THIS IS GOING TO END WELL "Mom-to-be Jamie Lynn Spears is sporting some sparkling new jewelry — an engagement ring from fiancé Casey Aldridge. Spears, 16, has been flashing the rock to friends and family around Louisiana and Mississippi, a source close to the family tells People."
This is the last thing we expected to happen: Jamie Lynn Spears is already tired of baby daddy Casey Aldridge. Shocking, right? We predicted these two would be together forever.
It seems that Jamie Lynn 'has not wanted to be around Casey,' our source says, and the two look to be "on the outs right now, but not officially over yet." But since Jamie Lynn's mom, Lynne Spears, is trying to create a good public impression (well, as good as one can create for a pregnant 16-year-old), everyone is acting like everything is fine.
Lynne needs to give up on the role model idea. Is there anybody left who is stupid enough to look at the Spears family as an example of fine living?

THAT POOR LITTLE BOY "If a recent trip to swank baby goods store Petit Tresor in West Hollywood is any indication, it looks like Jamie Lynn Spears is having a boy. According to a source close to the store, Jamie Lynn and her sister Britney together stopped by the baby boutique on Feb. 25. The jaunt is said to have lasted less than 20 minutes and resulted in the purchase of several items that were light blue in color."
The day isn't complete without a Spears family update, so here's the latest: Britney was allowed to see her kids — twice — and all parties survived. Oh, and Jamie Lynn is done with high school. But back to Brit:
'It went very well,' a source close to the pop star tells OK! about this second visit. 'The boys are really happy to see their mom.'
Even those who you'd expect to be most skeptical about the visits, like Mark Vincent Kaplan, lawyer for Brit's ex-husband Kevin Federline, seemed upbeat on Monday. 'These visitations with the boys will help to normalize the family environment,' Kaplan told OK!. 'Kevin has always been rooting for Britney to regain visitation … and if these visits go well, they will ramp up over time.'
Britney was also spotted attending church Sunday morning with dad Jamie Spears. Hallelujah!
In news that nobody cares about, little sister Jamie Lynn passed her GED exam. Her family would have thrown her some sort of congratulatory party, but they were all busy making sure Britney didn't eat her children.

Britney Spears is locked away for the next two weeks, but that doesn't mean the Spears family plans on staying out of the media spotlight. Today, sister Jamie Lynn is taking the helm with plans to run away from her Louisiana home. Because that's the sign of a good mother-to-be.
'Jamie Lynn is moving to Los Angeles to live with her dad,' an insider told the [National] Enquirer. 'She wants to be settled in before the baby is born in March or early April — and she wants to be closer to film projects she’d like to start after giving birth.'
But Jamie Lynn’s plans to become a working mom aren’t the only reason Britney’s little sis decided to go west. Lynne’s decided that the teenager’s baby daddy, Casey Aldridge, is off limits.
Lynne also worries that once her little girl’s in Los Angeles, she’ll fall under another negative influence — Lynne’s older daughter Britney! 'Jamie Lynn knows Britney smoked and drank during her pregnancy — and because Britney’s boys turned out fine, Jamie Lynn thinks her baby will be fine too,' the source confided.
Yes, Jamie Lynn. Britney's boys are fine. They definitely won't be in therapy for years after all the emotional trama they've been through during their time in the Spears family.

During Adnad Ghalib's The Insider interview that he was totally not compensated for, he is asked about Britney Spears' thoughts on Jamie-Lynn's pregnancy. His answer? "I don't think she accepts that she is [pregnant]."
To be fair, she also doesn't believe that Heath Ledger's dead.

If they are wise, the severity of the mistakes of the young will be mitigated by their knowledge of the messes that came before them.
A newly fertilized Jamie Lynn Spears can count herself as wise, as she was recently photographed leaving a Louisiana adult education center after attending a parenting class, GED study guide in hand. Her mother, Lynne Spears, was by her side when she left the building, almost definitely chanting, "Britney once, shame on Britney; Britney twice, shame on me."

The father of Jamie Lynn Spears baby is NOT boyfriend Casey Aldridge, according to shocking reports from the U.S.
…Star magazine insists that the teenager may not be the dad - and that Spears’ friends and family think it is an older man who would face statutory rape charges.
Friends have said that Jamie Lynn was no longer even seeing Casey - and family members told Star that they believe the real father is a much older executive at her children’s TV show ‘Zoey 101′.
…
“The man many suspect is the father, however, would face charges and probably prison time if he were to come forward and admit he had sex with her…”
This is almost certainly not true. Then again, the only reason we say that is because we hope it is not. Considering how many people are damaged in terrible ways, it could be completely accurate. In which case: Gah!

Lynne Spears' shelved book deal is back on, and publishers say it is not, as was previously reported, a "parenting" book (and thank goodness for that, because her children are fucked).
"From the onset, the media have inaccurately reported that Lynne Spears' book is a parenting book. I'm sure this helps fuel tabloid readership, but it is simply not true," said MICHAEL S. HYATT, president and CEO of Thomas Nelson. "Lynne's memoir will provide a window into the real-life world of fame and worldly success, including the toll it extracts from some who aspire to it. It will provide a much-needed corrective to a world obsessed with the wrong priorities."
Hyatt continued, "We believe in redemption. Therefore, we are standing with Lynne and her family during this difficult time. Though the book has been delayed, we believe God is at work."
"God is at work" as Britney Spears daily falls deeper into chaos and Jamie Lynn Spears incubates a bastard child? Time to get a new God, maybe, Spears family.
After years of receiving little attention compared to that which her sister gets, the invisible Ashlee Simpson is now being ignored in favor of other people's sisters.
Wednesday, Dec. 19 was supposed to be a big day for Ashlee Simpson. After spending the last year working on a new album, “Outta My Head,” Ashlee’s debut video was set to release to big fanfare.
Unfortunately, the spotlight just wasn’t meant to be for Simpson, thanks to the news that Jamie Lynn Spears is with child.
"Ashlee can’t believe this happened. She’s so disappointed," said a source.
What a zeitgeist! A record release and a celebrity teen pregnancy shouldn't be competing for headlines, but they so totally are. Is there something wrong with music? Music news? News? Everything?
