See, when she first came out, I thought she was a sweet, good looking girl. After a while, I had to ask ‘Why is she wearing that?’ - I thought that if you had that kind of money and fame, you could at least buy a bra that doesn’t show underneath your halter top. Hell, if I can do it, a superstar can too. When she married Kevin Federline, I just asked ‘why?’ The man’s image screams ‘Don’t marry me, I’m a useless heap of shit who will spend all your money and fail to use protection.’ Plus he looks kind of vermin-y, which sealed it for me. ---

[QUOTE=Foldup Rabbit] Also, I give it eighteen months before no one remembers who Kevin Federline is. [/QUOTE] I only know who he is because of her. What was his status pre-Brit? ---

I have something horrible to admit. It’s really, really awful. In fact, I think you guys are going to revoke my membership. I own Kevin Federline’s CD “Playing with Fire.” And not a pirated copy, but an honest to God straight from the website, preordered, delivered to my house copy. Honestly, the roomie and I thought that it was well worth the $10 because of the hillarity that would ensue. I even got an 8 x 10 signed by the man himself. Hell, we framed it and stuck it in our entry way for laughs. All of our guests get this shocked look ( :eek: ), then raise an eyebrow ( :dubious: ), then try to nicely ask what it is, all while tiptoeing and trying not to hurt our feelings. In the mean time, [I take funny pictures with the picture.](http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0TQD1AvcWQHHu5ZmyD98zVmZ6vFhHxn8bJwds8mhlNrt5rnYMlScZmxp3HRUr3eYcD2u53TiWQhNSL7xUTFujOeCHqQSdqTBKfpNi*B3YWOa9EitmqT7WYw/Kfed%20040.jpg?dc=4675596343430934294) Actually, there are a few songs on the CD that are worth listening to if you like mindless pop or rap with decent enough beats. You can get your ass shake on to a little “Lose Control” if you’re in the right mood. Sadly, Popozao makes no appearance on the album. But yeah, the whole divorce thing threw me for a loop. The whole thing happened during the 5 hour period when I was at school. I came home, read the headline (which naturally wasn’t something to do with the election happening today), and squealed in all of my 20 year old gossip whore glory. I loves it, as they say. There is a video floating around of Kfed actually getting the text saying his marriage was over. I actually felt a bit bad for him [after seeing the video (You Tube).](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkq0w6ua_Sg) ---

I found my post on a Britney thread from last year 12-05-2005: “I don’t sympathize with either of them. I feel bad for the kid whose parents are a couple of users who are in it for what they can get out of the deal. She wanted a baby…period. Finds sperm donor Kevin, decides to make it legit she better marry him first, gets what she wants out of the deal (baby) and dumps the guy. Sperm donor Kevin has nothing better going on, has no job, but likes using his looks to mooch off chicks with money so he can basically do nothing but have a lot of nice crap. Britney offered, he took. Sorry folks, no love here. She got her baby, he got his temporary bling. That was the deal from the begining. Both in it for themselves.” I think my opinion remains the same. ---

I think it’s all of those Letters of Fug over on Go Fug Yourself ([here’s](http://gofugyourself.typepad.com/go_fug_yourself/2006/11/letter_of_fug_p.html) the latest one), but I find myself actually caring and being glad for Britney on this. I am glad for her. She made a mistake and she realized it. Good for her. ---

**Hampshire** you’re very very wrong about Kevin Federline having any looks. Britney is a trainwreck and an idiot-easy to determine from her reality show (shuddup…it was on during summer). I’m glad she’s back to letting her handlers run her life because they do a way better job than her. Oh, and she’s hot again, actually. ---

[Look at K-Fed in this pic](http://www.salon.com/ent/feature/2006/11/07/federline/index_np.html), he appears to be seriously mentally, uh, damaged (I’d say “retarded,” or “handicapped” but I’m sure those folks would be insulted to know that they’re being compared to him). The fact that the Britster would be willing to bear his spawn makes her that much less appealing to me than her vacuous music does. ---
