In my previous post I joked that Britney was acting out to get the tabloid attention lavished on her sister back on her wacky self. Turns out, Britney called Jamie Lynn that night with the tabloids in mind:You're not going to be the only fucking Spears on the front cover of a magazine next week!
In the ongoing Spears vs. Spears smackdown, elder sister Britney takes the lead over Jamie Lynn with her headline stealing overnight showstopper:Britney Spears entered a new chapter in her troubled life, surrounded by paparazzi and police wanting to know more about a three-hour showdown involving her young sons.With all the fucking papps on the prems, you'd think we'd get a clearer shot. Jamie Lynn, you're up! Or maybe Mama Rose, I mean Spears, wants in on this actiones des hot messes?The pop star was taken away in an ambulance late Thursday after police were called to her house to help end the standoff.
"For her own welfare, she was transferred to a local hospital for medical treatment," Officer April Harding said early Friday, declining to elaborate. No injuries were reported.

Daily Mail:Heroes star Hayden Panettiere is said to be dating her co-star Milo Ventimiglia, who at 30, is 12 years older than the 18-year-old actress.He doesn't look 30 and she doesn't look 18. Oh well. They sure are pretty...
Queen Elizabeth II becomes Britain's oldest-ever monarch on Thursday, beating the record of Queen Victoria.shanghaiist (from a year ago):Victoria, born on May 24, 1819, lived for 81 years and 243 days.
Buckingham Palace, calculating longevity down to the hour, said Elizabeth would move past Victoria at about 5 p.m. Thursday — 12 p.m. ET.
China announced yesterday it is tightening its adoption rules for foreigners. Starting May 1, the following groups of people will not be allowed to take home a Chinese child:
- Unmarried
- Homosexual
- Obese
- Disfigured
- On anti-depressants
We want to be clear we are in no way insinuating that Harvey Fierstein (pictured) is disfigured or on anti-depressants.
If 19-year-old Casey Aldridge really is the father and the baby was conceived in Spears' home state of Louisiana, the act could technically be considered "felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile" - defined as "sexual intercourse with consent between someone age 19 or older and someone between age 12 and 17".Update: Baby Daddy just a baby. No felony at least.
There's also a recent interview with Casey's uncle that makes it clear Casey is 18, not 19, and that he's just a month less than two years older than Jamie Lynn. That means that their relationship would not be classified as statutory rape in Louisiana, but that it is legally a misdemeanor in California.
25 years after her debut single, "Everybody", Madonna has proven she's more than "ravaged-tart trappings" and gets a place in history...Good news! Madonna will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, in March, in her first year of eligibility. (25 years in the business is the minimum.) Former female inductees (or bands with female artists) include Patti Smith, Blondie, The Pretenders, The Ronettes, Bonnie Raitt, Dusty Springfield, The Staples Singers, Joni Mitchell, Mahalia Jackson, Gladys Knight and the Pips, The Shirelles, Janis Joplin, Martha and the Vandellas, Etta James, Ruth Brown, Dinah Washington, Ike and Tina Turner, LaVern Baker, Ma Rainey, Bessie Smith and Aretha Franklin. Please note than many of these women are soul, R&B or folk singers -- pop or rock? Hard to come by. [Rolling Stone]Flashback to this quote from Kurt Loder's Rolling Stone review in 1984:
Madonna’s bare-bellied, fondle-my-bra image is strictly bimbo city, and of course it sells--this debut album was one of the year’s longest-running hits. Take away the ravaged-tart trappings and there’s nothing else to talk about.Here's to 25 years of "nothing else to talk about"!! Congratulations, Madonna. A tear :)
love how fucking shit it is. little do they know they r watchin like the fuking queen of all time. love her. x
