The Latest News for Britney Spears
Britney, 26, made a surprise appearance at a fundraiser for Jenny McCarthy’s autism charity Generation Rescue in LA on Saturday.
As guests like Jim Carrey and Charlie Sheen and wife Brooke Mueller made the rounds, Britney sipped on red wine.
Jim’s daughter Jane also belted out a few Frank Sinatra and Jackson 5 tunes.
Britney ”definitely looked happy,” a witness told Us magazine. “She was clapping and smiling a lot.”
It was Britney’ first public outing since reaching a custody agreement with ex Kevin Federline last week.
While Kevin gets sole custody, Britney gets three visits a week from Sean Preston, 2 1/2, and Jayden James, 1 1/2, including two overnights.
If all goes well, she could have her boys roughly 40 percent of the time, her attorney, Laura Wasser, has said.
Laura Wasser told the Associated Press the “difference” in Britney “from the beginning of this year to now is astonishing.”

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline’s custody war is finally over.
Britney and Kevin have reached a custody settlement and a truce will be signed Friday giving Kevin sole legal and physical custody of the couple’s two toddler sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James. He will also receive an additional $5,000 in monthly child support — for a total of $20,000 per month — from Britney.
Britney, meanwhile, will now have three visits a week from the kids, with at least two overnight visits, her attorney, Laura Wasser, told The Associated Press.
This seems sad, but hopefully what was best for the children took place. Do you think Kevin is the better choice to get sole custody of Sean Preston and Jayden James?

Jamie Lynn welcomed her daughter , Maddie Briann Aldridge, on June 19th.
Jamie Lynn shared with OK! magazine that being away from the shining lights of Hollywood is making it all easier to learn the ins and outs of first-time motherhood. “Around here, everyone has the same focus,” Jamie Lynn told OK! magazine. “The focus is family, and that’s a good way to live.”
“They’d told me it would be an eight- to 12-hour labor, and I was ready to have the baby in three to four hours,” Jamie Lynn told OK! magazine. “I had a perfect pregnancy and a perfect delivery. I was very blessed.”
Whie Jamie Lynn, 17, and her fiancé have not yet set a date for their wedding, the couple remains closer than ever. Jamie Lynn, who told OK! magazinethat while her labor was induced, she gave birth naturally and without complications, says that Casey was the one person she wanted in the delivery room with her.
“Once I got in there, my doctor was just so calm and so good it was not bad at all,” she said. “I was just talking to Casey. And you know what’s so weird? I was asking him if he was okay. He was like, ‘Yeah.’ We were both so excited.”
A baby nursery is set up for little Maddie at the other end of the house, but for now her proud parents like having her next to them at night, so she sleeps in a bassinet in the same room as Jamie Lynn and Casey.
“She is very good,” said Jamie Lynn. “She’ll feed every two or three hours. When she wakes up in the middle of the night, I’ll feed her and she goes right back to sleep. There’s no screaming and crying.”
The proud mother continued, “We get up in the morning, and she gets her little bath. Then I get my bath. We have a routine, and I love routines. I’ve worked one out with her, and we’re happy going about our little life.”

Britney Spears wants to move from her L.A. house to “a lower density, more quiet and less trafficked neighborhood,” according to a court document filed by her co-conservators, father Jamie and attorney Andrew Wallet.
Britney would like a home “more accessible to parks and recreation areas” for her children, Sean Preston, 2 1/2, and Jayden James, 1 1/2, the document says.
Saturday night was the first time Sean and Jayden spent an overnight visit with Britney, 26, since she was hospitalized at L.A.’s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in January.
The sale of her L.A. home would be in “the best interest of [Britney], her Estate and her minor children,” the document says.
Earlier this month, Britney was granted permission to sell the six-bedroom home. At the time, mom Lynne told the court that her daughter “intends to return to Louisiana,” her home state.
Meanwhile, Britney and ex Kevin Federline are preparing for a custody trial, set to begin on August 25th. Kevin currently has primary custody of their children.

(In the above pic Britney, Jamie Lynn, Lynne Spears, Casey’s sister Ashley Aldridge and his mom Joyce Aldridge were snapped at the May 2nd baby shower)
Britney reunited with her expectant sis for her May 2nd baby shower.
“It was wonderful to be able to spend time with her and just be girls again,” Jamie Lynn, 17, told OK! magazine in an interview about seeing her sister for the first time in months. “We painted our nails and did stupid stuff.”
Even better, explained Jamie Lynn, was that she was able to have some one-on-one time with Britney: “To be able to be in the privacy of our own home and just be sisters again was wonderful.”
Mother-of-two Britney even shared some words of wisdom with her pregnant sibling. “She told me, ‘There are going to be some long nights, but it is completely worth it,’” Jamie Lynn recalled to OK! magazine.
As for whether or not the pop superstar will make it back home to Louisiana when Jamie Lynn has the baby, Jamie Lynn told OK! magazine, “Nothing is set in stone, but that would be wonderful. I’d love to have her here for that, but you can’t plan that far ahead.”
Even if Britney isn’t there in person for her younger sister, the two are in almost-constant contact, said Jamie Lynn.

Jamie Lynn Spears was feted with an intimate baby shower in Kentwood, La. on Saturday.
About 30 guests were invited – including big sis Britney – to Kentwood for a ladies-only, catered celebration for the 17-year-old at the family’s Serenity mansion. (Britney hadn’t been back to her hometown since her aunt’s funeral early last year.)
“Jamie Lynn opened every gift,” says a source, adding that mom Lynne and fiancé Casey Aldridge’s mother lent a hand. “We all sat in a circle and she opened gifts and thanked every person. It was just a good old-fashioned baby shower.”
In March, the Zoey 101 star registered for baby gifts at Babies “R” Us.
Though sheriff’s deputies were posted at the gate and paparazzi circled in helicopters, “it was a normal shower,” says the source. “A wonderful, sweet occasion.”
