Schadenfreude and Britney Spears

By request, I will write about the Pride of Southern Louisiana, Britney Spears.

Unable to say something funny on my own, I will point you to Pug Bus, and the truly brilliant fake news story, Britney Spears’ donation of panties rejected by Christie’s.

"I was quite stunned by Ms. Spear's gesture," reported Christie's consignment specialist, Adrienne Hines, who heads the Los Angeles division of the auction house. "While we were ever so grateful to receive Princess Di's formal gowns, we were taken aback with Ms. Spears' request that we auction off her undergarments."


Which would explain why Britney’s had such a real problem finding underwear recently. In non-fake news, Spears did nab the coveted Worst Dressed Award from Us Weekly. I’m not sure how the lack of clothes constitutes worst dressed, but there you go. We're all very proud of her for trying to stay in the news.

She also was caught throwing up in the bathroom of hip club Les Deux (like I would know what was hip). Even better, she spent the evening requesting her own songs from the DJ. Someone has to, right? How’s the inevitable slide into irrelevance treating ya, babe?
