New Britney Pictures!

Britney is seen here leaving a dentist's office in the San Fernando Valley. Is she going all the way down there because last time she was at the dentist getting her teeth whitened, it made headline news as "Britney In Hospital!" Hmmm maybe she's getting them whitened for an upcoming award show?! Hope there's no cavities, Brit!

See them all here!

Britney Spears to Get Her Own Sitcom?

The following italicized article is from www.hollywood.tv:

U.S. TV bosses are so thrilled with BRITNEY SPEARS' guest spot on sitcom HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, they want to give the pop star her own show.

The singer's cameo as a secretary in the comedy was a huge success when it aired this week (24Mar08), attracting 10 million viewers - its highest ever ratings.

And network chiefs at CBS are now planning to hand Spears future guest appearances, before creating her own spin-off sitcom.

Sources tell the National Enquirer, "Britney did a great job playing the cute, funny receptionist - and really enjoyed herself.

"Doing a TV show will help Britney keep focused - plus keep her in Los Angeles, where she can see her kids regularly and create a positive work routine."

Adnan Slithers In. Blogs. Slithers Out.

The following italicized article is from www.eonline.com:

Adnan Ghalib slithered into the offices of photo agency Brit fans’ questions. The pap-turned-boy-toy seemed to imply that he and Britney Spears are still an item. No need to read it, though—we’ve deconstructed our favorite moments:

When asked how it feels to be on the other side of the camera for once, Adnan says, “A part of me is ashamed of the profession I chose...”

A part of you? Like your brain? That part?

Explaining his "relationship" with Amanda (the waitress who reportedly came between him and Spears), Adnan explains that he didn't cheat on Brit. Amanda “was dating a friend of mine who I checked in on often. But she had ulterior motives.”

You tell 'em, Adnan! We think it’s appalling when people try to insert themselves into a media circus for their own personal gain. What kind of scum bag would do that? Oh. Right.

Answering criticism about his decision to answer questions on a blog, the always altruistic Adnan says, "If I don’t answer on this blog, then two things happen: (1) The magazines will not be accurate with what I say and (2) I will have to be paid and I don’t want to profit off my relationship.”

This is us staring at the screen in disbelief.

Britney's Toxic Trio

The following italicized article is from www.ok-magazine.com:

As Britney Spears continues to cool her heels under the supervision of her father Jamie Spears, there are a trio of former bad influences — former constant companion Sam Lutfi, boyfriend Adnan Ghalib, and her party-girl cousin Alli Sims — biding their time, waiting for the day when the pop princess is unleashed.

First up is Brit's former shadow Sam, whom OK! can report has gone from riding the singer's coattails to fixing leaky plumbing and broken windows as the superintendent of his run-down condo in Venice Beach, Calif. Britney's dad has attempted to erase Sam from his daughter’s life by seeing to it that the restraining order against him is enforced to its fullest. However, Sam insists exclusively to OK!, “I’m a good person, and all that matters is that Britney’s getting better.”

Sure...

Of the three, Adnan, Brit’s notorious paparrazo beau, is the one who has the most contact with her and is the only one who gets to see her in the flesh. “She can call and text him," a Spears family insider tells OK!. "But Jamie has limited his physical appearances in the house.” In fact, the swarthy photog has reportedly been turned away at the gates of Brit's private community, The Summit, at least twice.

Rounding out the trio is Britney's fame-hungry cousin-about-town Alli, who had been using her family member to push herself into the spotlight. Except, as soon as Brit was committed for the first time this year, Alli was on a plane to New York City to "work on her album."

Immediately following Brit's release into her father's care, the singing superstar was banned from texting Alli. However, Jamie has recently decided to permit brief phone calls between the pair. “Alli agreed not to be in communication with her close friend Sam Lutfi in order to be granted permission to call and text Britney,” the insider tells OK!.

Only time will tell if Britney is able to succesfully avoid the tempting lure of her former party posse, or if this time in relatively quiet lockdown has helped her to see who really has her best interests in mind.

Britney Spears Propels 'How I Met Your Mother' To Series High

The following italicized article is from www.accesshollywood.com:

Britney Spears' return to scripted television had viewers tuning in at record numbers Monday night.

Call it curiosity or possibly fans rooting for a celebrity-underdog, for whatever reason, Britney's appearance on CBS's "How I Met Your Mother" boosted the series to its highest ratings ever in its three-season history with adults 18-49 and adults 25-54, according to preliminary Nielsen ratings.

But what are the critics saying about Britney's performance?

Tom Gliatto of People said Britney managed to jump the acting hurdles she faced, writing, "Her challenge was clear: Demonstrate that, even though she seems in recent months to have been traveling through life on the roaring, ragged edge of a tornado, she could still stop and stand still long enough to perform on camera, be as naturally charming as the role permitted, and let the audience conclude: 'Well, she SEEMS all right. She seems like Britney.'"

He doesn't think the script did enough with the potential triangle between the characters played by Britney, Josh Radnor, and Sarah Chalke.

"[Britney's] best scene came at the very end: Abby, letting herself be seduced by the ridiculously rakish Barney (Neil Patrick Harris), unexpectedly and enthusiastically upped the ante. It was a sort of fantasy validation: This loser secretary, who tried to find herself reading self-help books, was transformed into a fun girl with thoughts only of uncomplicatedly naughty good times," Gliatto writes.

"As she bolted from the office with Harris, it was as if Britney were rushing out to meet her former self," he added.

As for the acting professional's take on Britney's sitcom stint? The pop princess is getting more high marks.

"She did pretty good, there was a sweetness to her, a vulnerability," Charna Halpern, artistic director of Chicago’s Improv Olympic Comedy Club, told Us Magazine. "She looked beautiful and had screen presence, even when she was behind the desk and they made her look kind of homely, she was adorable."

Aliza Shane, senior director of NYC’s Looking Glass Theater agreed, telling Us Britney's role was, “over the top, and she certainly went for it. Clearly, she likes being on camera, no one can argue that!"

Tina Fey Would Love To Have Brit On '30 Rock'

The following italicized article is from www.accesshollywood.com:

Tina Fey Would Welcome A Britney Guest Spot: With the success of her appearance on "How I Met Your Mother," Britney is the talk of the sitcom world. Tina Fey of "30 Rock" told Access Hollywood in a conference call with reporters that even though the hit NBC show tends to write guest spots with the actors already in mind, "We would love to work with Britney," Fey said when asked if Britney were to approach the show. "I’ve worked with her twice on 'Saturday Night Live' and she was very professional and nice." So what do you say Brit? You and Kenneth would make a great dynamic NBC page duo!

Yes, Mother, Britney Can Still Draw a Crowd

The following italicized article is from www.eonline.com:

Britney Spears gawking lives.

Spears' guest appearance on Monday's How I Met Your Mother helped boost the sitcom by 1 million viewers, Nielsen Media Research stats show.

The CBS show averaged a season-high 10.7 million viewers, up from last week's 9.7 million.

It was the most-watched prime-time Spears moment of the Spears family's especially tumultuous last six months. It topped Britney Spears' sleepwalking routine at the MTV Video Music Awards (7.1 million). And it topped the first new Zoey 101 (7.3 million) to air in the wake of teenager Jamie Lynn Spears' announcement that she was pregnant.

How I Met Your Mother was Britney Spears' first gig since the MTV debacle gave way to months of personal, but not terribly private, drama. On it, she plays a sensitive secretary at a dermatologist's office visited by Josh Radnor's Ted. She appears about, rough estimate, 1,000 percent more engaged than she did at the Video Music Awards.

Spears curiosity factor or no, How I Met Your Mother remained an also-ran on Monday.

Updated: Just ’cause You’ve Been Asking

The following italicized article is from www.jfxonline.com:

HEY GUYS, RONNIE HERE. WE’RE DONE FOR THE DAY. IF YOU’VE BEEN FOLLOWING ALONG IN THE COMMENTS, YOU’LL KNOW WHY. BUT DON’T FRET, ADNAN’S AGREED TO COME BACK TOMORROW AND FINISH UP THE REST OF THE QUESTIONS. I DON’T KNOW WHAT TIME WE’LL GET TO POSTING AGAIN SO JUST KEEP CHECKING BACK! CHEERS FROM JFX.

Hi everyone, it’s Adnan. Sorry it’s taken a while to get your questions answered. I want to say thanks to those for the support, you know who you are….

I am anxious to see how this goes. If it goes well, we’ll definitely do this again and I’ll answer those questions that I did not have the time to answer. Who knows? It may become a regular event.

God Bless.

Question 17: Can you give an expl[a]nation with the cross you wear around your neck?

Answer 17: It was a gift from a friend that he picked up for me when he went to Argentina. That in itself is its value to me.

Question 16: How does being under the microscope affect your life professionally and privately? All the negatives and the positives no one can understand on being on the outside looking in and the sudden changes in lifestyles?

Answer 16: The first thing I learned is that the media don’t like ‘happy in Hollywood’ and its sad how the business has changed. A part of me is ashamed of the profession I chose but there are still a few respectful companies/photogs out there.

Question 15: Also….somewhere it mentioned that Adnan owns the company that he used to work (photograph) for…anyone know if this is true?

Answer 15: I wish that were true but I only freelanced for them.

Question 14: How is your family handling all the media attention and negative attention you have received?

Answer 14: Not well at all.

Question 13: What was your relationship with Sam?

Answer 13: None. Never had one.

Question 12: What is the deal with the whole Amanda thing? [What] is the nature of your relationship with her?

Answer 12: She was dating a friend of mine who I checked in on often. But she had ulterior motives.

Question 11: Do you know why X17 (and quite often lately TMZ) posts mostly negative things about you?

Answer 11: X17 has lost a valuable source and I have refused to partake. So the war is on. As for TMZ, well, they are who they are.

Question 10: Can any of the people that have followed her for awhile (paps) able to help her parents prove what Sam was doing to her?

Answer 10: I think they knew but not to the full extent. I feel I did enough.

Question 9: When can we purchase Team Adnan t-shirts?

Answer 9: Gigi, I will send you one if you like.

Question 8: How does it feel to date Britney Spears?

Answer 8: Actually, I view it as any other relationship… other than the media circus of course.

Question 7: Are you only with Britney until she is better? Have you ever cheated on her?

Answer 7: No. Never. Not on Britney or any of my past relationships.

Question 6: What is your main source of income these days?

Answer 6: Check out question 1 below. Why, do you have a job for me?

Question 5: Do you see Sam entering back into Britney’s life?

Answer 5: I’m sure he will try. He is relentless. Keep an eye out for an attempted comeback.

Question 4: How do you view the conservatorship?

Answer 4: Positive. As I would anything that is good.

Question 3: Why are you answering questions on a blog? Rubs everyone the wrong way.

Answer 3: If I don’t answer on this blog, then two things happen. 1) The magazines will not be accurate with what I say and 2) I will have to be paid and I don’t want to profit off my relationship.

Question 2: Are you being paid to wear Christian’s clothes?

Answer 2: No. I knew Christian before my relationship with Britney and have worn his clothes for years.

Question 1: What are you doing for cash these days?

Answer: I was fortunate that I had an extensive archive of pictures and video over the next few years and for now, but not for long, I have a reasonable income. I don’t need much to get by anyway.

Update: Thanks to everyone who submitted questions and comments. Adnan will be answering about 30 questions over the next hour, so bear with us as he types up his answers.

Britney's Comeback Plans

The following italicized article is from www.ok-magazine.com:

Gone are the pink wigs, ratty hair and fake british accent the world has come to associate with Britney Spears. In their place, a fresh faced, natural brunette who has been reporting to work, making regular visits with her sons and seems in general, to be focused on taking her life back.

On March 24, the once reigning pop star made a highly anticipated cameo appearance on the CBS sitcom, How I Met Your Mother. Her performance was so good, she managed to wow not only the audience, but her co-stars as well.

"The only thing scandalous about this is how un-scandalous it all is," says HIMYM co-star, Josh Radnor, of Britney's appearance on the show.

Playing Abby, the nerdy receptionist, the bit part is just one of the baby steps the singer seems bent on taking to get back in fighting form. As she begins to rediscover herself, she seems to also be rediscovering her love for dance.

In addition to teaching kids at Millennium Dance Complex, the singer has been rehearsing alone, stopping in for two hours at a time to learn a chair routine for her new song, Hot as Ice. Sources say Britney may even want to open her own dance studio in the future and is considering The Dome, a 25oo sq. foot section of Millennium, currently closed.

Even Brit's father, Jamie Spears, seems to be loosening up on his rules---a bit.

"Britney is addicted to driving," An insider tells OK!. "Initially, her father wouldn't let her drive at all, but he knows how much she loves it and it calms her, so he's softened the restriction. He now lets her toodle around the block in her gated community."
