Bad Brit, Bad Brit, Whatcha Gonna Do?

HerBadMother — Fri, 13 Jul 2007 19:34:00 GMT

What was it that I said last time about Britney? That I really don't like ragging on her parenting skills? Well, if that's true - and it may not be entirely true - then I'm apparently going to have a rough ride as a gossip blogger. For one, because Britney provides us with evidence of her, um, deficiencies in the lifeskills department every day, and for another, because people just keep popping up to assure us that that evidence is indeed exactly what it seems.

To wit: X17 is reporting that Britney's current stay with kids and boyfriend/manny/caveman at the Bev Hills Four Seasons Hotel (shown above, on hotel balcony) is entirely due to the fact that her Bel Air and Malibu mansions are being investigated as unsafe by Child Protection Services. Apparently, whatever safety features are installed around her swimming pools are significantly sub-par.

Celebrity Baby Blog is asking its readers whether Brit-Brit is being unfairly targetted by the CPS. I say, if Brit were some run-of-the-mill single mom in social housing out partying all night and shunning underwear and not using car seats and failing to keep a safe home, she'd have had her kids taken away long before now. If the rumors are untrue, fine, but if they aren't? Someone's got to talk some sense to that girl.

Sarah McLachlan Gives Birth To Baby Girl

HerBadMother — Sun, 01 Jul 2007 18:34:00 GMT

That is, we think so. Celebrity Baby Blog is reporting that Sarah McLachlan gave birth to another baby girl last week, but the birth hasn't been announced by any official representatives.

If she has had the kid, and just isn't saying anything, that is just, like, waaay too traditionally Canadian of her. Laying low and all that. Doesn't she know that pop stars are supposed to share everything but the afterbirth with the media? You just know that if Nelly Furtado gets pregnant again she'll have a press conference in the delivery room and then maybe get Timbaland to do a video with her while she's pushing. And Celine Dion did everything but get the Canadian federal government to issue new stamps when her kid was born. Sarah's gotta get with the program if she wants keep up with the new standard of Canadian fame-whorage.

Then again, maybe there's just no baby yet. Or, maybe - gasp - Sarah's not a fame whore. Could it be possible?

God, this gossip bizness makes one cynical.

Britney Spears is/has a Crazy Mother...

Whit Honea — Tue, 26 Jun 2007 21:03:00 GMT

According to AHN, Britney Spears is filing a restraining order against her mother. She is taking this step to keep her mom, Lynne, away from her two sons. She claims that her mother is abusing prescription pain medication and Britney doesn't want her spending time with her boys, Sean Preston and Jayden James.

This concerns me, because who would be with the boys then? I see hundreds of pictures of Britney every day, and do you know why we don't use them here at FameCrawler? Because she never has her kids with her. She has Uggs, nipples and big, stupid glasses, but no babies.

Not only is she mad at her mother for having an alleged problem, but she is deciding to shun her rather than take the steps to help her like Lynne and (gulp!) K-Fed did, sort of, when the tables were turned.

She blames her mom and K-Fed for putting her in rehab, yet she still lets her boys (and her girls too, nudge, nudge) go over to their daddy's place without concern. Which is, of course, concerning. As you can see, I have nothing but concern for this family. Actually, I really am concerned for the boys. I hope someone steps up and provides these kids some shelter and a bit of sanity.

The scary thing is I'm looking at you K-Fed.

Jolie, Pitt-Jolie, and Pitt, in Walking in the Rain

Whit Honea — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 23:01:00 GMT

Angelina, Maddox and Brad on their way to pick up Pax and Zahara from school at the American Embassy in Prague, Czech Republic. There's a video as well. Listen to the sound of the cameras before they are slowed by the rain. I don't know how the Jolie-Pitt posse does it.

Christina Aguilera, Admit It Woman: Pregnancy Watch 2007

Whit Honea — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 22:32:00 GMT

Look Christina, you know you're pregnant. We know you're pregnant. Why don't we drop this silly charade and admit it already. You're being a tease.

I bet that's the first time you've ever heard that, isn't it?

Larry Birkhead Reveals Superpowers

HerBadMother — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 19:04:00 GMT

We all know that most dads are superheroes, and so it shouldn't come as a surprise that Larry Birkhead - just having received full legal custody of his daughter by the late Anna Nicole Smith - is claiming paternal superpowers. He has, he says, "a supersonic sense of smell when it comes to diapers." Which is really useful for smelling things that travel faster than the speed of sound, like post-banana baby turds.

But Larry's "supersonic" sense of smell isn't the truly remarkable thing about Larry. No, the truly remarkable thing about Larry is that he has three hands: you can usually find him, he says, "with (one) hand on the baby, a hand on the cell phone, (and) a hand on the diaper." Three hands, people. Three hands.

Now we know why Anna Nicole liked him so much.

What's the Limit on TomKatSuri Posts in One Day?

Whit Honea — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 20:02:00 GMT

Katie and Suri hitting the beach. Katie is not doing anything to discourage the pregnancy rumors. That suit is only worn by two kinds of women, old or pregnant, and despite her hair, she isn't old.

Suri, Daughter of a Preacher Man

Whit Honea — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 19:05:00 GMT

Katie, the bump, the mom shag, Tom, and Suri, are seen here getting ready to descend to our level. Apparently Tom "Top Gun" Cruise has reached the highest level of crazy, and can, and may, perform wedding ceremonies.

The top level is called 'Clear' or 'The Larry Bird' to some people. Some people being me and Michael Jordan.

I actually performed a wedding ceremony for some friends this past summer, so I have some advice for Tom: Stand on a phone book so the people in the cheap seats can see you. They're paying good money you know.

Lock Up Your Couches: TomKat May Be Preggos Again

Whit Honea — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 17:02:00 GMT

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, might, MIGHT, be expecting again. The source for this is The Sun, which is like saying the source for this is the guy on the subway. They are going with all of the staples here, the bump, the desire, the haircut.

Stay tuned!

Baby BoratS?

Whit Honea — Tue, 19 Jun 2007 14:01:00 GMT

There is some speculation amongst us speculators that Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen may be having not one, but two Baby Borats. This is based solely on rumor and the loose-lipped talk of a shopkeeper that said Isla came in and bought two of everything. In pink. Baby Borettes?

Lisa Bonet Expecting Child With Different Hot Dude With Dreads

BadKitty — Mon, 18 Jun 2007 15:14:00 GMT

Here's Lisa Bonet, little Denise Huxtable, very pregnant with her third child. She is walking the streets of New York with daughter Zoe Kravitz, progeny of Lenny Kravitz (warning, opens with his music,) Lisa's original hot dude with dreads. That was a quick 18 years, wasn't it?

Lisa's new partner, Jason Momoa, is presumably the father of this one. Turns out he's totally hot most of the time, but the first picture I pulled up of him, I was all "Ah! Hide Sigmund! It's Burp! Or Slurp!" Good thing I kept looking and found his page on the Most Beautiful Man site.

Lucky Lisa! She's doing pretty well with the whole eugenics thing. And c'mon, quite likely in the baby-making thing too. Remember her in Angel Heart? She knows a position or two...hundred.
