and figures Britney will pick up the bill anyway when the divorce comes through because they will have to split everything - including debts."
Ok, so Kevin has a somewhat smarter plan - he hopes to stick Britney with the bill during the divorce. That means the big D-Day is coming, people!
Of course Kevin is said to be jealous of gorgeous helpful Perry, who is getting a lot more positive press as Britney's bodyguard than K-Fed ever did as her deadbeat husband. He must be reading TMZ like the rest of us, because he can't get jealous of Perry in person since he's never been seen with him. He aso hasn't been photographed with Britney in over two months.
Here are some scans from Star courtesy of BreatheHeavy.com. You can read Star's article about Perry that's similar to news we've already posted. He's a great guy and is changing Sean Preston's diapers, helping Britney around the house, and generally pissing off absent Kevin.
Britian's The Sun, which we do not trust, is reporting that Britney and Kevin spent the weekend together and that Britney is upset that Kevin wants to make a movie that glorifies his psuedo-gansta past, similar to "8 Mile," except "8 Mile" was moderately accurate:
K-Fed, 28, plans to portray himself in the same mould as Eminem in 8 Mile — a tough rapper who’s risen from the streets.
But Britney, 24, fears he is going to cash in by dishing the dirt on their troubled relationship. A source said: “Britney has heard that Federline is working on a script and trying to get funding for the film.
She is really upset. Britney fears Kevin just wants to promote himself at her expense to further his career.”
The couple have grown increasingly distant. But Britney, above, is desperate to save the marriage before their second child arrives in the autumn.
She and Kevin spent the night in a hotel suite in Laguna Beach, California, at the weekend — and continued talking the next day.
Now, if Britney and Kevin spent the weekend together, why do they mention it as an afterthought? They haven't been photographed together in over two months and this would be huge news. The paparazzi follow them everywhere and there's no way this part of the story is true.
It might be true that Kevin is planning a film based on his life though. That sounds like the sort of thing the incompetent rapper would try. He claims to have been in a gang in Fresno, California, but he was vague and declined to give details because there aren't any.
"I'm not gonna sit here and say that I'm this grimy, gutter, gangsta. But I have been on the hustle."
Kevin, you've only hustled for Britney's money, and that's pretty inventive of you but it doesn't really make you capable of a film career beyond the unwatchable "Chaotic."
In related news, a couple of days ago we reported that Britney was going to design baby clothes. It's probably true because sleuths at Socialite's Life discovered that Britney has trademarked her infant son's name, Sean Preston, suggesting that she's planning a line of clothing under his name.
Here are outtakes from Britney's magazine spread for Glamour UK. The official pictures came out in early May of this year. [via]
Britney's "Manny" is not a childcare expert at all - he's a security guard who graduated from the Naval Academy and chose a career as Britney's security guard instead of working for a private security firm in Iraq. He also has a hot girlfriend, so he can't be shagging Britney, right?
What's more, quelling rumors that Perry may be taking the place of K-Fed, Perry's mom, Caroline, tells TMZ her son is living with a six-foot brunette (she's Perry's height) and that she's been his girlfriend for two years. Perry's mom calls the girlfriend "a bombshell" and coos she's "the best girl he's ever been with. They're really happy."
Perry and his paramour moved to the West Coast so that Perry could pursue a career in private security. The All-American kid, who graduated from the Academy in 2000, wanted to work in security in Iraq and Afghanistan but, says his mom, "the women in his life talked him out of it." He got his current gig working for a security company, and, according to his mother, worked for another blonde celeb, whom she wouldn't name. Mom says she had never even heard of Britney Spears until her son started working for her.
His Mom tells TMZ that he doesn't know much about babies, and is "just learning" how to care for Sean Preston. He looks like he's a quick learner to us, and he would make a great dad!
That's too bad that he has a girlfriend, because everyone wanted to attribute Britney's personal changes to an affair with the mystery man. Reader Millie pointed out that Princess Caroline married her bodyguard, so it's possible for Britney, too!
It looks like Britney can take full credit for her new outlook, and that might be the best news of all.
Here is Perry getting groceries. [via] Obviously the source we quoted in an earlier report that claimed his name was "Henry" was wrong.

TMZ has a report stating that one of Kevin Federline's boys has denied the rumors that Kevin and Britney are headed for a divorce:
One friend, decked out in baggy pants and sunglasses, claims the talk of divorce is false. "Everything you read in the tabloids about their relationship is fabricated," the buddy said, claiming "They're still together."
Others interviewed at the complex agreed that the divorce talk is off base, but no one would agree to officially go on the record with a quote.
Kevin's staying in an apartment in California and hasn't been spotted with Britney in 74 days according to Us Weekly's counter. His friends are quick to say he's still with Britney but clearly he's not. Whether she's filed and signed divorce papers yet is another matter.
The National Ledger points out that Kevin's friends may say he's still with Britney but that Britney and K-Fed's publicists aren't saying a word. Kevin's publicist put out a press release when he donated his hair, so you know if he's still with Britney they would be all over that.
Here is Britney at an Orange County resort yesterday with her manny, Henry.
Britney Spears was photographed working out on Monday! She was even wearing makeup. This is good news for Britney. She's learning to drive stick, has a new car and a new male nanny and may be divorcing Kevin finally. Now that she's working out you can be sure that she's getting out of the rut she's been in since hurting her ankle in 2004 and shacking up with K-Fed.
Britney is said to be planning to design her own line of baby clothes a la Gwen Stefani. She's reportedly bored and doodling sketches for an infant fashion line aimed at high-end boutiques:
A friend of Britter’s added: “She’s had a lot of time on her hands where it’s just her and Sean and she would doodle designs. She’s really creative and loves doing it.
“She’s designed a little punk rock outfit, a hip hop outfit and a sharp suit. They’re so cute! I think she’ll try and get boutiques to sell them. She doesn’t want to fund it herself.”
Britney has terrible fashion taste, but people are going to market and buy that crap if this story is true. My son has several outfits that people have bought him with ears and tails on them. It's not like you can humiliate a baby by dressing him in dumb clothing. Babies are just about the only demographic that Britney can safely design for.
Here she is at the gym. Thanks to breatheheavy.com for these photos, which were supposedly taken two days ago on June 5th.
Highlighting the fact that she's happily married and hot as ever with a thriving career while Britney Spears, well - isn't, Christina Aguilera said that she's oh so broken up by the fact that Britney couldn't make it to the MTV movie awards this year:
In case you want to give Aguilera the benefit of the doubt and don't think this is a dig at Britney, read what she said about Britney's wedding with K-Fed two years ago:
They may have served chicken wings and hamburgers, but the wedding wasn't all that trashy. A rare hand-beaded invitation to the Spears-Federline wedding along with an initialed party favor candle is for sale on eBay for nearly $1,000. The favors were classy even if the relationship never will be. The eBay seller should have waited until the divorce announcement in order to drive up the price.
Here's trash-talking Christina Aguilera at The Ivy with her husband on June 2nd. She looks pretty tipsy, and it's not the first time.

Everyone was confused about Britney's new baby-loving male companion. Some claimed it was her producer, J.R. Rotem and there was even one crazy rumor that we zealously reported that Britney was having an affair with her producer and that the baby she's carrying might be his.
Later the guy was confirmed to be Britney's male nanny, who perhaps does double-duty as a bodyguard. People were calling him by the uncommon name "Perry."
It turns out the guy's real name is "Henry," and he seems rather likeable from this brief description:
Baby crazy Brit was seen holding little Sean P. in her arms as the mystery man pushed the stroller in Malibu.
Now only "Extra" has the dish. Sources say the hunk is Britney's new nanny, Henry, and he was simply accompanying Brit on a mommy and me outing in the seaside town.
We caught up with Henry as he purchased flowers, and it looked like this tough guy wasn't scared of a little paparazzi loving. When asked if he was Brit's security, he simply smiled and walked away.
Britney has an absent and soon to be ex - husband, but she has a sweet male nanny and a brand new Porsche! She was spotted out in the hot new convertible taking driving lessons so that she can learn to drive standard.
She's giving the bird and hopefully the boot to Kevin, and taking back her life.
Here is Britney out driving her new car with a male instructor - not the manny. [via]
Update: This guy's name is actually Perry, and you can read more about him here.

Britney Spears has supposedly met with divorce lawyers in an attempt to rid herself of the parasite that is Kevin Federline. Star Magazine is set to report Friday that she's finally going to pull the plug on her marriage:
Four days later, Britney made her now infamous trip to New York with Sean Preston. And Kevin, who has been living with friends since Brit threw him out, didn’t even know his wife was out of town.
Star will also reveal that the mag has learned that after Kevin and Britney were married in 2004, he managed to convince her to revise her original prenup offer. The 60-page contract in which Britney originally paid Kevin a $500/week salary as a “production assistant” was eventually rewritten by Mr. Britney Spears’s lawyers.
Sources tell the magazine all of his demands were eventually agreed to – thus insuring Kevin a bigger slice of his wife’s pie.
It sucks for Britney that the divorce will be expensive for her, but at least she's getting her identity back and is ready to finally move on.
A similar story came out in the beginning of the month, claiming that Britney had already met with her lawyers and had papers drawn up to surprise Kevin with.
When is Britney going to announce her divorce already?
Here is Kevin a new photospread for Item Magazine. You can read his stupid interview if you're interested.
Britney Spears is said to be furious with her husband K-Fed for feeding stories about the couple to his scumbag friends to sell to the tabloids:
K-Fed is also said to have spent a whopping $300,000 on a watch without asking Britney if it was ok first. It may have been his money, since he made just that amount for a Japanese tour, but all his other purchases were clearly bankrolled by Britney. He has two cars, a Ferrari with custom "Federline" detailing, and a brand new Maserati. He couldn't afford to even lease the cars for a couple of months if it wasn't for Britney.
There's also a rumor that Britney is making Kevin stay in the basement of their California mansion, but another rumor has him kicked out already.
Let's hope the divorce is announced soon and Britney can move on with her life and her career.
Here she is with a guy who is definitely the Manny, and we now know his name is "Perry." Aww. (Thanks xiaoecho for the tip.)

Britney has been seen out with a cute young guy toting Sean Preston around, and we breathlessly reported Thursday that she's rumored to be dating her record producer, J.R. Rotem, and this may or may not be him. The guy was named as J.R. Rotem in earlier pictures of the two out getting coffee last week. Some people are still saying he's the record producer, while most claim he's the manny:
Lainey's Gossip says that it's Rotem and that he's so fond of Brit he's wearing the Baby Bjorn. They also claim Britney has a schoolgirl crush on her helpful producer, which is why she's been wearing bright red lipstick and making an effort with her appearance.
'notice how she's looking better? With the lipstick and everything? She denies but she is totally in to this guy, not to have an affair but it's something fun, like a crush at work. We are all pretty excited because Kevin is really mad.'
The 'guy' in question is apparently some music producer who has been photographed on a couple of occasions with La Brit, even going so far as to strap on the Bjorn which, as we all know, is a helluva lot more than what that KF*cker is capable of. As I hear it, she's like a girl who has developed a new distraction, something that gets her up in the morning. And this is accounting for her marginally improved appearance.
In the only pictures we could find of Rotem, he looks similar to Britney's help, but it doesn't seem like the same guy. Britney was also photographed in her car with a guy said to be Rotem on 4/24 - before she canned her old nanny - and his hair is darker than this new guy.
If that is really producer J.R. Rotem, he's hanging out with Britney a lot and is going above and beyond by wearing the Baby Bjorn. We doubt it's the same guy.
If that's the Manny, he's not observant enough since Sean Preston is chewing on a piece of paper in the pictures below.
As to Britney's crush/affair and to whom it's with - the truth may be somewhere in between. She's taking better care of herself, and it could be due to the influence of her new male nanny. She also has had more public appearances lately, it's spring, and she's recording a new album. She's ready to dump K-Fed and her dumpy self.
Britney has reportedly kicked her husband K-Fed out of the couple's California mansion. He hasn't been photographed with Britney in weeks, and she's been all over the place looking halfway decent with a new guy who bears a resemblance to her record producer. No wonder people say she's having an affair.
Thanks Millie!
Pictures are from May 25th and May 27th. [via] Only the first two pictures are high res.
Update: This manny's name is actually Perry, he's got a girlfriend and is not having an affair with Britney as far as we can tell, and you can read more about him here.

That guy holding Sean Preston in those pictures last week wasn't the new nanny - he was Britney's producer, JR Rotem. OK! magazine says they're having an affair and that the baby may be his and not K-Feds!:
If it's true that's great news for Britney, and the support from her new boyfriend should help her dump Kevin! She reposted that poem damning K-Fed on her website, and everyone is saying that it means she's ready to go public with the break. The two haven't been seen together in weeks.
Here she is with her new boyfriend outside of a Starbucks in Malibu yesterday. Look how he holds the door open for her!
Update: Rotem is also working with K-Fed on his album, so it makes this a little harder to believe. Rotem has discussed Britney and Kevin's struggle with the hoardes of paparrazi that follow them and seems to feel sorry for the couple.
Also, I'm not sure it's Rotem in these pictures. Here is a picture of JR Rotem. Do you think it's the same guy? It could be an older picture of him. The nose and facial features are similar, but I'm just not sure.

Britney almost dropped baby Sean Preston this week, and you've probably already seen the pictures and video, below. She had a terrible week in the press, and ABC News discusses how she needs to revamp her image by laying low and staying out of the spoltlight for a while. (It also wouldn't hurt if she would wear clothing that doesn't reveal both her bra and underwear at the same time.)
Britney should take a lesson from Kobe Bryant, who was accused of much worse than stupid parenting, in order to revamp her public image:
Spears might turn to Kobe Bryant for inspiration, Cohen says. The basketball star's squeaky-clean reputation was forever altered after he faced sexual assault charges. Even after he publicly apologized to his wife for his infidelity, and reached an out-of-court settlement with his accuser, it was unclear if the public would forgive him.
"Kobe was able to rescue his image. He's even doing product endorsements again," Cohen says. "If he can turn it around, so can Britney."
Britney's latest foibles aren't as damning as driving with SP in her lap. It just seems like she's tired and fed up and it's reflected in her parenting skills. From the video below, you can see how she could get frustrated and stumble with all those people swarming around her. Of course she should have put down the glass, but she doesn't even know which way to walk and looks pretty dazed.
I'm not defending Britney, but I have a husband who's around and loves to spend time with his son and I have some Britney moments. My son, 20 months, sometimes refuses to get dressed or wear shoes. He throws a huge fit and it can be impossible to get him out of the house. The other day I said screw it and let him go out in his bare feet. The nosy neighbor came out on her porch and made fun of him and I thought "If that bitch only knew what I went through to get him outside." Maybe Britney feels that way too. If you read her new "song" to K-Fed, you can tell how exasperated she is. Even mothers with loving husbands can relate to baby burnout.
Right after the incident, Britney says "This is why I need a gun." She must want to clear away some of the paparrazi who she probably blames for the stumble. She doesn't need to kill anyone, she just needs to get away from photographers. Judging from Angelina Jolie's success in changing public policy of an entire African nation, it's possible but not easily done.

Yesterday was a big day for Britney Spears. She posted a new "song" on her official website briefly that was an obvious condemnation of her lazy hick husband, and then she was videotaped and photographed nearly dropping her eight month-old baby, Sean Preston, while walking in NYC.
TMZ had a video of the incident up on their site, but just like the new song on Britney's site it is curiously missing now. You can get the gist from the pictures, below:
Moms have to multi-task and I could see carrying a plastic water bottle that is easily discarded, but a highball glass? Those are the type of glasses in limos from our limited experience, but leave the damn thing in the car if you have to carry your baby! Plus Britney is wearing wedges, too long pants, and is pregnant. Man that is a bad combination.
The guy with the '70s porn 'stash (we came up with this on our own, and noticed that IDLYITW said the same thing about him. Great minds.) who catches SP is on her staff because he's seen in pictures of her elsewhere in NY. If she was alone she would have dropped the poor thing, but she probably wouldn't have been carrying a highball glass while walking down the street, either. Oh Britney.
Thanks to In Case U Didn't Know and Millie for pointing this out to us.
Britney's website entrance was replaced for a little while with a sassy girlpower image of the singer and some friends flipping off the camera. There was also a new "song" on the site, with some obvious digs at K-Fed:
Maybe removing the image and song was a calculated move to have the blogs pick it up and carry the "Britney's fed up" story, or maybe she really wanted this to remain on her site, and was advised against it. Regardless we all know how she feels now, and hope the news of a divorce is forthcoming.
Britney is shown arriving at a children's Presbyterian hospital In NY yesterday.

Baby experts have chimed iin on Britney Spears' parenting techniques. A dietician criticizes the pop singer for admitting that she feeds her eight month-old son, Sean Preston, ice cream to help him sleep:
Of course ice cream should only be an occasional treat for baby, and not a regular before bedtime snack.
While Britney might not have broken the law for putting her son in a forward-facing baby seat with loose straps, she certainly didn't ensure his safety.
The "Car Seat Lady," an expert on "infant passenger safety," has confirmed what everyone has said about the picture of Britney driving with Sean slumped over in the back seat of her convertible - the straps were way too loose:
"It's toward a gross misuse" of the Britax seat, Baer said after examining a photo of Spears ferrying her son in the back seat of her Mini Cooper convertible.
Baby Sean Preston was riding in a forward-facing car seat - which was "in compliance" with California law, Spears' rep said...
"One year old is a bare minimum to keep a child in a rear-facing seat, and older is recommended," said Baer. "Babies' neck bones are still stretchy ... and their heads account for about 25% of their body weight."
That controversial photograph of Sean Preston slumped over in his forward-facing carseat has prompted California lawmakers to introduce a bill that would eliminate grey areas in the state's carseat law. Under the proposed law, all babies under one would be mandated to ride in rear-facing carseats regardless of their weight. The NY Daily News jokes that the new regulation would be called "Britney's Law."
Britney was in NY the past few days, and seemed to bring Sean Preston with her everywhere. This is rare for a celebrity mother, and you can't say she doesn't love the little tyke. She just needs a bit more guidance on how to care for him.
Britney is shown above having a "girl's night out" at Tao in NY yesterday, and at a Lucky magazine event, below. She is also shown shopping in NY. [via] and [via]
Britney Spears' record label says she didn't break the law by having her son in a forward-facing childseat:
It added rear-facing car seats were compulsory neither in California nor many other parts of the US.
"In fact, there are only 10 [states] that require a child to be in a rear-facing car seat, and in two of those states it is not required if the infant is more than 20 lbs. Britney's son Sean weighs over 20 lbs."
It looks like she got off on a technicality. This wasn't as much as a snafu as driving with Sean in her lap, but it still makes her seem like a neglectful mother.
Britney is working on a new album and has hired R&B producer Jonathan 'JR' Rotem, who produced Rhianna's hit "SOS." Rotem has said that Britney will have a song about the paparrazi on her new album, and he reveals how difficult it is for Britney and K-Fed to deal with:
Just as an innocent bystander, Rotem says the media frenzy that follows Spears "is annoying.
Their life is crazy. I'm also working with K-Fed, her husband, quite a bit on some hip hop stuff, and literally every time he comes over, he's followed by like five to eight paparazzi trucks. They just camp out in front of my place while we work and try to take pictures of anything. They cannot go anywhere without being followed. It's amazing and very aggravating."
Being followed everywhere seems to be the price of extreme fame and wealth. If Britney and K-Fed would lay low for a little while, they might get some peace.

When I first saw these pictures of Britney driving with Sean Preston slumped over in his carseat in the back I thought, "oh, how cute, my son does that too." The thing is, I was thinking of him sleeping in his stroller, not his car seat. I also forgot that my son's car seat was until recently rear-facing as is required by law in the states for children under the age of one. My son never falls over like that when he's sleeping in the car, because he's strapped in tight.
Britney could get in trouble with Children and Family Services yet again:
"It's far safer if the seat is facing backwards to avoid head-on injuries and whiplash in case of a collision," said California Highway Patrol spokesman Tom Marshall.
Spears, 24, "could be" cited for violating Section 27360 of the California Vehicle Code, which says child safety seats must be installed to comply with the federal standard.
"We would have to witness the violation. We can't issue a citation from a photograph," Marshall said.
"It's a bit of a gray area," he added, because state code doesn't specify the backward installation - a federal regulation does.
Spears' rep did not return calls for comment yesterday.
"We strongly urge anyone who is uncertain of how to install a car seat to come down to one of our headquarters and get help. We offer that service free of charge," said Marshall.
We installed car seats for our son in both of our cars about a week before he was born. Before we were allowed to leave the birthing center with our newborn, they checked the car to make sure we had a car seat and that it was installed properly. Britney or one of her handlers didn't know better when they put this seat in her new car, and obviously no one bothered to make sure it met regulations.
If she does get some kind of warning for this, it won't be her first. She's being monitored by the Department of Children and Family services, and will receive regular visits from the agency as a result of a head injury that eight month-old Sean Preston sustained when his hairchair supposedly snapped. (Although witnesses claimed SP also fell off the couch when Kevin was meant to be watching him, and that could have caused the injury.)
Britney was also famously pictured driving with Sean Preston on her lap, and refused to take responsibility for the incident, blaming the paparrazi for hounding her.
In terms of child endangerment, installing a carseat wrong is dangerous but seems like a legitimate mistake. At least she put him in the carseat this time.

Britney Spears has been getting deep beyond her ability to comprehend. She made a couple statements recently that reveal that she's trying to come to terms with the spiritual side of life, and is failing miserably.
She made a strange brief statement on her website, her first in over a year, saying she's given up Kabbalah.
She is also quoted as saying that she considers herself a sort of prophet:
Britney, you may not have realized it consciously at the time, but when you have sex without protection you can get pregnant. So you had more of a biology revelation when writing that song than a spiritual awakening.
It's a good thing Britney has given up the Kabbalah cult, though. She doesn't need any more complications in her life.
Britney is pregnant with her second child, which is rumored to be a girl.
Here she is with an unknown male outside a studio in Hollywood on 5/12. Kevin Federline is shown on the same day outside another studio.

In the "please let this be true" department is a story that Britney is so unhappy in her marriage to Kevin Federline that she wants a divorce.
From Life and Style via The Scoop comes news that she threw out his booze and wants to surpise him with divorce papers:
So serious, according to one report, that she’s met with her family and lawyer — but not hubby Kevin Federline — and the topic of divorce came up.
“Brit’s been very unhappy, and I think she needs to find some peace,” a source told Life & Style Weekly. “Once the Spears family gets its game plan together, the idea is to spring a divorce on Kev without warning.”
Spears’ rep denies that there are problems with the marriage, but an insider told the mag that Spears was so angry with her partying hubby that she threw out all his liquor.
“She’s not going to let him make her feel like a guest in her own home anymore,” the insider said. “The new rules include no smoking or drinking, since secondhand smoke is bad for the kids.””
That rocks! Britney seems to have found her strength again with recent public appearances for her perfume line and on Letterman, and it looks like she's not going to take any more crap from Kevin.
She would be much better off raising two kids on her own than having to put up with him. Britney was said to be furious when Sean Preston fell off the couch while K-Fed was supposed to be watching him, and that may have helped her realize how useless her husband is.
Meanwhile Kevin is quoted as saying that he wants out of the relationship, too:
Britney recently refused to fund any more expensive trips to Vegas for K-Fed and his friends, showing that she's finally ready to put her foot down.
It looks like the end for these two, and we can't wait! Go Britney.
Here she is outside of the Late Show studio yesterday.
Britney Spears make a surprise visit to the David Letterman show last night. She joked a little with Dave, confirmed her pregnancy and read the Top Ten.
Referring to earlier banter with Paul Shaffer about Britney's possible pregnancy, Letterman said to Britney "Are we on to something here?"
"Don't worry Dave, it's not yours."
Britney looked happy and seemed excited to be there, but she kept kicking her legs, which made her come off as nervous. She was also chewing gum! You're not supposed to chew gum during a television appearance!
After Britney read the Top Ten "Suprises of the Bird Flu Movie," skipping the word "Tamiflu" because it was too hard, Dave said "So, we've established that you are in fact pregnant?"
"Yes."
Here's the best video currently on YouTube. Once a better one is up, we'll post it.
CBS also has a video online through the Late Show website but it's in Real Player format, which won't install for us here, and you may need to disable pop-up blockers and use IE. It's way too much work and those idiots need to update their website. Real Player went out in 1999, why are they still in business anyway?

Britney Spears attended an Elizabeth Arden event in NY yesterday to celebrate the success of her three perfumes put out by the company.
A giant cake in shape of her fragrance bottle for Fantasy commemorated the occasion, and young dancers from Broadway Dance Center, where Britney had studied in New York before becoming a top-selling recording artist, helped her celebrate. Dancers competed in a dance-off judged by Britney. Twelve-year-old Marina Micalizzi was the winner.
In the pictures at the event, Britney looks polished and happy. She seems to enjoy the dance contest and gets a kick out of the young dancers. In the pictures published by Wireimage, it's hard to tell if she looks pregnant. There are candids of her leaving the event, though, that show a definite bump.
I've gradually changed my mind about this - Britney really is pregnant!
Britney Spears is selling a special Mother's Day bear through 1-800-Flowers. $5 of the proceeds of each sale will benefit the Britney Spears Foundation.
She has a new song available online.

Update: Some images removed on request.
Britney Spears is said to be fed up with her husband Kevin Federline's spending, and has told him she won't pay for any more expensive trips to Vegas for him and his friends:
This isn't the first time Britney has been concerned with Kevin's spending. She supposedly cut up his credit cards and had his Ferrari towed back in December, but quickly reneged.
This comes right after news that Britney hired a security guard babysitter for Kevin, further suggesting their relationship is on the rocks.
Here she is outside of a Taco Bell in LA and in a new magazine spread for Glamour UK. [via] It could be the wind blowing her top out, but she looks pretty pregnant.
Everyone was waiting with baited breath to see what Britney Spears would announce in her press conference yesterday. I even got up early to catch the news and was suprised that it wasn't listed in the Google Entertainment News section yet.
It turns out that now our week of bullshit gossip news is complete, because the entire press conference was a hoax:
"Since I wasn't invited - I would hope so."
Sony executive Karen Phillips was quoted by wire service WENN on Wednesday as saying, "Britney hasn't held a press conference in so long that we know it's something big - pregnancy, a split, we're not sure."
But alas - Brit is silent.
The hard working folks at Jossip note that even Matt Lauer spent his morning wondering what in the heck Britney Spears' big announcement of the day will be.
While pregnancy rumors swirl, along with the "it's a girl!" slugs sparked by a pretty pink shopping spree, Brit hasn't actually told anybody (not even her gang of publicists and managers) what the announcement will be.
The presser is a no-go however and that's a shame. This could have been really interesting.
I googled "Karen Phillips" combined with either "Sony Music" or "Sony BMG" and logical variations like "Karyn," "Caryn," and "Philips" and got nothing about her - except for this supposed quote about the Britney press conference. There is a musician named Karen Phillips, but no "executive." She is also not included on the Sony BMG site among the "executives" listing, although there are only four old white guys there, so there are probably plenty more executives there.
The bottom line is, this Karen Phillips person who was quoted about the press conference probably doesn't exist.
Earlier in the week we found completely fabricated quotes about Katie Holmes' fitness routine from someone we actually know.
It's hard to determine where this press conference story originated, but clearly someone is making up quotes and it's just spreading.
This is gossip, innuendo and rumor, so it's not like it has to be held to a high standard of journalistic integrity. Still, there's a huge difference between saying it's your opinion that someone is pregnant or screwing so and so, and making up shit entirely and acting like it's true. Too many of these stories are totally bogus.
Oh, and Britney fan site BreathHeavy.com reports that Britney and Kevin are going to renew their vows after Kevin promised Britney that he would change. They don't have a source listed, though, and this doesn't sound true to us. Not much does lately.

News reports are taking this out of context. Kevin Federline was being interviewed on Power 106 radio station in California and the DJs asked him to answer "questions out of the forbidden hat." They told him he could "tap out" at any time, and that he didn't have to answer a question if he didn't want to. He said he wanted a threesome with Jessica Alba in response to a question, but that's a no-brainer, and he didn't even know her name.
We actually listed to this crap, and here's what he said:
KFed: Oh girl in Sin City, what was her name?
DJ: Jessica Alba
KFed: There you go...
DJ: if you were on a raft, out in the middle of the ocean, and both Britney and Sean Preston were in the water, who would you save? You could only choose one.
KFed: [no pause] Sean P, baby, my kids. I love you, I love you baby, but I have to say that one.
When questioned, he says that Britney is a better lover than Shar Jackson although he hesitates, and he also says Britney is a better dancer than him.
While it's rather damning that Kevin would immediately admit that he'd pick his son over his wife and wouldn't say it's a hard decision, it's not that unusual to want to save your helpless child over an adult.
Kevin says in a different interview that Britney supports his music career, and that he would probably give it up if she didn't.
Britney's big press conference for music industry executives is today. People are buzzing that she'll announce a pregnancy, and that she's having a baby girl, due in October.

On April 13th, we reported that the Department of Children and Family Services announced that they closed their investigation into Sean Preston's highchair fall accident. We mentioned that it seemed odd that they would close a case so soon, considering that it usually takes months for them to investigate. It turns out that we were right, because Britney will now receive regular visits from the child welfare agency. They have made careful statements saying there's no "ongoing investigation," but they're still going to check in on her:
The Department of Children and Family Services have told the singer that it is routine procedure to make regular visits to her household as Sean was treated for head injuries this month.
"Initial visits showed no parental neglect whatsoever," a source told the Daily Star. "But it's routine to have follow-up checks. It would be important to meet any new nanny or carer, for the purpose of updating records. There's no investigation pending."
Seven month-old Sean was said to have suffered from a skull fracture, which may have occurred from a highchair fall or a reported fall off the couch when his father Kevin was supposed to be watching him. Sean Preston did not have a skull fracture or a blood clot, and those reports were false. He did suffer some kind of head injury that made him sleepy, though.
Britney is said to be five months pregnant with her second child. News reports went back and forth as to her pregnancy status, with the latest news stating that it's true. When questioned about his wife's pregnancy at a recent radio station appearance, Kevin said "I wouldn't bet on it."
Here is Kevin going out to dinner at the restaurant Nobu with a friend. Pictures [via]
Britney Spears has a press conference scheduled for May 7th. She's supposed to be announcing her pregnancy and may admit that she's separated from Kevin: (please let the second part be true):
Jive Records and Britney's management were allegedly planning to release her 5th Album in November this year and a world tour was being drawn up for early 2007; Spears was also due to perform at numerous award shows this year but has since pulled out of the commitments due to an unexplained reason.
Now it really does sound like she's pregnant. She's probably not breaking up with K-Fed, though. The article says they haven't been seen together in "weeks," but that's not true. They were just together in Vegas for his show at Pure, even though Britney didn't attend.
Kevin has called Britney the inspiration for his terrible rap-like music and says that little Sean Preston just loves to listen to it:
"In some senses [sic] I feel I have to stick up for my family.
"I want my son and my daughter and my other son to sit up there and look at daddy on TV and say, 'Damn!'"...
It seems Sean Preston is daddy’s biggest (only) fan, Federline said of his son: "He is all smiles when he hears it.
"You can tell the musically inclined thing is already there with him."
Kevin is just so well-spoken, isn't he? He also revealed his painful past and said he was involved with gangs in Fresno:
"I'm not gonna sit here and say that I'm this grimy, gutter, gangsta. But I have been on the hustle."
OMG that is funny. When someone says they're not getting in details, they mean there are no details.
Here is Kevin walking to his car or something. When the photographer asked him if Britney is pregnant, he didn't respond. [via] TMZ has a video of it and of Kevin driving around. I wasted a minute of my life watching it, please don't make the same mistake.
Britney Spears decided to get rid of her nanny as a result of Sean Preston's supposed fall from a high chair:
Britney has been “hiding out and depressed” since her son’s head-bonking incident and cancelled plans to celebrate her brother Bryan’s birthday, the mag reports. “She wanted to be a mother and thought she could snap her fingers and be the perfect mom,” a “pal” told the mag. “But Britney is learning the hard way that being a good mother is something you always have to work at.”
Britney also asked for a doctor's advice, who told her not to put Sean Preston up "on any high surfaces where he could roll off." Yeah, that's not common sense or anything. Britney wanted to hire the doctor full time, but he declined. He must have realized that trading in a medical practice to become a nanny to celebrity isn't a wise career move.
MSNBC's The Scoop goes on to attribute Britney's non-attendance at Kevin's show last week to her fear of leaving the baby alone with the neglectful nanny. We heard a few different versions, which we reported earlier. One had Kevin asking Britney to stay away so that he could get all the attention and another had Britney jealous that Kevin had asked Paris Hilton to come to the show. Either of those sound more likely.
Maybe Britney will snap out of it soon and take charge of her life. If she's really pregnant, she'll need to get her act together so that she can care for two babies. She'll need to be more responsible even if she does get better staff.
Here's Britney and her nanny in some pictures from late February.
Update: here's a link to an Us Weekly scanned article about Sean Preston's accident.
So Us Weekly is claiming that Britney is like, 100% pregnant.
They have a picture of Britney covered up while holding Sean Preston as proof, and will presumably publish some of her in the bikini in their print edition.
We're not believing it until we see it for certain. It still seems like a recycled rumor.
Here's the back of Britney's head as she drives a mini cooper convertible. She is working on her new album with the guy in the passenger seat. [via]
Update: popbytes has a small picture of the article scan.
We were right that K-Fed's jealousy of Britney's fame is what kept her from his concert. Kevin is said to have told Britney over dinner to stay away from his show at Pure nightclub last Friday, even though she was planning on coming and was already in Vegas to support him:
The 'Toxic' singer - who has a son, Sean Preston, with 28-year-old Federline - is said to have been devastated after he broke the news to her on a dinner date at plush Las Vegas restaurant Nero.
One onlooker said: "It was a full-blown war of words. It was a very bad night for Britney.
"Kevin didn't want Britney overshadowing him on the red carpet. Britney fled the restaurant and raced up to her suite alone, boycotting his performance."
Britney was seen fleeing to her suite in tears. An earlier report had Britney jealous that Federline had invited Paris Hilton to come, (although Paris sent her parents instead) but it makes more sense that K-Fed's jealousy is what kept her away. Earlier rumors had the couple fighting over the fact that K-Fed thought that Brtiney stole his thunder at his performances.
Kevin Federline cannot rap and would have no career if it wasn't for his talented wife. He was said to have turned down an earlier offer from Britney to get professional production help on his album. He's a fool for not accepting Britney's support, and for telling her to stay away from his shows. She will hopefully come to her senses and leave him soon.
Posted to Britney Spears | Kevin Federline | Relationship trouble
TMZ reported that Britney Spears planned to attend the listening party for her husband Kevin Federline's excuse for a rap album at Pure nightclub in Las Vegas this past Friday.
But in an interesting turn of supportive wifeliness, Britney Spears is planning to attend and has even gone so far as to put 11 of her own friends on the guest lists for the party, sources say.
The pictures have come out from the event, and Britney is nowhere to be found. Is she fed up with K-Fed? We reported on Saturday that she was said to be enraged with Kevin when seven month-old Sean Preston fell off the couch when Kevin was supposed to be watching him. Sources say this may have been the fall that fractured the baby's skull, not the incident with the highchair.
Britney may have stayed away because Kevin asked her to. The couple was said to be fighting over the fact that Britney gets all the attention at events promoting Kevin. The last time they made a public appearance together was at a belated birthay party for Kevin on March 25th.
Britney is also said to feel threatened by reports that her ex-bodyguards plan to dish the dirt on her, which could include allegations of drug use and details of her sloppy lifestyle.
Here is K-Fed looking like a royal ass at his show on Friday. [via]
Update: Britney may have been pissed that Kevin asked Paris Hilton to come to the party. Paris didn't attend, and sent her parents instead. Another report has Britney and Kevin arguing in Vegas before the gig, with Britney crying before she went back to their suite.
Britney Spears' seven month-old son, Sean Preston, has fallen several times according to sources close to Kevin and Britney. He's said to have fallen off the bed twice and off the couch at least once.
Twice before, says a source, the baby has rolled off of the pop princess' bed and crashed to the floor. Doctors say Sean could suffer brain seizures or memory loss for years to come.
Both times Britney freaked out when she was wakened by the sound of her little boy screaming," said an insider. "She found him lying face down on the floor after falling from the bed."It was every mother's nightmare come true. She was so afraid he was hurt. The first time it happened, Sean was just over three months old. Fortunately the floor in Britney and Kevin's bedroom is carpeted and the baby was frightened but uninjured.
"But two weeks later, the same scary thing happened again. Once again Britney woke to find the little guy face down on the floor, crying his heart out. This time she was shaken to the core."
Another article states that Sean Preston also rolled off the couch when Kevin was supposed to be watching him, outraging Britney:
“When Britney came to the door, she heard a thump and then Sean Preston screaming,” says one insider. Brit immediately blamed Kevin, telling him, “You’ve been nothing but trouble for me ever since I met you.”
Kids fall, and my son rolled off the couch at that age when I was actually watching him. It wasn't that far and he seemed fine, but it was scary. Of course when a child falls more than a couple of times it is cause for alarm, especially when the baby ends up with fractured skull! Kevin probably wasn't paying attention to Sean Preston at all, and he deserves much more than a few harsh words from Britney.
Now Britney is said to be afraid of losing Sean since she's in the system with the Department of Children and Family Services. Considering how poorly the agency handled abuse claims against Michael Jackson, Britney doesn't seem to have much to worry about.
Britney has received a lot of bad press for driving with her baby in her lap and getting investigated by social services. An online poll in Us Weekly found that only 27% of the people who responded would let their kids play at Britney's house.
Here are pictures of Britney out shopping without Sean Preston yesterday. TMZ has a video of Britney walking to her car. The person videotaping asks "Is everything ok with Sean?" and she nods yes and gets in the car.
If you look closely you can see that she's wearing a locket with a little picture of Sean Preston on it.

Britney Spears has met with Will and Grace producers to discuss an ongoing role in school-based sitcom, "Dentention":
During the two-hour meeting in late February, the singer read lines from a script and confessed she was "aching to give acting a go," according to Us Weekly magazine.
Spears guest starred alongside Hayes on Will & Grace last month, appearing as a conservative talk show host.
A source close to the actor says, "Having seen the way Britney works, he knows she has potential."
One of the producers' main concerns was that the pop star was pregnant with her second child.
The source adds, "First, she laughed and said, 'Do I look it?' Then she assured them that she wouldn't jeopardize a new project.
Britney is said to be very interested and is looking forward to the project. We don't think she can act, but it's likely she'll get the role anyway.
Meanwhile Britney is said to be pushing K-Fed to enroll in charm school, but he predictably doesn't want to go:
You can't change a guy, Britney, that's why you don't marry the guys you date in your early twenties.
Here are a bunch of different looks that Britney has sported recently, as shown on People Online. [via]
Nothing came of the recent Department of Children and Family Services investigation into Sean Preston's skull fracture. The case was dropped immediately after case workers questioned the Spears-Federlines. (In what is probably an oversight, The Sun spells Federlines last name wrong in the way that we all do to make fun of him.)
But after quizzing Britney and hubby KEVIN SPENDERLINE, authorities ruled it was an accident.
Britney’s lawyer Marty Singer said: “They determined that the parents were not involved in any injury and that nothing improper was done within the home.”
Doctors say the seven-month-old is lucky to be alive after plunging three feet on to his head when his high chair snapped on April 1. He was being looked after by his nanny at the star’s home in Malibu.
From what I know, Child Services can take months to investigate a case. They must have closed this one right away because it was Britney's baby.
Here is Kevin Federline in Century City, California on April 11th.

Britney is being investigated by the Department of Children and Family Services. It was initially thought that the visit was due to the incident where she was photographed driving with Sean Preston in her lap, but it turns out that there's a potentially scarier situation with Sean Preston.
A source tells Us that the Sheriff’s visit was part of the ongoing investigation into allegations that Spears drove a car while her baby, Sean Preston, sat on her lap. “It was part of the child endangerment investigation,” says the source, who adds that Britney was told ahead of time by her lawyers that the DFCS would be paying a visit. “She knew they were coming. It was all standard.” Source says that Spears’ attorneys do not Britney to be prosecuted. “It’s all political. They have to do [the investigation].”
We assumed it was just a routine visit too, until we read that Star is reporting that poor Sean Preston has a fractured skull!
They had every right to fret. After rushing Sean to a nearby hospital, they discovered he had a minor skull fracture (sometimes called a "scalp fracture" in babies), and a blood clot. And the doctors weren't the only ones to take notice! The next day, the Department of Children and Family Services began looking into the incident.
That's scary and it's hopefully just due to the highchair fall. We learned on Law and Order that child abuse is usually committed by the father. We're just saying.

Britney is getting all sorts of bad press this week. First she is supposedly stress-eating, and was told by her record company to shape up or risk her career:
A source said: "[Britney] went to the supermarket one day and loaded up on chips and all sorts of chocolate
bars. She brought it all home and has been chowing down like there's no tomorrow..."
"She's been so depressed over Kevin and the state of her marriage that all she wants to do is eat to stop the pain."
Poor Britney. It must be hard to be married to Federjerk, and hopefully she'll find a more constructive way to deal with her stress.
She also isn't even in the top 100 of FHM's sexiest women this year, and one of Kevin's exes (not Shar Jackson) has said that she better shape up or she'll lose Kevin. Maybe that's why she's taking her time about it.
Britney has a new single which you can partially hear online. You can download a 50 second mp3 of "Just Yesterday" from breatheheavy.com.
Here is Britney dancing to her new song. The video says it's called "Little Me," but it is credited as "Just Yesterday" on breatheheavy.com, and is supposed to be about her sister. She's still got the moves and the song is lovely.
Kevin Federline and Britney Spears are reportedly fighting because KFed feels that Britney steals all the attention at events promoting his album. Both Star Magazine and Life and Style report that Federline feels lame because he can't get any recognition on his own. The gossip rags have a similar take on Kevin's promotional appearance at Club X in Dallas on April 1st.
Life and Style reports:
“But when Britney walked in, the crowd went crazy.”
“It’s always about Britney — or Britney and Kevin as a couple — but these events are about Kevin,” says a K-Fed insider, who adds that Kevin arrived at the club solo to keep the spotlight on him only. (Brit arrived about half an hour later.) “I’m not even sure Kevin thought she was coming, because he was just focusing on himself.”
"He didn't want her there to steal his thunder. He feels that whenever Britney is around, she inevitably gets all the attention. However, a source close to Britney, 24, says she's the one who's mad, thanks to Kevin, 28, and his oversize ego.
"What he doesn't seem to understand," the source fumes, "is that the only reason anyone is interested in him is because he's Britney Spears' husband. He would not have an album if it weren't for Britney."
While Britney's right about being the bigger star, she has mistaken ideas about where she should focus her efforts. She seems to think her forgettable drop-in appearance on Will and Grace is the beginning of an actual acting career:
“She hasn’t stretched this much since she took on the role of impressive pop singer.”
— Neal Justin, staff writer, Minneapolis Star Tribune
“She has no presence, she struck awkward poses in terribly unflattering outfits and the drawl wasn’t very convincing.”
— Matt Roush, senior TV critic, tvguide.com
In case you doubt these negative reviews, you can watch Britney's "acting" for yourself. She is a bigger star than her husband - but she's a pop singer, not an actress:
Dolby blogs about Federline's theft of the sample:
Now, Mobb Deep did it the right way and had his label BMG come and ask for a license. They paid me a fee and a royalty on the sales of Mobb Deep’s record. However K-Fed, as his fans affectionately refer to him, did NOT ask permission, he just went ahead and did it. He is therefore blatantly violating the copyright law. And laws aside, he owed it to me as an artist to ask if I minded that he recorded a vitriolic rap over the top of my music. It starts off ‘This is for the HATERS…’ and goes on to blast the media, paparrazzi and all his other critics, sparing no expletives along the way.
BMG Records have also had their copyright violated, as they own the master to Mobb Deep’s record. But BMG don’t want to rock the Britney boat so they are turning a blind eye. It’s pathetic! Turns out K-Fed has no management, label or lawyer, so it’s going to be hard getting hold of him. So K-Fed, if you’re reading this, I’m asking you nicely to take the track down ASAP. Or maybe you’d prefer me to come after some of your wife’s ill-gotten gains?
Dolby is touring again as a single act after 15 years, and finds it amusing that press outlets are more interested in his feud with Federline than the fact that he's revitalizing his music career.
Here is Federline's wife, Britney Spears, rotting her child's teeth and accompanying her husband to a promotion gig for his album at Club X in Dallas.

Starpulse has a story stating that little people organizations are outraged that Britney hired people of small stature to entertain her husband at his birthday party in Atlanta. We could find no press releases or official statements confirming this, although it does seem obvious that her actions would upset people:
At the party, hosted in a Las Vegas, Nevada restaurant, two female dwarves were reportedly employed to carry in Kevin Federline's 28th birthday cake, while another dressed as a miniature Sonny Bono alongside a Cher look-alike.
Horrified sources claim boozy guests giggled and cheered, with some jokingly suggesting a dwarf-throwing contest.
But dwarf groups are enraged at the appearances, insisting the stunt was demeaning.
A member of America's Billy Barty Foundation - named after the late diminutive Hollywood veteran - says, "It is wicked to hurl abuse at anyone of diminished height simply because they are small.
"We know dwarves and midgets who are immense in stature because of their talent.
"Mostly they are able to rise above any insults. But inevitably, feelings are hurt by nasty comments. There's only one word for it - bullying."
When we first reported that Britney hired dwarves to entertain her husband, we noted that "People who mock little people are ignorant and stupid." It's like hiring someone in black face for laughs, and Britney deserves plenty of criticism for this.
Here are some little people organizations so that we can all be a little more enlightened about how offensive Britney's actions were. (Again, there are no official press releases, but it may be helpful to get someone else's point of view.)
- Dwarfism.org, which notes that the term "midget" is highly offensive
- The Children of Difference Foundation
- Little People of America
Britney is said to be due in September if she's really pregnant. We don't think that dumb bitch should produce any more children, and hope that the nanny can drum some sense into SP, because he doesn't have much of a chance with the parents he's got.

Britney has denied that she's pregnant, but is said to have gone to a UCLA hospital this weekend for severe stomach cramps. It's always possible that she had food poisoning or something, but the hospital representative makes it sound as if it was Britney and that she's pregnant!
However, unconfirmed reports in America have claimed Federline had to take Spears to Santa Monica UCLA Medica Center this week, after the singer suffered stomach cramps.
The centre’s Barbra Johna is quoted as saying, "Unfortunately we cannot go into patient speficis due to patient confidentiality, however I can confirm we did receive a new patient to the maternity ward.
"I'd like to say that this female is in a fit and healthy state."
Would the hospital representative mess with us like that?
The Britney Spears pregnancy rumors are not going to be put to rest with these latest pictures, which show the new mom in a skintight white dress with a pudge or a bump depending on if you squint hard enough.

Some nude pictures of Britney Spears that were seen online have been deemed fakes:
Snapper ERIC STRIFFLER said the look-a-like of the TOXIC singer was a glamour model called EMILY after the snaps had spread all over the internet.
No word if the naked Britney pictures sold to Golden Palace for $40,000 last week were also fake.
Britney's appearance on Will and Grace Thursday was said to be decent and funny, but a bit rough in spots. Her southern accent was also said to be overdone.
Here are two recent sets of pictures of Britney's husband, Kevin Federline. These show him getting coffee for Britney on Sunday March 26, and arriving with his friends at a recording studio in Atlanta on March 24th.

Regarding Spears, Spheeris says, "Her agent asked if I could meet with her. Music ability is important, but most of all, the actress must have the spirit of Janis. Each of the actresses who has expressed interest in the role (would) bring her own special talents to the part."
Obviously the director was being gracious and does not think Britney Spears has the "spirit" of Janis. She also cannot act for shit. We'd like to see Pink give it a shot.

So both pro and anti-choice people predictably dislike the ridiculous Britney Spears statue that shows Britney giving birth on a bearskin run next to some anti-choice pamphlets.
"Others who are pro-life thought this was degrading to their movement. And some pro-choice people were upset that this is a pro-life monument."
At the very least, it's inaccurate. Britney had a scheduled c-section and never considered abortion. (We made that last part up, but it's probably true.)
If all goes well, the controversial statue will go on display for two weeks at the Capla Kesting Fine Art gallery in Brooklyn. You can bet a lot of protestors will be there.
Here is Britney in all her newly pregnant (?) glory - see the picture above because we're not commenting - at a dance studio in Malibu with her son yesterday. She was said to have given a special performance as a fundraiser for the school.

Britney is getting sued by some of her former bodyguards for not paying overtime for the 24-7 coverage she demands:
I don't know, I mean I usually side with the labor but 2k a week doesn't sound bad. They probably just couldn't stand being around her all day.

Britney and SP shopped with help from her personal assistant and bodyguard at Ralphs grocery store in Malibu yesterday. Seen in her cart were Cheerios (we would guess for SP), Splenda, Skittles, and cans of Coke and Tab. Britney was also spotted with a ready-made salad, so at least part of her diet isn't processed food.
One of the most interesting stories to come out about Britney recently involves the little people exploited at her husband's birthday party:
The following night the pair visited the same club, and Britney arranged for a Cher look-a-like to perform a duet of 'I Got You Babe' with a midget Sonny Bono impersonator...
"Everyone found Britney's surprise really hilarious. Kevin and Britney and their friends were in fits."
That's right, little people are just hysterical.
I saw an HBO America Undercover special called "Dwarfs: Not a fairy tale" a while ago that really opened my eyes:
People who mock little people are ignorant and stupid, and Britney and Kevin reveal how low class they really are with this latest stunt.

The Enquirer will report that online casino Golden Palace, famous for its offbeat eBay purchases, has paid a mere $40,000 for nude pictures of Britney Spears. The pictures were taken when Britney was a teenager:
The Enquirer is also reporting that a friend of Britney says the Pop-Tart star is furious.
Britney can take heart, her old nude pictures are worth more than the holy Virgin Mary Grilled Cheese and William Shatner's kidney stone, which went for $28,000 and $25,000 respectively.
Golden Palace has yet to announce the purchase of Britney's pictures on their website.

Britney cleaned up well and dressed modestly for a party at Vision nightclub in Atlanta to promote her husband Kevin Federline's new critically-panned rap-like album last night.
Britney and Kevin have a shaky relationship as everyone knows, and it's nice that Britney is trying to support Kevin, however misguided his career.
Britney and her mother are said to be fighting. Britney was supposedly "in shock" after her mother refused to fly out to Hawaii to lend her support after Britney and Kevin had a row. Mrs. Spears may be annoyed that Britney is quick to ask for help but slow to act on everyone's advice that she leave Kevin.

There have been conflicting reports about Britney's drinking habits. People and Us Weekly reported that Britney has been drinking as we mentioned yesterday, and today the NY Daily News states that she was doing shots while out in Vegas on Wednesday night.
The National Ledger tipped us off to the fact that TMZ said that she was drinking non-alcoholic beverages and did not smoke on Wednesday night, according to a source:
The AOL web site details that Britney was a true teetotaler - she never drank and never smoked the entire evening. But she did irritate some patrons - whenever Brit went to the bathroom, security cleared a path and closed off the restroom.
We could not find the article The National Ledger sources on TMZ's website, so it must be a video report and you'll have to take their word for it.
Over the past few days, everyone has gradually come to the conclusion that Britney isn't pregnant based primarily on the fact that she has been drinking. If she's not drinking, then all bets are off.
We have pictures from three different image galleries. The header image is from Kevin's appearance at "All the Hits Q-100" radio station in Atlanta today, presumably promoting his album. [via] There are some pictures of Kevin smoking and playing craps with Britney watching on 3/22. [via] And of the two supposedly shopping in Vegas yesterday, although the pictures look like they're taken at the same casino where Kevin was playing craps. [via]
People are going to say Kevin looks good in these candids at the radio station, but we still don't see it. He looks like any idiot early-20s loser who still thinks he's a teenager.

Britney and Kevin are in Vegas for Kevin's 28th birthday party. TMZ has a quick video of the couple out last night while the pictures below were taken. Britney has her hand over her stomach, but it could mean anything. It does not look like she is hiding a bump, contrary to some reports.
Here are the latest rumors:
We're honestly a little tired of these two, and think that Britney is just trapped in a bad relationship with a user. Yes that's stating the obvious, but it would be much more interesting if she would put her foot down for once. (And if she would wear something that covers up her fat instead of showcasing it.)

Before you get excited thinking this thing is actually going to come out, remember how unwatchable Chaotic was. Britney Spears has an ongoing lawsuit against US Weekly for a 2005 October article that claimed that Britney and Kevin made a sex tape which they inexplicably showed to their estate lawyers:
US Weekly wanted the lawsuit dismissed, but the judge just ruled that the suit could proceed and that Spears' lawyer has until April 6 to get more witnesses. The author of the article in question says that his source was solid, and Spears' lawyer is not calling him as a witness.US Weekly has refused to print a retraction.
Spears denies the tape even exists and is seeking $20 million in damages. US Weekly says Spears might be able prove the article was false, but can't show that they had malicious intent in printing it.
You know that this thing probably exists. These are the attention whores who bragged about their sex life in that piece of shit Chaotic. Let's hope for Britney's sake this whole thing just blows over, and if there is a tape it's been destroyed.
Britney was back in LA yesterday at a recording studio. While her friend has a muffin-top, Britney might actually be pregnant since her belly button is protruding so much. We don't know. US Weekly just reported that she wasn't pregnant, and has a C-section scar infection. (Thanks Perez!) It sounds like they're just hedging their bets.
Thanks to Marie at the JJB board for these pictures.

Ok, the latest news is that US Weekly claims that Britney is not pregnant, she's just all puffed up from a bad C-section scar infection and is drinking a lot to ease her pain.
She also stepped on a needle while barefoot and was rushed to hospital for the umpteenth time this month. Maybe she can call Pammy for help coping with hepatitis. We hear that a lot of drinking helps that condition, too.
The girl is a mess. We reported two weeks ago that her new perfume is called "In Control." We're not going to make an obvious, cheap shot. We just hope the stuff lives up to its name.
All kidding aside, the needle does not seem to have infected her with anything. Her husband also used her credit card to send her flowers.

Whether she's pregnant or not (we change our mind every day), Britney should not be eating junk food. Anyone who's seen Supersize Me knows that McDonalds does damage fast.
TMZ reports that Britney and Kevin hit up McDonalds and KFC all the time:
Fast food isn't actual nutrition, it's just a treat. Now we really think they're nasty.
Kevin also complained that he can't golf anymore, and implied that he barely sees Britney and SP during the week:
Well, at least he thinks he's working.

Britney must not have watched the Brady Bunch, because the family's first vacation in Hawaii was totally ruined by the curse of an evil tiki doll. It looks like she found the thing and is oblivious to the pain and suffering it's about to bring to her family. She'll never break up with K-Fed now. The curse of the Tiki Doll is clearly affecting him too.
Pictures [via]
Sugababes star Keisha Buchanon claims that K-Fed was checking her out - right in front of Britney and his infant son.
"He is probably all over loads of girls and if we can see it, why can't she?" Buchanan is very similar in looks to Federline's ex-love, Shar Jackson.
Buchanon is single after splitting with her boyfriend of three years, basketball player Zane Alliluyeva, a few weeks ago.
Buchanon sums it up nicely. We all want to shake Britney and tell her to snap out of it and get rid of the creep.
You think the guy would try a little harder to deserve the free ride he's getting. Britney may have gained a few pounds, but she's pregnant, she's rich, and she's still gorgeous when she cleans up. (Ok, maybe she's not gorgeous and granted she doesn't know how to dress, but she looks good.)

Britney Spears does not know how to cut her losses. Instead, she's attempting to miminize them by putting Kevin on a budget:
Page Six goes on to quote a source that witnessed Britney screaming at Kevin on her cell phone for not visiting her all day.
Obviously things are strained between Britney and Kevin. There's also been a lot of speculation that she's pregnant. The latest news is that she told someone at the Four Season's spa that she's pregnant and that she cancelled a photoshoot because of her growing midsection.
While some call the latest photos of Britney in a bikini inconclusive, a video of Britney walking in Hawaii on March 4th shows the pop star with a discernable bump as she moves around:

Paying attention to Britney Spears is like rubbernecking. You have to try really, really hard not to do it, and everyone does it even though it slows us all down.
Britney is supposedly three months pregnant and is planning to leave Kevin to raise the baby "alone." Here is a thrilling video of the family walking down the street. According to Marie, who puts up all of the best paparazzi photos on the JJB board, the two are staying in separate hotels on the island of Maui.

Despite recent denials by Britney's publicist, there is no hiding her baby bump in these bikini pictures from yesterday. Star reports that Britney is definitely pregnant and is dumping Kevin. While we'd rather see her single than with Kevin, they still seem to be together. Photos from the last few days show them in Hawaii holding hands and going for a walk with the baby.

More thrilling balconey shots of world famous freeloader Kevin Federline. The woman with him is not Britney, but may be "Jenny, her manager's girlfriend" according to posts on the bulletin board where I found the pictures. It doesn't look like they're doing more than hanging out, anyway.
Britney just bought a $5.1 million house in Hawaii and is going to release a new fragrance called "In Control." It's an ironic choice for a perfume name when her life is anything but "In Control."
The singer hopes to release the vanilla-based aroma as a limited edition in April (06).
K-Fed seems to have joined his foolish wife in Hawaii. Here are some snaggle-tooth pictures of him talking on the phone. I know, these are thrilling. She may have kicked him out of the house, but he's still hanging around. [via]
Update: According to British tab "The Sun," Britney bought a 3 million house in Hawai hoping to rekindle her relationship. I can't keep up anymore, but the girl is just trying too hard.

Reports are surfacing that Britney was enraged after being tipped off about photos of Kevin with his arm around French "actress" Sandy Lakdar, aka DIE2DIE. She supposedly kicked him out - yes again:
Federline, who was working on his debut album in Los Angeles, was photographed cuddling with a sultry young dancer, called SANDY LAKDAR, outside Hollywood's Millennium Studios.
A friend of Spears' says, "She was literally kicking and screaming (when she heard about the photos). When she got back to her suite, she was so furious, she destroyed everything in sight. She called Kevin but couldn't reach him."
The friend claims Spears has since ordered her husband to pack his bags and "get the hell out" of the house she shares with him in Malibu, California.
The dates seem a bit sketchy, considering that she was just in New Orleans with Kevin. It's possible that she kicked him out afterward.
For her part, Lakdar says that she just met Kevin that day, so of course nothing could have happened:
This argument is weak, given how intimate the two looked. Whether she's telling the truth or not, the pictures are damning. If she only met him that day, then she might not have fucked him but it's still wrong for him to treat her like an old friend. When I first saw the pictures, I even thought the two might be related. Please let it be true that Britney kicked him out, and let's hope she's not really pregnant again. (Or at least that it's not K-Fed's.)

Britney's own cousin talks trash about her relationship, speculating that Britney and K-Fed will split up soon:
The pop princess wants to do the best thing for the sake of her four-monthold baby Sean Preston, according to Art Spears, a 52-year-old engineer.
Britney's cousin Art said: "I don't think Britney and Kevin are going to stay together.
"Her son is her life and she will obviously do what ever is best for him - but does that involve Kevin? I don't think so."
We have heard that they fight in public, she has thrown him out of the house in the past and may have briefly taken his Ferrari away, and there are many pictures of Britney without her ring. Britney is also in Hawaii with SP while K-Fed cavorts with a French "actress" in LA. Of course their relationship is stable.
