Click here for a sneak peak at Britney on the sitcom How I Met Your Mother. She seems only moderately deranged — it's progress! • The inquest into the death of Anna Nicole Smith's son, Daniel, is ongoing in the Bahamas, and homicide has been ruled out as a cause of demise. There are still four other possibilities to explore, according to TMZ, "accident, 'misadventure,' non-dependent drug use and an 'open verdict.'" • Miley Cyrus's wax figure at Madam Tussaud's is surprisingly lifelike.

She seems fairly deranged, but I think that's the point? I'll just try not to think of what an actual actress could have done with the part and move on from there.
I did a marathon of HIMYM this week to make sure I was caught up in time for Britney on Monday. After last night's South Park and a decent looking turn in a hit show, maybe people will really take the hint and leave her alone to get well. Maybe. ?
Can someone explain what "misadventure" means in the context of causes of death? It sounds like part of the plot to a movie. "Jessica Simpson and her 'little sis' Miley Cyrus are trying to find their long-lost parents, but end up in a series of hilarious misadventures while doing some sisterly bonding along the way."
She was actually better on Will and Grace. "I'm into leather play, butch black girls, skunkin', pulling the blinds, and poodle ballin', whatever you got I'll eat it, snort it, or ride it baby!"
That reminds me, my purple drank awaits.
@misssgolightly: Totally. A misadventure is, say, stumbling upon an ancient Incan treasure on your way to a Cancun beach -- you know, like the Brady Bunch would. It is NOT an accidental overdose of 40 kinds of pills given to you by your creepy stepfather.
Come Britney, you are making progress.
It's almost like training a puppy, I think. But instead of Scooby Snacks, every time Brit does something good, she can have a frappuchino.
I remember when she was on Sabrina the Teenage Witch and she did like a private concert for Sabrina.
@JessicaLovejoy: Backstairsly: Please to explain "poodle balling." If it doesn't exist, please provide a lurid definition.
@JessicaLovejoy: Backstairsly: I forgot she was on Will and Grace. I am gonna have to go youtube it.
@misssgolightly: It basically is a way of saying it was an accident. Usually pertaining to some kind of reckless behavior. Overdosing, getting drunk and falling over a balcony etc.
@kitschenette: Oh! Here it is! I totally had her blue and silver Skechers sneakers in 9th grade.
+ Watch video
pet peeve: too much laugh track. trust your audience, people!
@kitschenette: oh, sigh: "sometimes that's the loneliest place to be." so tragic!
@jenndavo: Once I get to the bottom of this cup o DRANK, I'm quite sure I'll come up with something.
@atalanta: I'm so jealous of your weekend.
@fulana.de.tal: I know, it's so...prophetic.
@jenndavo: I'm nerdy, so I'm going to correct myself. The Mayans lived in the Cancun area, not the Incas.
@JessicaLovejoy: Backstairsly: I was afraid to Google it at work.
@JessicaLovejoy: Backstairsly: YEs! she was hilarious as Amber Louise- the closeted Lesbian republican talkshow host. an i still use the word poodleballin' quite often (although I am not sure what it means). She looks really pretty in the video clips, hopefully she'll hire the HIMYM makeup and hair staff to style her full-time.
@Cfredl54:
+ Watch video
a quick google search doesn't give us any real answers on poodleballing, although it might mean using anal beads, or a style of pruning shrubbery. But skunking is apparently a threesome with two black girls and one white girl. Sounds like good times!
Did anyone see the South Park episode last night about Britney Spears?
At the end they mentioned Hanna Montana as the next to suffer from the same fame and shame as Britney.
@Miss Smith Drank Your Vodka: I saw a still from that episode -- it looked like Brit was squatting and peeing in public. I thought, "Hmm. Not for me." Does it get any better after that, or is that the extent of their commentary?
@Cfredl54: Urban Dictionary claims that "poodleballing" is an act where a rich, old guy seeks sex with young folks. The site has too many different definitions for "skunking."
@jenndavo: It did get better...it wasn't really a funny episode, but I think that was the point. The whole thing was that Britney shot herself, lost the top half of her head, and people kept focusing on her being "fat" and having camel toe. They tried to take her to the North Pole to get away from everyone, and it ended up in some Wicker Man-type homage.
@amandahugnkiss: Damn, dude, those guys are always killing people in horrible ways. I'm still mad about Strawberry Shortcake's treatment in that "Imaginationland" episode.
@jenndavo: The South Park episode is so worth your time. I think once people watch it, they will realize that it would be actually a good idea to leave Britney alone. Chris Crocker only wishes he were that eloquent.
@amandahugnkiss: I think South Park was referencing ""The Lottery," a short story by Shirley Jackson. The episode may have referenced The Wicker Man, too. I've never seen the film.
It's kind of nice to see Britney smiling and looking healthy, instead of angry, bald, and disoriented. Maybe she has finally turned things around. You go, girl.
meebo jezebel chat everyone! [www.meebo.com]
That's funny, smart and great!
My heart is filled with (secret) joy at the fact that she did an actually funny job, at least from those two clips. I laughed. But that's because the 8th grader in me wants Britney to succeed...and wants Backstreet Boys to release another album at the EXACT SAME TIME as NSYNC. Dramaaaa!
I liked Britney as Dawn, the kicked-out Mouseketeer on SNl:
Tom Wilkins: Fair Enough. Alright. Now Dawn, you were a Mouseketeer for only 4 days. What the heck happened?
Dawn Paslowsky: Yo, Disney is Wack! I mean, they made me cover my tattoos, take out my piercins, and they tried to confiscate my box cutter. They tried to turn me into somethin' I aint, and I don't front. I don't front.
Tom Wilkins: She does not front, so don't ask her.
Dawn Paslowsky: See, and from the beginning, I knew they was out to get me, and I don't play like that. I don't front.
Cass van Rye: Gang, she's putting the foot down on the fronting.
Dawn Paslowsky: I mean, I told her to step off and she was like, "What?" and I was like, "No, you don't" and she was like, "Huh?" and I was like, "Uh-uh" and and then I set her hair on fire. You see her hair now? She's wearin' a wig.
Cass van Rye: Tough Cookie! Like PM Dawn!
Tom Wilkins: Red Dawn!
Cass van Rye: Yeah, Dawn cuts the grease!
Tom Wilkins: Here comes confrontation.. [ raises his hand next to Cass' head ] ..and here comes Dawn. [ smacks hand into other hand, and also into Cass' head ]
Why does she get a wax figure?
Besides making little girls and tweens self-conscious of their bodies and appearance to other people?
Thank Heavens! A Britney news that didn't leave me depressed afterwards! This "Britney" video shows she's going to be fine!
Britney was in character by acting slightly deranged! She an ok actress... I'm rooting for her.. The latest South park episode on Brit. left me quite depressed...
Yeah, I liked Britney in that HIMYM clip. She looked sort of cute and goofy in a good way.
Now that we have seen so many clips of Britney on this HIMYM episode, I feel like I can skip it when it actually airs... It's just like when the movie previews show you all the funny parts, leaving the actual movie to simply disappoint you!
