Britney Spears takes a break from her hectic schedule of misbehaving to do something radical this week: work!
She’s been busy guest-starring on the hit CBS show, How I Met Your Mother. Stepping into the shoes of a receptionist at a dermatologist’s office named “Abby,? has been “terrific,? reports Brit. “Everyone, including the cast, the crew and the producers, has been wonderful, and Abby is such a fun girl to play. I’m having a blast!?
Brit’s bit part took the cast by surprise. “We were literally just filming last week and told, ‘You’re not going to believe who just called and said they wanted to be on the show,’? recalled Emmy-winning lead Neil Patrick Harris.
Even more surprising - she’s no trainwreck! Co-star Alyson Hannigan admits she’s “quite impressed? with Britney’s acting.

More court documents in the ongoing custody battle between Britney Spears and Kevin Federline were released Thursday, which revealed some intimate details about their finances.
• Federline, earned more than a half million dollars in 2006, mainly from entertainment and endorsement deals – but minus business expenses, he only grossed $7,436 that year.
• Spears earns approximately $737,000 per month.
• Federline receives $15,000 a month in child support payments from his ex. (The amount may change, depending on how much more custodial time he ends up getting.) He is entitled to child support payments until Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, become adults, since Spears is the higher earner.
• The documents also reveal that Federline earned $3,300 in royalties in 2006 for his debut song “Popozao.?

Commissioner Scott Gordon has given Spears two visits per week, from 12 noon to 7 PM and one overnight visit. The visits will be monitored.
Spears and K-Fed are ordered to figure out holiday schedules with the kids.
Britney must submit evidence that she child-proofed her pool area by Friday.
In his order, the Commissioner wrote that when Britney has the kids, “the environment at the house ranged from chaotic to almost somber with little communication at all.? The Commissioner also recounts what the parenting coach complained of — that “during all three of my visits Ms. Spears rarely engaged with the children in either conversation or play.? (more…)

Yahoo! News reports:
LOS ANGELES - Britney Spears defended her parenting and chastised her critics, lamenting “how cruel our world can be,” in a brief interview on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show Wednesday.
Spears, always photographed but rarely interviewed these days, also spoke about her new album “Blackout” during the seven-minute talk, during which she giggled frequently as her assistant, Alli Sims, and friend, Sam Lufti, laughed and shouted in the background.
When “American Idol” host, who has a morning radio show on KIIS-FM in Los Angeles, asked Spears if she was doing all she could for her children, Spears replied, “Oh God yeah.”
“People say what they want and do what they do and it’s sad how people, how cruel our world can be,” she said. “At the end of the day … you’ve just got to know in your heart that you’re doing the best you can and that’s basically it.” (more…)

We all know that Britney loves to be in the public eye. We all know that Britney loves the paparazzi. We all know that Britney enjoys reading about herself in the tabloids. We all know that Britney loves Starbucks.
But how weird is this? Tuesday, at a local Starbucks, Britney began passing out plastic green straws to all the paparazzo who were crowding around her.
That would make sense if the paps each had beverages, but none of them did. She was just randomly passing out straws. Is this weird to anyone other that myself? (more…)

Oh, snap! Maxim magazine recently named Britney in the top five UNSEXIEST women alive, and I have to say: if I look like Britney does after giving birth to two kids, I’ll think I’m one DAMN SEXY MAMA. That said, here’s Maxim’s list:
5. Britney Spears
Where You´ve Seen Her Unsexy: Filling chicken-grease-stained sweatpants on the cover of every trashy tabloid and gossip blog on the Internet
Why She´s Unsexy: Less than five years ago, Britney had a python wrapped around her well-toned torso onstage at the VMAs. Since then, she´s lost the ability to perform, but gained two kids, two useless ex-husbands, and about 23 pounds of Funyun pudge.
4. Madonna
Where You´ve Seen Her Unsexy: On tour, at the Wailing Wall, in the pharmacy´s menopause aisle
Why She´s Unsexy: After building a personal fortune on Top 40 pornography, Madonna traded pioneering sexuality for, like other old Jewish women, self-righteous bellyaching and rapid postnuptial deterioration. Combine a Paris Hilton-like pet accessorizing fetish only for dirt-poor foreign babies with a mug that looks Euro-sealed to her skull, and you´ve got Willem Dafoe with hot flashes. (more…)

Yesterday was a whirlwind for Britney, and I’m going to attempt to sum it all up here, nice and pretty:
- As she headed into court, Britney said, “I’m doing good.” For court, Britney was dressed in blue jeans, a long black sweater and aviator sunglasses. She sipped from a Coca-Cola can as she approached the courtroom. An attorney took it from her and placed it on a bench as she entered.
- As Britney was sworn in, she allegedly played nervously with her jeans pocket. I’m not sure if this was rehearsed or not, but I think her nervousness, coupled with her reported “soft and respectful” voice, played to her advantage. It’s becoming obvious that Britney understands the seriousness of these court hearings and this custody battle.

Y’all. I have some big news. Big news about Britney. And her career. And her music. Can you guess what it is?
Yes, it has something to do with her long awaited upcoming album, Blackout.
(What? You didn’t know it had been titled? Because it has been. According to Britney’s label, Jive Records, the title of the album “refers to blocking out negativity and embracing life fully” — and here I was, thinking it had to do with a drug overdose. Because if the former was the case, wouldn’t it be called “Block out”? Am I being too logical here?) (more…)

I was just looking back through some old posts that I wrote about Britney, and did I call it or DID I CALL IT?
Back when Britney and Paris were friends, in those first days of crotch-exposing yore, Paris taught Britney how to pole dance. She strapped a blue tutu on Britney, and donned a matching one herself, and they went at it. Nevermind that Paris has a stripper pole installed in her home – that’s neither here nor there – because way back then I predicted that Britney would use her new stripper moves in her next video.

The stripper-esque video for Britney’s newest song, Gimme More, has been released - and it’s heating up the charts! I found it on YouTube if you want to watch it, but word to the wise: the sound quality is almost painful to listen to. (more…)

Britney’s tagline of her latest song, Gimme More, is starting to make more and more sense to me. At first I thought that Britney was just introducing herself at the beginning of the song. But she wasn’t: she was prophesizing about herself. She wasn’t just saying, “I’m here to rock this song.” Rather, she was proclaiming, “I’m here to rock this industry.”
And rock she has. (more…)
