This is from an interview Pharell Williams gave to E! Online concerning Britney's return to the VMAs:

"I don't think they realize how much power this girl has! I mean, to have people come down on her the way that they did on her last performance... she's kind of showed you her power. She's got power."

Britney's first lover speaks
Posted by Kevin on 05 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

Britney Spears’ first lover has come forward.

Reg Jones, now 30, has been revealed as the man who the ‘Gimme More’ singer lost her virginity to at the age of 14.

The troubled star’s mother Lynne outed him in her tell-all book ‘Through The Storm’ which claims the former high school American football star had sex with the singer when he was 17.

The jilted lover - who Britney dumped for ‘SexyBack’ singer Justin Timberlake - admits he still thinks of the pop star and keeps a picture of his ex wearing a black bra.

He is quoted by Britain’s Daily Star newspaper as saying: “We were madly in love and Britney was very passionate. I’d often stay over at her house and we’d fool around like any young couple.

“Although there was a couple of years difference in our age, it didn’t seem to matter.

“She was everything a boy could have wanted - great-looking, always laughing and liked by everyone.

“One time she called me from Los Angeles, saying, ‘Guess who I’ve just beaten at ping-pong? Leo DiCaprio.’ How do you compete with that?”

Lynne’s book also reveals how Britney - who broke down in tears when she found out her intimate secrets were to be published - took drugs at 15 and started drinking aged 13.

Russell Brand offers clues about Britney's VMAs opening act
Posted by Kevin on 04 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

UsMagazine.com: British comic Russell Brand won't spill the beans on what exactly Britney Spears will do when she opens Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards.

But he'll tell you this much: "She's not serving canap's or doing a bizarre haircut on herself!" he said on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM radio show Thursday.

"She's not performing, but she's certainly doing [the show] in a professional capacity," said Brand, 33, who serves as host. He admitted he has some tricks up his sleeve for the pop star.

"I might get the opportunity to pinch her back in revenge for the trailer," he joked, referencing their cheeky TV promo. "I know at some point I will try and pinch her!"

In a statement Wednesday, the 26-year-old singer - who suffered an embarrassing performance at last year's show - said she was "excited" about returning to the stage.

"MTV has long played an important role in my career," she said. "How can I not be there to kick off their 25th VMAs?"

Spears, who has been nominated 17 times, is also up for three awards for her "Piece of Me" video.

Plenty of people will be rooting for her.

"She is so on her game and ready to prove to everyone that she is back," Lance Bass told Usmagazine.com at a Facebreaker bash in Hollywood on Wednesday. "She needs no advice from me - she is a seasoned professional."

Access Hollywood: Britney will kock-off the VMAs with something "fun and unexpected"
Posted by Kevin on 04 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

AccessHollywood.com: Britney Spears will kick off the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, the network announced on Wednesday.

And the pop star couldn’t be happier.

“MTV has long played an important role in my career. How can I not be there to kick off their 25th VMAs?” Britney said in a statement to MTV. “I’m excited to open the entire show, to say hi to my fans and to be nominated.”

Britney, who has never won a VMA (despite 16 past nominations), is up this year for Video of the Year, Best Pop Video and Best Female Video for her single “Piece of Me.”

However, following her highly criticized musical opener of “Gimme More” at last year’s VMAs, Britney will not open this year’s show with a performance.

Instead, MTV Networks Music Group President Van Toffler said it will be something “fun and unexpected” to kick off Sunday night’s show.

“Britney has done everything from perform with a snake, lock lips with Madonna and prove that what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas,” Toffler said, referring to last year’s uninspired number. “I can’t wait to see what she does to kick off this year’s show.”

Her manager, Larry Rudolph, confirmed the news to Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush. Larry added in that Britney’s performance would be more of a cameo.

“She is not performing,” Larry told Billy. “She looks great and is very excited to be there.”

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Britney taped a promo spot with VMA host Russell Brand, which features Brand and Britney, along with a very large, and overtly metaphorical elephant in the room.

The pachyderm performs tricks in the background as Britney and Brand joke about his less-than-household-name-in-America status.

The 25th MTV Video Music Awards air Sunday, September 7 at 9 PM EST.

Confirmed and official: Britney will attend and open the Video Music Awards this weekend
Posted by Kevin on 04 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

MTV.com: Will she or won't she? For weeks, that's been the buzz, and some of the most hard-core Britney Spears watchers have weighed in with opinions about what an appearance at this weekend's VMAs might do for the singer's career.

Well, now it's official: Britney will appear at Sunday's VMAs, which take place at Paramount Studios in Hollywood and begin at 9 p.m. ET. Although the pop star will not be performing, she will open the show.

The singer - who has been nominated for many VMAs but has not yet won one - will be on hand to see if this year is her year.

She's nominated for three awards: Best Female Video, Best Pop Video, and Video of the Year for "Piece of Me."

"MTV has long played an important role in my career," Spears said in a statement. "How can I not be there to kick off their 25th VMAs? I'm excited to open the entire show, to say hi to my fans and to be nominated."

It's unclear exactly what Britney has up her sleeve, but based on the singer's previous VMA appearances, it's sure to leave people talking.

"Britney has done everything from perform with a snake, lock lips with Madonna and prove that what happens in Vegas doesn't always stay in Vegas," said Van Toffler, president of MTV Networks Music/ LOGO/ Films Group. "I can't wait to see what she does to kick off this year's show."

Earlier this week, MTV News had some longtime Britney observers weigh in on whether the singer should appear at the awards, and nearly all of them agreed that, as in previous years, if she wants to make an impression, the VMAs is the place to do it.

"If you want to make a big splash," Carson Daly said, "what better platform than the VMAs?"

Perez Hilton agreed, saying that all Britney needs to do is show up and smile. "That's what people want," he said. "They want to see her smiling. Even if all she does is smile and wave, I say that's mission accomplished."

Britney: "My Father saved my life"
Posted by Kevin on 04 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

ShowbizSpy.com: Britney Spears credits her father, Jamie, for helping her get her life back on track.

Jamie Spears -- who is officially the conservator of the Toxic singer's financial affairs and estate -- has helped his daughter overcome her recent troubles, and is helping Britney return to her former glory.

And Britney is thankful for her father's help.

She tells Britain's Daily Star newspaper, "My father saved my life. I probably wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him. I've not always been a good daughter, but he basically gave up his job and his life to look after me at a time when I wasn't even sure I wanted to go on living. I owe him my life."

Jamie has bought in a a personal trainer, a chef, a lifestyle coach, self-help books and an alcohol counselor to help get his daughter back on the straight and narrow after a turbulent 12 months.

Meanwhile, Britney will have to wait until the end of the week to learn if she will have to stand trial for a misdemeanor driving license offense.

The pop star's attorney, Michael Flanagan, urged Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James A. Steele to dismiss the case on Tuesday morning, prompting the judge to review the details of the case.

Spears was found to be in possession of an invalid out-of-state license when she was questioned by police over an accident she caused last year (07).

Flanagan told the court he felt his client was being singled out because of her celebrity status.

Britney's license trial not going away
Posted by Kevin on 04 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

EOnline.com: Whether or not it's because she's a celebrity, Britney Spears still has to face the music at some point.

A judge has rejected her camp's motion to dismiss a year-old misdemeanor charge against her for driving with an invalid license, leaving the possibility of an October trial on the table.

Spears' attorney, Michael Flanagan, who has maintained that his client is getting a bum rap thanks to her high profile, told E! News Tuesday that he was hoping that Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James A. Steele would toss the case.

"The law is clear," Flanagan said. "She should have just been issued a notice to correct pursuant to the vehicle code. The law says you shall issue a notice to correct. They did not do that. They just moved to prosecute. And she corrected it by obtaining a valid California license before she even got the notice."

Britney's Las Vegas Labor Day getaway + She didn't see Adnan
Posted by Kevin on 02 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

ENews.com: After Kevin Federline picked up the kids Saturday, Britney Spears jetted to Las Vegas for the holiday weekend, where her photographer ex-beau Adnan Ghalib also happened to be enjoying himself.

After touching down in a private jet, Brit headed to the Mirage Hotel and Casino, where she and her entourage [including hairdresser Kim Vo] had a luxury villa with a private pool. But instead she chose to sun herself at the Bare Pool Lounge in the VIP area.

“She was in her bikini and looked awesome,” an onlooker tells E! News. “She looked really thin and happy.”

Britney also took in the hotel’s Cirque du Soleil show, Love, on Saturday night with her bodyguard and her assistant Brett. But did she ever meet up with Adnan? Although the paparazzo was seen walking through the lobby of the Mirage, the two weren’t seen together…in public, at least.

“I don’t think it was a coincidence that he was there,” a Vegas source says. “What are the odds?”

Note: It was confirmed by sources close to Britney that the two never met while in Las Vegas this weekend.

What's going on with the VMAs?
Posted by Kevin on 02 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

It's been hard to keep track with all the reports, rumors and confirmations that came out about Britney's appearance at the VMAs... Here's the deal:

-Britney will NOT perform during the award show. She decided not to because she wants to concentrate on her new album and didn't have time in her schedule for rehearsals.

-Britney will present the nominees in the first category of the night accompanied by either Russel Brand or Micheal Phelps.

-According to my source, Britney will open the show, dancing a little bit for fun and pretending to start a performance. She'll then stop and just go on to present the award.

-Rumor has it that Brit's new single will be playing while she gets on stage. We'll see...

The only sad thing in all that is how MTV keeps using Britney for promotion. They make everyone excited, release statement to confuse us all and then, some fans come to expect too much... If Britney ends up not doing much during the show or whatever, they'll be mad at her when really, that's the only thing that was planned all the way. Of course, what MTV wants is to attract viewers. Because we all know that where Britney Spears goes, everyone follows.

Britney will be at the VMAs
Posted by Kevin on 02 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

FOXNews.com: Despite denials from manager Larry Rudolph that Britney Spears will be "performing" at the Video Music Awards this weekend, whispers are that she is still making an appearance as a presenter in the highly anticipated awards show.

We're told that everyone from the production crew to wardrobe are preparing for the pop princess to make a comeback, although nobody from MTV would officially confirm.

What’s interesting is that an inside source said Britney has her own dressing room. Either the gal is getting super-special treatment or she will do a little more than simply hand out an award.

The pop princess has also RSVP’d for 944 Magazine’s MTV VMA pre-party to be held at Hollywood hotspot Kress on Wednesday. So if Miss Spears does show that will mark her first officially scheduled party appearance since she launched Las Vegas club LAX exactly one year ago.

Tarts has also been told that Christina Aguilera will be showing off her four-octave range at the VMAs and there is the possibility of a performance by the Queen of Pop, Madonna. So will this year's MTV showdown be deja vu? In 2003, Aguilera, Spears and Madonna made headlines with a three-way routine that included a steamy girl-on-girl kiss.

New layout release date pushed back
Posted by Kevin on 02 Sep 2008  Comment at Pop Prodigy

I decided to push back the release of the new layout for now because there're a few things here and there which need to be fixed before it's out. A few details which will require more time, you know... But because I couldn't bare to have the site on a 'be right back' status, I just had to re-launch it and update it like I've always done! I change the header but remember that this is just temporary. The new look should be out early next week!
