Lets Get This Party Started
Brit Keeps Toys Ready for the Boys

Even though Britney Spears was just denied in her bid to get some form of visitation with her sons, as TMZ reported yesterday, she's still hanging on to hope, no matter how slender it might be.

"[Brit] hasn't put the children's belongings away," says "an insider" to Us. "She desperately wants the kids. She cries about it." Apparently, K-Fed and even Brit's parents won't let the momwreck talk to the kids on the phone.

Kirstie Throwing Her Weight Around


Kirstie Alley has ditched Jenny Craig, and now she's decided to throw her own large-ish hat in the ring in the weight-loss-program sweepstakes.

The once-very-fat-now-not-so actress tells People that she's become an "accidental" role model for "millions of people" who are trying to shed pounds, even though she didn't really mean to. Now, of course, she's sufficiently branded so as to start her own program; Alley says she's hoping "to develop and pilot my own weight-loss brand," to launch in 2009. Heavy!

Party Favors: Lindsay's Mom: Nudie Pix are OK by Me... SKYY Is Limit for New "Sex" ... Man Confuses Madonna for Marilyn, Loses Out on Huge Jackpot


Lindsay Lohan's mom Dina doesn't have any problem with her 21-year-old daughter posing in the buff for New York magazine. "I look at them artistically," says Dina to People. ... Remember how Absolut Vodka had reportedly paid plenty to be part of a storyline in the original "Sex and the City" series? Well, TMZ has learned that SKYY Vodka -- the one in the deep blue bottle -- will be the official booze of the film version. ... Lawrence Nicastro, the New York retiree who thought he'd found a priceless shot of Marilyn Monroe and even scheduled a presser to unveil it? Turns out it was actually Madonna, and it's readily available online.

16. I don't, by any stretch of the imagination, view Kirstie Alley as a role model. And if she were, how would it be "accidental" when she joined up to do ads for Jennry Craig. Also, I don't think she is a weight loss success at all. She yo-yo's too much, and is overweight. I can't see anyone buying what she would be selling.

17. Kirstie is no role model. She's still fat and seems to be getting fatter.
Who in their right mind would pay money for her weight loss program????

18. Can't scientology magically help Kirstie Alley with her fat ass?

19. While Britney Spears has developed a devoted following among the children she teaches dance at North Hollywood's Millennium Dance Complex, her own sons may have moved on.

Sean, 2, and Jayden, 17 months, haven't seen their mother since the night of January 3, when she was involuntarily committed to the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center psych ward. (Relive Spears' days with her boys here.)

Spears' sons now stay full-time with ex Kevin Federline. "They have not been asking about Britney," a Federline source tells Us Weekly in its latest issue.

Nor do the adults in their life – their father, their grandparents, and the nanny – talk about mom. "They don't want to get them riled up," the source says. "They just keep them focused on activities."

Though an insider tells Us that Federline and Spears' parents won't let Britney speak on the phone to her sons either, she remains focused on her sons.

"She desperately wants the kids," a family source tells Us. "She cries about it."

"She hasn't put the children's belongings away," an insider said. "Her home has pictures of her kids everywhere. She loves them very much."

Despite the separation from her children and her ongoing legal woes, Spears' life is changing for the better. "There's been a real change in how she is because she has been smothered in love," a family source tells Us. "To suddenly know after all this time that she has support has been incredible for her."

"She knows that something is wrong with her," a source tells Us. "She knows that something can't quite be right because of the sheer fact she's separated from her kids."

Check out the latest issue of Us Weekly for more on Britney's life under her parents' rule and her children's days away from her.


She's doing better but can't talk to her kids !!!

20. It's interesting when I read all the 'amazing' things that Scientology has done for people ... yet, they haven't seemed to conquer the weight loss arena. Maybe Kirstie should chew on that one for a while.

Perhaps Federline and Britney's parents understand what you seem to be missing...Britney is unstable. I agree that it is a real shame that she isn't able to see the children, a shame for the kids anyway. However, they are privy to her behavior and speech and if Britney is inappropriate (odd accents???) she will do more harm than good by speaking to the children. They need stability more than anything else right now.

26. She's on tv all the time talking about how much weight she's lost but she still looks fat! Who would be dumb enough to buy her products?

27. Well, Lohan is no Marilyn Monroe.......and Brit needs much more time to get better. Looks to me she is still where she was when they took the boys away. Don't sit around and cry. Do somethin about it.

28. Her prents are stopping her from seeing/talking to her kids until she is admitted into a hospital...Blackmail anyone ??

29. Kirstie needs to find something to do with her life, but I think it's a problem as she seems to have no real interests or skills. She lost some weight on Jenny Craig and now apparently thinks she's a nutritionist and her only role in life is to obsess about her body. When she went on Oprah in a bikini to flaunt losing a few pounds, it was disgusting as she still looked terrible and yet the message she was sending is that she is very superficial and needs to show off her body, but she doesn't have an ability to look in a mirror and see what she relly looks like -- which is not someone who should be parading around on TV like a stripper. So now she plans to rip off Jenny Craig, I guess, probably stealing their ideas (whcih aren't much but portion control and eating frozen dinners, anyone can do that who can buy Lean Cuisine). Kirstie really needs to find some real occupation and quit obsessing about her body, then maybe she could really lose weight if she found something to do.

As for Brit -- who knows the real story, we don't. Talking on the phone with someone can be very upsettting to kids if that person is saying wrong things or acting too emotional or skizoid or basically freaking them out. It could be that, but who knows. Also, some very vindictive and disurbed parents can talk to kids and tell them other people are doing all the bad things and are causing all the problems, and only that parent is the good one, etc. We don't know what Britney is saying to these kids or how she's acting, but she's not exactly a poster child for mental health.
