Aww, Brit, what’s wrong? Can’t take a joke??? Britney Spears was apparantly upset by a skit that was directed towards her soon-to-be ex-husband Kevin Federline last night at the 2006 American Music Awards. Ironically, right after the little skit, she was slated to present the award for Favorite Soul/R&B Female Artist (won by Mary J Blige) and kept her composure (even though she was pretty hot at the situation). In the skit, AMA host Jimmy Kimmel packed a fake K-Fed into a box and threw him into the ocean, calling the wannabe hip-hop artist “the world’s first ever no-hit wonder.” I thought it was pretty funny, LOL.

“Britney was blindsided and upset,” says a source familiar with the situation. “Some (of Spears’s associates) were with her, and they were pissed. They asked that it not be shown on the (West Coast) feed.” But, the skit was indeed broadcast on the West Coast. A rep at Jive Records did not return calls. Federline’s rep declined to comment. Jimmy Kimmel said in a statement released Wednesday: “I knew they wouldn’t mind because I know they both have great senses of humor.” Spears filed for divorce from Federline earlier this month after two years of marriage. Both Spears and Federline have asked for sole custody of their two sons, Sean Preston, 1, and Jayden James.

Rosie O’Donnell thinks Kelly Rippa is a homophobe for telling Clay Aiken that it’s a “no no” to put his hands in her face. It all went down on “Live with Regis & Kelly.” Clay was filling in for Regis, and he and Kelly were interviewing Emmitt Smith and Cheryl Burke (winners of the latest Dancing with the Stars). Kelly seemed like she was “taking over” the interview (uhm, duh .. isn’t it HER show??) so Clay covered her mouth with his hands to shut her up. And she told him, “I don’t know where that hand’s been, honey!” in a joking manner. And that was that. Now, on The View, they were talking about the situation and Rosie O’Donnell said that she felt that what Kelly said was “homophobic” and “if it were Mario Lopez or any person that she didn’t question their sexuality, she wouldn’t have said that.” Oh, what-the-fuck-ever! I don’t care who you are … that’s NASTY puttin your hands on somebody’s mouth, and Rosie knows that. And if she doesn’t care about someone puttin their hands in her face, that’s her … to each his/her own. Clay Aiken didn’t take what Kelly said so seriously, and Rosie shouldn’t have either.

Okay, you know those “gyroscope” things … those series of cirlces that rotate around each other, and the center spins around, and around, and around, and around, and around? David Blaine - a professional magician and stuntman, has been doing crazy things since 1999, like, burying himself alive, being frozen, and drowning himself alive! This latest stunt involves the gyroscope mechanism mentioned above. Yesterday, Mr. Blaine strapped himself inside of this thing, and he has 2 days to free himself … while it spins the ENTIRE TIME at about 8 revolutions per minute! If he’s successful, he will lead 500 children from the Salvation Army on a $500 shopping spree sponsored by Target. Blaine said the stunt was particularly important since The Salvation Army had provided him with clothing while he was growing up. “This challenge is close to my heart,” Blaine said. For more information on this challenge, and all of his past challenges, check out his Wikipedia entry Here.

Will Smith, along with his wife, Jada Pinket Smith, refuses to send his two children to school to get a public education, claiming the system limits their education. Smith insists he didn’t learn his most valuable lessons in school and claims there are no limits to what he can teach Jaden, eight; Willo, six; and his 14-year-old son Trey, from his marriage to Sheree Smith.

He says, “The date of the Boston Tea Party does not matter. I know how to learn anything I want to learn. I absolutely know that I could learn how to fly the space shuttle because someone else knows how to fly it, and they put it in a book. Give me the book, and I do not need somebody to stand up in front of the class.”

In my opinion, public schooling is the best education out there. You’re put around people of all different races, religions, opinions, etc., and it prepares you for the real world. When you’re home-schooled, you only see what happens in your own home, and when you’re thrust into the real world when you come of age, you’re completely lost. You should think 2wice about only home-schooling your kids, Will.

I’m not buying this apology at all. What he said made him look like an idiot, and in my opinion, he’s only apologizing for ruining his own image, because if what happened hadn’t been recorded … he probably wouldn’t have even given a shit! He’s not apologizing for what he said. You can’t apologize for something like that. What he said has been in his mind for a long time … it just came out full fledge that night. It’s like a person who gets drunk and tells people how the REALLY feel about them. There WAS a video on youtube, but it was removed because it violated CBS’ copyright. If I find another one, I’ll post it so you guys can see. But I STILL think he needs his racist ass kicked. Any volunteers???

Edit: Most of the internet video streaming sites aren’t allowed to have the interview online, but CBS has an excerpt of the video in text, and in Windows Media. Click Here to check it out.

This is a little bit of what was said in the interview:

Letterman: “Why don’t you explain exactly what happened for the folks who may not know.”

Richards: “I lost my temper on stage. I was at a comedy club trying to do my act and I got heckled and I took it badly and went into a rage and said some pretty nasty things to some Afro-Americans, a lot of trash talk…”

Letterman: “And you were actually being heckled or were they just talking and disturbing the act?”

Richards: “That was going on too.”

….

Later in the interview, Letterman asked Richards if he would have responded to the heckler in a similar vein if he had been of a different race.

“It may have happened,” said Richards. “I’m a performer. I push the envelope. I work in a very uncontrolled manner on stage. I do a lot of free association — it’s spontaneous, I go into character. I don’t know. In view of the situation and the act going the way it was going, I don’t know. The rage did go all over the place - it went to everybody in the room.”

Richards seemed baffled by his own reaction on stage.

“I’m not a racist, that’s what’s so insane about this,” he said.

What the hell is an “Afro-American” … and why does that audience think this is so funny?

   

Okay, nothing’s worse than dumping Kevin Federline and making a new friendship with Paris Hilton. Okay, there are far worse things that could happen to an individual, but in this case … things like this just make you want to shake your head and wonder “what the hell is going on?” Above are a few candid photographs of Britney Spears hanging out with … “her.” See for yourselves…
