Britney Spears has a bun in the oven
After weeks of grape-vine talk, rumors and speculation, all the dust has fanally cleared regarding Britney and pending motherhood. The pop diva has announced that she is indeed has a bun in the oven (translation: she's pregnant) and is over the moon about it.
The news came courtesy of the singer's official website yesterday where she wrote: The time has finally come to share our wonderful news that we are expecting our first child together. There were reports that I was in the hospital this weekend. Kevin and I just want everyone to know that all is well. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. Love Britney and Kevin."
Although she didn't specify how far along she is, reports state that has the sexy seron is about four months along making her expected due date to be sometime in September. Her hubby Kevin Federline must have that 'supersperm' thing going as this is his third child in 4 years (he has two children from a previous relationship with actress Shar Jackson - daughter Kori, 3, and son Kaleb, eight months).
As to what sex is the child gonna be again it's rumored to be a girl but the singer is being hush hush about it. More to come on this one I'm sure.

The turbulent times that she's endured the last few years seems to be all behind her now as the lovely (and sexy I might add) Mariah Carey gears up to release her latest effort on her own record label 'MonarC Records' - 'The Emancipation of Mimi'
The darling diva of the 90s had some setbacks in the new millennium as both her acting and singing career suffered. Her starring role in the movie 'Glitter' in 2003 garnered poor reviews and suffered the same fate at the box office while the soundtrack to the film fared an even worse fate selling fewer than a half million copies.
The new album which she co-wrote, produced and executive produced sees the sexy seron at her very best as atested in the album's first single 'It's Like That' which has garnered rave reviews across the boards. The new set hit stores tomorrow and from the early buzz looks to be a winner for Mariah.
