Britney and Her Mom Reunite

And they said it would never happen… Could it be? Could Britney Spears finally be coming to her senses? She will be if her mama has anything to say about it. In what the entertainment world is deeming a “miracle” of sorts, Ms. Meltdown’s mom, Lynne Spears (along with youngest daughter and Brit’s baby sis Jamie Lynn) flew from Kentwood, Louisiana to Los Angeles Friday evening to reunite with Britney. The reunion follows a bitter 8-month long estrangement that was initiated by Britney when her mom dropped her off at rehab earlier this year. The mother-daughter parting was further aggravated … Continue reading →

How Close Is Britney To Losing Her Kids?

Note to Britney Spears: If you haven’t already noticed, things are not looking good for you. Yesterday was a bad day for the former Mousekeeter and today doesn’t look any better. If you missed the crawls at the bottom of every news channel on TV, Brit-Brit’s manager and attorney dumped her less than 24 hours ago. A double dumping—-less than four hours apart from each other–that may be a new record. According to the singer’s now former manager (she’s bled through at least three since her infamous meltdowns), he was “saddened” (yeah, right) to confirm that he and Brit parted … Continue reading →

BRITNEY’S NEW GIG In what may be the worst kept secret in Hollywood, MTV has confirmed that Britney Spears has been recruited to open the network’s Video Music Awards this Sunday in Las Vegas. The 25-year-old train wreck will try to get her life back on track by performing “Gimme More” – the first single from her upcoming album.

Hollywood Depos Galore

If he hasn’t rued the day he agreed to work for Britney “train wreck” Spears yet, then he probably is now. Daimon Shippen, bodyguard and manny for Spears’ two young sons, was served with a deposition subpoena related to the singer’s ongoing custody battle with her ex-husband Kevin Federline. The dark-haired child helper is just one member of Spears’ inner circle to be served with papers relating to the custody war over Sean Preston, 23 months, and Jayden James, 11 months.

Star Updates: Speedy Nuptials, Speedy Recoveries and More

Speeding Nuptials Spice Girl Melanie Brown is back in the headlines again. No, she’s not lunching with any more of Eddie Murphy’s former love interests; rather she’s raising eyebrows for getting hitched to her own love interest. According to Brown’s rep, the singer secretly married her boyfriend, Stephen Belafonte, in Las Vegas two months ago. According to friends of the couple, the pair has known each other for years, but things turned romantic when Brown became pregnant with Murphy’s baby. According to Brown, Belafonte (no relation to singer Harry Belafonte) was a “tremendous support” to her during her pregnancy. The … Continue reading →

Hell Hath No Fury As TWO Women Scorned

Eddie Murphy may want to think twice before making enemies with any more former flames. Judging by the recent solidarity shown by ex-wife Nicole Murphy (mother to five of his children) and ex-girlfriend Melanie Brown (mother to his infant daughter), the actor may want to add extra security. I’m kidding… about the security, but not about the recent bonding that has been going on between Murphy and Brown. The ladies recently lunched together at the paparazzi friendly Beverly Hills eatery the Ivy last week and were documented by at least 100 photographers exchanging kisses before departing. I don’t think it … Continue reading →

Celebrity Cheapskates

I’m sure you are familiar with the phrase: “To Whom Much is Given, Much is Expected.” Apparently, either some of Hollywood’s biggest names are not as familiar with the saying or they simply choose to ignore it. Case in point, online forums are buzzing with the low down on the latest list of celebrity cheapskates. Topping the list… two names that shocked me: Katie Holmes and new BFF Victoria Beckham. It appears that Mrs. Moneybanks, pardon me, Mrs. Tom “Moneybanks” Cruise, is only generous to people she works with… forget about the people who simply work for a living. According … Continue reading →
