Britney: Wicker, We Hardly Knew Her!

Look at the old lady holding court! Wait, it's ...

Britney Spears had the best seat in the outhouse at Jamie Lynn's baby shower. She took over the wicker rocking chair, smoked a cigarette and chatted about the first time she was about to pop out her first boo boo.

241. Hey, (fans who think she can do no wrong)
You fuel the fire. "leave her alone!" you cry. Don't take it so personally.
She loves the attention.
Bad attention is better than no attention.
Now let britney go play her banjo and smoke her marlboros, oh wait britney can't play an instrument (or sing) she can dance I will give her that.

Oh well, today or tomorrow, there is another custody hearing. I don't expect that there will be any changes for the time being, since she is under a conservatorship until July 31st. I hope that she goes to the hearing and tells the judge that she "did this or that" to become a parent that deserves to at least have visitation with the children she gave birth to.

I've read that she is trying to get at least one overnight visitation a week with her sons. I, personally, don't think she is ready for this, at this point. Those boys seem happy without their "crazy" mom in their lives. Britney put them through a terrible ordeal, whether they can remember it or not.

I hope that the court system won't give her any overnight visitation until the conservatorship ends. She really needs to show the court that she is a mature adult, and is ready to parent the children in her charge.

243. 166. #163The Ya-Ya Sisterhood was about a group of strong beautiful Southern women who had a good time and enjoyed life when they were with each other....and dealt honestly (and sometimes painfully) with the screwy hand they had been dealt with by the mediocre men in their life....

Well, then I apologize to you. Without knowing that "Ya-Yas" reference, I thought you were just engaging in gratuitous bashing.

244. To #246: Damn, man! How could you possibly get the idea that anyone would engage in gratuitous bashing here?

246. How can you refer to innocent children, born in wedlock as booboo's? I have figured out that the education level of TMZ's "staff" is about 8th grade. It doe snot take a degree to snap pictures and write BS about people whose success you are terribly envious of. Show a little decency and leave the comments about the innocent children out fo your crappy smut. The adults are bif enough to defend themselves with lawyers, that is why you go after the kids, they hav eno recourse against you. How would you feel if these were your children that uneducated, unemployable creeeps were writing about?
Grow up TMZ and get at least a smidgen of class. Ha!!!! IMPOSSIBLE!

247. TMZ is NASTY. I'm no Britney fan but calling her first child a booboo reflects on the callousness of TMZ. Grow up!

248. It is completely inappropriate to have a baby shower for this girl - this whole pregnancy should not be celebrated and endorsed with parties and gifts, but kept low-key and private. The way this family continues to carry on with this is glamorizing young teenage pregnancy and how "beautiful and wonderful" it is when it is, in fact, a mistake that will negatively alter several lives (including the innocent baby). Let's parade our shame and have a party! You can't put lipstick on a pig, ladies and gentlemen, and expect it to be anything but a pig.

249. So, get over it..Haven't a lot of mother's enjoyed swapping stories of childbirth? By the way, all the chairs look comfortable.

250. As far as trailer trash comments, you can dress up a pig, but it is still just a pig. The Spears are trash, nothing more, nothing less.

Well, keep in mind that it would have been low key and private if the stalkers in the press didn't get wind of it. It's TMZ and other pap-smearers (i.e., paps who hunger to smear the reputations of others) who are splashing this news all over the media, not the Spears family.

Notice that Britney was able to get there without any paps getting pics of her in transit. This means that Papa Spears and the rest of the family did a good job of keeping the press away from her.

Also notice that the only pics that seem to be available of anything to do with the shower are from above and from a distance, which implies that the only way the stalkers could get the shots was via telephoto lens by helicopter, or possibly by climbing some very tall trees outside of the private property in which the shower took place. Copters are most likely.

So don't blame the family for the publicity. They seem to have made a huge effort towards preventing the peeping toms from getting close.

So I guess she should try to come up with all the stuff it takes to raise an infant by herself then instead of her family helping? Should she be banished to the attic and forced to wear a scarlet letter because she had a child out of wedlock? Maybe you haven't heard, it takes a village to raise a child. A teenage mother needs all the help she can get, there is nothing wrong with her family helping her. It isn't the child's fault that its mother was a teenager and unmarried, all babies deserve to be celebrated. I pray that you don't have children of your own with your vile attitude.

253. Personally, I think that since daddio took over adn assisted in freeing this girl from that Sam Lufti character - she truly seems to be getting and keeping it together. See how different a person can be when they aren't continuisly beening fed mind altering drugs in order to be kept dependent on someone? Good for her. She is dressed appropriately, spending a nice aftrenoon with her family. What is wrong with that?! I agree TMZ has balls to be so 'in your face' - but at least this time, it isn;t indecent.
