Britney Needs
"To Sober Down" To Jive
Britney Spears' party-hopping ways
may cost her the prominent role at the concert kicking off the NFL season,
reported New York Post online.
Apparently, the teen crooner has been
offered by the league to play a concert in Washington, DC in September, to
kick-start the season. But thanks to the paparazzi canning a tipsy Spears'
letting her hair down at Manhattan hotspots, the NFL is threatening to show
her the door.
"They called her manager and said if
she didn't settle down, she was not going to be the headliner. They don't want
anyone associated with any kind of scandal, " a source was quoted as
saying.
However, those close to the star of
Hit
me baby, one more time vow that the NFL gave no such scare and remain
confident that she will steal the headlines yet again.
Incidentally, Bon Jovi had inaugurated the
season last year, with a concert on a football-shaped stage in Times Square.

Stars Gather To Roast MTV's Daly
Madonna, Britney Spears, and Nelly will
join a host of artists and comedians June 28 at the Hollywood Palladium in Los
Angeles for the first "MTV Bash." The event will serve as a
comedy/concert roast of MTV personality and late-night TV host Carson Daly.
Comedians Andy Dick, Jon Stewart, Jimmy Kimmel, Jeffrey Ross, and Adam Carolla
will join the festivities, as will Carmen Electra and Sarah Silverman. Other
attendees will include Jessica Simpson, Papa Roach, 98 Degrees, Lit, Usher,
and the Pussycat Dolls, with more to be announced. The Bash will be recorded
for a July 13 broadcast.
Daly, who recently renewed his contract with MTV for two years, is the host of
the network's popular "Total Request Live" daily countdown show as
well as its executive producer. The guests and comedians, many of whom are
friends of the host, are expected to ridicule and poke fun at Daly's public
image, work, and love life.

Oops!
Brit's Brunette Blip
|
How did Britney grow back
her blond locks so fast? After receiving tons of flack from newspapers and
magazines for cutting her flowing blond mane into a choppy bob and dyeing it a
shade of brown that most closely resembled shoe polish, Spears has suddenly
transformed back into her old blond, shaggy-haired self.
But the pop tart's personal
hairstylist, Kevin Mancuso, says that the brunette bob was temporary and that
"the color wasn't permanent."
"That's the nature of
Britney," he says. "Her hair was gradually coming back to blond, and
then she went to Bermuda and the sun lightened it more, and that helped it a
bit."
Photos may argue differently, but
Mancuso insists that Spears didn't undergo a full day of having hair extensions
weaved into her scalp - nor, he says, did she get another dye job.
"There are some temporary
extensions, a few here and there," he concedes. "But it's been two
months and her hair grows fast."
Well, not quite. Britney was spotted
leaving a SoHo salon with the chin-length, murky-brown 'do the weekend of April
19.
But shortly afterward, on May 31, she
showed up at a concert in Camden, N.J., with about five more inches of hair -
blond hair.
"Britney is young and gorgeous
enough to be able to change her look with any color or style she chooses,"
says her publicist, Nathalie Moar, who adds that there's no real reason behind
the cut-and-colors - she's merely experimenting.
"There's nothing contrived about
the changes," says Moar.
And while she's currently laying down
tracks for her next album, it will be a while before the heavy publicity
schedule kicks in.
So there's no real pressure for Spears
to be looking her absolute best right now.
Unless, that is, she wanted to scrub up
for the recently taped MTV Movie Awards.
The blonde-to-brunette and back act
cost her. Hair extensions could run you anywhere from $5,000-$6,000 at a
professional hair salon.
