Jamie Lynn Spears Efforts to Keep Baby Away From Britney Spears, Hollywood

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

Britney Spears little sister Jamie Lynn Spears is a brand new mom at the very young age of seventeen and as this isn't "Juno" she is keeping her baby and has been bonding at home in Liberty, Mississippi with daughter Maddie Briann, who was born June 19. It has been reported that Jamie Lynn spears really wants to keep her little one away from Hollywood and that of course means away from Britney.

Jamie Lynn is happy to be home. "She sings to her, holds and rocks her and takes at least 100 pictures a day," a family insider tells weekly entertainment magazine Life & Style. "Jamie Lynn is so protective of Maddie," the insider says. "She's taken to being a mother so naturally."

There was so much drama surrounding the birth it is good to hear at least one report that claims that Jamie Lynn is making an effort to keep her child out of the Britney like spotlight. Her sister Britney was at the birth but that was even high drama according to an earlier report from the Enquirer.

The magazine reported at the time that after acting like a spoiled brat when her little sister gave birth, Britney Spears flew back to Los Angeles after only one day, leaving even before her sister got out of the hospital. "Britney seemed very anxious and couldn't sit still. She was moody and complained about everything. Plus, she had to fly commercial, and that really pit her in a foul mood," said an insider.

Tuesday! And it's actually been quite a good news day today -- so we've all been extremely busy!

Anyway, a round-up of some of our favorite stories of the day, below.

Madonna Producers Deny Britney Spears' Live Stage Performance On Tour

Britney Spears to film footage for Madonna tour

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

NEW YORK (AP) — Madonna has recruited Britney Spears for a virtual appearance on her upcoming tour.

"There is footage being shot of Britney some time this week in conjunction with Madonna's upcoming (Sticky & Sweet) tour," Madonna's publicist, Liz Rosenberg, said in an e-mail Tuesday to The Associated Press. "That is all the information I have available. The rest is `a secret.'"

Rosenberg denied reports that Spears, 26, is shooting a music video.

Madonna guest starred in a music video for Spears' single "Me Against the Music" in 2003. The singers stirred up controversy that year with an open-mouth kiss at the MTV Video Music Awards.

Madonna, 49, will kick off her tour Aug. 23 in Cardiff, Wales, and wind through European destinations including London and Paris before jumping to the U.S. in October.

She'll wrap it up Nov. 30 in Mexico City.

Britney Spears To Film Video For Madonna's Sticky & Sweet Tour

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

Madonna personally requested Spears' participation, one source says.

Five years after they famously locked lips at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards, Madonna and Britney Spears are set to work together again. This time, however, their hook-up will be long-distance.

According to People magazine, Spears is slated to film a video piece soon that will be included as part of the stage show for Madonna's upcoming Sticky & Sweet Tour. "Britney is going to film something for Madonna's show in the next week or so," said Madonna's longtime spokesperson, Liz Rosenberg, according to the magazine. Details on what the clip will include, however, were scarce, as Rosenberg declined to comment on what role Spears will play in the production or where she will be filming. "I don't know. It's a secret," she said

She did, however, deny published reports that Spears is in New York to film the video and that she's already shot the bit. This would be the second high-profile cameo for Spears in the past month. She shot some footage for the Pussycat Dolls' "When I Grow Up" video last month, but her part was left on the cutting-room floor at the last minute.

An unnamed source told USMagazine.com that "Madonna specifically asked to work with Britney again." The singers have not shared a stage since the infamous VMA kiss, but Madonna did speak out in Spears' defense earlier this year when the singer was going through some hard personal times.

At the time, Madonna also said she was digging Spears' Blackout album, which she listened to while working out.

Spears' manager, Larry Rudolph, confirmed to "Access Hollywood" that the video tribute would be taking place but quashed rumors that Spears would actually be touring with or performing live with Madonna. The Sticky & Sweet Tour kicks off in the U.S. on October 4 in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

It's Britney B*tch

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

British paper the SUN reported this morning that singer Britney Spears has been asked to shoot a video for Madonna's Sticky & Sweet Tour.

MadonnaTribe News can now confirm this and exclusively give you more info on the subject, for the very first time online.

EXCLUSIVE

Singer Britney Spears has indeed been asked to shoot a video for Madonna's new tour and it's not going to be a video interlude, but a video used while Madonna is singing on stage.

The video will be directed by the one and only Steven Klein, that as previously reported here, will take care of two brand videos for the show, one for an oldie (this one) and one for a new track off Hard Candy.

The original idea behind Human Nature 2008 was to give out an updated version of the song by showing the artists, mainly troubled young hollywood stars, that are being treated as "bitches" by the world press and media, in a similar way they did with Madonna back in 1992 when she the main target of such media attentions.

But Britney is now the main star of the screen video, and while musically Human Nature 2008 originally contained spoken samples of Gimme More, now the concept has been expanded even more with samples of the track, making it longer and cooler and it can easily be described as a sort Human Nature/Gimme More mash up!

Madge asks Britney back on stage

The following italicized article is from www.thesun.co.uk:

MADONNA has asked troubled BRITNEY SPEARS to join her on tour — and pals hope she will give guidance to the young star.

The Queen Of Pop, 49, is set to record a video with Britney, 26, in New York tomorrow.

The footage will be broadcast on huge screens as part of Madge’s Sticky and Sweet tour, which kicks off on August 23.

Madonna has also invited Britney to appear in person on some of the world tour dates.

A source close to Britney revealed: “They are recording a video together on Sunday that will provide the backdrop for part of Madonna’s show.

“And they are talking about Britney taking the stage on a few of the dates too.

“There’s no doubt that her and Britney together will spell fireworks again.

Comeback

“It’s hoped that Madonna can help Britney get back to her old self. Appearing with Madonna would really kickstart her career again. She’s been there and done it so could provide some great guidance.”

Britney and Madonna stunned fans at the MTV Music Awards in 2003 by sharing a passionate kiss.

The source added: “If anyone can mastermind a Britney comeback, it’s Madonna.

“Lots of people will be hoping there’s a repeat of the kissing incident a few years ago.”

The Toxic singer has always been a huge fan of Madge — and even converted to her Kabbalah religion. But it has been reported that their relationship cooled after Britney lost interest in the mystical Jewish faith.

The source added: “Maybe this means Britney is ready to devote to Kabbalah again as she tries to sort herself out.”

Madonna’s new tour to support album Hard Candy promises to be her sexiest yet.

She will turn 50 a week before it kicks off in Cardiff — but still plans to shock fans with a controversial stage show.

The singer will even pretend to be MUMMIFIED as part of a routine.
