Britney Spears - Mother of the Year

[Kiwon]

The Dixie Chicks win 5 Grammys including two in the “Country” category more than two years after declaring that they don't want to be associated with Country music fans.

Al Gore is nominated for a Nobel Prize and his film for an Oscar. Say what?

I think I'll continue this parallel universe and nominate Britney Spears for “Mother of the Year.” She's the coolest 25 year-old mother of two that has ever lived. Why share once-in-a-lifetime precious moments at home with your 1 year-old and five-month old kids when you can don a bikini and dance in a cage at a nightclub? Grandma must be proud.

She's redefining motherhood for a new millennium. Always on the cutting edge, she's a walking parenting manual for the legions of pre-teens that idolized her and dutifully adopted the Britney-look.

Critics say that she is self-absorbed, egotistical, and immature. I say that the critics are missing her greatness. She is a prototype. A pioneer. Children need loving parents? How passé. Motherhood is about her, her feelings, her freedom, her happiness. If she's happy then the kids will be happy. Besides, kids have the Internet. What more do they need?

When her five-month old grows up, he'll be the envy at school as his classmates will have a photo of his mother's crotch as a background on their notebook computers. She is so cool! Why didn't anyone think of doing that before?

She deserves to win “Mother of the Year” because she breaks all the rules and scatters the pieces no matter the consequences. She’s a risk-taker, the kind of avant-garde mother the world needs today. She frees us from our oppressive traditional view of what a good mother is and brings us to a new place of understanding; Becoming a parent and bringing life into this world shouldn’t change the focus – It’s all about me. Thank you, Britney, for freeing us from the notion of parental responsibility.

It is, therefore, with extreme sarcasm and disdain, that I hereby nominate Britney Spears, humanitarian, for “Mother of the Year.”

maybe she's realised what the rest of us already knew

she has no talent what-so-ever. all she had was looks

and now that she's decided to look like a scary trailer park hooker she's lost that too

[Kiwon]

I'm starting to feel sorry for her. This train wreck's picking up speed.

She's like a young, female Michael Jackson (or is Michael Jackson a female?) in that apparently she is surrounded by "yes" people that validate every nutty impulse she has.

Like those that yell for the suicidal to jump, there is a segment that wants to see her flame out all the way to the ground. But those who really care about her should do a Jack Bauer, Taser her (for drama), kidnap the girl and keep her under wraps until she realizes that she is not the center of the universe and that those two kids she brought into the world are more important to her than anything else.

Right now, she IS acting like trailor trash (I have lived in a small, but nice mobile home btw) and showing the same concern for her kids as the woman who gets pregnant and has kids just to increase the government checks.

[red]

britney only looks good to me after a whole team has worked on her for hours

in that pcture you gave, and in some videos she looks pretty good

but i have never seen a "real" picture of her, just being her, where she looks good

[the_idle_threat]

It's all a matter of taste .... and personally I'd like to taste both of 'em.

At the same time.

Although now that ol' Brit has gone completely over the deep end, I'm no longer interested in her. It's the bat-shit crazy ones that'll have you wake up one day in blinding pain and you look down and they just cut off your yarbles in your sleep. Same reason I've never cared for Angelina Jolie.

[red]

i think jolie is worth taking that chance on, she's a 12

britney, since she turned 18, has only been around a 6 or 7 in my book (in everyday life looks). way too low to take that kind of risk. you have to be at least a 9 to chance it

[red]

who would have thought a few months ago that k-fed would turn out to be the better parent?

[GBRulz]

K-Fed is just as much of a partier as she is. The only difference is that he doesn't have the media following him 24/7. In fact, during the marriage, it was portrayed as him always being out partying and she was home with their son. The guy left his preggo gf at the time to be with Britney. Not exactly what I call a better parent. But, she is def not a Mother of the Year, that's for sure. I just hope she can get it together and can start putting her priorities straight for her kids sake.

[K-town]

From The Superficial:

"US Magazine has an interview with Britney Spears' (former?) nanny and the source says that when Britney is alone with her kids, "she gets overwhelmed. She gets so frustrated when they cry, asking, 'How do I make it stop?' But she loves her kids." And if you've ever wanted to be Britney's nanny here are some of the job requirements.

Personal Over Professional
"Britney didn't ask me one thing about my child-care experience. She only wanted to know about my personal life."

Friend Wanted
"The agency that called me emphasized that Britney was looking for a nanny who was young and hip because they wanted her to interact with people her own age. Basically, Britney wanted a friend."

Comfort With Nudity A Plus
"Britney asked me and one of her nannies to come to her room to watch her try on outfits for a party one night - then she stripped down naked in front of us!"

Must Be Hands-On
"One nanny told me that Britney will hold her kids for 10 minutes and then say, 'I'm done now. You can take them.'"

Don't Be Too Good
"She doesn't like when Sean prefers the nanny, so she fires them and looks for a new one."

Man, that's good parenting. There's no doubt her kids' first words are gonna be "ma ma." Only it'll be directed towards a fire hydrant. Or a toaster. Or any other object or person that isn't actually their mother."

Considering the parenting skills of K-Fed and Britney, I think the kids would be better off being raised by wolves.

With all the crazy behaviors of late she has displayed: partying late, going without panties, shaving her head, running in and out of rehab twice, Britney badly needs intervention by caring responsible adults.

She is a pathetic example of a child star who grew up without adequate adult guidance.

It looks like rehab stint #3 started today :roll:

Wonder what the Vegas odds are of her staying this time??

She's just hiding until her hair grows out...

Chimps Observed Making Their Own Weapons

By Rick Weiss
Washington Post Staff Writer
Thursday, February 22, 2007; 2:48 PM

Chimpanzees living in the West African savannah have been observed fashioning deadly spears from sticks and using the hand-crafted tools to hunt small mammals -- the first routine production of deadly weapons ever observed in animals other than humans.

The multi-step spear-making practice, documented by researchers in Senegal who spent years gaining the chimpanzees' trust, adds credence to the idea that human forebears fashioned similar tools millions of years ago.

The landmark observation also supports the long-debated proposition that females -- the main makers and users of spears among the Senegalese chimps -- tend to be the innovators and creative problem solvers in primate culture.

Using their hands and teeth, the chimpanzees were repeatedly seen tearing the side branches off long straight sticks, peeling back the bark and sharpening one end, the researchers report in today's on-line issue of the journal Current Biology. Then, grasping the weapon in a "power grip," they jabbed into tree-branch hollows where bush babies -- small monkey-like mammals -- sleep during the day.

After stabbing their prey repeatedly, they removed the injured or dead animal and ate it.

"It was really alarming how forceful it was," said lead researcher Jill D. Pruetz of Iowa State University in Ames, adding that it reminded her of the murderous shower scene in the Alfred Hitchcock movie "Psycho." "It was kind of scary."

The new observations are "stunning," said Craig Stanford, a primatologist and professor of anthropology at the University of Southern California. "Really fashioning a weapon to get food -- I'd say that's a first for any non-human animal."

Scientists have documented tool use among chimpanzees for several decades, but the tools have been simple and used to extract food rather than to kill it.

Some chimpanzees slide thin sticks or leaf blades into termite mounds, for example, to fish for the tasty, crawling morsels. Others crumple leaves and use them like sponges to sop drinking water from tree hollows.

But while a few chimpanzees have been observed throwing rocks -- perhaps with the goal of knocking prey unconscious, but perhaps simply as expressions of excitement -- and a few others have been known to swing simple clubs, only people have been known to craft tools expressly to hunt prey.

Pruetz and coworker Paco Bertolani of the University of Cambridge made the observations near Kedougou in southeastern Senegal. Unlike other chimpanzee sites currently under study, which are forested, this site is mostly open savannah. That environment is very much like the one in which early humans evolved and is different enough from other sites to expect differences in chimpanzee behaviors.

Pruetz recalled the first time she saw a member of the 35-member troop trimming leaves and side-branches off a branch it had broken off a tree.

"I just knew right away that she was making a tool," Pruetz said, adding that she suspected -- with some horror -- what it was for, as well. But in that instance she was not able to follow the chimpanzee to see what she did with it.

Eventually the research duo documented 22 instances of spear-making and use, two-thirds of them involving females.

In a typical sequence, the animal first discovered a deep hollow suitable for bush babies, which are nocturnal and weigh about half a pound. Then the chimp would break off a nearby branch -- on average about two feet long, but up to twice that length -- trim it, sharpen it with its teeth, and poke it repeatedly into the hollow at a rate of about one or two jabs per second.

After every few jabs, the chimpanzee would sniff or lick the tip, as though testing to see if it had "caught" anything.

In only one of 22 observations did a chimp get a bush baby. But that is reasonably efficient, Pruetz said, compared to standard chimpanzee hunting practice, which involves chasing a monkey or other prey, grabbing it by the tail and then slamming its head against the ground.

In the successful bush baby case, the chimpanzee eventually jumped on the larger branch until it broke, exposing the limp bushbaby, which the chimp then extracted. Whether the animal was dead or alive at that point was unclear, but it did not move or make any sound.

Chimpanzee behavior is widely believed to offer a window on early human behavior, and many researchers have hoped that the animals -- which are humans' closest genetic cousins -- might reveal something about the earliest use of wooden tools.

Many suspect that wooden tools far predate the use of stone tools -- remnants of which have been found going back two-and-a-half million years. But because wood does not preserve well, the most ancient wooden spears ever found are only about 400,000 years old, leaving open the question of when they first came into use.

The discovery that some chimps today make wooden weapons supports the idea that early humans did too -- perhaps as much as 5 million years ago -- Stanford said.

Adrienne Zihlman, an anthropologist at the University of California at Santa Cruz, said the work supports other evidence that female chimps are more likely to use tools than males, are more proficient tool users, and are crucial to passing that cultural knowledge to others.

"Females are the teachers," Zihlman said, noting that juvenile chimps in Senegal were repeatedly seen watching their mothers make and hunt with spears.

"They are efficient and innovative, they are problem solvers, they are curious," Zihlman said of females. And that makes sense, she said.

"They are pregnant or lactating or carrying a kid for most of their life," she said. "And they're supposed to be running around in the trees chasing prey?"

Frans B. M. de Waal, a primatologist at Emory University, said aggressive tool use is but the latest "uniquely human" behavior to be found to be less than unique.

"Such claims are getting old," he said. "With the present pace of discovery, they last a few decades at most."

Considering that she has been in the public eye as Britney Spears almost 10 years, i'd say she is doing quite well. We won't even consider her work with the MM club or the commercials and off broadway work she did prior to joining the MM club.

Regardless of your opinion, shaving her head was clever. Beats a toxicology report, and keeps her in the public eye. She could have easily have shaved it at home.

To quote David St. Hubbins, "It's such a fine line between stupid, and clever."

So how does swinging that umbrella at the Paparazi fit into her ingenious little plot to win custody?

It has something to do with on-again-off-again rehab stunts. We just don't know how to put the pieces together yet. :?:

[Scott Campbell]

So all that's left for her to do now is to keep her 3 trips to rehab this week out of the media. Then the judge will never know about the drug problem.

Very clever.

Very clever.

Rehab for, lets say alcohol is one thing...who knows what other substances she has tried or is addicted to. All a judge will know is she went to rehab, the rest is privileged info. Most judges or Americans are accustomed to alcohol problems and while i wouldn't say sympathetic, they are at least not shocked by it. If it is heroin or something like that, it is much more severe in the court of public opinion.

Even you, mr. campbell can't deny that.

As for swinging an umbrella..c'mon..no lawyer is going to bring that up as relevant in determing her "fitness" to be a mom. This case won't ever go to court, this is merely jockeying for more money.

If anything, most people are against the paparrazi and would be inclined to understand if not empathize with her. The paparrazi has endured much worse from the stars...baldwin, penn, etc.

[Scott Campbell]

The only point I'm playfully trying to make is that all the recent kooky behavior isn't the traditional recipe for winning a custody suit.

[mraynrand]

To quote David St. Hubbins, "It's such a fine line between stupid, and clever."

I prefer: "Here lies David St. Hubbins, and why not?"

Or more appropriate perhaps to Britt, would be Nigel Tufnel saying "You can't dust for vomit."

I though the umbrella thing was her attempt to audition for "Singing in the Rain"

And who can argue with the staying power of Madonna? I thought she would never top her rendition of "The Gambler" in "Vision Quest," but it pales in comparison, doesn't it, to her performance in "Swept Away"

[Tyrone Bigguns]

The only point I'm playfully trying to make is that all the recent kooky behavior isn't the traditional recipe for winning a custody suit.

Kooky...as per hollywood? A town that has no problems embracing downey, lohan, etc. Britney hasn't done anything out of the ordinary in hollywood.

What is kooky? Shaving your head to prevent a toxicology report isn't kooky. That is just smart.

My point is that she won't have a custody battle. And, she took away a potential threat. Most likely she overreacted to some implied threat or innuendo.

[MadtownPacker]

Very wise Tyrone, sounds like some stuff the dude on the show Kung Fu would hear from his master.

All that dumb skank has to do is show KDeadbeat the money and he will go away. He dont want no kid, he wants to live it up.

Besides, if it was a woman she would be get a big ass chunk of $$$, why shouldnt a man get the same?

[red]

did she really solve anything by shaving her head? the hair is still out there, in fact i think its still for sale on e-bay

if the judge really wanted too, couldn't he seize the hair, run a dna test on it to make sure its hers, then run a drug test on it.

if she was really smart she would have kept the hair after shaving it off, and burning it somewhere

Portman is way hotter! Brittney has gone from tease to total skank. Portman just keeps getting hotter! One big thing to point out in these pics is that the Brittney pic is total airbrush to remove the skank hillbilly. Portman has no hair and is in a casual setting with no special lighting and probably not much makeup. Still Hot IMO !!! 8)

i'd sleep with her in a second.
