After a long time I searched for news related to Britney Spears and I found that I really was out of date in the world of music and mainly Britney Spears. This is going to be a big news for Britney fans as a new song by her has now appeared on the internet called “Kill the Lights” from the album”Circus”. In an interview Britney stated that it is her favorite song on the album. The song is about her relationship with the paparazzi and although pretty much nothing alike, the meaning of the song is kind of like “Piece of Me” part 2. I personally like the lyrics in this song as most of the times.

With all the news headlines and her story and her problems in her private life, yet she has came out with an album to her precious fans. I have embedded the video that I found over YouTube below. I hope you guys enjoy the video as much as I did.

Whenever people talk about superstars and mainly female singing superstar, I am sure Madonna comes at the top list. She is just phenomenal singer and an actress as well. There are a lot of records she broke and one of them also includes being in the Guinness Book of World Records as the most successful female singer of 2000. She has also sold over 120 million albums. Madonna also has hit the number one spot a dozen times and hit the top 10 list over 3 dozen times. Madonna has been an idol of a lot of women as she was the first to do a lot of many things including managing her own music and image as well. She was too determined and she became a superstar so fast that she sometimes doesn’t get credit for her talent. She just manipulated the media and she just made her own image by recreating herself a number of times. She doesn’t seem to be slowing down at this age as well.

Music is often considered as one of the best medicine to relieve loneliness and share pleasure amongst people. I still remember my childhood when I used to listen to the oldies on the AM radio and now the technology has so much advanced that we have our own iTunes and other music collections and furthermore we can listen to a lot of free music through FM radio. Now even the FM radio has much more advanced into digital stations. We can find a lot of new country music stations around the world.

The new buzz today that I found is about HD Radio, where HD means High Definition. I went through HDRadio.com and find out the whole different meaning of HD Radio defined there. With HD Radio you can have all free music, crystal-clear sound, and access to more new stations with no monthly cost. For example, if you are in Florida, you can go through the website and find a lot of Florida High Definition Radio stations through their search engines. You can simply select your state from the pull-down menu to find the stations in your market that are on-the-air with HD Radio technology and those stations that will soon be up and running with their additional HD2 channels. Isn’t it cool or what?

Furthermore, I also was able to go through their Polk Audio I-sonic ES2 where you will be able to tag your favorite song playing on your FM and then you can simply buy the same song directly from the Apple® iTunes Music Store. These are only few things that I found in their website, I am sure if you visit it and go through it, you will find more about a totally different High Definition Radio Stations around your area.

While I read this news about Britney Spears making $25,000 charitable donation and knowing that she cried on watching TV show “Idol Gives Back” and makes the donation, I just was thinking may be she is on a comeback and now she might be getting well. But I find Britney Spears very unpredictable. No one ever knows what her next move is. Sometimes I find her freaky and weird and sometimes she just has a heart of gold. For now I am just glad that she is recovering. Well the news today is basically of her giving charitable donation but in order to that, she need her father’s permission as the ruling of court has make her father co-conservator of her estate till July 1.

Read the rest of the news that I collected over the internet below:

Britney Spears made a $25,000 charitable donation last night after watching TV show ‘Idol Gives Back’, which portrayed African children suffering from malaria.

The singer reportedly googled the disease after watching the show in tears and decided to make the donation with her credit card.

Under the ruling of the court, however, Spears had to seek permission from her father Jamie Spears, who is co-conservator of her estate until July 1, reports Life And Style.

Meanwhile, the singer will not have a recurring role on ‘How I Met Your Mother’, despite rumours to the contrary.

She made a guest appearance on the show on March 24, but actor Neil Patrick Harris says she will not return.

“She’s not an actress,” he told MTV.com. “She played a role for a week, and did a really nice job, but the workload involved with doing memorisation and the purging of comedy over and over is really, really hard. I mean, it takes a strong skill set to do that every week.”

More news about Britney Spears and more job offers. I didn’t believe at first that PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) has actually offered Britney Spears a job as a receptionist. I thought there must be a twist and there must be a catch in this story. Well I was right. PETA had noticed that Britney had worn some of the fur and bought animals from pet stores so they want to make sure that she could know a little from the inside why PETA are so concerned about the issues like fur and homeless dogs and cats. They further have told that after seeing the work of Britney Spears as a receptionist in the movie How I Met Your Mother, they are impressed and now they are offering her the job. They also further claimed that the job is not an “April Fool’s Day joke” but the job is real.

Below is the news that I collected over the internet.

After playing a secretary in a US sitcom, Britney Spears has been offered a job as a real-life receptionist from animal rights group People For The Ethical Treatment Of Animals (PETA).

The pop star made a cameo appearance on CBS’ comedy show ‘How I Met Your Mother’ and now PETA President Ingrid E. Newkirk has made a written job offer to the 26-year-old star.

PETA bosses, claim that their job offer is not an April Fool’s Day joke, but said that they are targeting Britney as she has earlier worn fur and bought animals from pet stores.

“After seeing your excellent performance on How I Met Your Mother, PETA would like to offer you a real job as a receptionist,” Contactmusic quoted Newkirk, as writing in the offer letter.

He added: “It could be for as little as an hour, and you would see – from the inside – why we are so concerned about issues like fur and homeless dogs and cats. As a ‘thank you’ for your willingness to learn and help, we would donate 1,000 dollars to a children’s charity.”

I read this story today about Britney Spears being eyed for Broadway role, and I was pretty much sure she would be happy about this. She has suffered a lot lately and hasn’t recovered so far. Her mind must be bedazzled right now and wandering around what is next. They say, “An empty mind is the devil’s workshop” and we surely wouldn’t want her to be lost. With this role ahead of her, she will surely be prepared for the challenges she would face and she will be ready in no time. Being engaged in these sorts of activity will not only make her earn more but make her mind refreshed. I am sure she will prove that this role will lead her away from her troubles. Best of luck from my side to her and may she succeed in this new role. :)

Below is the news that I collected over the internet.

Britney Spears the Broadway star? The pop singer, and recently TV guest actress, has been reportedly offered the lead female role in the West End production of “A Streetcar Named Desire.”

A source reveals, “Britney’s been on the list for this for some time but was considered too risky until recently. Her appearance in the American TV show ‘How I Met Your Mother’ changed all that. She had poised, timing and real flair.”

“We wanted her for Blanche because, even though she’s technically too young to play her, who else could embody this fallen Southern Belle so well?”

Spears, 26, recently gave boost to the said sitcom’s rating after she successfully played a dorky receptionist. Her performance was a hit among viewers and critics alike.

The source adds, “She’s living out the story, so to harness that on stage would be amazing for an audience to see – and cathartic for Britney, too.”

My last post about Jamie Lynn Spears was that she was alone and that she wasn’t getting enough care by her parents due to her sister being ill. Now I am totally confused. Today was visiting google news, and suddenly I saw this top news regarding Jamie Lynn Spears. The heading was, “Jamie Lynn Spears Is Engaged: Reports.” I thought may be it is just rumor but when I visited more reports about the news, I found out that numerous of the entertainment websites have published the story of them being pregnant. It was quite surprising her being engaged. I am yet confused if she is being engaged as she was getting depressed and feeling alone or if there is something other issues that she is getting engaged in this early age. I even don’t know if she is in that age where she can get legally engaged…

Below is the news that I collected over the internet.

Pregnant Jamie Lynn Spears and her boyfriend, Casey Aldridge, have apparently gotten engaged, according to several online reports.

Aldridge’s cousin, Tina Robinson, reportedly confirmed the news to UsMagazine.com.

“He proposed a few days ago, and she accepted,” Robinson reportedly said. Robinson told the site she hadn’t seen a ring and wasn’t certain whether they would marry before or after their baby is born.

Access Hollywood reported that a “source close to the Spears family” said that getting married “has been [Jamie Lynn's] goal,” and E! online reported that she had been seen in her hometown of Kentwood, Louisiana, wearing what appeared to be an engagement ring, but on the wrong hand. Access Hollywood’s source reportedly added that Jamie was “dead set [on getting married] from the beginning” and has gone “head to head” with her parents over the issue, the source added. “She’s been asking [her parents]” to marry him for some time, and he has repeatedly asked her parents.”

People.com reported that “a source” confirmed the engagement on Tuesday.

MTV News’ requests for comment from Spears’ reps had not been answered at press time.

The 16-year-old “Zoey 101″ star, who got her GED in February, caused considerable controversy with the announcement in December that she and Aldridge, 18, are expecting their first child, which is due this summer. (Head here for reactions from fans and celebrities, and people in her hometown.)

“It was a shock for both of us, so unexpected,” Spears told OK! magazine at the time. “I was in complete and total shock, and so was [Aldridge]. As soon as I found out for sure from the doctor, I took two weeks to myself where I didn’t tell anybody. 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.”

According to the interview, Jamie Lynn confirmed the pregnancy through a home test. She later paid a visit to the doctor, who corroborated the news. She said she revealed the news to her parents shortly before Thanksgiving.

I am just surprised how I didn’t get this news. This news was flashed out with the news I previously posted about Lutfi Agrees To Stay Away From Spears. The news was about Kevin Federline, Britney Spears’ ex-husband’s legal fees being paid by Spears herself. I don’t know much about legal activities. May be this is the reason behind my mouth being opened wide while reading this news. I was saying to myself, “How can this be true. A husband is fighting and winning and taking away their kids and now the wife has lost the kids as well as she has to pay for the legal fees?” For what? Losing her child or making the advocate of the husband rich? Well I still and not cleared if this legal act is fair for Spears. I wonder what more bad news are on the way for poor Britney.

Below is the news that I collected over the internet.

Los Angeles Court Commissioner Scott Gordon ruled Monday that Britney Spears would take care of ex-husband Kevin Federline’s legal fees in their child custody dispute, paying him $375,000.

It is somewhat ironic that pop singer Britney Spears should pay her former husband’s legal fees in their ongoing child custody dispute but Commissioner Scott Gordon ruled Monday that this is how things would go.

Mark Vincent Kaplan, Federline’s lead attorney, asked for nearly $500,000 last week but Gordon found that $375,000 was a more appropriate sum. He wrote that Britney’s actions had been one of the main causes of delays in the case, E! Online reports.

The singer’s attorney, Stacy Phillips, argued that Kaplan was over-charging and that Federline can afford to pay his own legal bills, as suggested by a recent $2,000 tip on a restaurant bill of $365.

The 26-year-old mother of two remains under the conservatorship of her father, Jamie Spears, until July 31.

As to other aspects of Britney’s life, her self-declared friend and manager, Sam Lutfi, agreed to stay away from her for another 30 days it was announced this weekend. His spokesperson confirmed the agreement, commenting that the two sides are “happy” with the decision.

“There is an agreement between Sam Lutfi and the conservatorship for the next 30 days,” Lutfi spokesman Michael Sands said Sunday, as quoted by the Associated Press. “Both parties are happy and will continue to work together to further resolve any issues that may have come up in the past.”

A judge officially approved the agreement at a hearing Monday, E! Online reports. Neither Lutfi nor Jamie Spears were present.

The restraining order against Lutfi was placed in late February and was to expire Monday, March 17. The restraining order can be extended to five years or even be made permanent.

Lutfi is currently forbidden from going within 250 yards of Britney and her home, as well as the homes of her family members. He is not allowed to contact her in any way.

The singer’s parents requested the restraining order accusing Lutfi of moving into Britney’s house, drugging her, cutting off the phone lines and basically attempting to control her life.

I didn’t know about this news of Sam Lutfi, a member of the singer’s entourage sometimes described in media reports as her manager, of giving a handful of pills to Britney Spears. Well according to the news I read this might definitely be the cause of Britney Spears to have psychotic hallucinations leading her to the hospital. If this is the case, I am sure Sam Lutfi will surely be in trouble. For now he has agreed to keep distance from Spears for another month. I hope no matter what is the reason for her hospitalization, I just wish her luck and hope she will be alright soon and back in the music field because that is where she should be remembered for eternity.

Below is the news that I collected over the internet.

Sam Lutfi reportedly has agreed to keep his distance from troubled U.S. pop star Britney Spears for another month.

Lutfi, a member of the singer’s entourage sometimes described in media reports as her manager, hasn’t been allowed to have any contact with the recording artist since last month.

A temporary restraining order keeping him away from Spears was set to expire Monday, however, Lutfi has agreed to keep his distance for another month and the pact between representatives for Lutfi and Spears’ family is expected to be approved by a Los Angeles court, People.com said.

Spears was hospitalized twice for psychiatric evaluation and treatment earlier this year.

Her father Jamie and another court-appointed co-conservator have been handling most of her affairs since then.

The singer’s mother Lynne filed court papers last month claiming Lutfi ground up a sleeping medication and an anti-psychotic drug prescribed to treat bipolar disorder, then fed them to Britney Spears, Usmagazine.com said.

Lutfi told the magazine he gave Britney Spears “a handful of pills” to help her sleep.

People.com said police are investigating Lynne Spears’ allegations.

With the admission of Britney Spears in the hospital she lost the opportunity of being a host of Scandinavian Style Mansion gala to be held in Los Angeles soon. Spears was initially asked to host it by the Danish businessman Claus Hjelmbak but he thought Spears should take care of her health first and I too agree with this. She is not herself these days. I wonder if Spears will ever get to know herself. If she keeps on like this and don’t take things under control. She might suffer a lot more. For the time being, I am just thinking if Spears would take this switch of Lohan as a host personally or not.

Below is the news that I collected over the internet.

Actress Lindsay Lohan is to replace Britney Spears as the host of a Scandinavian Style Mansion gala to be held in Los Angeles soon.

The Danish businessman Claus Hjelmbak had initially asked Spears to host, but retracted after she was admitted to the hospital, contactmusic.com reports.

He said: “I personally feel that the most important thing for her now is to focus on her health and get the help she needs and deserves.”

Lohan’s representative confirmed that she was approached to host the party, which promotes Scandinavian products. Spears had celebrated her 26th birthday at a Scandinavian Style Mansion event last December.
