MONDAY, JANUARY 21 Ahem. You there. YES, YOU. The American
Psychoanalytic Association has made a request: STOP PSYCHOANALYZING
BRITNEY SPEARS!
Apparently the nation’s psychology community has
banded together, and no longer thinks it’s okay for the rest of us to
make judgments in regards to Britney’s sanity. Sooooo…
when Brit bashes an SUV with an umbrella, shaves her head, walks around
nude in a Betsey Johnson shop, or holds her son hostage for hours in
the bathroom of her mansion, we’re supposed to say… what? “That
Britney Spears certainly is a high-spirited one, isn’t she? And, oh!
So very SANE
!” Anyway, we’ve somehow wounded the fragile psyches of
these psychoanalysts, and here’s our formal cease and desist: “I’ve
been very upset by this,” said overly sensitive Chicago
psychoanalyst Mark Smaller. “The idea of making a
diagnosis
of someone they’ve never met is completely
inappropriate
, and it gives mental health professionals a bad
name.” (Hmmm… this guy sounds a bit bipolar to us… with maybe a
smidge of Napoleon complex?) MEANWHILE… Well, let’s
give this “psychological non-judgment” thing a try, shall we? According
to Us Magazine, a “scantily clad” Britney Spears showed
up at a Beverly Hills elementary school, saying she was there to
pick up someone else’s kids. Spears allegedly parked her car
outside the school a few minutes before classes let out, “smoking
cigarettes” and “talking to herself.” A witness says Brit was
“rambling and confused” (That’s NOT a medical diagnosis!), and
couldn’t remember if the children she was supposed to pick up were
hers, or those belonging to her new attorney. (She’s not allowed to see
her kids, and she doesn’t have a new attorney. BUT, HEY! THAT DOESN’T
MEAN SHE’S CRAZY. In fact, if you’re a psychoanalyst, maybe Britney
should pick up your kids, okay?)

TUESDAY, JANUARY 22 Actor Heath Ledger was found
dead in his apartment today—and since there’s no credible
information as of this point regarding the cause of his death, let us
be the first media outlet to say: “We refuse to speculate on Ledger’s
demise until presented with actual facts.” (Ouch! That really
hurt.) MEANWHILE… On such a depressing day as this,
thank god for speculative Hollywood pregnancies! Star magazine is reporting that genetically engineered power couple
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are not only preggers, but
preggers with TWINS! And just think, only a few years ago clones
couldn’t even have babies. Oh, science—what will you think of next? MEANWHILE… Not to be outdone by
the Star, the latest National Enquirer is claiming that
brainwashed Scientology slave Katie Holmes has also been knocked
up—by someone other than Tom Cruise! (Would that
make it the second time? JUST ASKING!) The tab speculates Katie’s eggs
have been tainted by the un-Scientological sperm of former boyfriend
Chris Klein—which we all know to be complete horse hockey.
Nor are we saying the child could be Tom’s, whose testicles have
been bronzed
and hang in the Church of Scientology’s grand temple.
Therefore, if Katie Holmes is pregnant, there can be only one
possible explanation. “Emperor Klaktu of Rigel VII does not kiss
and tell,” said the intergalactic dictator, suppressing a sly grin.
“But do not be surprised if the latest Cruise has telepathic powers, a
retractable appendage, and a penchant for Thalagarian eel stew.”

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23 Remember last week (as well as the week
prior) when we reported that Britney Spears has missed
numerous court depositions
, which if she attended, could help her
regain custody of her children? Well, she actually ALMOST made
it
this week! Last week, she touched the front steps of the
courthouse, before panicking and dashing back to her car. Today, she
actually made it up the stairs, into the building, and through the
metal detectors
! You could almost hear the paparazzi chanting, “We
think you can… we think you can…” and even WE felt like she was
going to make it! Until she didn’t. But she did very nearly make
it to the deposition room this time, before fleeing out the basement
door and speeding off in her car. Plus, she didn’t run over anyone, and
wasn’t nude—which is improvement, yes? Baby steps, people, baby
steps.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 24 In political news, Republican Fred
Thompson
has dropped out of the race to become president.
“Fred who?” “The guy who was on Law & Order.” “Ohh… I
thought that was Sam Waterston.” Exactly.
MEANWHILE… Democratic hopeful Hillary “My Mouth
Looks Like the Pinched Anus of a Cat” Clinton
has decided to call a
truce with Barack “Stacked and He’s Packed, Especially in the
Back” Obama
. Since being a snippy cow isn’t landing her the votes
she expected, Hillary is trying a different tactic, claiming, “We’re
all going to, on both sides I think, try to bring this debate and this
campaign back to the issues that are important.” That’s fine by us, but
if Hillary’s smart, she’ll tell HER street team to stop covering up the
Obama fliers left by OUR street team! If she wants a war? Oh, WE’LL
GIVE HER A WAR.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 25 The UK’s Sun has scored a shocking
interview—one from William Spears, Britney’s uncle!
According to the tabloid, Ol’ Uncle Willie reports that Britney
“started drinking when she was a 13-year-old Mickey Mouse Club presenter and dabbled with drugs from the age of 14.” “She has tried
just about everything,” Big Willie gushed to the Sun.
“Cocaine, crystal meth, ecstasy.” Wow. Thanks for
the breaking news, you creepy backwoods hick.
MEANWHILE… Oblivious to her hillbilly relative’s
interview, Britney now seems intent on making things inconvenient for
our beloved George Clooney. In a recent interview for
Newsweek, George revealed, “I just found out that I must live
300 or 400 yards from Britney Spears. And I found out ’cause I came
home at 10 one night and there’s all these helicopters over my
house with these lights. I’d gone upstairs, and I come out and I’m in a
robe. All of the sudden I see all this shit going on… So now I
have to move
.” Say, George, we know a place you can stay for a few
nights. You can leave the robe at home! (Kip, here’s the credit
card. Go try out that Motel 6 in Troutdale.)

SATURDAY, JANUARY 26 Have we mentioned we love Barack
Obama
? Well, we’ve got some good news and some bad news. Good news
first! Today Obama won the South Carolina primary, handily trouncing
Hillary Clinton and earning more votes than John McCain and Mike Huckabee combined. Hooray! (Our street team is SO
awesome!) Okay. Now for the bad news—deep breaths, everyone. In a
recent interview with Christianity Today (uh-oh), Obama said
(brace yourselves, dear readers!), “I believe in the redemptive
death and resurrection of Christ
.” What does that sentence mean, in
non-crazy fairy tale talk? “I realize it is impossible for anyone who
is not a Christian to be elected as president of the United States. I
believe in the power of Jesus and his Passion-loving followers
to enable me to achieve that goal.” Well… he’s still better than
Hillary. MEANWHILE… Back off, Scarlett
Johansson
! “I am engaged… to Barack Obama,” the skanky hussy lied
in an interview this week. “My heart belongs to Barack.” Scarlett,
we’re pretty sure you’re trying to make a “joke,” but be warned: We
will totes cut that pretty face.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 27 In an obvious and desperate attempt to
disengage from a truly spectacular celebrity train wreck, today
Britney Spears’ right breast briefly jumped out of her dress
while she was rehearsing some dance moves. Sadly, this will undoubtedly
make things even worse in George Clooney’s neighborhood. So,
George… can we expect you around seven? The door will be
unlocked.
