Aug 29 2006Britney Spears likes to waste other people's money

Britney Spears has reportedly registered online at Petit Tresor for thousands of dollars worth of baby gifts, including a $1,200 chandelier for her new baby's room.
"Oh, it's not a fake, she's having a baby shower soon and has told friends that they can order gifts from the site," a source tells the Scoop, adding, "It's not like she's expecting her friends to buy everything for the baby. She's already spent like $30,000 at the store." And the accessories and furniture strongly suggest that, as rumored, Spears is expecting a girl: although the chandelier features little airplanes, there's a preponderance of pink and frilly goodies among the merchandise.
I was thinking of buying my baby a $1,200 chandelier too but then I realized I'd rather just tape some lightbulbs together and spend the other $1,190 on something more useful. Although I can't even imagine would could be more useful than a chandelier for a baby. Maybe a Segway for the potted plant? Some speakers for the fridge?
And just for the heck of it, here are some shots of Britney Spears shopping at Intuition in Los Angeles posing like a goofball with some baby clothes. They're simultaneously totally relevant and totally irrelevant at the same time. A ton more after the jump.

Is anyone else noticing that fatty has her engagement ring on her pinki finger? I know your feet swell when your pregnant and obvoiusly, your belly, but EVERYTHING on her is swollen! WTF!
7. thatgirlwassayin - August 29, 2006 8:20 AM

i am glad that i still get carded at the clubs, and think that I would get pissed about it.
9. purplepuppy - August 29, 2006 8:24 AM
Why is she posing and mugging for the camera, but cited escaping from paparazzi as the reason for the infamous "baby-on-lap" incident, and also cried her eyeballs out to Matt Lauer about how she wants to be left alone, blah, blah, blah. Fuck!!! I want to punch her in the face.
10. suzy - August 29, 2006 8:24 AM

why is she so lame?

oh, and what a very small wedding wing for Mrs. Federline ;-)

Okay, I think she is an airhead and I really don't care for her... but the comments about her being fat... she is pregnant people. I am not sure who here has had a baby, but for most women everything swells and puffs out and you feel and look like a blimp for a while... it is just part of the deal. I know... not pretty to look at, but it is the way it is, you simply can't look slim in that hormone induced state and anyone who thinks a pregnant woman should look like a hot swim suit model when they are in that state is just looking for crap to complain about.
Now, at least she is not wearing that horrid orange dress shown yesterday. I mean, when you know you look blimpish... there is no need to try to look worse!

I tried the website for her list--it's maxed out. Kinda funny because now even the people who are supposed to buy this stuff won't be able to see it.
Maybe they can pick up some Pampers at Walmart instead.
26. bigponie - August 29, 2006 8:52 AM
why hasn't she been thrown inside an asylum yet, those facial expressions are that of a disturbed infantile.

24--It's not that we don't get that women --except for Fish Stick Paltrow -- get bigger when they're pregnant, it's just that we don't run around in skimpy clothing with no bras in our third trimester after we've packed ourselves into a size 2 dress we wore when we were 20.

21. Thanks for that. I had no idea babies were so expensive - two thousand dollars for a baby changer? I thought Brit just used shop floors for that. Are they really registered as Britney Spears and 'K FED'? That's just sad, grow up, get a real name and a real job.
33. fernanda - August 29, 2006 9:26 AM
in the second picture, i can almost hear she saying "whaaaaa'? no more cheetos?"

37. The Devil's Prom Date - August 29, 2006 10:05 AM
My mom was the same way when she was pregnant and going through her "nesting" phase.
The day I was born she went right out and dug around in the dumpster behind a Friendly's. She pulled out half a banana split, a burlap potato sack, and some indutrial strength rubber bands. She put me in the bag, banded it tight, hucked me into the lake and drank what was left of the sundae.
Britney Spears and my mom are both frickin' saints!
38. biatcho - August 29, 2006 10:07 AM
This is just useless.
#16: Sorry you got totally bloaty when you were pregnant but don't get all pissy about it... and it's incredibly obnoxious for someone who just gave birth a YEAR ago to have ANOTHER baby shower. I am pretty sure that, judging by the size of that first thing she gave birth to, it grew out of everything it had when it was an infant. Why not reuse it instead of insisting that other people spend their money buying the same shit for this pig that they did a year ago? Just another typical poor white trash trying to be a rich princess.
39. jane's eyre - August 29, 2006 10:12 AM
It's the cuntry hick gone wild! Give a hick some money and they do things like putting a chandelier in a baby's room. I bet she's going to install a Hawaiian Punch fountain in the room too. This is the crazy shit that happens when redneck hillbillies get ahold of money.

You must know about being swollen and bloated from experience...note: you can't blame your being a big fat ass on pregancy for the rest of your life...put down the triple cheeseburger, slowly remove the milk shake straw from your mouth, step away from your computer, and take a nice long walk or something...you can even listen to Britney Spears if you want considering that you are such a HUUUUUGGGE fan of hers!

I fucking love how positively pathetic she looks in that picture holding the jeans up to her. It's like Sissy Spacek in "Carrie" when she has per prom dress on for the first time and thinks "I am pretty and not insane".
I can hear Britney now saying "I'll totally fit back into these once this thang is out of me... right? Kev? RIGHT???????????????????????? Fucking TELL ME I WILL FIT BACK INTO THESE FUCKING JEANS AS SOON AS I FUCKING GIVE FUCKING BIRTH. Take me to 7-11 NOW for a Slurpee & Cheetos before I kick your dick in. And buy me those jeans. FUCKING FUCK FUCK. I hate babies".
44. UNWASHEDMASSES - August 29, 2006 10:58 AM
I don't know if her drop in IQ is due to hormones, prior drug abuse, or living with K-Fag, but look how she mugs for the camera. Who does that? That little clip leaked of her waxing philosophic about time travel wasn't a one-time thing - she apparently acts like that all the time. You can't look at those pics and not make retard noises in your head. Look at pic #2, Durrrrrrr!

46. DancingQueen - August 29, 2006 11:09 AM
#16 & #24 - yeah, pregnant women do gain weight, we all know that. But a LOT of women use pregnancy as an excuse to eat whatever they want and once the have the kid they NEVER EVER get their bodies back. They totally use the pregnancy as a crutch of WHY they can't lose weight. #41 is right on the money with that issue. Get off the couch and stop shoving food down your throat! I had two kids in 22 months and only gained 25 lbs. with each kid. And then when it was okay to work out again I went back to it and was back to my pre-pregnancy weight within 6 months. It CAN be done but a lot of people are just plain lazy and take the easy road. I.E. - Britney's road.

Jeez, I just took a gander at the registry. Will someone please tell me why the hell she needs a stroller? Everyone knows she won't use it and will try to balance both kids on each hip while wearing high heels and pants that are too long!

51. Gigi - August 29, 2006 11:57 AM
"The rules have changed. You can have a shower and celebrate every baby now."
Nice wording, Schumi, but still transparent. Just because people engage in tacky behavior doesn't mean that the "rules" have changed. She isn't "celebrating" each baby....she's asking for free stuff.
Baby showers are held so that new mothers can accquire needed items for the baby. The expectation being that those items will be maintained for the next child. However, I suppose it is tricky when one has babies so close together, and Baby 1 has yet to out-grow the bassinet. Sibs can't share everything.

Britney Spears has loads of (undeserved) cash, WTF is she shaking down all her "friends" and relatives for more baby crap? Her husband has a fucking tank full of sharks, for the love of cheese. Everyone should print out the "registry" list, then take it to her house and force her to eat it, over and over again. Who made the rule that everyone you know has to subsidize every pregnancy, especially if you can already buy any goddamn thing you want? New clothes for the new kid I can understand, but a stroller? Can't she buy her own goddamn stroller, which, as observed above, she probably won't get much use out of anyway? She'll just sling the kid over her arm and use the stroller to hold her Big Gulp and bags of Cheetos. Damn. What a no-class-havin' hayseed.
55. schumi - August 29, 2006 12:34 PM
I would hardly call it "tacky" behavior. That's like saying just because you have been divorced you are not allowed to have a second wedding and a second registry. Did I have subsequent showers? No. I didn't want to but I know many who did and it makes no difference to me. I don't care what the etiquette manual of 1955 says. Alot is changing.
As for the swelling, not all of us can gain 22 lbs with each baby. Mine were 15 months apart and I gained nearly 40 with both. My youngest is seven months and all of my weight is basically gone. Was I a lazy ass while pg? No, it's just what my body wanted to do and my ring barely wanted to fit my pinky. ;)
I wish we were all supermodels but we're not. Or at least I wish I was, maybe not everyone. :p

Did she actually use matte black paint on her hair, or what? That is just inexcusable. She may be pregnant and still-fat from the last one, but at the very least she could keep her hair, face and nails looking nice if she insists on getting her photo taken all the time. Grrr.

62. LL - August 29, 2006 3:08 PM
#55: I have to respectfully disagree. I wasn't around in 1955, thankfully, but if it was considered poor form to solicit for gifts then, I can't see how the passage of 51 years has made it any more polite to basically make out a list of stuff for people to purchase for you, as if they owe you something for reproducing (a second time) and you want to make sure they don't buy you something you might not want. "Register" is another name for "begging." When poor people beg on the street, people write cranky letters to the editor and bitch that the cops are letting the homeless harrass them at Starbucks. But when wealthy people make out lists of stuff for the rest of us to buy them, sorry, I reserve the right to view that as greedy. Actually, begging on the street is more honorable by comparison. I'd rather give a homeless guy a fiver to buy booze than squander one penny on Britney Spears, who has enough money to buy her own crap. But that's just me. That's how I roll. Good thing for Britney she and I aren't exactly homegirls*, but if we were, she would never have gone on with Matt Lauer looking like that.
* I know this word is probably past tired; you'll have to excuse me, I'm a white chick. And no longer a teenager.
63. InstantAsshat-AddFame - August 29, 2006 3:29 PM
There she goes, lifting her skirt again, like it's either too long and she might trip, or maybe people want to see more of her legs.
The messy hair I can handle, as well as the ugly shoes. But the stained dress? Jesus. Whoever took those pictures is NOT her friend.

Oh my God, the girl is obviously retarded...Did it not occur to her to actually look in the mirror before she walked out the door? How could she not notice the stain on her dress.....I don't even want to know what that is btw......Britney, I'm sure you or your friends probably read these pages....Do yourself a favor & clean up your act...Go to Louisiana & give birth & just get the hell out of Hollyweird for God's sake!

Oh my god...I can hear the seams ripping and the leather groaning from here.
I don'r think she's preggers, so much as she's going to just explode and spray toxic goo on all of us.
And what the HELL are those shoes? They barely fit her stank piggy hooves. And why is she wearing heels while preggers? I'd hate to be the guy who has to mash those rank things into those size 4 shoes.
I'm gonna go vomit now.
74. beifiori - August 30, 2006 3:37 AM
I'm actually kinda sorta starting to feel sorry for britney, but at the same time, i'm also wondering what the heck that is on her dress! oh well...she's young, and it looks like she's enjoying life. if she wants to act goofy, well, i guess that makes her human, since we all do from time to time. i'm not sure why she's getting knocked for registering or for registering for expensive gifts since all of the stars do it, heck, even us regular folks do it. if she's expecting a girl, then it would seem feasible that she would have a second shower since she has all boy stuff, but at the same time, it would also be thoughtful is she waited and let friends plan it instead of her doing it. but, she's young, hopefully she'll learn as she ages. finally, for all you people calling her fat, she's pregnant for God's sake. let's see how slender you are when you're pregnant...and on top of that, when she wasn't pregnant, she was a normal sized female. why do people always want to knock someone if they aren't rail thin? that's so shallow...

78. dmarie - August 30, 2006 8:16 AM
Black hair and red lipstick do nothing for her complexion. I'm pretty sure she dyed her eyebrows too which is a big no-no.
Regardless of being pregnant, you can still look decent. Her hair is almost always a stringy mess, her clothes are not maternity clothes and most of them are stained with various food-droppings. I reserve the right to make fun of this sloppy bitch because she has a bazillion dollars and looks like a piece of shit.
79. Don'tPanic - August 30, 2006 8:40 AM

80. bethiecow - August 30, 2006 8:45 AM
The stain looks like mustard baby poop.
As for second baby showers, I have to agree that it's tacky in most cases. I got rid of everything since I thought I was done having kids, and here I am knocked up again. So now I'm scraping and saving and buying stuff from eBay and yard sales. I refuse to ask for more stuff from people, just because I screwed up and gave everything away before getting pregnant again.
81. SPICY12 - August 30, 2006 10:40 AM
I HAVE NEVER EVER POSTED A COMMENT ON ANYTHING BUT I FEEL COMPELLED TO DO SO IN THIS CASE.ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS, WTF HAPPENED TO BRITNEY SPEARS!!!! I'VE NEVER BEEN A "FAN" BUT DAMN!! IT LOOKS LIKE HER HAIR WAS DONE AT HOME WITH A BOX OF LOREAL DIE FROM WALGREENS. SHE NEEDS TO DUMP HER LOSER HUSBAND AND GET BACK ON TRACK. POOR GIRL
82. LL - August 30, 2006 1:57 PM
See, all the cool people agree with me.
Don't have anything against Britney, I'm just opposed to greediness/delusions of entitlement in general. I just think that when you're rich beyond most people's wildest dreams, you shouldn't be expecting other people to shell out for gifts for you. If people want to give out of the goodness of their hearts, cool, but "registering" for gifts just says, "I'm knocked up again, give me stuff." It's offputting, especially from a multimillionaire. Sorry, but one of the downsides of being fabulously wealthy should be that people don't feel obligated to buy stuff for you.
Even if it isn't Britney's real registry, the point still stands. Registering for gifts is tacky. Just because everyone does it and stores make it easy (of course they want to make it easy to sell more stuff) doesn't mean it's OK. Websites make it easy for pervs to download child porn. Does that make it right?
K, lecture over. Return to your regular programming. .
