Britney Spears adopting Chinese twins?
Categories: Celeb kids, Celeb parenting, Rumors
This sounds like a story invented to sell papers, but with Britney Spears, you just never know. The British tabloid News of the World reports that the beleaguered pop star is planning to adopt 6-year-old twins from China. The Rav Showbiz column reports that she isn't just wishing for new children, she's actually in the final stages of talks with the adoption agency and the process is moving forward. Why on earth would the party girl who can't properly care for her own children want more? According to the article, she is trying to fill the void left after losing custody of Sean Preston and Jayden James. I thought that was why she got the new goldfish.
And if that didn't sound crazy enough, the paper also claims that Spears has made a down payment on her own funeral.
Even it if were true that Spears is longing for more children, I cannot imagine that she would be allowed to adopt. And the funeral business? That's actually a little disturbing. You know, I really do feel sorry for this girl.

This one is so silly that I giggled a bit when I read it. She doesn't meet China's criteria on several levels (too young, single, etc) not to mention the fact that I can't imagine she could pass a homestudy.

Yeah, and if she was in the final stages she would have had to start before her kids were even born.

A friend of mine adopted two children from China, and she was telling me just last week that China has closed all adoptions for a while. So I'm inclined to think this is the usual attention-seeking noise.

I would be shocked if she were allowed to adopt. Regardless, from the posts above it seems as if the whole thing is a sham for attention.

I have to agree with everyone else - I approve international adoption petitions as part of my job and we would *never* approve one for her (drugs and alcohol are the first things that come to mind, plus I can't imagine she could get a favorable homestudy.)
