Sad but true story.

Britney Spears‘ mother, Lynne, killed a 12-year-old child in an accident when she was just 20-years-old.

Anthony Winters was killed after Lynne rounded a corner in her hometown of Kentwood, Louisiana striking the boy who was riding a bike with friends in the street. There was oncoming traffic and Lynne could not stop her car in time. She had been on her way to the hospital, taking her brother there for an injury.

Spears’ publicist, Louise Taylor, confirmed the National Enquirer article saying that Lynne is understandably still haunted by the incident and has tried to keep the tragedy out of the papers.

She added, “The boy died at the hospital as a result of his injuries. Lynne, to this day, is grieved by the Winters’ loss of their son.”

Fleetwood Mac drummer Mick Fleetwood’s daughter was involved in a pool accident Friday causing her to nearly drown.

The six-year-old was doing cartwheels by the pool when she hit her head and landed in the water.

Paramedics had to revive her in the ambulance.

She is doing fine now and has fully recovered from the incident.

Drew Barrymore was rear-ended just before noon yesterday while driving in West Hollywood.

The driver of the vehicle who hit her immediately fled the scene. Drew attempted to follow the jerk-off, but he/she managed to get away. However, it won’t be long before the bastard is caught. Drew got the license plate number!

Har-har!

Sandra Bullock and husband Jesse James were hit by a drunk driver Friday night.

The couple were being driven home Friday at approximately 9:50pm when they were hit head-on by a drunk driver in Gloucester, Massachusetts.

Lucille Gatchell, 64, of Gloucester, was driving a gray Subaru station wagon when she crossed the center lane, hitting the couple’s vehicle.

Luckily no one was injured.

Gloucester Police Lt. Gerry Cook told People magazine, “They were shaken up, needless to say.  But they were fine – he was hugging her. Jess and Sandra were hugging. They said they were fine, they didn’t need medical attention. There were quite a few people snapping pictures of them.”

After Gatchell was told who she had hit Lt. Cook said, “She started laughing, she was really giddy.”

Gatchell’s blood alcohol level registered .20 on the breathalyzer.  She was arrested and booked for DUI then released on her own recognizance.  Her arraignment is Tuesday.

Even though William Shatner was involved in a motorcycle accident years ago he still refuses to wear protective gear while riding his motorcycle.

“I think leather, and helmets and protective gear is foolish, in the hot California weather. I ride with sandals and shorts and a t-shirt.”

Shatner recalls laying his bike down and narrowly escaping injury.

“One time, I was driving along and the bike slide from under me, and I skidded across the two lane highway. I grabbed the bike hauled it up and got back on. I had to get to Los Angeles. I had a doll to take to my grandchild. I got back on the bike and my clothes are shredded. I realized I’m bleeding.”

He says that as he tried to collect himself people driving by recognized him and some even called out to him through their car windows.

“People are driving up and college kids are yelling at me. Finally they uttered the ultimate insult, ‘Beam me up Scotty,’ so I gave them the finger.”

The Shatner don’t take no shat.

Britney Spears was involved in a minor fender bender on Saturday that involved three vehicles.

Britney was driving northbound on the 405 connector to the 101 freeway when she rear ended a Nissan at a low rate of speed, which, in turn, also hit the car in front of it.

Statement from the accident report: “The collision occurred when the driver of the Mercedes, driving in the #3 lane, in stop and go traffic failed to observe the vehicle directly ahead of her come to a complete stop. She attempted to brake but failed to stop her vehicle prior to colliding into the rear of the Nissan [in front of her].”

The man who Britney hit says that he saw Britney applying makeup moments before the impact.

No injuries were initially reported but TMZ is saying that the guy in the Nissan has complained of a sore back Sunday.
