Britney Spears engaged to Kevin Federline

All the major news agencies, such as People, MTV, and Reuters, are reporting that Britney Spears is engaged to marry her dancer-boyfriend Kevin Federline. (MTV article)

This story is so big it crashed the Google news server. I tried to search Google News for "Britney Spears" and I got an error page.

This will be Britney's second marriage, but the first marriage doesn't count because it was annulled after 55 hours.

I have no idea why I'm writing about this because this is supposed to be a blog about serious news. But after writing this week about whether or not Britney Spears is fat, I feel obligated to post this followup story.

I think the whole "fat" story was a ruse to keep people's attention away from the real story, that Britney was marrying this Kevin fellow.

I wonder if her recent knee injury, which forced her to cancel her summer Onyx tour, has any relevance?

UPDATE

Kevin Federline's ex-girlfriend, actress Shar Jackson of the TV show "Moesha", is pregnant with their child and she's expecting in July. They already have a two-year-old daughter together.

UPDATE 2

Interesting comments at the blog Gene Expression about why Britney would want to marry her dancer.

One of my college roommates had an ex-girlfriend who was a dance major at Brigham Young University, mecca of Mormon youth, and she one day confided to him that almost all the male dance majors were closeted homosexuals.

Kevin Federline doesn't seem to be gay, based on the number of kids he already has.

The Tiger Beat stories aren't very interesting. You do a better job with the politics and business stories.
