Awwww... The First Britney & Kevin Interview

Jeannette Walls has wedding gossip here.

UPDATE: Excerpts!!!

On meeting at Hollywood club Joseph's...
Britney: "I always sit at the same table. On the far right. In the corner. Where I can see everything. And I saw him. He was just standing there. I was like, 'Hi, just come with me' ... We liked each other right away ... A boyfriend was the last thing on my mind. But he was like a magnet. I was being pulled. It was beyond my control."

But didn't you already do the 'I'm rushing into marrying a random dude' thing?
Britney: "[That wedding] was a total ugh. I was not in love at all ... My other loves were like puppy love. They were like practice for the real thing. This is just deeper."

On the proposal...
Britney: "We'd always talked about how some people don't have to get married when they're in love … Then all of a sudden I said, 'What if you want to get married?' And I kind of went from there to asking him if he would marry me. I asked him."
Kevin: "And I said no ... I thought the guy was supposed to ask the girl. So a couple of minutes went by and then I asked her ... I'd known for a while that she's the one."

Romantic!

More buzz here and here. "I kissed a bunch of frogs and finally found my prince," says Spears. Poor Jason Alexander.

I'm sure someone has already made the Color Me Badd joke, but...I picture Brit walking down the aisle to "I Wanna Sex You Up."

oh my god - the trucker hat actually comes off!
did you see the Scoop on MSNBC.com? she's hired some celebrity wedding planner who is known for elegant, upscale events, but who has also been known to do gingham tablecloths and burlap napkins if Britney wants to evoke her Louisiana background. WHAT?

celebrities really need to learn to stop saying things like "happily ever after."

LOL>OHGOD.
The guy has a second baby on the way any day now-he cheated on his fiance to be with Britney.He doesn't work.All his ex girlfirends say he wanted to be a star and that he cheated on all of them.
Britney is really a sad sack these days.Not to mention STooPID.

i can just see it in a few months: "Britney's Wedding Called Off" and in the article Spears says that her and Federline are "really good friends still." According to a rep, "It wasnt the right time. They wanted different things out of life."

I'm sure Kevin was able to afford the ring after making some serious jack for appearing in "You Got Served."

Yeah, when I see a cute guy in Hollywood, I'm like "just come with me" too. I know your your girlfriend is pregnant and all but "just come with me"!!!????
And then, like other things I've caught along the way, it's forever.

And noone has commented on that damn dog! In England we had a campaign for a few years which stated that, "a dog is for life, not just for Christmas" to stem all the unwanted puppies in the new year. Well, it seems rather irresponsible of her to go parading this little puppy around. Now all the little kids will want to copy her...

And yeah, "I'd known for a while that she's the one...to secure me financially for the rest of my life"

Prenup or no prenup, the money he'll get for selling his story....phewf!

Britney: "I plan to meet his daughter," Spears says. "I love little ones. I think the situation is good."

The situation is good? Indeed I have to agree with this guy. She is the biggest moron in America next to Bush. Only a dumbass would say something so absurd as "I think the situation is good." Fucking twat!

Britney seems real screwy these days.What happened to her?
Didn't her Momma ever teach her anything?Note to Britney Spears:
If a guy leaves his pregnant girlfriend for you don't be surprised if he takes you for all your worth.

I read where he is getting a $1500 a week 'stipend' from Britney and he used it to buy her the ring she's sporting.
This guy is such a pathetic loser.He has been following Britney around for months-no ambition of his own much less any life of his own oh except for ofcourse the pregnant girlfriend he left to be with millionair Britney Spears.
He is disgusting.And Britney is a retarded redneck.

I cant believe she has the nerve to call herself a musician. Musicians write and play, she sings songs that other people write. i think she is really over paid. theres bands out there that have more talent in one pinky than britney has in her whole vocal cord system such as The Mars Volta, and The 88 and The Ramones. i hate pop... i piss on pop
