Britney Cuts Ties with Old Acquaintances

Attorneys for Britney Spears filed a petition for a restraining order on Friday (January 30), to be brought against her former manager Sam Lutfi and ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib.

Both were involved with Spears during her infamous breakdown, and have kept their distance since the pop star began to turn her life back around.

Los Angeles Superior Court public information officer Vania Stuelp told E! News that although the restraining order papers have been filed, the judge wants to review the documents prior to making them public.

Ashlee Simpson Preggers Breakdown?

Ashlee Simpson has denied a report from a U.S. tabloid that claimed she was in tears over gaining weight due to her pregnancy, “People who talk and judge pregnant women’s weight need to get a life!!!”

A ’source’ told The National Enquirer, “Ashlee broke down in tears at a doctor’s appointment in early August when she found out she’s gained more weight than is considered in the healthy range.

“She went straight to the Planet Blue shop in Los Angeles and bought six pairs of size zero jeans. She can’t wear them now, but she hopes it will give her the incentive to watch what she eats.”

Simpson posted a message on her MySpace on Friday (August 29) denying the story:

“My size 0 jeans…by Ashlee SImpson-Wentz


Today I read on a blog that I went to the doctor and he said I was overweight and I cried and went to Planet Blue (because I was blue) and bought 6 pair of size 0 jeans. Now it is ridiculous to read such nonsense about oneself so I thought I would address this one…
1. My doctor says I am right on target with my weight gain
2. Have not been to Planet Blue in at least two years
3. Love my maternity jeans ..they have stretchy tops it is awesome!
4. My closet full of size 0’s are being worn by Pete right now and he looks hot in them
So now that I have cleared that up let me tell you…carrying a child is the most inspiring, emotional, amazing experience of my life. My weight and my pant size are the absolute last thing I am concerned about. I am only concerned with having a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. People who talk and judge pregnant women’s weight need to get a life!!!
Peace and Love,
Ashlee”
