Description

What do Barack Obama and Britney Spears have in common? They both have plans to deliver their own message in separate primetime specials.

To help promote her sixth album (and to show the world that she’s finally back on track), will open up her life for an upcoming MTV documentary. The feature - titled Britney: For the Record - will give fans behind-the-scenes access into the pop star’s life. Shot over a three-month period, the 90-minute piece includes video of Spears in the recording studio and preparing for the VMAs.

In the doc (which can be previewed after the jump), the revamped 26-year-old will also candidly address the craziness from the past couple of years. Britney hopes this special will allow her to tell her side of the stories.

In an interview with Newsweek, Spears sounds off about the difference in the way the media covered two somewhat similar stories: and Bristol Palin, 17, pregnant and unwed.

Is It Britney?

Britney SpearsA Web site created on September 15, 2008 through Go Daddy calling itself has posted an audio Internet video that’s suddenly becoming the most talked-about file on the Web. Considering the subject matter, this is hardly surprising - but if you’re looking for the formula for online success, pay attention.

A single picture of Brit, a countdown showing the time remaining on the release of her album and a single audio embed is all it takes to make a site successful. If, of course, the site is offering up audio of what is purportedly a leaked track off of a truly unreleased album. The track, “Candy From Strangers” certainly sounds like it could be the work of

VMA Fashion: Who Hit a Sour Note?

MTV Award

Award season is long, fraught with gossip, and seemingly unending. Someone always walks away with a statue - some performers and artists walk away with several. But by the time the same awards are given out the next year, no one really cares who won what the year before.

What we do remember is what they were wearing when they were doing it. People may not remember which Grammy Jennifer Lopez won the year she wore the green Versace gown, but they remember the gown. This year’s may be remembered for several years - the pictures not of moon men statues, but of the clothes everyone wore.

Whose couture sang the sweetest…and whose fashion was completely discordant?

Britney Spears

This time last year, I was in a local bookstore pouring through the latest issue of OK! Magazine. I just had to read the behind-the-scenes scoop about Britney Spears’ photo shoot. How many times did she go to the bathroom? Did she really let her dog poop on the designer wardrobe?

And while those details are still fresh on every editor’s mind, OK! - realizing a cash cow is a cash cow - has decided to give the singer a second chance.

In this week’s issue, the much calmer 26-year-old sits down for her first interview in quite some time. Unfortunately, she pop star keeps the topic primarily focused on the positive things in her life (work, family) and avoids most of the ugliness from the past year.

Lynne Spears book

Lynne Spears, mother to Britney and Jamie, is going to make sure she’s every bit as interesting as reality star and parent Dina Lohan. The famous mom has been working for many months on a promised parenting book, which was already (“postponed the book indefinitely” was the way the publishers put it) when the news first broke that Jamie Lynn (16) was pregnant.

The book will indeed be released September 16, but it’s now much less a parenting manual and more a juicy account of what it’s like to raise two stars. The tome’s official title is Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World

Lindsay Lohan Barks Back at LAPD’s Gay Remark

Lindsay Lohan fires back at LAPDAs celebrities like Eric Roberts, John Mayer, and Milo Ventimiglia pushed for a crack down on paparazzi laws earlier this week, LAPD Chief William Bratton shared his true feelings about the paparazzi to reporters:

“If you notice, since Britney started wearing clothes and behaving; Paris is out of town not bothering anybody anymore, thank God, and evidently, Lindsay Lohan has gone gay, we don’t seem to have much of an issue.”

Despite whether it’s true or not, Lindsay wasn’t too happy with the police chief’s remark, stating that “Police chiefs shouldn’t get involved in everyone else’s business when it comes to their personal life. It’s inappropriate.”

Surprisingly, I’d have to agree with her for once. At the same time, one can argue that she is one of the major contributing factors (along with Britney and Paris) in the rise of crazed paparazzi, yet Bratton, in my opinion, really had no right to say what he did as a police official.
