Brit-Brit Goes British, K-Fed Keeps Kids

This all broke last night and I actually had a hard time sleeping without sharing it - seriously! Well, it was either that or my medications, but I'm pretty sure it was the whole Britney thing.

So Britney did finally show up for the custody hearing yesterday - well, almost. She got in her limo, showed up at the courthouse around 1:30PM, circled the building a few times, then went to church, then she and her new boyfriend grabbed a bite to eat at a local sidewalk cafe. Obviously, Kevin Federline was granted custody, but he and his attorneys were more than gracious about the whole matter, whereas I would have been more like, "That does it; the kids are mine."

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm so cruel - read on, Gentle Readers, read on...

So Britney Spears is speaking in a British accent now - no kidding. Several friends are saying it's because she's preparing for an upcoming film role, but let's be honest: who the hell would cast Britney Spears in a role at this point in her life? Others are saying this is just one more "quirk" in a long line of "eccentricities." I personally think she's milking this whole "crazy" thing for all it's worth. Hear me out on this:

Britney has been taking a lot of heat for all her bizarre behavior lately and she obviously can't be bothered with that guy's kids, so she's snowing her way through the entire thing with this British accent and all this other weird behavior in order to have something to pin it all on later. Yes, it's outlandish and wacky, but... it's Britney Spears, y'all! Da-ang!

Think about it: in a few months, she can revive her entire career by having another major breakdown, where the doctors will finally say she is "officially" the victim of some kind of mental illness, and she can point back to this long line of crazy to "prove" that. Everyone feels sorry for her and gives her a pass, and suddenly she's back on top.

I sincerely hope this isn't the case, because if it is, it's reprehensible and inexcusable. Let's hope she does have some kind of movie role because I am no longer so certain she is as crazy as she wants us to believe... or she's crazier than a shithouse rat and shouldn't eat without a helmet...
