It’s Over! Britney and Kevin Settle

So much for seeing Britney Spears and Kevin Federline square off in court. The legal saga that has surrounded the reforming pop star and her wannabe rapper ex-husband for nearly two years is drawing to a close… for now. The former couple has reportedly reached a settlement in their prolonged and at times ugly custody battle over their two young sons. While the agreement has yet to be authorized by a judge, reports say Federline will retain sole custody of 2-year-old Preston and 1-year-old Jayden. Meanwhile, Spears who currently sees the boys three times a week (with one overnight visitation) … Continue reading

K-Fed–From Super Daddy to Sugar Daddy

The ladies love Kevin Federline’s big, fat… tips. And why not? Britney Spears’ ex recently rewarded a cocktail waitress with a $2,000 tip on a $365 meal tab. No word on what she did to deserve the huge bonus, but that’s fodder for another blog. This blog is all about the Benjamins and how purported pauper Federline is making like a king with his ex-wife’s money. Last week the Superior Court of California released K-Fed’s financial records detailing his spending habits between May 2007 and January 2008. The documents were collected in conjunction with the ongoing custody battle Federline is … Continue reading

Hollywood Dads—-Who Are They Kidding?

It’s been more than a year since Ryan Phillippe and his Oscar-winning actress wife Reese Witherspoon split, but only now is the actor speaking out about life post-divorce. The 33-year-old father to the couple’s two children Ava, 8, and Deacon, 4 recently told USA Today that “it’s bizarre” to see photos of his ex-wife and her new boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal splashed on the pages of entertainment publications. No word on how he feels seeing them together in person. Phillippe told the newspaper that he goes out of his way to avoid looking at pictures of his ex and her new … Continue reading

Britney Spears—2008 Starts Off Less Than Great

So much for a new year, a clean slate, and a fresh start… Popwreck Britney Spears entered 2008 as pathetically as she exited 2007… and things don’t look as if they will be improving any time soon. For starters, yesterday Ms. Meltdown’s latest lawyer, Sorrell Trope, filed a court document asking a judge to remove him from Spears’ ongoing custody case with ex-husband Kevin Federline. “There has been a breakdown in communications between (Spears) and Trope & Trope (law firm) making further representation of her interests impossible,” says the document. Basically, Trope quit. Though an attorney cannot simply withdraw from … Continue reading

Kevin and Britney… Get Ready To RUMBLE!

Get ready for round two (or is it three or four—I’ve lost count) in the custody battle over ex-Fed’s Britney Spears and Kevin Federline’s two young sons. It seems the pop princess’ recent finger-lickin’ (then wiping) chicken grease episode has prompted Federline to speed dial his attorney and request full custody of the couple’s sons, 1-year-old Sean Preston and 10-month-old Jayden James. According to OK! Magazine, which was first to report Brit’s latest meltdown, Federline is “taking legal steps to seek sole custody of the boys.” Now here’s where it gets interesting. According to the magazine, Federline is getting help … Continue reading

Kevin Federline—“Great Dad?”

In what altered universe do Kevin Federline and the words “great father” go hand-in-hand? Apparently, in the same one where his estranged wife goes mad, shaves off all her hair, gets tattooed, and attacks photographers’ cars with golf umbrellas. Alas, it’s true. During a popular L.A.-based morning radio show, the words “great father” were used by a DJ to describe K-Fed in the days since Spears checked into rehab. Shockingly, the DJ wasn’t joking. The reference to K-Fed was made last week after news agencies reported that he drove to the Malibu rehab center where Spears is being treated. Federline … Continue reading

Celebrity Pregnant or Not

Don’t believe Ryan Seacrest, Britney Spears is NOT pregnant. Huh? If you missed the memo, apparently the “American Idol” host dropped the Britney pregnancy bomb on his Los Angeles radio show Wednesday morning, insisting the news came from a “reliable source.” Not “reliable” enough for Spears’ camp because now the singer’s manager is blasting Seacrest for sparking a “complete rumor.” The former derailed popstar is already the mother of two young sons, 3-year-old Sean Preston, and 2-year-old Jayden James, with ex-husband Kevin Federline. However, Spears’ rep says Britney is not planning to add to her family anytime soon. (Despite the … Continue reading

Get a Piece of Britney

Why not? Everyone else is… or has… While I realize there are many of you who would rather not even see the name Britney Spears let alone have it attached to something you wear, know this: it’s helping the environment. Yes, you can help save the planet by shelling out a few bucks to own clothing items worn by the pop star during her recent guest appearance on CBS’ “How I Met Your Mother.” About a half dozen items of clothing (how many scenes does she have anyway) will be auctioned off to benefit the Natural Resources Defense Council. The … Continue reading

Brit Scores a Small Bit on a TV Show and Gets an Allowance to Boot

Maybe she was jealous of her baby sister’s new TV role? Or, perhaps, Britney Spears has simply tired of her daily Starbucks and retail therapy routine. Either way the troubled pop star is heading back to the small screen. Ms. Meltdown just scored a guest role on CBS’s “How I Met Your Mother.” The last time the mother of two appeared on TV was in April 2006 when she played a conservative talk show host on an episode of NBC’s “Will & Grace.” Prior to that she and ex-husband Kevin Federline enjoyed a brief stint as reality TV stars on … Continue reading

Britney Reunited with Sons

Score another one for Britney Spears’ dad. The man who the troubled singer has publicly called a “bully” and once said she “can’t stand to be around” has come to her rescue—yet again. This time Jamie Spears, the temporary co-executor of her estate, helped get lawyers to hammer out a deal so the trainwreck could see her two sons for the first time in nearly two months. On Saturday Britney was finally reunited (briefly) with 2-year-old Sean Preston and 1-year-old Jayden James–her sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline. The last time Britney saw her boys was the night of January 3rd, … Continue reading
