Britney Spears Thinks She Is Cursed, Badly Needs a Brain

This latest news in the Brit Brit saga is the funniest one I heard in ages. The crazy trainwreck apparently thinks that her latest streak of misfortunes - losing custody of her sons, failing a court ordered drugs test, facing a string of driving convictions, her ridiculous comeback performance at the MTV Video Music Awards - all that is due to her being cursed. No, really? And there was me thinking that was life as usual for the chaotic former Mrs. Federline. But no, it seems it's all down to a curse and therefore Brit has been stocking up on lucky charms in the hope of reversing her fortune.

A source told America's OK! magazine: "Britney went shopping and picked out a hoodie with a print of a four-leaf clover because she thought it would help bring her luck. She said she needed all the luck she could get after the past few months. She joked she'd start carrying around a rabbit's foot if it meant her 'curse' would go away". Here's a thought: why doesn't she carry around some brains? That would make a difference. And I'm sure all those nasty things people say about her would simply disappear.

And talking about bad luck, I doubt there's a bigger irony in this world than seeing your kids brought up by your ex husband's ex wife. Shar Jackson has been helping to care for Britney's sons with Kevin, Sean Preston, two, and 14-month-old Jayden James.


Shar - who has two children with Kevin, five-year-old Kori and three-year-old Kaleb - said: "We definitely make sure the kids all bond together. I mean, they're siblings, they need each other. We're not together or anything but we're definitely still a family unit. Honestly, we're like the best of friends. Obviously, the relationship didn't work out for a reason, and we're cool with that. But we're still a part of each other's lives. And our children get to see two people who aren't together but still have a great relationship, and I think that's really important."

K-Fed currently has full temporary custody of the boys, while Britney has three visits a week (which she usually spends dumping the kids in the car and shopping for chandeliers, expensive cars and horses' shoes). Shar revealed Kevin is coping well with the bitter custody battle, but he doesn't like to discuss it. Of course not, since for him there's not much to discuss except "I need money. I need Britney's money". Maybe both Brit and K-Fed need some brains. But who am I to give advice? They definitely know best.
