Claim: Britney Pressuring Jason Trawick About Marriage
The following italicized article is from www.gossipcop.com:“Britney Spears is letting her emotions run away with her!” begins a Showbiz Spy post.
Uh, huh…
The site goes on to explain, “Sources say the troubled singer — who has been married twice before — is pestering boyfriend Jason Trawick to walk her down the aisle!”
A so-called Showbiz Spy “source” claims, “She keeps bugging him about marriage and he’s finding it annoying.”
Equally annoying are stories that aren’t fact-checked.
A source close to the singer confirms to Gossip Cop that the story is absolutely “untrue” and everything remains the status quo.
Guess Showbiz Spy just let its “emotions run away.”

Nicole Morier Working on 7th Album
The following italicized article is from www.theprophetblog.com:Unless you’re a hardcore Britney Spears stan or a fan of underground electro-rock, then you may not be familiar with singer-songwriter Nicole Morier. Besides her own solo music, Nicole is best known for co-writing three Britney songs — “Heaven on Earth” from Blackout, “Rock Me In” and the wacky “Mmm Papi” from Circus – and now in a new interview, Nicole has revealed that she’s currently penning tracks for Britney’s seventh album, and that she’s already heard one of the tracks that Britney has recorded for the upcoming LP.
“I’m writing songs at this moment and I heard one that she recorded that someone else wrote that sounded amazing. I’m excited to see what she will come up with this time. She always impresses me by how innovative and current she sounds.”
It gets better. Nicole also goes on to say that she’d love to get Britney in the studio with epic electro band MSTRKRFT (listen to one of their best songs here).
“I worked with MSTRKRFT last month. They don’t do too much pop songwriting, but I’m convinced it’d be so great to get their sound to someone like Britney, it’s so heavy.”
Please excuse me for one moment as I shake and cry.
*shaking & crying*
There was also some random Britney praise scattered throughout the rest of the interview.
“I love how Britney can twist a dark lyric like “Womanizer” into an upbeat club anthem.”
“I heard Toxic and was just blown away by its pop perfection. To me it’s one of the best dance pop records of all time.”
On “Heaven on Earth: “I wrote it from a rather dark place and it was the first time I really wrote something so unmasked and honest. Britney sounds so amazing and Freescha did such a cool production as well.”
Nicole Morier is clearly a very intelligent, honest and well adjusted young woman.
Just so you know, I consider “Mmm Papi” to be one of the craziest, most exciting and underrated non-singles of Britney’s career. Plus, “Heaven on Earth” is such a twisted love song, and happens to be Britney’s personal favorite track from Blackout, so I’d love to see them work together again.

Britney Spears's Dinner Date with Jason Trawick – and His Parents!
The following italicized article is from www.people.com:They've been romantically linked since last summer, and Saturday Britney Spears and beau Jason Trawick had special guests join them at dinner: his parents.

They dined from about 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. on meatballs and margarita pizza, and an onlooker at the restaurant says Spears enjoyed the quality time with his folks.
"She seemed to fit in very well with his family," the source tells PEOPLE.com. "She seemed very comfortable. She was very warm to them."
As for Spears and Trawick, who have already fended off engagement rumors, they appeared to be a happy couple, keeping it romantic but low-key.

Yes, They're STILL Talking About It
The following italicized article is from www.people.com:Talk about a bad hair day! Britney Spears was snapped shopping in Sherman Oaks, California, Wednesday with a messy, extension baring look that set the internet abuzz with fans speculating about exactly what was happening to her scalp. Was she going bald? Were her extensions done incorrectly? We checked in with hairstylist-to-the stars Ken Paves–who has his own line of extensions that he uses on clients like Eva Longoria Parker and Jessica Simpson–to learn the truth.
“It’s not that big of a deal actually, we have all seen this before. A case of bed head, who hasn’t had it?,” Paves tells PEOPLE. “The truth is that this is exactly how these extensions are applied, however we are not supposed to see them, that’s all. There are thousands and thousands of women walking around whose hair looks just like that ‘underneath’. The remedy is simply to cover it up. It’s not a case of bad extensions, just a bad hair day!” His recommendation? “I am more concerned with the friend walking behind her who didn’t tell her right away! Ladies, support your sisters and stay on weave patrol, your day may come too! Help a sister out!”

Is Mel Gibson’s Secret Confidante… Britney Spears?
The following italicized article is from www.gossipcop.com:According to In Touch, Mel Gibson’s recent troubles have left him with just one friend.
And who might that be?
None other than Britney Spears.
Yes, you read that right.
According to the tab’s source, “Mel has been talking to her a lot. They speak on the phone all the time, usually at night.”
And what does Gibson allegedly tell the pop star?
The actor “has been pouring his heart out to her– confiding that he fears for his sanity and is convinced he’s destroyed his once-hot career,” claims the mag.
But a source very close to Spears assures Gossip Cop that the story is nothing more than a complete fabrication.
“She’s not talking to Mel,” says our rock-solid source, adding that there’s “not an ounce of truth” to In Touch’s report.

Britney Spears Shopsfor Today's Outfit and More
The following italicized article is from www.fadedyouthblog.com:Britney Spears was spotted strolling around The Commons at Calabasas in CA today (July 19) with her bodyguards to do a little shopping.
The Womanizer singer arrived in one outfit only to end up leaving in a new cute summer-ready white dress from Theodore fashion store — and that’s not the only thing the pop princess purchased!
Britney emerged from Polacheck’s Jewelers wearing a new necklace that sparkled when the sun hit the pendent.
After the summer shopping spree, Britney and her crew of bodyguards made their way over to Baja Fresh for some Mexican food where she slipped a smile to the photographers before heading off on her way.
In other recent news, Brit plans to launch her ninth and latest fragrance Radiance later this year.
Following the release of last year’s Fantasy spin-offs Circus Fantasy and Hidden Fantasy, Radiance sees Miss Spears teaming up with Elizabeth Arden again for the eau de parfum. The fragrance — which comes in comes in an eye-popping blue and pink rhinestone encrusted bottle — reportedly features touches of wild berries and soft florals with tuberose, jasmine, orange flower and iris.

Britney Cleard of All Child Abuse Allegations
The following italicized article is from www.radaronline.com:Britney Spears' complicated life just got a little easier as the child abuse investigation against her was dropped by the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, RadarOnline.com learned exclusively.
The investigation was sparked by allegations made by former bodyguard Fernando Flores who had accused her of beating her two sons, Sean Preston, 4, and Jayden James, 3.
The department said there was "absolutely no truth to the accusations," a Spears' family insider told RadarOnline.com.
"Sean and Jayden's pediatricians submitted documentation that the boys were healthy, and that they have never seen any signs of abuse. The case was officially closed after the department received that information from the boys' doctor," revealed the source.
Social workers initially visited the singer's home after Flores made shocking allegations that she beaten the boys with a belt that he had been wearing.
The claim was, "absolutely outlandish and absurd. Britney would never lay a hand on either one of her sons, she loves them so much," said the insider.
"Flores is an opportunist seeking his 15 minutes of fame," revealed another source close to the family.
Britney and her ex-husband Kevin Federline have reached, "common ground with the boys, and they truly parent them together," an eyewitness tells us.

July 17 - Britwick Out and About Town
Britney and Jason were out on sunny Saturday afternoon in Santa Monica. The couple were cruising the upscale Montana Avenue shops. Brit and her guy ducked into a small Indian restaurant for a late afternoon bite, then to Pete's for a Coffee to go. Not many shoppers seem to notice Brit in her tight dress and heels. They did slip out the back of Pete's, and her two security guys were keeping a close eye out for photographers. Source: Untouchable Britney
Rumour: Britney To Duet with Sky Ferreira
The following italicized article is from www.guardian.co.uk:She is currently working on her debut album with Swedish production gods Bloodshy & Avant and, in the mother (naughty kid sister?) of all generational team-ups, she will soon be collaborating with Britney Spears on a 90s-inspired electro number produced by rap mogul Cisco Adler called Age is Just a Number, after the two met at a Barnes & Noble in west Hollywood, where Spears recognised Ferreira from her video blog.
"I think we all knew this was coming," La Ferreira said with a laugh at the VMA awards, "but it's an honour to work with such a legend!" The honour will be all Britney's. Prince will be sick when he hears it (she's also lined up to cover Nasty Girl by Vanity Six).

Britney Launching a New Fragrance Called 'Radiance'
+-+5+2010.jpg)
If you're already of fan of the Pop Princess and love her scents, you'll be very happy to know her newest fragrance, Radiance is slated to hit stores in late September! I know it's a log way off for the blogosphere but I wanted to be the first to share the news with all you Britney fans.If not for anything else, I'd buy this fragrance just to keep this rhinestone-adorned bottle on my dresser. It's so over-the-top but I love it. The top notes of the new scent are wild berries and soft, dewy petals. Very feminine! The fragrance is also bursting with tuberose, jasmine, orange flower and iris. The delicate aromas come together to form an unforgettable and utterly irresistible scent.
Perfume junkies may be happy to know this fragrance has a light musk scent to it as well, which really makes it oh-so-covetable. I'm generally not big on celebrity fragrances but Britney has offered up some pleasantly surprising ones in the past. I think you'll be just as pleased with this one, if not more.
Keep an eye out for this gorgeous and sensual fragrance around the end of September 2010 (believe it or not, it's quickly approaching!) at The Bay, Sears and Pharmaprix/Shopper's Drug Mart ($63 for 50 mL; $78 for 100 mL).

Petition: Re-Vamp BritneySpears.com
To whom it may concern,As a fan of Britney Spears, I support her in any way i can; I buy her music, I watch her performances, and I follow her on her various media sites (Facebook, Twitter, etc). It has come to my attention that for a quite some time, a number of Britney fans have shown distaste to her official site, BritneySpears.com. Many, including myself, believe the site is immature and would be better suited for a younger artist. Many of her fans range in age, though many sit between the teen and adult range. I'm sure Britney's team notices this, so why is her site trying to reach a demographic of people much younger than her hardcore fan base.
We fans aren't asking much. What we'd like to see is a re-vamped version of the site; a new layout that is fitting for a mature twenty-eight year old pop star, not an up-and-coming child star. We would be so much more appreciative of the site and it's bloggers and of Team Britney.
Sincerely,
Fans of Britney Spears

Putting Britney’s Starbucks Restroom Rumor to Rest
The following italicized article is from www.gossipcop.com:Britney Spears seems to be at the center of a hairy situation.
The new issue of Star magazine claims the pop singer left more than a tip at her local Starbucks in Calabasas, CA.
“She must have been messing with her hair, because a staffer went [into the restroom] right after Britney and found a long blonde clip-in hair extension,” a source told the magazine. The “source” adds, “She’s done this before. It really grosses out the staff.”
A rep for Spears told Gossip Cop there is no truth to the story.
Since the magazine so often gets the “big” things about Spears wrong — claiming she was pregnant; insisting she was planning a wedding; reporting on a supposed bodyguard fling — it’s no surprise its Starbucks story is off by more than a hair.

More 'Glee' News
The following italicized article is from www.tvguide.com:Here's one Glee fans should have seen coming: That upcoming Britney Spears-themed episode? It will revolve around New Directions' own Brittany (Heather Morris).
Of course!
Series creator Ryan Murphy tells TVGuide.com exclusively that McKinley High's deliciously ditzy Cheerio Brittany will be at the center of Season 2's tribute to Spears.
And it gets better. Brittany will be belting out not one, but two of the pop star's tunes. "Heather's actually got a terrific voice," Murphy says.
No word yet on which numbers they'll be, but just imagine the possibilities: Brittany could sing "Boys" (because she's hooked up with everyone, even Kurt) or "Toxic" (which could be her ode to Kurt!)
Would "Oops!...I Did It Again" be too obvious? Hmm...
Morris already seems sold on the idea. "I heard there's a Britney Spears episode coming up and fingers crossed that I get to sing, because I play Brittany and I'm like, 'Oh my god, it's insane,'" Morris told E! Online last month.
Glee fans won't have to wait long to find out how Morris sounds. Murphy said the Spears-powered hour will be the second episode to air next season.

Rumour: Britney Finalizing Album Tracklist
According to PoorBritney.com a source has told them that Britney has been hard at work in the studio lately and is almost close to finishing her new album. In fact, they claim she's so close that they're already finalizing the tracklist.For the record, PC honestly states that they have no way of verifying this information.
I personally choose not to believe this. While Britney has been in the recording studio since January this year she still hasn't worked with key producers such as Danja and Darkchild. Now, Britney doesn't take long to record a song, several producers have actually called her the fastest recording singer ever, but she isn't this quick lol.
I still have a feeling that a new album will be out by November since Britney's team would never dare to release in January when sales are noticably lower than in the rest of the year.
Only time will tell...

Britney on the Cover of Cosmopolitan
Article:At 28, she has five number one albums and yet another sold-out tour under her belt, proving that this superstar is as awesome as ever. Now Britney is enjoying some strict downtime...but she made an exception for Cosmo.
You've got to hand it to Britney. She didn't just bounce back last year---she commanded the spotlight and an album that produced back-to-back top-10 singles. When she took her show on the road, The Circus Starring Britney Spears ended up being the highest-grossing North American tour by a solo artist in 2009. After 97 performances around the world, Britney spent her final night under the big top in November and decided to take a well-deserved break from music. Since then, she's turned her talents to fashion and created a flirty clothing line for Candie's. "I had a lot of fun," Britney tells us. "I've never designed clothing before,and I really loved the creative process."
At the moment, she's racking up as much family time as she can. "Things are pretty quiet right now," she says. "I've been spending a lot of time at home with my boys. They just started karate class, which is supercute!" We were lucky enough to drag her away from 4-year-old Sean Preston and 3-year-old Jayden James just long enough for her to pose for a cover shoot and take one of our famous quizzes.

'No Signs of Britney Abusing Sons'
The following italicized article is from www.radaronline.com:Social workers made a visit to Britney Spears' home as part of an investigation by the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services that the singer abused her two sons, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.
The blockbuster development comes after Spears' former bodyguard, Fernando Flores, allegedly claimed that the pop star abused her sons Sean Preston and Jayden James last March or April.
Flores told a British tabloid that Britney asked Flores for his belt, and then he says he witnessed her abusing the boys.
Flores didn't get into specifics about any alleged injuries, or if one or both children were targeted.
Now RadarOnline.com has learned that a complaint was lodged against Spears, forcing DCFS to investigate.
A Spears family insider tells RadarOnline.com, "Social workers visited Britney's house recently about the alleged abuse allegations. Under California law, anytime anyone makes a report to child protective services, a welfare check is required to be made under law to further investigate.
"It doesn't matter who has made the claim, or how outlandish it may seem. During the visit by officials, there was absolutely no signs of abuse. The boys are happy well adjusted toddlers that love their mama and Britney is fiercely protective of them.
"The investigation is 95 percent complete and no further action will be required. All that is essentially going to be done at this point is for the paperwork to be finished and then the case will be closed."
Flores is described to RadarOnline.com as "an opportunist seeking his 15 minutes of fame. Flores is a former disgruntled employee that is trying to take advantage of Britney."
Britney and K-Fed were spotted at the boys' pre-school graduation together last week.
The family insider says, "Britney and Kevin parent the children together, and they have developed a very healthy relationship that truly enables the boys to thrive. They are united in parenting the boys and trying to raise them in as normal environment as possible.
"If Kevin thought for one moment that the boys were in harms way while they are with Britney, he would immediately go to family law court to have the situation addressed and dealt with. Britney is rarely alone with her sons, usually her boyfriend, Jason Tarwick, is with her during their visits, or her dad is there."
There has been absolutely no action by K-Fed or Britney regarding any custody issues with the boys, RadarOnline.com has confirmed with public records with the Los Angeles Superior Court system. The last time there was any movement was in September 2009, and that dealt with one of the parents getting one more day of visitation per week.
This isn't the first time DCFS has investigated Spears. Back in 2007, her former bodyguard, Tony Barretto, had a two-hour meeting with officials from the office and his attorney, Gloria Allred.
Barretto claimed to witness Spears using drugs, and was concerned about her then erratic behavior. Barretto requested that a formal investigation be opened into the matter. Spears eventually lost custody of her sons in early 2008 after she was placed under a psychiatric hold.
Spears has flourished since being placed under conservatorship, and she essentially has joint custody of her sons.
In 2006, when Spears was still married to Federline, a nanny accidentally dropped then 7-month-old Sean Preston, and he subsequently hit his head. DCFS visited the Spears household after Brit and Kevin took their son to the hospital and concluded there was no evidence of abuse, and no further action was taken at that time either.
Source: Radar Online
TMZ has learned a former, part-time security worker for Britney Spears contacted the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services, claiming Britney abused her sons, but his timing raises suspicions.
Sources say Fernando Flores claimed Britney whipped one of her sons with a belt. Flores made other claims that Britney abused both sons. But sources tell us Flores did not utter a peep for more than a month after he was let go.
A source close to Britney and her family tells TMZ, "The allegations made by Fernando Flores are absurd." The source adds, "Flores was never an employee of Britney. He was never an employee of the Spears family. He worked part-time for a security company."
And sources say Children Services investigated -- as they must -- and determined the claim had no merit.
Source: TMZ
Claims from Britney Spears's former bodyguard that the pop star allegedly hit her two sons with a belt are false, sources tell PEOPLE.
"Britney is quite the opposite – she doesn't discipline them enough and she will do anything to keep the boys happy," says one source close to Spears. "There are issues with Britney, but her abusing the boys are not one of them."
Fernando Flores told a British tabloid that he had witnessed Spears, 28, hitting her children, Preston, 4, and Jayden, 3, in March or April 2009, but another source tells PEOPLE the allegations are untrue.
"It's ridiculous what the guy is claiming. It never happened," says the source.
The Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services sent social workers to the singer's home, according to RadarOnline, but the visit was routine since California law requires a welfare check anytime a report is made to child protective services.
"Everything is fine," says the second source. "Britney has done nothing but be a great mom to her kids."
Spears's rep did not return requests comment.

Celeb 100 FAQ: Yes, Britney Spears Really Made $64 Million Last Year. Here's How.
The following italicized article is from www.forbes.com:When Britney Spears popped up at no. 6 on our Celebrity 100 list, we too thought it must be some sort of technical glitch in the number crunching process. What else could explain the placement of the former head-shaving, umbrella-swinging, rehab-visiting pop-tart near the top of a list of the world’s most powerful stars? Could this one-time train wreck really be that rich or that important to the entertainment business?
The answer is yes. The Britney Spears who made our list was not the tabloid target whose frequent meltdowns only two years ago relegated her to our infamy index. Instead, the 28-year-old that clocked in in our top 10 was the chart-topping songstress whose past 12 months included the 5th highest-grossing tour of the year. According to concert trade publication Pollstar, "The Circus Starring Britney Spears" tour grossed more than $130 million. Spears took in still more from tour merchandise and another greatest hits album, "The Singles Collection."
Like her savvier Hollywood cohorts, she has been similarly busy building the Spears brand, extending her fan-base –and wallet—with a host of top-selling Elizabeth Arden fragrances, an endorsement deal for Candie’s and a fashion collection for juniors. She added the latter last month, and will sell her designs exclusively at Kohl’s.
But for her to land as high on the list as she did, she needed to garner as much fame as she did money. She did. In fact, the mother of two ranked third overall in Web mentions (behind Lady Gaga and Beyonce, who banked an estimated $62 million and $87 million, respectively, during the same period) and second in a social media metric that factored in both Twitter and Facebook followings (Gaga has her beat with nearly 10 million Facebook fans).
Still more impressive: in May, Spears overtook Twitter king Ashton Kutcher as the most popular celebrity on Twitter. At last check, she had 5.2 million followers, a group with whom she responds to and frequently updates.
So no, Britney Spears is far from through. If the last year is any indication, she's just getting started.
