Sep 10 2008Lynne Spears: 'I'd do it all over again'
In an interview with People about her new book Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World, Lynne Spears seems to be oblivious to the fact that Britney is a burden of the state and can't see her kids without a SWAT team handy. How can I tell? She'd do this whole trainwreck again in a heartbeat:
"I think you have to let them follow their dreams," she says in a new interview with PEOPLE. "I think it would be worse in the end if you didn't."
But she does express regrets about not listening to her "gut" at times: "Was I the perfect mom? No."
Fortunately, one person thinks Lynne is the perfect mom: Her teenage daughter Jamie Lynn. You know, the one who had a baby at 17 to a redneck:
She says Britney and Bryan have yet to read it, but "Jamie Lynn loved the book. I started to cry because I told her, 'I wanted so much for you to like it.' And she got up and kissed me on the cheek and said, 'Mama, thank you so much.'"
JAMIE LYNN: Mama, did y'all mean it when you said you gonna make a meal-yen dollahs off this here book?
LYNNE: I did, princess.
JAMIE LYNN: *runs off* Whoopee! I'm gonna have anotha bay-bee!
LYNNE: No, wait, Jamie Lynn. Don't -
JAMIE LYNN: *hollers from her room* Too late!

Lynne, I could not agree more. Let your kids have the kids. Much easier on the figure. That's how I stay so MILF.

Unlike her mom, Brit listened to her gut all the time.
Unfortunately for the nutrition-minded, her gut kept saying "Doritos Bitch !"

I like it when people speak their minds. I have just written a short piece about this girls and would like your comments.
I think this girl need help - she's been crying out for it for too long!

Lynn is an unfit mother to pimp out her kids like this. How could she tell personal things like this to the media to get more money??? And then she titles her book like it's a fight about breast cancer or something, with a picture of her looking off in the distance.... People are only going to buy this book for one reason: To find out more shit about Britney Spears, not to learn how to be a parent in a tabloid world. You know, I actually feel sorry for Britney Spears. No wonder her kids got taken away. Lynn should have had hers taken away about fifteen years ago. Stupid bitch. What does she want??????

Funny how everyone feels as if Lynn Spears is out of line here.. Maybe on many levals she is! However, all of us who read and (COMMENT)on all of this, just might be part of the reason why she crossed that line......

HAHAHA. If you look at the ground in the picture it looks like this is one of those days Brit didn't wear panties.

Is it just me or does anyone else not give a shit what the parents of celebrities have to say? She may as well have titled the book, "Britney Spears Came Out of My Uterus" because that is the big takeaway here.
Is there any doubt that the "book" will contain all kinds of bitching and whining about how awful the media (the media that helped sell Britney as a sex symbol while she was still jailbait) is to "hound" Britney and tell us things that the Spears family would have rather kept private. I hate the tabloid douchebags too, but you don't get to use them to propel you to fame and then demand that they respect your privacy when you start doing shit like showing your vag all over town, driving into buildings and barfing in public places in full view of cameras.
The entire Spears family (with the exception of the father, maybe) is a waste of precious resources like water and air.
