Thanks to our affiliate Britney.cl for the pic!

Here’s the new layout, I hope you all like it!  There hasn’t been much Britney news lately but it’s nice to give the site a bit of an update once in a while.

Thanks (again) to Marius for making it, I’m really pleased with how it turned out!  Leave a comment to say what you think…

Casey Aldridge has been close to the Spears family, as both a hometown boy dating youngest daughter Jamie Lynn and as a buffer standing between the teenage actress and the pressures of Hollywood.

“He took amazing care of Jamie Lynn,” a source close to the family tells PEOPLE. “Anything ever went wrong, he always comforted her. He took care of her.”

Jamie Lynn and her mother say that Aldridge is the father of the 16-year-old Zoey 101 star’s baby.

Aldridge, who is believed to be 18 or 19, has stayed largely out of the Hollywood spotlight, only occasionally accompanying Jamie Lynn to Hollywood events.

He grew up in Liberty, Miss., about 30 miles from the Spears family home base in Kentwood, La., and played high school baseball and football (he’s listed in a sports directory as a lean 6′1″, 165 lbs).

Recently, he has lived in Southern California and was a fixture at the condo where Jamie Lynn stayed with her mother, Lynne, while filming the Nickelodeon series Zoey 101. Aldridge drove her to the Valencia set, near Los Angeles, every day and stayed there while she worked, impressing Lynne and Jamie Lynn’s father, Jamie.

“Jaime talks about how he really likes Casey because he’s a great guy,” the Spears family source says. “Lynne really likes him, too. He’s a good kid, cares a lot about Jamie Lynn. They both adore Casey.”

The pregnancy, a source close to Aldridge says, was a surprise.

“I’m sure it was a shock to him,” the source says. “He has all sorts of plans for his future. He wants to start his own business, maybe get a degree and make something of himself.”

The source says that Aldridge will take responsibility for his actions.

“He’s a stand-up guy, and he will take care of the baby,” the source says. “He is not the type to let her deal with it on her own. He will be there in any way he can. … I know a baby wasn’t in his plans for right now, but he’ll do what he has to do, and he’ll be a good father. He really will.”

Why is everyone reporting he’s 19? As far as I know, he’s only 17, a year older than her.

Lynne Spears’s book about raising her famous daughters Britney and Jamie Lynn has been put on hold, the publisher confirms to PEOPLE.

“The book is delayed indefinitely. It’s delayed, not cancelled,” says a spokeswoman for Thomas Nelson, which publishes inspirational books and Bibles.

It had been scheduled for a spring 2008 release and was put on hold last week, says the rep. On Tuesday, news hit that 16-year-old Jamie Lynn is pregnant with her boyfriend’s child.

Publishers’ Weekly described the book as “Lynne Spears’s personal story of raising high-profile children while coming from a low-profile Louisiana community.”

The publisher declined to comment on whether the focus of the book would change in light of the pregnancy announcement.

“We are standing behind Lynn at this time and understand that she needs time with her family – we support that,” says the spokeswoman.

Jamie Lynn Spears, the 16-year-old “Zoey 101″ star and sister of Britney, tells OK! magazine that she’s pregnant and that the father is her longtime boyfriend, Casey Aldridge.

“It was a shock for both of us, so unexpected,” she says. “I was in complete and total shock and so was he.”

Spears is 12 weeks along (3 months) and initially kept the news to herself when she learned of the pregnancy from an at-home test and subsequent doctor visit, she told the celebrity magazine, which hits stands in New York on Wednesday and the rest of the country by Friday.

“As soon as I found out for sure from the doctor, I took two weeks to myself where I didn’t tell anybody,” she says. “Only one of my friends knew because I needed to work out what I would do for myself before I let anyone’s opinion affect my decision. Then I told my parents and my friends. I was scared, but I had to do what was right for me.”

Spears broke the news to her mother, Lynne, just before Thanksgiving, the magazine says.

“She was very upset because it wasn’t what she expected at all,” Spears says. “A week after, she had time to cope with it and became very supportive.”

Lynne Spears, already grandmother to Britney’s young sons, says: “I didn’t believe it because Jamie Lynn’s always been so conscientious. She’s never late for her curfew. I was in shock. I mean, this is my 16-year-old baby.”

She says her actress daughter, the telegenic heroine of the popular Nickelodeon series “Zoey 101,” has known Aldridge for years and began dating him in high school.

Jamie Lynn plans to raise the baby in her home state of Louisiana - “so it can have a normal family life.”

The third season of “Zoey 101″ wraps up Jan. 4.

“I haven’t spoken to (Nickelodeon) personally, but they have always been so great to me over the past years and have given me so many opportunities.”

What message does she want to send to other teens about premarital sex?

“I definitely don’t think it’s something you should do; it’s better to wait,” she says. “But I can’t be judgmental because it’s a position I put myself in.”

Nickelodeon, the company that produces and airs Jamie Lynn’s hit kids show “Zoey 101″ has released a statement regarding her shock pregnancy:

“We respect Jamie Lynn’s decision to take responsibility in this sensitive and personal situation. We know this is a very difficult time for her and her family, and our primary concern right now is for Jamie Lynn’s well being.”

Jamie Lynn Spears, 16, has confirmed to OK! Magazine that she is pregnant. Oh. My. God.

A source tells us the interview, which hits stands tomorrow, is six pages and is on the record with Jamie Lynn and her mother. She tells the mag that the father is Casey Aldridge, who she has been dating for some time and first met at church. Brit’s younger sister, star of Nick’s “Zoey 101,” says she’s keeping the baby.

Sources tell us that she has not yet told her older sister. Well, she knows now.

There’s a reason there haven’t been any updates for a few days, and it’s not that I’m lazy!  There has been a surprising lack of anything in the Britney world this weekend.  Britney went shopping for baby clothes and she dyed her hair blonde again this week… that’s about it!

Hopefully there’ll be some more (positive) news to report this week.

Britney (sort of) spoke to Ryan Seacrest on KIIS FM this morning, she said she won’t do any promotion for the album.  She didn’t really say much and basically let her friends do the talking.

Download Part 1 and Part 2. 

Britney spoke to paparazzi photo agency X17 on Friday night, saying she liked their company but disliked gossip blog TMZ.

She then proceeded to hit one of the X17 cars with her own, appologising profusely and asking “are you going to sue me?”.

One of the photographers asks her when her new album will be out and she simply replies “Christmas”.  Does she know it’s actually out in 2 weeks?

Check out the video here. 

Only three weeks after Alli Sims, cousin, constant companion and best friend to beleaguered pop star Britney Spears, moved out of her own L.A. apartment to take up residence with the Toxic singer, OK! has learned she’s telling friends she’s had enough and is packing her stuff up.

“I can’t take it anymore,” the 21-year-old Alli has told friends regarding her high-pressure living situation, which includes chauferring Britney around and doing her shopping for her, all while being hounded by photographers.

But when OK! caught up with Alli to ask her why she’s calling in the moving trucks, she had a different story to tell. “My move wasn’t sudden,” Brit’s cousin claims exclusively to OK!, “I was just doing it slowly; I’ve had my own apartment all along.”

What Alli’s not saying is that this new apartment is in the very same Marina del Rey condo building where Brit’s mom Lynne Spears also happens to live. Coincidence? Not likely.

Meanwhile, the former Mrs. Kevin Federline has holed up at the posh Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills. Perhaps now that she finally has a California driver’s license, she no longer needs her best pal.

Britney asked a paparazzo to go into the bathroom with her to help clear a way through all the mass of photographers waiting outside! It’s a hectic scene, but Britney remains in a good mood throughout!

ET has several reliable sources that the FBI and LAPD are investigating legitimate leads on a contract hit on KEVIN FEDERLINE’s life.

Multiple sources tell ET that the FBI made attempts to contact Federline to inform him of the potential danger.

Sources within the FBI tell ET that this is the bureau’s standard operating procedure when someone’s life is threatened.

ET has been working this story for the past two months. When contacted, the FBI told us that the bureau cannot confirm or deny an investigation.

This is what the hostess of the VMAs said after Britney’s performance; it is reportedly the reason why Britney was so shaky during her performance:

“This is so exciting, wasn’t that incredible? Miss Britney Spears everyone. She is amazing, I mean she is 25 years old and has already accomplished everything she is going to accomplish in her life. It’s mind blowing, and she’s so grown up. She’s a mother, you know it’s crazy to think that just a few years ago on this very show she was this like sweet innocent little girl in slutty clothes riding around with a python. Thats not nice calling Madonna a python. But have you seen Britney’s kids? Oh my god. They are the most adorable mistakes you have ever seen. They are so cute. There as cute as the hairless vagina they came out of. “

What a bitch.

Britney reportedly commented on her performance of “Gimme More” after the show last night.

According to JustJared.com, When asked by USA Today how she felt her performance went, Britney replied, “Good, thank you.”

Despite Britney’s family feud, Bryan Spears was in Las Vegas to support his sister last night.

The two were seen together arriving back at Britney’s hotel (see pic in the previous post), both of them looked upset about something…
