Christmas Comes Early at the Spears House

If Sean Preston and Jayden James Federline believed in Santa Claus before this year, their mom, Britney Spears, put an end to that.

Instead of counting on the Jolly Fat Man to bring the kids gifts, the "Circus" singer took them on a shopping spree where they pointed to the toys they wanted, and Mom's American Express Black Card delivered them down the Chimney.

What would the boys do without life-sized, human toy soldiers to play G.I. Joe with at home, K-Fed has a lot to live up to during Christmas at Dad's house...

The kiddies sure are cuties, though. Click the photos below to see more of Jayden James and Sean Preston Federline's shopping spree:

Britney Spears Takes “Circus” to Good Morning America

The incomparable Britney Spears celebrated her 27th birthday Tuesday morning under the big top - and before the TV cameras - on ABC's Good Morning America.

Dressed as a (sexy!) ringmaster, our girl made a dramatic entrance atop a huge wagon, flanked by clowns, jugglers and performers dressed as circus animals.

In her first live effort in over a year, Britney Spears brought her A-game, lip-synching her way through the title track to her new album, Circus, with flying colors ...

Britney Spears: Not Really For the Record

On the eve of the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, Britney Spears invited a film crew into her life. The film you are about to see was captured over the 60 days that followed. No topic was off limits. No question went unanswered.

MTV's feature film (we can't call it a documentary with a straight face) For the Record, which was supposed to examine everything in the life of Britney Spears, began with these words. Only it appears many things were in fact off limits.

Conveniently glossed over were her being placed on a 5150 hold, wearing no pants to clubs, hangin' with Sam Lutfi, railing Adnan Ghalib, being strapped to a gurney (twice!) and placed under a conservatorship, among other things.

We're not saying Brit must relive the past and pay for her mistakes forever. She should be allowed to move on. But come on, the people want to know about those things!

Moreover, why market this as a frickin' tell-all? If it's just behind-the-scenes footage of papa Jamie Spears cookin', well ... that's kinda cool. If presented as such. It's not.

Disappointing. Here's part one of For the Record ...

And the Most Searched-For Celebrity of 2008 is …

One of these celebrities was the most-searched person, and overall term, in 2008, according to some site called Yahoo! Who do you think it was?

All were in the news a fair amount, but the answer may surprise you. Find out who was #1 - and how the year's top 10 shaped up - by following the jump ...

It's Britney Spears! Did you guess right?

President-Elect Barack Obama (#3) bested the Clintons and the extreme right, but even he could not dethrone Britney. The WWE (#2) was also too much for our next Chief Executive. He did top ever-present Miley Cyrus, who came in at #4.

It's impressive that Britney Spears was first in searches despite a fairly low-key year overall. Then again, the previous year and the first month of '08 - when she was hospitalized twice and dated Adnan Ghalib - certainly contributed.

Here's the full top 10, according to Yahoo ...

1. Britney Spears
2. WWE
3. Barack Obama
4. Miley Cyrus
5. RuneScape
6. Jessica Alba
7. Naruto
8. Lindsay Lohan
9. Angelina Jolie
10. American Idol

Britney Spears: Glamour Girl

In January's Glamour, Britney Spears opens up about the past year - "it has been a hell of a year for me," she says - her new album Circus and her future.

Recording Circus - which drops Tuesday on her 27th birthday - "has helped take my mind off certain things," she says. "For me, my music is therapy."

The star - who made her first live performance Wednesday in Germany since her 2007 MTV Video Music Awards disaster - is feelin' the love these days.

"When I received the awards and the audience stood for me, it showed me how much love is out there," says Spears, who swept the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards.

Britney, who was notorious for hitting Hollywood hot spots with no underwear for awhile, says her life has become a lot calmer these days.

"I don't like going out. I hate clubs. I hate being around too many people," the singer tells Glamour. "I love my home and staying in my bed and watching Dancing With the Stars or reading a Danielle Steel novel. I'm kind of boring."

On her post-babies body, Spears says, "My body... completely changed [after giving birth], and I have had to work hard at getting it back."
