Britney Spears: Ready For Auntie Duties

Britney Spears: Ready For Auntie Duties

Following a hectic day in which she welcomed a niece into the world, Britney Spears was spotted out at a convenience store near her home in Kentwood, Louisiana on Thursday (June 19).

Earlier in the day, the Gimme More singer visited her sister at the Mississippi Southwest Regional Medical Center in McComb, Mississippi, where Jamie-Lynn gave birth to a baby girl named Maddie Briann.

On the topic of Jamie-Lynn’s pregnancy, relatives and friends have been ready and willing to talk with press on the matter.

“We’re so excited for her,” a family friend enthusiastically told People magazine “She’ll be a great mom. She’ll be awesome.”

Meanwhile, a cousin of babydaddy Casey Aldridge tells: “It seemed like this day would never come,. They’ve been getting ready, but everything was pretty much done by last month. So they just had to wait.”

Offering words of caution, Charlie Spears adds: “It’s easy to have them, but hard to raise them. I hope she’s healthy, and I hope they raise a good baby.”

Lauren Conrad Breaks a Sweat

Lauren Conrad Breaks a Sweat

Since the majority of her “Hills” lifestyle revolves around shopping and social events, Lauren Conrad has to go out of her way to get the exercise she needs to stay in such great shape.

And yesterday the reality-star-turned-designer was spotted looking like she was ready to feel the burn as she made her way into a convenience store.

LC sported a cap-sleeve, screenprinted long torso tee along with a pair of skin-tight shiny blue tights, sneakers, sunglasses, and her hair pulled back in a ponytail.

The “Hills” hottie emerged from the store with a bottle of Vitamin Water, as well as good old fashioned Aquafina water.  After all, we wouldn’t want Miss Conrad getting dehydrated!

Amy Winehouse Visits Jailbird Hubby

Amy Winehouse Visits Jailbird Hubby

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that Amy Winehouse hasn’t been taking the incarceration of her husband Blake Fielder-Civil very well.  The only thing keeping her going is the fact that she gets to visit him frequently.

Earlier today, the “Rehab” singer stopped by the London prison to pay her love a visit.  When she arrived, the prison guards made her wait outside until she was approved by the warden. 

During her wait, she smoked a cigarette, and informed the paparazzi that Blake is doing “fantastic.” She even smiled when one of the shutterbugs paid her a compliment on her appearance.

After the prison visit, Amy stopped by a convenience store and picked up a bottle of wine, sweets and Walkers Sensations potato chips before returning home.

Given her emotional breakdown earlier this week, it is good to hear that Winehouse is feeling positive again.  Friend/producer Mark Ronson reported that she’s really excited about her six Grammy Nominations.

He said, “She’s good.  I called her today because the record was something that we went through together … Hopefully she will get into America so we can celebrate.  Amy doesn’t get excited about anything.  She was never once excited while in the studio. And today she is just like, ‘Yeah, Ronnie, chops, we got Grammy nominations.’ That’s her. But she is happy and psyched.”

Amy Winehouse Melts Down… Again

Amy Winehouse Melts Down… Again

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, our old emotionally-stable friend Amy Winehouse had a mental breakdown, once again.

Apparently she wasn’t playing by the rules when she attempted to visit her incarcerated hubby Blake Fielder-Civil, and she was denied her chance to see him.

According to a witness, “They didn’t let her in because she was too late for visiting hours.  She begged and pleaded with wardens at the prison but they weren’t having any of it. The rules are the rules – if you’re late then you’re not going to get in. Visitors have to arrive before lunch is served. Clearly Amy didn’t drag herself out of bed in time.”

As she left the London prison, the paparazzi heard her mumbling some choice four letter words under her breath, looking bedraggled and forlorn.  She stopped at a convenience store to pick up a couple popsicles, and headed back home.
