Britney Spears has helped husband Kevin Federline multiply and replenish the earth. Again.

The "...Baby One More Time" singer gave birth to a baby boy Wednesday afternoon in Los Angeles. The child is Spears' first; Federline's third. He has two young children from his previous relationship with actress
Shar Jackson.

According to U.K.'s Sky News, Spears was considering naming her and Federline's child London, after the British capital where their romance blossomed. Us Weekly's sources had the singer set on Preston Michael Spears Federline. Spears' publicist had no official confirmation.

The 23-year-old Spears recently told Elle that she considered pregnancy "mindblowing." "And therapeutic--all the secrets from your family come of the closet," she said.

One aspect of the life cycle Spears was not looking forward to was the business of labor. Saying she didn't "want to go through pain," the pop star told the magazine, "I have a feeling I'm going to have an operation [a Caesarian section]. I don't know why, but I hope so."

Per reports, Spears' dream came true. The entertainer, accompanied by Federline, checked into an L.A. hospital about 6 a.m. to undergo a C-section.

Througout Wednesday, the tabloids and glossies jostled with each other over the baby story--treating the birth like hard-news outlets treat election night, with each seeking to be the first to call it.

The National Enquirer was first out of the gate at about 9 a.m. with news of Spears begin admitted to the hospital for a C-section. Life & Style followed with a press release outlining alleged complications. Us trumped everyone with a press release announcing the birth; the magazine sent out the alert at 1:30 p.m.--just a half-hour after Baby Spears made his debut.

Spears and Federline, a 27-year-old former backup dancer, wed last year, only months removed from Spears' 55-hour marriage to childhood friend Jason Allen Alexander, and the birth of Federline's second child with Jackson.

In the wake of her marriage, Spears, a media magnet since the age of 17, split with her longtime manager, declared her intention "to just chill," put down roots in a $6.9 million Malibu mansion and talked about her desire to start a family.

Spears and Federline confirmed the "wonderful news" of their pregnancy in April. Days later, the duo launched another joint production: Britney & Kevin: Chaotic, their little-watched UPN reality series.

The arrival of Spears' baby nearly coincides with Thursday's launch of Spears' new fragrance. In a note to fans, the singer described Fantasy Britney Spears as a "completely magical" blend of "enchanting scents and flavors," with "a hint of cupcakes."

News outlets are reporting that pop star and sometimes actress Britney Spears has given birth to a baby boy. Early today, both the National Enquirer and Radar magazine posted on their respective web sites that Spears, 23, had checked into the Santa Monica UCLA Medical Center at 6 am for a caesarian section, accompanied by husband Kevin Federline. Us Weekly later confirmed the impending arrival, stating that Spears gave birth shortly before 1pm; they also reported that the star received a police escort to the hospital. According to the magazine, Spears had reportedly experienced early labor contractions on September 9, and had spent the past few days in a state of extreme discomfort. Although no official statement has been issued, Us Weekly also cited sources who said the baby boy would be named Preston Michael Spears Federline. It's the first child for Spears and the third for Federline, who has two children from a previous relationship with actress Shar Jackson. --Prepared by IMDb staff

Good for them.

Dean Winchester · 09-14-2005, 08:24 PM

I sense the "new Madonna" is not gonna happen for Britney. Madonna was older, wiser and settled down and had accomplished everything she had set out to do when she gave birth. I highly doubt Britney is going to live up to the "new Madonna" expectations with child in hand, unless she's gonna go the Cher route and suddenly be a wild child when the kids are high school age, lol.

I thought I felt a slight disturbance in the force this afternoon...

I doubt she ever wanted to be the "new Madonna."

I'm so happy for Britney! ...and Kevin? Sorry, I'm still iffy on those two as a couple.

Nonetheless, I think this is some great news. Congrats to Britney and Kevin!

true, but media has been comparing her as "the new Madonna" since her first album hit. I honestly think this might be it for her career, I don't think people will be as embracive of "Soccer mom Britney" like they were with Celine. I don't think people will buy her singing lullabyes to her son.
