According to the new issue of Life & Style magazine, Britney Spears has "fallen hard" for musician Howie Day, whom she met while the two were both at the Promises rehab center in Malibu. If you're keeping tabs, Day is the second rehab musician Spears has been linked to--Jason Filyaw of the rock band Riva was rumored to have been tapping that ass in February. Life & Style is also reporting that Day will accompany Spears to her cousin Erin's wedding on June 2. A "family insider" says:
"Britney just lights up and seems back to her old self when she talks to Howie or tells people about him," an "insider" tells the mag. "She thinks he's very talented - and says he's the best kisser ever!" (Source)
Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. According to this miniature trophy sitting on my desk, I'm the "Best Kisser Ever." It's my second favorite possession next to the coffee mug proclaiming me "World's Best Son 1996." Thanks Mom (for both of them)!
The "family insider" also reveals that Britney's mom, Lynne, is less than thrilled with Britney's new man, who has been arrested twice and was only in rehab because a judge ordered him to be there:
"Lynne wants Britney to be with someone outside the music industry. Howie is always on the road and exposed to influences that are discouraged in rehab."
Isn't this backwards--shouldn't Howie's mom be the one expressing concern? I mean, just because Britney wasn't arrested a few months ago doesn't mean that homeless guy wasn't beaten with the fireplace poker. His emotional scars can attest to that.
