Bugg-Eyed Paris
Bug Eyed Paris was seen leaving Prego restaurant in Beverly Hills with boy toy benji madden yesterday. One thing is for sure, Ms. Hilton is quite stuck on Madden. Everywhere he goes, she follows. Who knows about their little romance……… it may last. Paris goes threw boyfriends like underwear (well lack there of) so we [...]
Mimi's Secondhand Goods
That engagement ring Mariah Carey's been sporting looks AWFUlly familiar!
The rock appears to be identical to the one that Nick Cannon gave his former fiance, Vctoria's Secret model Selita.
Hey, he spent a lot of money on it and after his ex returned it, Nick wanted to put it to good use!
If it is the same ring, should Mimi be pissed???????
We think regifting an engagement ring is kinda….ridiculously TACKY!!!!!
Update:
A source close to Cannon's ex-fiance, Selita, confirms exclusively to PerezHilton.com, "That IS the same ring."
Kiki's Heart Of Gold
Shakira isn't the only Latin bomshell that's helping out the children.
Enriquetta Martin is lending a hand as well!
Ricky's particular focus has been fighting human trafficking, and Washington, D.C. residents are getting a special treat. Ricky's going to be opening an office in Washington, so you might see him there often.
At the Inter-American Development Bank, Martin introduced a toll-free hotline for victims to call for help.
Martin said, "Once you have all this information, if you do nothing, it's like allowing it to happen."
There are about 2 million people each year who are coerced into sex slavery or forced labor worldwide. There's about 20,000 or so cases in the U.S.
Ricky adds that through his foundation, The Ricky Martin Foundation, they have saved many lives.

When The Repo Man Takes Your Car!
Some people just don't know how to manage their money!
And those people seem to include rapper Lil' Kim.
New York's CW11 news visited Lil Kim's house, along with a repo crew. It was for a report focusing on the rising number of auto repossessions.
Wonder who tipped off the local news about her car?
Isn't it illegal to release private records?
Apparently, Lil' Kim hasn't paid for her silver Bentley in months though.
What, she's making payments? You know the way to go is buy it all at once. And if you can't afford paying for a Bentley upfront, then don't buy one!
When Kim was confronted by one of the repo men, she told them her accountant would take care of it, but her car still had to be taken.
Cyro Mirando, the repo guy on site from Commercial Service Corpr the keys, said "She didn't wanna cooperate. Basically, she told us to get off the property. We were hoping that she'd give us the keys, being that it'd be the right thing to do. It's not her vehicle."
When the CW11 reporter went to confront Kim on "the economy and the issue of repossessions," Lil' Kim responded with "Oh please, get the fuck out of here. You are so fucking ridiculous."
Don't fuck with the Queen B!
According to reports, there has been a increase of 15-20% in repos. You know the economy is bad when there's such a high rise in repossessions!!!
A rep for the repo company that took Kim's car says, "Another stereotype situation is that the people who lose their cars are poor. It's not the truth at all. The truth is it's pretty evenly distributed throughout the entire economic base."
He also adds, "We're really not there to negotiate. The customer, many times, does not understand that we're gonna take the car with or without their cooperation."
Sucks for Kimmy!

It's Confirmed! Mimi's Engaged!!!!!
They sure move fast!
Access Hollywood is is reporting that Mariah Carey and new boyfriend, Nick Cannon, are DEFINITELY getting married.
Yes, that is an engagement ring she's been seen wearing recently!
Mimi's 38-years old. Nick's only 27!
Cougariffic!
Mimi was previously married to music mogul Tommy Mottola.
Nick was previously engaged to a Victoria's Secret model. This will be his first marriage, though.
Congrats to the pair.
How long until they break up??????

Avril Doesn't Care About Her Fans
As we were the first to tell you….
April Lavigne "postponed" her San Diego concert tonight.
Perezious reader Jeff tells us that excessive partying could be the main reason why she can't play in San Diego this evening.
He shares with us:
"Avril and Boys Like Girls (Avril's support band) played here (in Vegas) last night at the Palms…yesterday afternoon (at a private performance before the big show) the lead singer of Boys Like Girls Martin Johnson said, "We (he & Avril) got so wasted last night in her suite." He told us how she (Avril) had a bowling alley in her suite and that they "went shot (alcohol) for shot all night long." Even at the show last night, in front of her very young audience, she claimed that she was "hung-over" from drinking so much the night before. I think that is one of the many reasons she bucked the San Diego show…"
So responsible. Promoting drinking to the tweens in the audience.
April sucks!

Our future husband, actor Van Hansis, has been nominated for a Daytime Emmy for his portrayal of Luke Snyder on As the World Turns.
Luke and Noah rule!
The crazy conservatives may have their panties in a bunch that there is a storyline involving an openly gay couple - that kiss! - on daytime TV, but it's nice to see that Emmy voters don't care.
Forget the hate. Appreciate!
We hope Van walks away with a statue!

Madonna Heard Us!!!!
Just earlier, we were moaning that she isn't doing enough TV. Now….
Madonna is reaching out to the peeps!
For the first time in BET history, Madge is going to be hanging out with the network's 106 & PARK team this coming Friday!
According to a press release, the show's prepping to give her Madgesty "a welcome celebration like never before".
Madonna will also introduce her new video 4 Minutes, featuring Timbaland.
While in NYC Madge should do SNL and maybe Today or Good Morning America, too!
And Letterman!
And Conan!
And TRL!
And pretty much EVERYTHING!
You gotta hussle, momma.
Paula Was NOT Drunk Yesterday
Paula Abdul's publicist, Jeff Ballard, just sent us the following email.
This is what he has to say:
"Set the record straight…..Paula was NOT drunk yesterday, she did not have a martini yesterday at lunch. It was a sparkling water with lime….she DOES NOT drink……you are just repeating what TMZ had up for a few minutes earlier today and have since taken down completely since they didn't have the proof to back it up…and don't want to risk legal action. It also wasn't her assistant that was with her…it was the head of Talent for FOX.
Do the right thing and correct this erroneous reporting."
And there you have it!

San Diego Passes on Avril
Sources reveal to PerezHilton.com that April Lavigne has "postponed" her concert in San Diego concert.

Lohan + Snoop Dog = $$$$?
Lindsay Lohan is trying her hardest to make it big again.
And how does she plan to do so??????
She's going to partner up with Snoop Dogg for her third album!
Yes, unfortunately, she IS releasing another shiteous record.
LaLohan is now a part of Motown. Yes. Lohan is on Motown.
As for her track with Snoop Dogg, insiders are saying the song is "amazing." Those insiders are probably Lindsay and Dina!
Adding to the list of collaborators, Motown will be bringing in musicians like Pharrell and Timbaland to help try and make a good record.
That's not always guaranteed, though.
Look at what happened to Ashlee Simpson!
Also working on a record is Lindsay's little sister, Dina Ali, who's in the studio recording her own album for Jimmy Lovine’s Interscope via Maloof Music.
What's next? Mom Dina to release her own album?
We should be so lucky!

Her Career Is Not Totally Over Yet
She landed the cover of a magazine!
Failed actress and former reality TV star Jessica Simpson is calling butt boy Tony Romo her "future husband."
She just doomed THAT relationship!
Jugs tells the June issue of Glamour that she is "in love" with the Dallas Cowboys quarterback, whom she says helped her gain more confidence.
Jess says she even wrote him a song, "Back in My Old Boots."
"He reintroduced me to myself," Simpson says. "I thought that I had to be deeper, more profound and more artsy. You change with the guys you date. Tony taught me that because he loves me [as me]. He made me feel comfortable [being myself] again," she adds.
Simpson also reveals that Romo tried to kiss her on their first date. "I was taken aback," she says.
"The fact that this guy, on our first date, in the first 10 minutes of dinner, wanted to lean over the table and say, 'This is my girl, and I want to kiss her' — our first kiss in front of everybody — was awesome."
Really???? We think it's a tad presumptuous and crass!
Fugs & Man: In Love!
InTouch Weekly is reporting that there's some truth to those John Mayer / Maniston hook-up rumors.

When InTouch asked how he was doing after spending four days with his new love, John smiled and responded, "My weekend was good."

The Return Of Gandalf
Sir Ian McKellen has confirmed that he will be portraying Gandfalf in the new feature film adaptations of JRR Tolkein's The Hobbit.
There are two movie being planned.
The first will be released in 2010 and then the next in 2011.
The movies will be prequels to the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
McKellen stated, "Yes, it's true. It's not a part that you turn down. I loved playing Gandalf."
He adds, "As to how it's going to work over two films and what going to happen on screen, well Guillermo [the director] has not got down to working out the major details yet - I can tell you it's going to be amazing though."
The first movie is set to be the adaptation of The Hobbit. The second will be an original story which will focus on the 60 years between the book and the beginning of Lord of the Rings trilogy.
A new story?????
What do the diehard Tolkien fans think about THAT?????

Wrong!
When you're dad is a perv, it just kinda runs in the family!
According to reports, a 22-year old woman has been having "inappropriate sexual relations" with Billy Bob Thornton's son, Willie.
He's 14!!!!
The woman's ex-boyfriend apparently became jealous and then called the LAPD, informing them his former lady was having sex with a minor.
As y'all know, it's illegal for an adult to have sex with anyone under 18, even if consensual.
Sources say the Thorntons have been cooperating with the LAPD sex crimes unit's investigations.
What was that ho thinking???
We're sure her family is very proud!

Kathy Griffin To Guest Star On Hannah Montan????
Disney is in the media a lot this week, mainly because of Miley Cyrus's Vanity Fair photo shoot controversy and her recent provocative photos that have been popping up online.
Now we hear that Kathy Griffin was set to appear on an episode of the Disney hit show Hannah Montanna.
Griffin says she's not certain what character she would have portrayed. She says, "I might have been the nosy neighbor. Or maybe the hooker with a heart of gold."
Kathy was approached about a year ago to make an appearance and agreed to do so, even without ever watching the show.
Hey, any publicity is good publicity!
After discussing it with some friends, Kathy adds, "Suddenly everyone was telling me how huge the show is with kids, so I was really excited."
Unfortunately, the timing didn't work out for the fall 2007 season, so they postponed it for the new season. Though it would never happen.
Disney fired Kathy before she even stepped foot on the studio!
Why?
Because of a joke she made during her infamous speech at last years Creative Arts Emmys, where Kathy stated, "Suck it, Jesus! This award is my god now!"
And because of those few words, Kathy adds, "I was fired from Hannah Montana for my 'suck it Jesus' remark. Which I can tell you now that Miley Cyrus has been flashing her green bra and posing topless."
She adds, "I was basically told, 'Disney doesn't want you anywhere near the building.'"
Disney is trying to deny the reports, and a spokesperson recently said via email, "With all casting decisions, a 'pass' or 'accept' is ultimately a creative decision. The 'pass' on Kathy Griffin in a particular guest role had nothing to do with comedy routines or public comments."
Yea, riiiiiight.

He Did it! World Record Holder!!!
We had some doubts, but….he did it!!
David Blaine set a new world record Wednesday for breath-holding.
The illusionist and daredevil held his breath underwater for 17 minutes and 4 seconds!
Blain's attempt was broadcast live during the Oprah Winfrey Show on Wednesday.
According to reports, Blaine looked relaxed afterward and said the record was "a lifelong dream."
The previous record was 16 minutes and 32 seconds, set Feb. 10 by Switzerland's Peter Colat, according to Guinness World Records.
"I feel great," Blaine said after he broke the record.
While he was submerged he started to develop an irregular heartbeat. And, yet, he went through with it anyways.
Congrats! Idiot!

Coachella Pig Found!
The big ass pig that was released and then lost during Roger Waters' (of classic rock band Pink Floyd) performance at the Coachella Music Festival's been found!
The pig was as tall as a two-story house and as wide as two buses, but was just found in tatters a few miles away from the festival venue.
Poor little swine!
The pig had also displayed the words "Don't be led to the slaughter" and a cartoon of Uncle Sam holding two bloody cleavers on one side. The other side read "Fear builds walls" and the underside read "Obama" with a ticked ballot box for Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama.
Concert organizers had offered a $10,000 reward for its return which will be split between two householders who found piles of pink plastic in their gardens.
Oink oink!
There's Crazy People All Around
Uma Thurman's mom testified Tuesday against the crazy stalker who was harassing her daughter.
An ex-mental patient, Jack Jordan 37, is accused of calling and threatening to kill himself unless Uma fulfilled his love fantasies. He's apparently been stalking Uma for about two years.
Aside from the call, there were also 19 emails that Jordan sent. Oh, and Mr. Crazy also turned up at her trailer during a SoHo movie shoot. AND he even rang the doorbell at her Greenwich Village home.
The family obviously feared the mentally ill Jordan might redirect his suicidal urges and go after Thurman or her children.
Uma's mother, Birgitte Thurman, stated that Jordan "believed he and my daughter had a predestined life, that he knew this and she didn't. I tried to explain this is a fantasy. … My daughter has no interest in meeting him. He said if that was the case, then there was no meaning in life for him, he would have to kill himself."
An email from Jordan, read in court by Uma's father, states "Today the center of my forehead is ticking now and then. I feel in love with your daughter Uma. Please don't feel you have a stalker on your hands."
Uma may be set to testify on Thursday.
Let's hope she's convincing enough to keep the crazy guy away!

Mariah Bitch Slapped Her
This has to be a bit of a disappointment for Madonna!
The Queen of Pop's new CD, Hard Candy, went on sale this Tuesday and it is expected to move between 275,000 and 300,000 copies its first week in America.
Good but not great by any means!
Madonna's last CD, Confessions…, debuted to about 350,000 copies its first week.
AND, that was without much radio support for first single Hung Up.
The fact that radio has been behind M's new single, 4 Minutes, in a big way makes her expected debut for Hard Candy that much more disappointing.
Mariah Carey, on the other hand, not only sold about 475,000 copies of her new CD, E=MC2, but….that was also Mimi's biggest debut week ever.
A lot of the blame must be handed to Madonna. She hasn't done as much promotion for the new record as she should.
She's barely done any TV!
Mariah, on the other hand, pimped her new album out hardcore, doing tons of appearances from morning television to TWO nights on the widely-watched American Idol.
Madge got lazy! She did many many magazine covers and interviews but not enough TV.
She hasn't done ANY talk shows! NOT ONE!
Then, Madonna had the balls (or naivete) to refuse to talk about the CD during her junket last week - Today show, Access Hollywood - because she wanted to focus on her documentary, which screened at the TriBeCa film festival.
Mimi hustled and it paid off. She WANTED her new album to do well. And it did.
Madonna, not so much.
Money Pit
Thank God for he Wino, she keeps things interesting!
Her beehive keeps the tabloid writers of the U.K. employed and happy!
Rumors are a circulating that Amy Winehouse will leave current label after her next album so she can start up her own label.
Wino supposedly would go into the label thing with the guy she just dumped, Alex Haynes, who's 'gained music know-how' through being Amy's manager's assistant.
A source told the UK's Sun, "For the first time in her career, Amy is beginning to have her head turned by the cash she can make… It's never been a huge deal in the past, but she is beginning to realise everyone else is making all the money out of her success."
The source goes on to report that Wino would apparently like to sign her friends Remi Nicole and Tyler James and have control over her own finances.
Again this is just a rumor. (Smells like bullshit.)
But, should it actually happen, we think it's a disaster in the making!
Amy can't take care of herself…how can she oversee a business?

Headline of the Week Weak
" People of Lesbos take gay group to court over term 'Lesbian'"

People of Lesbos take gay group to court over term 'Lesbian'
A Greek court has been asked to draw the line between the natives of the Aegean Sea island of Lesbos and the world's gay women.
Three islanders from Lesbos — home of the ancient poet Sappho, who praised love between women — have taken a gay rights group to court for using the word lesbian in its name.
One of the plaintiffs said Wednesday that the name of the association, Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece, "insults the identity" of the people of Lesbos, who are also known as Lesbians.
"My sister can't say she is a Lesbian," said Dimitris Lambrou. "Our geographical designation has been usurped by certain ladies who have no connection whatsoever with Lesbos," he said.
The three plaintiffs are seeking to have the group barred from using "lesbian" in its name and filed a lawsuit on April 10. The other two plaintiffs are women.
Also called Mytilene, after its capital, Lesbos is famed as the birthplace of Sappho. The island is a favored holiday destination for gay women, particularly the lyric poet's reputed home town of Eressos.
"This is not an aggressive act against gay women," Lambrou said. "Let them visit Lesbos and get married and whatever they like. We just want (the group) to remove the word lesbian from their title."
He said the plaintiffs targeted the group because it is the only officially registered gay group in Greece to use the word lesbian in its name. The case will be heard in an Athens court on June 10.
Sappho lived from the late 7th to the early 6th century B.C. and is considered one of the greatest poets of antiquity. Many of her poems, written in the first person and intended to be accompanied by music, contain passionate references to love for other women.
Lambrou said the word lesbian has only been linked with gay women in the past few decades. "But we have been Lesbians for thousands of years," said Lambrou, who publishes a small magazine on ancient Greek religion and technology that frequently criticizes the Christian Church.
Very little is known of Sappho's life. According to some ancient accounts, she was an aristocrat who married a rich merchant and had a daughter with him. One tradition says that she killed herself by jumping off a cliff over an unhappy love affair.
Lambrou says Sappho was not gay. "But even if we assume she was, how can 250,000 people of Lesbian descent — including women — be considered homosexual?"
The Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece could not be reached for comment.
Attention All Hills Fans
Is there really a sex tape????
The never ending debate over the million dollar question question!
The sex tape has ruined Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag's friendship and divided many friends and the millions of The Hills viewers into opposing sides.
Now, Beef Curtain's ex-boyfriend, Jason Wahler, is speaking out against Spencer Pratt.
Spencer was on The Tyra Banks Show yesterday and said, "I know for 100% fact it did exist – 1000%!"
Heidi also claims it's not a rumor, adding, "From what I have heard from confirmed sources… her ex-boyfriend was going around trying to sell it."
Somehow that wouldn't surprise us of Jason
As for Lauren still having the tape, Heidi adds, "Well, I mean, I am not sure she has it anymore… but from what I've heard… I am not really allowed to elaborate."
Did Lauren burn the tape? Does Jason still have it?
In a statement, Wahler says, "I do not have a sex tape of Lauren Conrad and one does not exist. Spencer Pratt is lying again to get attention. Lauren is my friend and it is insulting to her to suggest this."
Is it insulting or just a possible money loss?
Squeaky-clean Lauren can't have a sex tape leak!
Who else would pay her bills if MTV drops her for bad press?
Then again, MTV wouldn't drop her. Please, they've had bigger trash hosting dating game shows.
We KNOW how to end this ONCE and FOREVER.
Attention Lauren, Jason, and Spencer we have a solution for all the drama.
PerezHilton.com will personally pay for ALL three of you to take a lie detector test!!!!
YES!!!!
That's the easiest way to solve this all.
Why keep playing the he said/she said game????

She Was Drunk
As many of you have guess….
Paula Abdul was likely drizunk during her loopy appearance on American Idol yesterday!
According to spies, Paula had a martini with lunch, around 1:00 P.M. Pacific, at Maggiano's.
Idol tapes at 5:00 P.M. L.A. times.
Abdul was "bubbly" when she left the restaurant and had to have an assistant shut her up.
Paula must be a lightweight…or she probably had more than one 'tini!

Hard to Beat the Hooker Habit
He just can't get enough!
According to reports, a former Los Angeles madam reveals in the new issue of Rolling Stone magazine that she was supplying Charlie Sheen with hos up ’til last year.
Scandalicious!
Sheen was dating that Brooke Mueller (who is now his fiance) last year.
Wonder how she feels about this revelation???!
The madam, whose been supplying him hookers for years, also tells the mag that after Sheen entered court-ordered rehab, she continued to book girls for him "furtively sending them to a doctor's office in LA owned by a friend of Sheen's. The orderlies at the rehab center would let him out for his frequent medical appointments."
Sheen's publicist responded sarcastically when asked to comment, "This is an old, old, old story. But, if you're looking for a really good story, I heard that Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe are getting a divorce."
Smart! Try and make a joke to deflect from the truth, but he's not denying. Cuz it's probs true!!

It's A Frenzy!
We don't play video games anymore, but it seems like MILLIONS of you still do.
The new "Grand Theft Auto 4" just went on sale Tuesday. And the reaction?
Fans were lining up outside just to be the first to grab some copies!
It's like the Tickle Me Elmo craze, but for older kiddies.
Retailers were taking advance orders for the game weeks ago, and many of the stores opened their doors at midnight to allow eager fans the first opportunity to purchase the game.
Estimates are that the first-week sales for the game will be around $400 million!
Dayum!!!!!
What's the appeal of the game???
One crazy devoted fan, John Alba, who waited in line at a GameStop in New York for hours to purchase the game, says, "It gives you the opportunity to escape reality. This game has everything — sex, drugs, cars, money … anything you want."
We thought that's what the internet was for!
The game's maker, Take-Two Interactive Software, is facing a $2 billion takeover from its rival, Electronic Arts.
Take-Two has rejected EA's $2 billion offer. CRAZY!! How do you turn down $2 billion? Apparently they see the figure as too low and are waiting to receive the dollar amounts from Grand Theft Auto's recent release.
Judging from their first-week sales, holding out seems like a smart move!
No Wonder Linds Has Issues
Her upcoming reality show is gonna SUCK. It's bound to be a watered-down version of her life, which is one delicious mess.
According to reports, Dina Lohan was an absolute wreck at Monday's Made of Honor premiere party in the NYC.
Orange Oprah and her hanger-ons partied at the Metropolitan Club ’til the early morning hours.
An eyewitness says she was dancing, drinking and playing with her hair extensions. Typical stuff….for someone in their teens of twenties!
The insider goes on to say, "The hours are going by and everyone is leaving, some people left very late, and she was still there partying, still going. She probably stayed past the staff."
She's like the Energizer bunny! Only instead of batteries….
A little piece of our cold heart goes out to Linds.

Settling Down
They're been engaged (allegedly) for months and months. Now…..
The UK media is reporting that Kate Moss and The Kills' Jamie Hince have booked the East London restaurant Wapping Food for a September 6th wedding reception!
A friend of Cokate's revealed, “They have booked out the entire venue. It will be quite a party. The wedding itself is in the Cotswolds and will be quite intimate. This will be the big event for all their mates.”
Looks like September 6th may be a big business day for London's drug dealers!
Nice day for a white wedding.

Something Good on TV!
What? Not another reality show?
FINALLY!!!!!
Fox is going back to the classics, thankfully.
The station is said to be launching an animated comedy. The first new one in three years!
The concept? A spin-off.
But still. Better than the fake reality shows, like The Hills, right???
As of now, the show will be called Cleveland. And yes, it's a spin-off of the Family Guy.
It is set to launch next Spring.
We love Family Guy, so hopefully this doesn't suck too hard!
Cleveland is expected to air 13 episodes, and staffers are already being hired for the show.
Fox must really love Seth MacFarlane!
The last two animated shows on Fox were Family Guy and American Dad, both created by MacFarlene.
There's also talks of two new cartoons joining the network if they get approved, The Pitts and Sit Down, Shut Up.
There's also four non-cartoon shows set to land on Fox's schedule.
Let's hope this marks a trend of more scripted shows and less "reality" tv.
Get Off 'Er Ass
Juicy Couture filed a lawsuit in Manhattan on Tuesday against Victoria's Secret for 'stealing' Juicy's idea of slapping a brand name on the backsides of sweatpants.
You know, cuz that's SUCH an original idea!
"The similarities are not inadvertent and are designed to capitalize on the success of Juicy Couture," says the Federal suit.
Juicy's also claiming that Victoria's Secret's practice of selling apparel wrapped in the shape of lollipops, bon bons and ice cream cones totally bites off the success of Juicy's Sweet Shoppe packaging.
Guess when money is at stake (i.e. the shopping dollars of the lovely young ladies), copying is NOT viewed as the ultimate form of flattery!
Whose side are U on, ladies???
Hollywood's On Fire!
A fire's raging on the corner of Hollywood and Vine in Hollywoodland!
According to initial reports, the flames have engulfed an unoccupied building that was being turned into a club.
Celeb hot spot Katsuya is a little less than a block away from the site of the fire.
The world famous Capitol Records building is just a few blocks north!
Hollywood traffic's gonna be even more of a bitch than it usually is today….

Havin' a Mini Me!
It's a girl!
Life & Style reveals exclusively to us that Jamie Lynne Spears is going to have a baby girl and that the due date is June 29th!
Uh oh. ANOTHER Spears girl! Wonder what kind of antics this one will get up to!!!!
Granny Lynne Spears is reportedly delighted that she's finally going to have a granddaughter.
However, an insider overheard Lynne say babydaddy, Casey, is "a bit nervous about having a daughter."
Not surprising, as he's seen firsthand the craziness of the Spears women.
Jamie Lynn, on the other hand, is eagerly prepping for the arrival of her 'mini-me'.
A close source to the family says, "She has been buying tons of clothes and is going to do the nursery in white, black and yellow." She's also determined to breast feed her baby…just like big sis BritBrit and Momma did!
Lastly, Jamie Lynn is supposedly considering giving her little girl Granny Spears' name as a middle name. Tear.
