Britney Spears and Kevin Federline together again?
The “Oops I Did It Again” singer plans to stop divorce proceedings against K-Fed and wants to get back together with him, according to the upcoming issue of the National Enquirer. Federline reportedly isn’t so keen on the idea.
“I’m not divorcing you!” Spears told a “stunned” K-Fed during a recent phone conversation, reports the tab. “I want my family back!”
Rosie O’Donnell is in full support of Britney Spears showing her True Colors.
In a video blog on her Website, O’Donnell waxed enthusiastic about the possibility that the tarnished pop princess might be making a guest appearance alongside Cyndi Lauper later this month.
“Brit, if you’re watching, honey, you and me—we’re gonna share, like, a backstage moment, ’cause I love you, kid!” said O’Donnell, who has been playing the drums for some of Lauper’s performances.
Rumor has it that Spears will join the True Colors tour for the Los Angeles stopover at the Greek Theater on Saturday. Her choreographer told People last week that the singer had been auditioning male backup dancers in anticipation of the performance.
However, as O’Donnell tells it, Lauper would be among those surprised by a surprise Spears appearance.
“Cyndi says it’s not happening and it’s Cyndi’s tour, so she would know,” O’Donnell said.
But the former View cohost isn’t giving up hope just yet.
“If it is happening, I’m thrilled, because I enjoy Britney,” she said.
Tour organizers had no comment on the situation.
Last month, Spears performed several (poorly kept) secret shows at venues in Southern California and Las Vegas marking her first live appearances in almost three years.
The mother-of-two has reportedly been hard at work on a comeback album, though no release date has been revealed.
In the meantime, Spears recently unveiled a new cryptic message on her Website, reading: “Mother to Grandmother, and my my, you’re grand.”
No word on what the pop star meant by the message, or if it was intended for her own mother, Lynne Spears, with whom she has reportedly had strained relations of late.
Whether or not Spears makes an appearance, there will be plenty to take in at Saturday’s True Colors concert.
Aside from Lauper, other acts scheduled to take the stage include Erasure, Debbie Harry, the Dresden Dolls and the MisShapes. Margeret Cho will serve as emcee and O’Donnell is expected to perform a standup act.
A source close to Britney gave some shocking news – Britney’s visit to her attorney’s office yesterday may have been part of Spears’ research into filing a restraining order against her own mother, to keep Grandma away from Jayden and Sean!
Britney and Lynne’s relationship soured when Brit was forced into rehab by her family and management (according to Brit herself) and when it appeared that Lynne was taking Kevin’s side in the custody battle involving her own daughter and her daughter’s estranged husband.
Then reports had the mother and daughter reconciling last month and we did catch Brit’s mom and her daughter’s Bel Air home, but Britney was mum on mom the following day when we asked if she was happy to see her mom again. We haven’t seen the two together since then and now our source is telling us there are some very deep problems between the two. Apparently Britney feels the situation is serious enough to file a restraining order against her own mother to keep her mom away from her two sons, according to our source.
Brit has a new perfume in the works, and she’s hoping to start promoting it soon (maybe in conjunction with the release of her new album). But it will be hard to promote the product if she keeps walking away from commercial shoots.
“There was a shoot last week in L.A. for a new perfume she’s coming out with and something happened,” said an insider. Whatever the incident was, she walked off the lot and refused to finish the shoot.
“She is not listening to anyone and doing exactly what she wants. But sometimes she doesn’t know best,” reported the source. Evidence of that can be seen in some of the other poor decisions she’s made recently.
Regardless, Brit has a new album in the final stages of production, and it’s supposed to be huge. “Four definite hits on the next album. It’s amazing,” the source said.
Britney Spears caused chaos in Santa Monica, California yesterday in what appeared to be a desperate attempt to get a little paparazzi attention. Photographers camped outside celebrity hotspot the Casa Del Mar hotel, hoping for the chance to shoot Britney’s one-time pop rival Mandy Moore – who was conducting press interviews inside, were stunned when the singer slowly drove by.
One bystander says, “It seemed obvious that Britney wanted to get noticed and photographed – why else would you show up at one of California’s paparazzi hang-outs. She drove really slowly and doubled back on herself to make sure that everyone who wanted to get a shot, got a shot.” But Britney’s afternoon out turned ugly when her security guard, who was with her for the drive, had to fight off one snapper who got too close to his charge.
The onlooker says, “Britney had to make a run for it in the end. She and her bodyguard ended up hanging out by the hotel pool – in full view of everyone.”
UBritney.com: J.R. Rotem is featured in the brand new issue of ‘Blender’ magazine, which features The White Stripes on the cover. Inside the magazine, J.R. makes sure to get in his fair share of Britney-bashing, and then back-tracking! Here is how the article reads:
“I fucked Britney wheelbarrow style.” Jonathan “J.R.” Rotem is holding court at his Beluga Heights studio in West Hollywood, California. The music producer is wearing enormous silver Elvis sunglasses and a diamond-encrusted keyboard around his neck; his hair glistens like a bird in an oil spill. To the audience clustered around his couch – his manager Zach Katz, two cameramen filming a reality-show pilot, Denaun Porter of hip-hop group D12 – Rotem offers a series of impromptu non sequiturs: “I have a fear of germs”; “I don’t invest in real estate, I invest in jewelry”; “I’m a Leo, a lion”; “I’ve seen Zoolander 100 times”; and, finally, “I fucked Britney wheelbarrow style. Just kidding.” He waits a beat. “It was tractor style.” You may recall Rotem’s name and/or hair from the gossip blogs. Back in December, five weeks after Spears sent Kevin Federline packing from Malibu to the Valley, sandwiched somewhere in the midst of her cataclysmic mental mudslide – between paparazzi shots of her bald beaver and her nude noggin – grainy footage appeared of the postpartum pop star climbing onto Rotem’s lap, cigarette in hand, leaning in for a kiss. They had been working together on her next record and capped the night with the Cameron Diaz chick flick The Holiday – and some curbside canoodling. Back at Beluga Heights, Rotem’s old friend Porter presses him for salacious details about that night. “How did you do that?” the rapper asks, slapping his thigh in disbelief. “I heard she’s on the wild side. Is that true?” The cameramen exchange excited glances. Whether out of respect for Spears or concern for his career, Rotem clams up. His right foot twitches; his knuckles whiten on the arm of the leather couch. An awkward silence creeps in. “We were working in the studio together,” Rotem replies flatly, trying to bring the conversation to a halt. He ventures something about a sampling machine. But Porter just ignores him: “You are a hound dog!” he shouts. “I remember when he get no pussy. Now he gettin all kind of pussy.”
Later in the article, after mentioning how the shots of him making out with Britney got him bounced from K-Fed’s MySpace Friend’s List, the Britney talk picks up again:
He talks about promiscuity (“I don’t have one-night stands”) and, finally, what really happened with Britney Spears. “Britney and I were in a relationship,” he says quietly. “We were dating for about two weeks but decided for both our careers that it wouldn’t be cool to have a romantic relationship. She was really emotional and distressed at the time.” Rotem says he doesn’t regret what happened, or his overnight notoriety; he knows it’s good for business. But whatever anyone thinks of him, he insists he always tries to do the right thing. “There are definitely times when I’m an arrogant, vain asshole. But the bigger part is sensitive, good-hearted. People who just see me in front of the paparazzi acting like a jackass have no clue who I am.” And with that, Rotem texts Paris [Hilton] to see where she’s gone off to.

Consider pop tart Britney Spears, whose every move from club-hopping to head-shaving, has grabbed gobs of tabloid ink. But rather than earn her adoration, the recent media onslaught has resulted in eye rolls. And worse.
“Extra” can reveal that after not speaking for months, Brit started re-bonding with mom Lynn over lunch in Beverly Hills this weekend.
And now Lynne is speaking out!
Proud that Britney’s got her priorities back in order, Momma Spears told Us Weekly, “I can see Britney’s life picking up, and it’s just going to hold great things for her. Everything is going to be really good.”
Ian Drew, Us Weekly’s editor, shed a little light on what caused their relationship to so famously fizzle out.
“Britney’s the one who decided to pull the plug on the relationship,” he revealed.
Drew said it all went downhill because Brit felt Lynne forced her into rehab back in February.
“Britney feels that her parents turned on her,” Drew explained. “When they sided with Kevin Federline, her ex-husband, and took her children away, making her go to rehab, she felt complete turned on.”
Britney’s mom said that scenes like last night – where Britney showed a little more than she should have to waiting paparazzi – are just all part of growing up.
“It’s sad that the whole world had to watch her make mistakes that all of us have made at one time or another,” Lynne said.
Speaking of mistakes…
“Extra” has learned the truth about reports that Britney is thinking about getting back together with ex-hubby and baby-daddy K-Fed.
Federline’s people tell us that a Britney, who once reportedly told Kevin that he was her “biggest mistake,” is not getting back together with him.
“Not true,” K-Fed’s rep said of the rumors.
UntouchableBritney.com: ‘Timberlake has consistently declined to be drawn on the inspirations behind the song, ‘What Goes Around’, which is assumed to be about his old friend, Britney Spears. But given that he’s brilliantly re-tooled his own career in myriad new different directions, I wonder if given the chance, he would help Britney’s?
“I think this goes for anyone: it all starts with the songs. The truth of it is, she had catchy songs. If she had catchy songs again, I don’t think anybody would be chastising her as much as they are.”‘
Icelandic pop star BJORK sympathises with fellow singer BRITNEY SPEARS’ struggle to juggle the pressures of celebrity with a successful music career. The star recalls how dealing with fame became too much for her during the height of her career in the 1990s when she was living in the U.K., prompting her to attack a journalist who tried to talk to her 10-year-old son. And she can relate to troubled singer Spears, who is hoping to revive her career after a stint in rehab and constant press criticism about her parenting skills and party lifestyle. Bjork says, “I definitely feel sympathy for Britney, but I had a choice. I could move away. She can’t.”
