Britney Smokes Mel Out

So last night, Britney Spears went into a cigar shop -- no, this isn't another shameless Monica Lewinsky joke. She actually went there to meet up with Mel Gibson.

As she went in, Brit kept saying she was scared. Well, meeting Malibu royalty can be intimidating.

Britters saying she's scared in front of the cameras is a bad sign. That's what she kept saying during the height of her cookoo stage.

OK. So let's see ...

Britney Spears walks into a store.

Mel Gibson walks into what is allegedly the same store.

This is supposedly a cigar store.

Britney says something about being scared.

The whole video lasts 17 seconds.

Why in the wild, world of sports would Mel Gbison meet Brit-Brit in a freaking cigar store? Somebody planning on rolling out a few blunts? Just asking.

Is "I'm scared" code for her bodyguards that people are too close? She used to say that a lot when she was tilting wildly out of control. Why would she say that out loud so often?

Why, you're right! (slapping forehead)

How could we have missed the fact that this isn't actually a trashy, third-grade-level celebrity gossip site run by sub-human throwbacks such as Harvey Levin, but rather, it's an in-depth source of intelligent and erudite commentary about politics and all things that are vitally important in today's changing world.

Silly me. I should go to the Washington Post if I want cowardly, back-stabbing character assassination about all the celebrities that the panting, drooling, mentally retarded editor is desperately jealous of.

=====================================

I used to think that the race to the bottom for the 'honor' of being the trashiest family in America was a race between the Spears family and the Hilton family.

However, with Britney out of her crazy phase, and Paris not doing anything outrageous enough to get much coverage, it looks like the new contenders are the Hogans and the Lohans. The Lohans gain points for having a reality program to promote their trashy status, but it looks like the Hogans truly are the people to beat as far as trashy is concerned.

And it becomes more apparent by the day that Britney's career is over. Not only her music career, but her career as a tabloid media personality. She used to be the epitome of Tabloid 'A' list -- now, she's barely worth a mention.

More than 24 hours and only 11 (now 12) posts? I guess Britney really is done.

Using TMZ's coverage as an indicator for determining whether someone is "done" is a hugely misguided effort. They are focusing on trivial nonsense such as Britney's freckles and her less-than-ten-second walk from a car to a building. However, there recently has been some substantive news concerning her which TMZ has completely ignored:

-- Sam Lutfi recently tried to get the restraining order lifted, and his request was denied.

-- Britney's conservators were recently told that they're required to submit a business plan for her estate by mid-June.

-- Also, Commissioner Reva Goetz will be getting a preliminary report on Britney's medical and psychological condition on June 17, in advance of the July 31 deadline on which she will decide whether Britney's temporary conservatorship will lifted, or a more permanent conservator will be appointed.

Why is the jealous character assassin Harvey Levin telling the mentally challenged third graders who work for him to not report this news?

What goes around will come around, Harvey:  1339 days ago

Why do I keep thinking of Hulk Hogan when I see the photo of Mel Gibson's face that TMZ included with this article?
