Brittney Spears and Anna Nicole

I have to admit that I see no real connection between Anna Nicole Smith and Brittany Spears. The fact that the Entertainment News media has connected them on E! News this week and in the current US Weekly made me think that they had gotten lazy.

It's like instead of covering the stories separately and coming up with a segueway they just combined the two. Case in point, they keep mentioning how Anna made a video request to be Brittney's friend last Spring. Personally, I thought that showed how low Brittney had sunk in public opinion. Now the gossip mags are saying it shows where Brittney will end up if she doesn't get her act together. That would be dead in a holding room in Florida? While several different people fight over your body, your money and your baby? And no one can guess where your baby came from because everyone knows you slept with all the people around you?

Really? I'm not convinced, it seems like lazy reporting when both celebrities stories are enough on their own to carry a show or article I have no idea why this point is being focused on...at least not enough to merit all the attention it's gotten this week. And now Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband claims he could be the father's baby? (Go look at Fox News archives from last week). I'm pretty sure Aaron Tonkin in the book 'King of Cons' states that he is totally gay, or at least bisexual. So..I guess that fits this circus.

Brittney, I don't know why she shaved her hair off, but I actually feel like maybe the media and people like me have gone too far. Really, I hated her as a big celeb before Kevin Federline. But I feel now we might all just be driving her crazy and the feeding frenzy continues..she was always a very desperate girl who seemed to need, not just want affection and attention even from fans. It turned me off personally, but now it seems to be killing her. And if she's an addict sooner or later it's death or sobriety, death or sobriety, death or sobriety.

Today Fox News announced that Brittney's ex Jason Alexander says she took drugs with him? Ectasy, Cocaine, Vicodine, and Valium. Sounds like someone is jealous that all her other exes get sooo much more media than him. I am waiting for another verifiable source to second that information. Also he must be awful desperate to admit he did all those drugs, hmmm.

BTW, I am trying to figure out this whole Howard K. Stern and Larry Birkhead scandal, my male and straight neighbor is convinced HKS wanted Anna dead because she 'slept with everyone but him'. I figured she slept with everyone and that included him? Eh, who knows but I don't buy this whole story that he never cared about her or the baby. Years ago on the Old E! show he seemed to have an obvious affection for her. Who do you think got her that gig, to events, or kept her lucid enough to have any career? He did, he may have given her the painkillers she asked for, but he was the hired help, and I don't know many employees that will argue with their meal ticket when it asks for something-even drugs. Just think, he was crazy enough to work for her....
