Molly — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 07:05:00 -0800

Britney Spears isn't the only one having a good week — the pop star spread the love to her boys yesterday with a trip to FAO Schwarz in NYC. Sean Preston and Jayden James are cuter and more stylish than ever these days getting to spend more time with mom and the rest of the Spears family after Brit's fun birthday party on Tuesday. Yesterday, Kevin's People cover came out telling his side of the story, but in the end it seems like Britney and Kevin are keeping it civil these days for the sake of their sons. Brit's big performances have gone off without a hitch and tickets to her tour are selling well. To top it off, you're loving the "Circus" video — it may not be quite New Years yet, but it already seems like a new day for Britney Spears.

Get the Bod: Britney Spears

PopSugar — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 09:50:27 -0800

Get the Bod: Britney Spears This week belongs to Britney Spears. Britney worked hard getting back into world-tour shape, and she admitted to Glamour magazine that she thinks going to the gym "isn’t fun . . . so to do it every day would be horrible. Three days a week is cool, even two. It makes me feel good and feel like I’ve done something. It's important to take care of your body."

K-Fed Reveals He Was Blindsided by Britney's Divorce

PopSugar — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 07:36:46 -0800

We've been hearing a lot of Britney's side of the story recently — between her documentary and numerous magazine covers, we have new insight into her life, including her split from Kevin Federline. Now, Kevin decided to open up a little about what it's all been like for him, from falling in love to watching Britney break down last January to her big comeback year. Here are some highlights from his interview:

On his divorce: "It's hard enough to be in a marriage, and then have a kid, then kids, it changes everything. For me, I'd become more concerned with my children. Not that I ignored Britney, but my kids are always most important . . . I mean, we were having complications. I didn't give her an ultimatum, but I was trying to work stuff out with her, and she didn't even talk to me or anything and went behind my back and filed [for divorce]. [I was] completely blindsided."
On custody of his kids: "My first question to [my lawyer] was, "Am I ever going to be able to see my children?" I told him that I would spend every last dime that I had to make sure that my children are okay. That's all that mattered. I didn't know how much power Britney had. That really scared me."
On Britney's hospitalization: "That whole night is a blur. You want to talk about one of my lowest points of depression, that was probably one of them. I was very, very worried for her 'cause I care about her. That's the mother of my children. Just because I'm not in love with her doesn't mean that I don't love her. I'm definitely rooting for her. There's nothing more that I want than for her to be in the best health and doing what she loves to do."
On her improvement: "Oh, man, it's totally turning around. It works out that [the kids] get to see her. There's structure over there, there's structure at my house. We're trying to keep the same type of schedule. It doesn't have to be completely perfect, but the foundation is there."

Despite the bad reputation Kevin has, he seems genuinely supportive of what she's going through and like he's working hard to be the stable father Britney wants for their kids. As long as he's not trying to revive his rap career, it sounds like Kevin could have earned that Father of the Year trophy.

Ba-Ba-Ba Britney's Birthday Celebration Lights Up NYC

PopSugar — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 06:00:00 -0800

Britney Spears let it almost all hang out last night as she entered Tenjune to celebrate her 27th birthday after an eventful morning. The singer started her day singing on GMA and then had time with her family before getting dolled up to party with friends including Lance Bass. Britney also taped her part of the NBC tree lighting ceremony in Rockefeller Center last night but she covered up to keep warm from the chilly temperatures. She may have recently talked about being sad and trapped but it looks like her smile is back and hopefully high album sales will follow.

Get the Bod: Britney Spears

FitSugar — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 03:30:00 -0800

This week belongs to Britney Spears: between her Circus album dropping (can we say new workout songs?) and her standing-ovation-worthy performances, we seem to be witnessing the pop star's long-awaited comeback. Britney worked hard getting back into world-tour shape, and she admitted to Glamour magazine that she thinks going to the gym "isn’t fun . . . so to do it every day would be horrible. Three days a week is cool, even two. It makes me feel good and feel like I’ve done something. It's important to take care of your body."

Britney acknowledged dueling feelings toward her post-baby body and said, "Recently I started to appreciate my body a bit more from before I had kids. But it completely changed." Her rigorous dance practices and workouts with her trainer, Kacy Duke, are responsible for the pop star's toned physique. Duke was kind enough to share her professional advice for getting Britney's hot bod. To see some of her tips,

Britney's Brilliant Birthday!

PopSugarUK — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 03:00:00 -0800

As those of you who took my quiz know, it was Britney Spears' 27th birthday yesterday, and she spent it performing on US TV, before partying it up in the evening. She performed on Good Morning America in her circus-themed get up, putting on a very similar show to the one she did on The X Factor, but with added fire and a different outfit. And yes, she was definitely still miming. Still in New York City, Britney went to club Tenjune to celebrate her birthday that evening, wearing a very low cut dress. Judging by her smiles in the party polaroids I think it's safe to say it was another very good day in the circus that is Britney's life!

What to Download: New Music on iTunes

BuzzSugar — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 15:32:32 -0800

Tuesdays are big in entertainmentville: Not only do all the new DVD releases hit Netflix, but new music also pours into stores, including iTunes. So I take a spin through each week's iTunes music releases and pick out some albums and tracks worthy of a download. Here are today's selections:

Comeback kid: Britney Spears's new album, Circus, is being described as "adequate" by most reviewers, and from what I've listened to so far, I'd agree. I've had "Womanizer," a song I really enjoy, on my jogging mix for a while now (and all I see is Chuck Bass). I'm not too sure what else from this odd collection of songs I will get into next, but Britney's tunes have a way of creeping up on me over time as I warm to their catchiness. One song, "Unusual You," is very pretty even though it hardly sounds like her, and "Kill the Lights" is cool. Also: What is going on with her accent on "Mmm Papi"?

The best of Chess: I caught an early screening of Cadillac Records last night (I'll share my thoughts on the movie later this week) and boy, am I in the mood for some blues from this era. Lucky for me, the original songs featured in the film have been neatly rounded up for an album available for download today. Classics like "(I'm Your) Hoochie Coochie Man" and "Forty Days and Forty Nights" by the legendary Muddy Waters sound great even on MP3. Oh man, and Etta James pouring her heart out on tracks like "Trust In Me" and "All I Could Do Is Cry" sounds amazing here too. The entire album is awesome — I downloaded it all.

One more still to come, so
