Britney's Mom, Lynne Spears Says She's Responsible For Her Daughter's Troubles

Sassy Smith — Fri, 09 Nov 2007 12:02:00 GMT

Lynne Spears, Brit's mom has told Life & Style Weekly magazine that she's to blame for her daughter's troubles. "I blame myself, what mother wouldn't?"

Spears says, "I wish I'd been there more while she was touring, But I couldn't be. I had the other kids to look after." Lynne has 2 other children with ex husband, Jamie Spears, one of them being another celeb child, Jamie Lynne, star of Zoey 101. "I didn't raise my children to have Hollywood careers. This all just exploded in my face, and big dreams became big headaches." Ah ya, "big headaches" is sort of an understatement. Those big headaches though haven't stopped Spears from writing a book which is set to be released just in time for Mother's Day. 'Pop Culture Mom: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World' will be out May 11th. Seems like Mama Spears doesn't mind raking in some dough penning her woes concerning her children, namely Britney.

Sure, of course Lynne (and dad Jamie) have some responsibility in how their daugher turned out, perhaps they could have made better choices as parents, and maybe they shouldn't have shoved their daughter into the big bad spotlight at such an early age. However, having said that, Britney Spears is a grown woman now...well she's biologically grown up anyway....with 2 young sons and it's about high time she pulled up her big girl panties (if she's wearing any) and got her sh*t together and took care of them.

Lynne Spears said she and Britney have started to mend their relationship and she's also confident that Britney and Kevin will get everything worked out. Um okay? Wonder how long that will last once the book comes out?

"You're Not A Popstar" Says Britney's Lawyer To The Judge

Sassy Smith — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 23:04:00 GMT

"You're not a popstar" ~~and neither is Britney anymore,ha~~. Now there's some high powered lawyer "talk". That's the statement that Brit's lawyer said to the judge. Ah huh, that's a pretty good argument. Good going bigwig lawyer. No wonder they pay you alot. Britney Spears' lawyer was in court today on her behalf because K'Fed'up's lawyer requested an emergency hearing on his client's behalf. Britney apparently is disregarding more court ordered drug testing and Federline is getting annoyed. Shocking.

Spears has been ordered to do 14 random drug tests but hasn't made it to at least eight of them. Her excuse? Well, there's the whole, "bad cell phone reception" and also, "popstars don't get up at 8am" according to Brit's lawyer, Anne Kiley. Well duh, of course they don't, even if they have young children to look after. Oh. Wait. Brit only gets one over night with her kids. My bad, forgot.

Neither Spears or Federline were in court today. She was probably sleeping or shopping or changing her outfit and he was probably working on his non hip hop career that doesn't bring in any income, therefore he has to get Britney to pay his $120,000 in legal fees. They're both shining stars aren't they? I am, however sad as it is to say, on team Federline, regardless of how pitiful that is. I know, that's shameful but really, look at my options.

No agreement was reached today and both sides will be back in court on Tuesday at noon. The custody agreement stays as is for now with the exception of Britney having to let her lawyer know when she changes her cell phone number, which she allegedly does alot. She changes her number more than she changes her underwear for petesake! Oh. Ya. She doesn't wear any. Scratch that. Anyway, Brit's lawyer will then let Kevin's lawyer know the new cell number and then K'Fed's lawyer lets the drug testing people know, so they in turn can call Britney on her new cell phone number. Dizzy yet?

Britney's Album Blackout, Beat Out By The Eagles Album

Sassy Smith — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 17:01:00 GMT

Britney Spears' new album Blackout didn't hit # 1 as predicted. *Gasp*

The Eagles new album, titled, Long Road out of Eden, has beat Brit's predicted # 1 spot, and sold 711,000 units, according to Billboard.com, this compared to Spears' album, Blackout, which only sold about 290,000 copies.

I'm ~~totally not shocked~~ absolutely shocked. Can you feel the shock in my writing? This girl has had every opportunity to promote her album, work her butt of to make a "comeback" and yet, she's chosen to spend her time drinking Frappiccinos, wearing the same ugly boots and go chandelier shopping. I'd understand if she was putting all of her energy into her children, Sean Preston and Jayden James but again, she doesn't put any kind of effort into being a decent parent either!

Brad Pitt Shares Details and I Solicit Money

Whit Honea — Sun, 02 Sep 2007 12:29:00 GMT

Brad Pitt is forever young. Damn, the guys got a few years on me but could pass for younger, and I still get carded for brews. We are both strikingly handsome.

Details magazine has an interview with Brad in the latest issue. Just Jared was kind enough to share part of it, and we'll do the same.

On Paris Hilton and her celebrity: “This Paris Hilton quest for fame… she’s blissfully oblivious.”

On the things that scare him: “The only thing that frightens me today is something happening to my kids or something happening to Angie.”

On taking things to the limit: “Listen, I’ve always embraced extremes, so it doesn’t feel odd to me.”

While Take it to the Limit is a great Eagles song, I'm guessing he's alluding to going heavy on the kids. Remember, they want 15 or something crazy like that. Hell, good for them, they've got the resources and the heart to help some kids, why not?

Here's my segue into the rest of us helping kids. Tonight is the MDA telethon. It's a good cause. Give what you can.
