JAMIE LYNN SCRUTINY OUTLASTS HER PREGNANCY "Jamie Lynn Spears, who just gave birth to daughter Maddie Briann Aldridge at the ripe old age of 17, is in danger of heading down the same road as her sister, Britney. A Louisiana source tells us, 'She only has Diet Coke in the house. How redneck is that?'" A note to Louisianans who know the contents of Jamie Lynn Spears' fridge and give information to tabloids: You're not allowed to accuse anyone else of being too rednecky.
The endless race for the latest set of exclusive celebrity photos wraps another round, with OK! reportedly snapping up the first pictures of Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves’ son Levi Alves, adding to this week’s long-expected coup of Jamie Lynn Spears’ new daughter Maddie. Of course, this is just a small battle compared to the People v. OK! bidding war for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s new bundle of paydays.
And the price for the pics?
Maddie Briann and mom Jamie Lynn Spears grace the cover of this week's OK! magazine about two weeks too late. With the recent slew of celebrity babies it's hard for the tabloid readers to hold interest in just one infant, even if said infant is a Spears; unfortunately for OK!, this means the mag's exclusive $1 million deal will probably flounder. One thing that's not helping matters: Jamie Lynn's new face and hair on the cover. What the hell did they do to her?
You know what you get when you’re a celebrity and you sign an exclusive deal with a tabloid? Bad karma from the rest of the magazines.
Jamie Lynn Spears, who signed a $1 million exclusive deal with OK! for her pregnancy story and pics, is getting stabbed by Star with a dramatic cover story exclaiming, “Delivery Room Drama!” Since Spears is prohibited from playing ball with the other celeb weeklies, there’s only one thing Star can do: deliver one piece of bad news after another. If only Spears hadn’t signed with OK!, she could’ve scored some protection.
If you direct your attention to the left, you will see two teenage parents-to-be showing their enthusiasm during an interview on today's Good Morning America. The girl is one of those rumored to have made a pact with her high school friends to get pregnant together — because it's the new fun thing to do! — but she insists those reports are false. We tried to listen to her reasoning, but the excitement in her voice just overwhelmed us to the point where we fell asleep. Good luck with the kid. CONTINUED »

A NEW TRAIN WRECK IS BORN "There is a new baby in the Spears clan! Jamie Lynn Spears and her fiancé Casey Aldridge welcomed a baby girl Thursday morning. People confirms exclusively that the baby was named Maddie Briann."
Evidently movies like Juno are ruining our youth, because the new trend is getting preggers at a young age. Case in point: A group of 17 girls at a Massachusetts high school are with child, and they are wayyyy too enthused about it.
All it took was a few simple questions before nearly half the expecting students, none older than 16, confessed to making a pact to get pregnant and raise their babies together. Then the story got worse. 'We found out one of the fathers is a 24-year-old homeless guy,' the principal says, shaking his head.
Naturally, parents are complaining about the new pregnancy trend — including films like Knocked Up and Jamie Lynn Spears' glamorous OK! exclusive in which she revealed she was expecting — but it's never that easy.
A classmate who gave birth her freshman year said many of the girls would approach her and talk about how lucky she was to have a baby: "They're so excited to finally have someone to love them unconditionally. I try to explain it's hard to feel loved when an infant is screaming to be fed at 3 a.m."

HERE SHE COMES "Doctors are preparing Jamie Lynn Spears for a C-section due to complications in her pregnancy. … Jamie Lynn’s family members including the baby’s father, Casey Aldridge, are gathering at Mississippi Southwest Regional Medical Center in McComb, Ms."
JUST A MONTH? "Britney Spears is set to fly to her hometown of Kentwood, Louisiana, on Wednesday, as her pregnant sister Jamie Lynn, 17, prepares to give birth, a source tells Usmagazine.com. The singer, 26, could stay home for at least a month."
Good news, everyone! (And by "everyone," we mean "Dina Lohan.") Lynne Spears will be releasing her memoir this fall after a minor setback that included her 16-year-old daughter getting knocked up and her other daughter having a very public mental breakdown.
The book, which will be called Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World, will not be a parenting book, but instead it's "her story of what it was like being a mom and raising two very famous people." Sources say that, even when it was put on hold, Lynne never stopped writing, because "she wants to express her love for her children and tell their stories through a mother's eyes." Also? She needs a paycheck now that both daughters are out of work.

It seems nobody learned anything from Chaotic, the reality show in which Britney Spears and Kevin Federline were allowed to use a video camera and tape themselves.
Britney is threatening to release her video diaries, which chronicle her problems over the past six months.
The "Toxic" star is reportedly planning to release them online — or on MTV.
As well as rants about her mom, dad, sister Jamie Lynn, and friends, the singer, 26, reveals intimate information about her ex, Justin Timberlake, and her rivalry with Christina Aguilera.
Sources are afraid the tapes will be "explosive" … because people are going to believe every word that comes out of a headcase's mouth? Someone is giving Brit too much credit.
