Britney Stinks

HerBadMother — Sun, 20 Jan 2008 00:03:00 GMT

Because she's human, y'all!

During a radio interview between Ryan Seacrest and Britney hanger-on Sam Lufti on Thursday, the pop singer's voice suddenly came on the line, speaking from the shower:

"Get out, I'm naked, get out!" Spears is heard telling pal Sam Lutfi as he carries the phone toward her during the interview from her house with KIIS-FM's Seacrest.

When Lutfi asks why she's taking a shower, Spears replies: "I stink, 'cause I'm a human being. Shut the door, I'm nasty!"

I'm not going to touch the "I stink... I'm nasty" comment, because, you know, just because she brings it on herself doesn't mean that we should take advantage. But I would like to know the answer to this question: why, for Britney Spears, does being naked in the shower demand privacy, but being naked in, say, the Betsey Johnson shop at Sherman Oaks does not? Just wondering.

Did Britney's Skeevy Boyfriend Set-Up Those Preg-Test Photos?

HerBadMother — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 21:20:00 GMT

Like we needed more evidence that Adnan Ghalib - Britney's paparazzo boy-toy - is an opportunistic skeez: the photos that surfaced this week of Britney buying a pregnancy test were taken by Adnan's photo agency.

Speculation is that Britney was actually colluded with Ghalib to set up the photos, to benefit Ghalib and his photo agency, FinalPixx.

MTV.com says that 'judging from the volume of calls FinalPixx staffers were juggling on Wednesday, the stunt resulted in a huge influx of new business for the company — including MTV News, which licensed one photo at a rate of $300 for the right to use the shot online. (People.com, which used a shot, and TMZ, which used video footage on air, declined MTV News' request to disclose how much they paid, and FinalPixx declined to discuss how much new business they have received, in either specific or general terms.)

Ghalib's colleagues in the paparazzo world have been skeptical since he first took up with the star.

"When People.com licensed the set-up pix of Britney and Adnan 'shopping' for pregnancy tests, did they fall for Adnan's trick?" X17 blogged.

"Britney Spears has admitted toying with the public," Splash News blogged. "I wonder what Adnan will convince Britney to do next!"'

Yeah. I wonder.

As If Britney Didn't Have Enough To Cope With...

HerBadMother — Fri, 18 Jan 2008 20:10:00 GMT

... a handful of paparazzi have to go and (almost) run her off the road. Like she doesn't have enough trouble driving right now, what with all the effort of maintaining that British accent and figuring out when and where she's going to strip next.

I know, that's mean. One shouldn't snark Britney when she's down. I feel sorry for her, I really do. Not as much as Rosie O'Donnell, maybe (Rosie thinks that Brit-Brit is like a next-gen Princess Di; I say she's more like a next-gen Anna Nicole Smith), but still - she has my heart-felt sympathies. So I have to say that I'm glad that those skeezy paps were arrested for reckless driving (they are now, however, out on bail).

Now if someone could just arrest Adnan Ghalib for reckless scuzzbagness, I'd be happy.

Britney Spears Must Be Pregnant. How Else To Explain The NAKED BATSHIT CRAZIES?

HerBadMother — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 22:32:00 GMT

Just when you think that Britney's one-way carnival ride to hell in a handbasket couldn't get anymore bizarre, comes this: Britney, naked, in a mall, screaming profanities at terrified Betsey Johnson salesgirls. Also, possibly, sex in a dressing room stall. Whether this was before or after she went shopping for pregnancy tests, we don't know.

According to Perez Hilton:

Sunday afternoon, Unfitney paid a visit to the Betsey Johnson store at the Westfield Fashion Square mall in Sherman Oaks, where she and paparazzo boy toy Adnan Ghalib caused quite a commotion.

Brit Brit grabbed dresses from the racks and disappeared into a dressing room with Adnan.

Moments later, Spears came out completely naked, shocking salesclerks, Life & Style reports.

"I was blown away. Britney's private parts were right in front of me!" a store employee tells the mag.

It's not like we haven't all seen it already!

"I grabbed a dress to cover her and she screamed, 'Get away from me! Don't you fucking come near me!' says the employee. "Then she disappeared in the dressing room with Adnan for 45 minutes. They were making weird noises. It was disgusting."

She was probably farting in his face. He likes that.

When Britney and Adnan finally stumbled out, Spears mumbled something unintelligible. "I couldn't understand a word she was saying. She was slurring and spitting, and talking with a British accent," says the employee. "Her face was covered with cold sores and acne, and her scalp was patchy. I wanted to help her, but she was so mean that I left her alone. Then she muttered, 'Fuck you!' and left the store."

If that's not hormones (hormones jacked up on caffeine and random pharmaceuticals and shaken with a spritz of psycho, mind you), I don't know what is.

Is Britney Spears Pregnant With Adnan's Baby?

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 16 Jan 2008 18:35:00 GMT

These pictures are surfacing of Britney Spears buying a pregnancy test with boyfriend/hanger-on Adnan Ghalib. In an attempt to deny the obvious, tragic thought that Spears is pregnant by a man she's only known for three weeks, I came up with some other reasons why she might be buying a pregnancy test:

Those EPT sticks are great for stirring Frappuccinos
Adnan's been sick, and she thought they were thermometers
She's sending it to Jamie Lynn. You know, as a joke.
Pregnancy test? She thought they were birth control. EPT sounds so much like IUD
Valentine's Day is coming. She's sending one to every 16-year-old in Kentwood, Louisiana

Britney Spears’ Visitation Rights Suspended Indefinitely

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 01:31:00 GMT

At the court hearing that Britney never made it to, Commissioner Scott Gordon ruled that Spears will not have visitation rights restored, at least not until the next hearing on February 19.

Among the witnesses who reportedly testified today were two LAPD officers, court monitors Pamela Strong and Lisa Hacker and Spears' former bodyguard Lonnie Jones. There are differing accounts on whether Kevin Federline or his attorney testified.

Bite Marks And Bruises On Jayden James Spears

HerBadMother — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 12:58:00 GMT

I really, really, really hope that this amounts to nothing more than normal toddler wear and tear.

According to Usmagazine.com, bite marks and bruises were found on Jayden James when the police investigated the Spears household last week. A bodyguard reported that the bite mark came from Jayden's brother, Preston, but the bruises were unaccounted for.

The story:

Usmagazine.com has learned that when police arrived at Britney Spears' Beverly Hills home on Jan. 3 to investigate her custody dispute with Kevin Federline they discovered that her youngest son, Jayden James, had at least one bite and several bruises on his body.

According to a source, the LAPD report of the incident, which ended with Spears being transported to a nearby hospital for psychiatric evaluation, says that when officers arrived that evening Spears responded by yelling at them to get out of her house. Police outside the home peered through a window and saw Spears cradling Jayden in a bathroom and observed that he was not in any immediate danger.

The source says that, though at first police threatened to break down the bathroom door, they soon learned that the door was in fact not locked and the officers were able to open the door and enter the bathroom.

After observing the bite mark and bruises on the child, police were then told by Federline's bodyguard, who had been at the home to pick up the kids, that the injuries were on Jayden before the child had even arrived at Spears' home earlier in the day, and that his older brother, Sean Preston, had actually bitten him.

I so hope that's all that it is. Not that life is all cuddles and lollipops for those kids, but really: I hope that, at least, they're as physically safe as they can be.

Dr. Phil Cancels Britney Program

HerBadMother — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 20:10:00 GMT

Dr. ~~Evil~~ Phil has cancelled plans to dedicate an episode of Dr. Phil Now to the recent traumas undergone by Britney Spears.

Speaking in terms of profound understatment, he said that the situation was "too intense:"

"As was widely reported this weekend, at the request of concerned family members, I visited Britney Spears in the hospital. The details of that visit will, of course, remain private," he said in a message online.

"We had planned to tape a Dr. Phil Now show today, focusing not on the tabloid side of Britney's latest problems, but instead on the very serious issues surrounding this case. Clearly, it is not just Britney's family struggling to find a way to protect adult children who cannot be ordered or compelled to seek help.

"Because the Spears situation is too intense at this time, and out of consideration to the family, I have made the decision not to move forward with the taping at this particular time.

"Britney and her family are in our prayers, and we ask that they be in yours."

Right. For 'the Spears situation is too intense,' read, 'I took too much shit for imposing my evil self upon Britney and her family at a sensitive time.' At least he's backed off, for now. Small mercies.

K-Fed Worried About Sons' Safety After Britney's Release From Hospital

sweatpantsmom — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 16:05:00 GMT

Britney Spears' surprising, and seemingly premature release from the psych ward of Cedars Sinai Medical Center has Kevin Federline understandably "freaked out." Federline, who was awarded sole custody of sons Sean Preston and Jayden James on Friday after Britney's meltdown, is reportedly beefing up security at his Tarzana, Calif. home amidst fears that Spears will attempt to kidnap the boys.

A source close to Federline says, “Kevin is so worried that Britney will rush his house and try to grab the boys, just like she tried to do last February...The boys are safe for now, but Kevin feels Britney is clearly deranged, and there’s no telling what she’ll do."

The February incident that the source is referring to is an encounter in February, 2007 when Spears "drove to Kevin’s house three times and tried to wrestle her way inside to get her sons." When Federline refused to let her in Spears took out her frustration on a photographer's car by attacking it with an umbrella.

Britney: Suicide Attempt Or Drug Overdose

HerBadMother — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 14:23:00 GMT

Was it just a mental breakdown, as some sources are saying, or did Britney try to commit suicide, or OD on drugs? According to an insider at Cedars-Sinai, it's one or the other, or both. The source told US magazine that Britney's been designated 'special needs', which is reserved for attempted suicides and persons who have overdosed on drugs and need constant supervision.

The source also told US Magazine that no one on staff wanted to be responsible for her during her first night at the hospital:

With “special needs” patients, the hospital source said, “we watch them so they don’t hurt themselves and watch the people who come visit them to make sure they don’t pass anything to them.

“So we got a call to go have someone sit with her,” the source added. “None of us wanted to go sit with her.”

This tragedy just keeps getting more tragic. One almost hates to keep watching the story as it unfolds. Not that one is going stop watching, of course, but one could certainly feel badly while watching. And commenting.

sweatpantsmom — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 02:10:00 GMT

In an emergency court hearing earlier this afternoon, Kevin Federline was awarded sole physical and legal custody of his sons Jayden James and Sean Preston. Britney Spears' visitation rights were suspended after her standoff with police last night that ended with her being rushed to the hospital in an ambulance. Jayden was also taken to the hospital but later released to Federline.

Commissioner Scott Gordon, who presided over today's hearing ordered another hearing to be held on Jan. 14. Spears is being held at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in the psychiatric unit in a 72-hour mental lockdown.
