For a while, Kevin Federline looked like the better half of the disastrous parental team involving ex-wife Britney Spears. But as Spears carefully makes her comeback -- makeovers, new leases on life, new records, the works! -- Federline's "heroic single dad" stint appears to be drawing to a close.
Instead of amicably agreeing to allow her to take the boys on tour with her ...
... he has amicably agreed to allow her to take the boys on tour IF she's willing to pay him. Money. Like $10,000 per show date. Interesting, Kevin, we thought child support payments went the other way around.
Let's tackle one more topsy-turvy legal matter: the artist who created perhaps what will be the iconic image of this era is taking to court the guy that wanted to take him to court in a copyright infringment case. Shepard Fairey, whose "Hope" poster used an image of Barack Obama from an Associated Press photo, went to court asking a judge to not let photographer Mannie Garcia sue him for use of the image. Fairey and the AP had been close to a monetary settlement before Garcia decided to sue Fairey. We're just glad we never spilled coffee on our "Hope" T-shirt. It'll be worth a fortune someday (right?).
Good news, Catholics! Plenary indulgences are back! If you don't know what that means, you're probably under 50 and you're not alone. Just think of it like this: real estate in hell just got a whole lot cheaper.
But there still room for this guy.
Clearly on the fast-track to heaven is 26-year-old Canadian Tanya Neumeyer, who is standing on street corners in Toronto this month hugging the stuffing out of anyone who needs her.
If you think the Dalai Lama is following you on Twitter, well, you're wrong. It was an imposter. Sorry 'bout that. His tweets felt almost as good as a hug though, didn't it?
Big surprise. StarCaps don't work, aren't good for you and contain suspicious ingredients, including strong drugs. Somebody should tell Kathie Lee Gifford.
Here we go: while research shows that even one binge-drinking episode during pregnancy can cause alcohol-related defects in the baby, taking zinc during pregnancy might negate all that.
Finally, politics is getting interesting again. Fans of porn star Stormy Daniels are pushing her to run for Senate in Louisiana in 2010, the seat now held by porn consumer Republican David Vitter. Sure, why not.
