Brit Flips Out

First she was buzzing, then she was wigging, and now -- well, now, she's just flipping. Britney Spears completely lost it Wednesday night, wildly swinging an umbrella at an empty SUV (owned, it seems, by a photographer), and looking like a completely out-of-control, deranged lunatic.

Brit went on the shocking rampage when, as TMZ told you yesterday, she visited Kevin Federline's house and he wouldn't let her in the door. Just a couple hours after her spasm of rage, says the New York Daily News, Spears was corralled by her mother Lynne, who enlisted the services of a bodyguard to get her to go back to Promises in Malibu for a third go-round at rehab. K-Fed then agreed to drop his emergency custody hearing, which was scheduled for Thursday morning.

Friends of Federline, quoted by the Daily News, say that the rapper "won't give up" on his fight to save his kids.

Pitt and Jolie – Adopting from Vietnam?


Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are trying to procure a fourth child, this time from Vietnam. Not content with one from Cambodia, one from Ethiopia, and another from the good ol' USA (though born in Namibia), the couple have filed papers with the US Citizenship and Immigration Services, says Us, to adopt a boy from the Tam Binh orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City, which is where they spent their Thanksgiving. The young fella would join brother Maddox (five) and sisters Zahara (two) and Shiloh (nine months) in the burgeoning Brangelina brood, which Pitt has joked about growing to the size of a soccer team.

Baron Cohen – No Borat, No Oscar Presenting


Sacha Baron Cohen has declined an invitation to present at Sunday's Academy Awards because, as the Los Angeles Times reports, show producers wouldn't allow him to appear as Borat Sagdiyev, the character that got him his Best Adapted Screenplay nomination -- and thus squelching any hope of unpredictability for the telecast. Baron Cohen, of course, gave one of the most side-splitting acceptance speeches in recent memory at the Golden Globes (rancid air pockets, anyone?) – and could still get his turn on stage if he wins – but Borat will just have to sit this one out.

Usher

Party Favors: Usher's Mom Disapproves of His Fiancee ... Cornell's Cash-Based Exit ... Cannon's Vegas Hitch


Usher's mother is "flipping out," says the New York Daily News, about his new fiancee, Tameka Foster, and Mother Usher (real name: Jonetta Patton) once even fired Foster as his stylist because she didn't like the way Foster made her soon look. ... Even in the world of hard rock, it's all about the Benjamins. A friend of Chris Cornell tells Page Six that you can forget about all the "artistic differences" and other nonsense that Cornell cited when he left Audioslave. Basically, he wrote all the music, but his bandmates shared equally in royalties, and Cornell wanted the loot for himself. Cornall's rep had no comment. ... Did Nick Cannon get married in Vegas? Us Weekly is saying that the Drumline star got hitched in Sin City, love chapel-style, to Victoria's Secret model Selita Ebanks. They've been dating only three weeks.

Brittney, Brittney, Brittney - She loved the attention she got while she was not wearing underpants; drinking; smoking; partying; partying and partying, now she wants the pap to back off??? What's a matter Brittney, its no fun when you get shot down by your ex and the whole world sees it? She has abandoned her babies because partying was more important - so was all the attention. Now she has a breakdown??? I do not feel sorry for her one bit, she should have gotten herself cleaned up a long time ago and her mother should have cared more about her after she started this erratic behavior instead of using Brit as a cash cow. She is acting like rehab is a joke - three times? She needs to be put in rehab and not be able to check herself out; of course she wouldn't get any attention would she?

It pisses me off to hear people referring to Britney's flip-out attack over Kevin! HELLOOO??!! Did you see the footage of the pap STALKING her ALL DAY LONG?! THEY ARE THE CRAZY ONE'S! How is it that they can chase her in a car and do all of that legally? If we did that, we'd be in jail in a heartbeat...I am confused.. It makes me sick to my stomach to see how these people torment the poor girl. I would have struck back a long time ago. I mean, she can't even sit at a stop light in her freakin' car without 40 people taking pictures and tapping on her windows! She's not making music, she's not making movies, she's obviously NOT trying to be an entertainer right now...so we should quit trying to find entertainment in watching her. Especially when it's watching her struggle. It's sick how people find enjoyment from other's pain. In the end, she's just a little girl who grew up too fast, was given too much $$ to her disposal, and put too much weight in other people's judgements of her. I feel really sorry for her....

This comment is regarding Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
Give them a break. Adopting a child is NOT procurring a child. Adopting is a beautiful way to build a family. WIth all of the negative things going on with celebrities, I would think you would find it refreshing to see a well adjusted, loving couple building their family.
I get so tired of the media, namely the tabloid media, making international adoption out to be a kin to being unpatriotic. As if a child not born in the US isn't worth it.
Brad and Angelina see the world in Global terms, not in the ethnocentric, egotistical way that many in the US see it. The poverty in other countries cannot be described unless you have seen it, and through my experience, I can tell you that, in general, a child in an internation orphanage is at a MUCH higher risk of dying or being seriously ill than a child in the US foster care system. In addition, the children in the orphanages in foreign countries are often malnourished, sensory deprived and face growth delays due to the conditions they are in. In some instances, it takes many months and years of therapy and hard work to get a child caught up to their peers. I, for one, commend Brad and Angelina for taking on the worlds neediest. But, if they are like me in any way, I know that they feel just as lucky to have those children as those children are lucky to have them.
I have 4 children. 3 of them were adopted internationally. Each child we adopted was done so with an enormous amount of love. I love all of my children, and would willingly give my life for any one of them.
So, Angelina and Brad are adopting again? Good for them. I wish them well.

Brad & Angelina:

I guess when you have the $$ you can afford to have an army of nannies taking care of all the children you acquire....

In regards to photos of the brood - why do we only see pics of the two adopted children & hardly ever see pics of them with all three?

Does everyone remember how Britney and Kevin got together(he left his pregnant girl for Britney). supposedly she went after him knowing about his relationship with Shar Jackson, all I can say is............. you reap what you sow! Now she's a crazy woman. What you do comes back to you.

Payback!

Get over it!!:  1816 days ago

Never thought I'd agree with 'a rats ass' but I do....LOL. Just back off already! Yeah yeah it goes with the job but she is being hounded CONSTANTLY...why can't they go pick on some else for awhile....oh yeah it's because you JERKS can't get enough of her misery and pain. Sure says a lot about you people....can't you just let her be and get the help she needs? You know, even though these people are famous and appear to be invincible, they do feel REAL emotions just like us.

Everyone makes mistakes........we're just lucky it's not in front of the world.

Leave Brit alone!!!
She is a sweet Southern girl who just needs some love and attention from her family right now. Kevin should try to console her through these tough times instead of locking her out of his house. He should be sweet to her , because she really needs that right now. Poor Britney.

F*^$ this spoiled little bitch. Has anyone given consideration to the fact that maybe this is why K-Fed was never home because he didn't want to deal with this little diva asswipe. Driving around with the kids on her lap and dropping them. She needs to be seperated from the kids. Scumbag.

The other day, there was a report that Angelina and Brad were going through couple counceling..to help them through some rough patches..and to deal with their apparent differences on what each other wants/needs out of their relationship.

The parents are the foundation to which a family builds on. It begins and ends with them. The children are the extension of that foundation. It is NOT fair to place the burden on innocent children to be the "glue" that holds that foundation together.


Now instead of rushing out trying to FIX the relationship, by adopting yet another child, and hoping THAT keeps their relationship strong or "fixes what is broken", they should, as the ADULTS here, be working out their differences for the both of them, as well as for the sake of those children they have already been blessed with.

They need to leave her alone for christ sake!!! She does not want the attention she's trying to stay as far away from the old brit as possible. She needs to stay at her home with her mom and hide out for awhile. What person wouldn't freak out with people laughing at you all the time. Lets lay off her please she's still a kid she never got to b a teenager like the rest of us.

You bring up a great point......why is it just the women.....and the younger and more screwed up the better. I guess it's what we've become...we eat this shit up everyday. Look at the Real World on MTV, remember Paris...oh prob not ...cause there were no drunkin sluts, but I'm sure they fixed that poblemand the new ones have plenty. We love to watch people act like fools and then act as if we're perfect and judge them on a website where we're completely anonymous.

Britney Spears:  1816 days ago

The paparazzi are the scum of the earth.

Leave the celebrities alone about their private lives.

Stop taunting people to get a reaction out of them just so you can make money off of their misery.

You are all the lowest form of "life" on the planet...right below the amoeba.

You should all rot in hell.
