For thems as has wondered if she’s really trailer trash or not: yep, with her first kid 8 months, she’s preggers again. link.
Thank god. Now that Katie’s spawned, and Angelina’s gonna pop any day, whose waistline would we watch?
Dang; they’ll almost be Irish Twins! I’m guessing she didn’t breastfeed, or she wouldn’t have gotten preggers again so soon. [Seinfeld]Not that there’s anything wrong with that… [/Seinfeld]
Boy, K-Fed ought to enter those swimmers in the next Olympics…
Trailer trash?
That’s nothin’. We have three kids about 30 months apart and the wife breastfed the whole time. Lessee, one was born Dec of '99, the next April of '01 and the last Sept of '03.
So Brit is preggers again. I hope they make a better statue of it this time.
“Trailer trash?”
If this was a BLACK woman we were talking about, from a lower-class background, and she was in the same situation, there is no way, no way in hell, that you or anyone else who fashioned him or herself a part of polite society would wonder out loud “whether she was really from the ghetto” after hearing about another baby on the way.
Even though close to 1/3 of black babies are born out of wedlock, and there are countless racist jokes about the black woman with her 10 children with 10 last names, it is only acceptable in polite society (and this message board is definitely the polite society of the often dirty, sophomoric and unregulated internet) to make fun of the sexual habits and lifestyles of lower-class WHITES.
This is my first time on this message board wherein I am debating something like this, usually I prefer not to stir shit up, but I have to say I’m kind of uncomfortable at the way you’re talking about Britney Spears. She is definitely trashy, there’s no doubt about it. She dresses hideously, she has bad taste in men - this I can’t argue with. But making fun of someone’s child-bearing and sexual habits in connection with their social class…that’s sort of in poor taste.
I don’t live in a trailer. I come from an upper middle class background. Maybe I’m on an ivory tower. I went to high school with lots of Camaro-driving guys who chewed Skoal and Kodiak and rode dirt bikes and worked on farms, and those guys happily referred to themselves and each other as rednecks, and maybe those guys and most guys like them don’t give a damn about the words “white trash” and “redneck” and other slang terms for “lower-class white” (even though plenty of these guys’ dads owned construction businesses or other shit like that and had nice houses and lots of land, and luxuries like motorcycles and 4-wheelers and boats and things that the average suburban kid never sees because the cost of living in the suburbs is higher.) The rednecks I went to school with were Redneck Lite. The real rednecks weren’t in high school, they were busy working actual jobs. Maybe I don’t know shit about rednecks, and like I said, maybe I’m on an ivory tower. But there’s a double standard about the white poor and the black poor, in that it’s ok to make fun of the former and not the latter. That strikes me as a little unfair.
So noted.
Britney isn’t/wasn’t trailer trash by any definition. She grew up middle class, with her parents paying for all kinds of gymnastics/dance lessons, etc.
She is white trash. I’ve said it for years.
By squeezing out a pair of pups in less than a year she resembles the stereotypical trailer trash one sees on shows like COPS: a southern accent and a litter of babies.
Sorry dude, this country’s still on a long guilt trip.
Her childbearing isn’t why she is white trash. It’s her nasty, cheeto-eating, husband, her terrible personal hygiene (barefoot at gas stations), getting CPS called on her, etc., etc.
And then there’s this for evidence:

Dude, black people make fun of the “black poor” all of the time. Ever seen The Chappelle Show? No one was up in arms over that stuff.
I’m from small town Indiana and went to college in Muncie, IN, if that doesn’t qualify me to recognize white trash then nothing will. 
I think Britney is a perfect example of the notion that money doesn’t buy class.
Man, God muse really hate me. My husband and I have trying to have a baby for almost 4 years, with no luck, and Britney’s popping them out like she’s a human Pez dispenser.
I wonder if our problem is that the two of us wear shoes when we enter public restooms …
… or perhaps it’s because I’m the Worst. Typer. Ever.
Oops! She did it again!
…Thank you.
Yeah, instead of “…by any definition…”, I should’ve said “…by economic definition, anyway…”.
I don’t really get the connection between having another baby so soon and her trashiness. I think of her as trashy in the cheap, sleazy context, as opposed to the “white trash” i.e., poor, dirty, no class sense.
As far as making comments about whites with their multiple children / multiple baby daddy being more acceptable than making those same comments about blacks, I’m pretty much gonna spread the derision evenly. It’s phenomenally irresponsible behavior, regardless of the skin color of the breeder.
Ms. Spears has more than enough money to support her two children (three if you count KFed) so I’m not too bothered. I am kind of surprised, though, 'cause I thought they broke up a long time ago (?)
And don’t forget the number of times that Spawn #1 has been dropped on his head.
Well, that’s the fault of the doctor who told her that she had a “bouncing baby boy”.
SighLouisiana can’t win. It has a great musical heritage that Britney Speers ruins like a moustache on the Mona Lisa.
As for child 2.0, having children so close together is very bad for a woman’s health. I think it would go double for Speers since she seems to keep a very thin figure. (Women gain weight when they’re pregnant for a reason! When you have kids you need to give up the pre-pubescent look.)
