Britney's Mom's Memoir Apparently Riveting

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

Publishing insiders are all a-twitter about Lynne Spears's memoir about her troubled pop-star daughter Britney.

CEO Michael Hyatt, of Christian publisher Thomas Nelson, microblogs: "I'm reading through the second draft of the Lynne Spears manuscript tonight. I am hoping to be able to approve it tomorrow. It's totally compelling." A few minutes later: " I can't put it down—and I'm not even the market!" One hour later: "Wow. People are going to be surprised. The media have it so wrong."

Teach us, Lynne.

Britney Snubbed By Emmy

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

Good thing Britney Spears gets to spend more time with her boys these days because she won't be spending any time with TV's Golden Girl soon. Despite the fact that her appearance in the "Ten Sessions" episode of "How I Met Your Mother" was submitted for Emmy consideration, she's not on the Top 10 list of semifinalists for best guest actress in a comedy series.

Too bad. Britney Spears actually earned a few decent reviews for her performance as a receptionist in a doctor's office, including the New York Daily News, which said — with no intent of snarkiness: "Spears proved she can act every bit as well as she can sing." TV Guide critic Matt Roush said Britney was "harmless and (dare I say) kind of cute" in the role, but "Scrubs" star Sarah Chalke — who portrayed Britney's boss — "walked away with the episode." However, Chalke failed to make this Emmy Top 10 list too.

Brit's Secret Dude

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

Sources tell TMZ Britney Spears has been secretly seeing a suitor. You'll never guess who. What the hell, we'll tell you -- it's Adnan!

Our sources say over the last few months Adnan has been getting into The Summit, the gated community where Brit lives. They have been "together," though we can't say it's still going on. We know they have been texting back and forth, at times complaining that Daddy Jamie is too "controlling" by trying to put the kibosh on the relationship.

But here's the deal. Daddy Jamie's job is to be controlling -- that's what a conservator does. And, sources tell us, Jamie's concern over his daughter seeing Adnan is not just his opinion -- the doctors who are treating Brit have told him it would be a bad thing for Brit to hook up with the dude.

Stay tuned.

For Sale! Brit's Mickey Mouse Memorabilia

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

Long before there was "Oops, I Did It Again" and her subsequent public meltdowns, little Britney Spears was a squeaky-clean castmember of the Mickey Mouse Club.

Now you can own a piece of that innocent history. Find out how!

A Mickey Mouse Club T-shirt that Spears owned and gifted to one of her grandmothers will be up for auction later this month from New York's Gotta Have It memorabilia site. It's expected to go for as much as $20,000 because it's also signed by fellow castmembers, including Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera and Keri Russell.

Why she gave it to her grandmother, I don't know, but the future pop star signed it, "I love you grandma."

Also on the block will be one of Madonna's daily planners from the late-'80s. That should fetch between $9,000 and $11,000, according to an auction rep.

GottaHaveIt.com's Rock & Roll Pop Art Auction starts July 21.
