Update: Britney Spears' May Not Actually Be Pregnant!
The Day The Crazy Text Messages Led All Of Us (i.e. In Touch Readers) Astray

This just in! In Touch's incontrovertible text message-related evidence attesting to Britney's pregnancy might, in fact, be totally made-up!

"A source close to Britney Spears' former producer (and ex) J.R. Rotem tells Usmagazine.com the text messages In Touch Weekly claims to have received are 'faked.'"

Even worse? Now JR has released a statement saying "There is absolutely no truth to this." Anyone else smell a libel suit? [Us]

Britney Spears Is So Pregnant That Even Her Fetus Is Tone Deaf
Blackberry Singing In The Dead Of Night...

Breaking: The confirmation of Britney's latest pregnancy rests entirely on a hastily written Blackberry text exchange between In Touch magazine and star-fucker turned rumored baby-daddy, JR Rotem. We imagine this is exactly how shit went down during the Valerie Plame leak. [Mollygood]

Quoted
In Light Of The Latest Britney Pregnancy Rumors, We Take A Nostalgic Look Back At JR Rotem (a.k.a. The Man Purporting To Be Her Baby-Daddy)
“Britney and I were in a relationship,” he says quietly. “We were dating for about two weeks but decided for both our careers that it wouldn’t be cool to have a romantic relationship. She was really emotional and distressed at the time.” Rotem says he doesn’t regret what happened, or his overnight notoriety; he knows it’s good for business. But whatever anyone thinks of him, he insists he always tries to do the right thing. “There are definitely times when I’m an arrogant, vain ­asshole. But the bigger part is sensitive, good–hearted. People who just see me in front of the paparazzi acting like a jackass have no clue who I am.” And with that, Rotem texts Paris to see where she’s gone off to.

–Excerpted from an interview with JR Rotem (Point of record: His name rhymes with "Scrotum") appearing in the July, 2007 issue of Blender magazine

Jiblets

• JR Rotem, the music producer Britney "dated" for approximately five minutes (pre-rehab) has decided to go the classy route and offer an unsolicited (and uncomfortably detailed) glimpse into their sex life. No wonder that guy's name rhymes with "scrotum."

• When Entourage's Jeremy Piven challenges pint-sized morning talk show host Kelly Ripa to a push-up contest, we think it's fair to say everybody loses. And by "everybody," we especially mean Jeremy Piven.

• ABC clears out GMA studios when overly zealous Sam Champion fan sends anthrax-y envelope instead of amateur sex tape like a normal person.

• For those of you who missed last night's Queerty bash at the Chelsea Hotel, all we can say is "You should be ashamed of yourselves!" Fortunately, however, there's a recap.
