We may have the answer to everyone’s burning Britney question… Who takes care of her kids while she’s out drinking, partying, and shaving her head? According to Us Magazine, it may be K-Fed that’s watching sons Sean Preston (17 months) and Jayden James (5 months) while Britney spins out of control.

With help from his mother, and Spears’ mother Lynne, Kevin Federline has stepped up to the plate and has cared for his sons during their mother’s recent rehab stints, partying and hotel stays, Us magazine reports.
TMZ has also reported that Kevin is even going as far as taking the necessary legal steps to secure his sons. He has requested an emergency custody hearing Thursday morning before an LA judge. Federlines representitives could not be reached for a comment.
Usmagazine.com has learned that, “Britney’s family feels that Kevin has been a blessing and they are very impressed with Kevin taking so much responsibility,” says a Spears family source. “Britney’s family found out from the news this morning that Britney had left the rehab. Britney has not asked to see the kids because she knows she is not well and she does not want to scare Preston. She has no credit cards or cash. She is basically on the run at the moment.”

The family of a woman who died two years ago is suing Michael Jackson and a California hospital, claiming the gravely ill patient was moved to make room for the pop star when he arrived with flu symptoms.The complaint was filed against Jackson and Marian Medical Center on the second anniversary of the death of 73-year-old Manuela Gomez Ruiz.
The family had previously complained publicly that Ruiz, who had suffered a heart attack and was on life support, was suddenly moved to make way for Jackson, whose admission to the hospital caused cancellation of a court session in his child molestation trial.
Ruiz suffered a second heart attack and died later that day.
A statement from the hospital said the suit is a “frivolous claim to generate publicity.”
Expressing sympathy for the Ruiz family’s loss, the statement added, “Patient care and safety is always our priority” and expressed confidence that Ruiz received exceptional care.
Jackson spokeswoman Raymone K. Bain was not available for comment.
Lawyer James McKiernan of San Luis Obispo, who filed the suit, said that a circus-like atmosphere at the hospital due to Jackson’s arrival caused “emotional and mental lasting effects” on the Ruiz family.
“Manuela Ruiz was dying,” the suit said.
“Michael Jackson was also dying … dying not to go to court that day.”
The pop star was later acquitted of the child molestation charges.
Two years to file a law suit? Wouldn’t you put “take legal action” somewhere at the top of your to-do list? Atleast I don’t feel so bad about my laundry piling up anymore…
