All Spears, All the Time...


JAMIE LYNN SPEARS somehow managed to overshadow her big sister, BRITNEY SPEARS, earlier this week, when her pregnancy was revealed.The 16-year-old actress is expecting her first child with 19-year-old boyfriend CASEY ALDRIDGE, surprising many of her fans. JOY FALLICK, a Long Island, New York, mother of a Jamie Lynn fan, believes the Nickelodeon star should act as a role model to her young audience. Nevertheless, child psychiatrist Dr. CHARLES SOPHY says Jamie Lynn's story should promote dialogue between parents and their children.


Speaking to OK! magazine, Jamie Lynn said her mother, LYNNE, is now supportive of her after breaking the news just before Thanksgiving. Her dad, also named JAMIE, isn't quite as understanding, though. According to Us Weekly, he's "furious" with the two women for selling their story, and according to a source, quote, "feels Jamie Lynn ruined her life." TMZ.com reports that Jamie Lynn and her mom weren't seeking money for their deal with OK!, but Britney's sis will receive one million dollars for a photo shoot once she gives birth.


Britney herself has kept her sense of humor through it all. She reportedly told paparazzi while shopping Tuesday night, quote, "My sister's not pregnant!" A source tells TMZ that the pop star was just being sarcastic.


Jamie Lynn's pregnancy shouldn't interfere with her Nickelodeon show, Zoey 101 -- the series reportedly completed production on its final season in September. However, MICHELLE TAUBER of People magazine says some readers of her publication want a special "wrap-up" episode of Zoey 101, currently scheduled to air next month, to be cancelled.
