Britney Spears says she gave sons 'so much attention

Britney Spears says she gave sons 'so much attention, it was pathetic' that she's 'not willing' to see them Sep 11, 2022 In a series of audio posts shared to her Instagram, Britney Spears discussed the messy relationship she has with sons Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden James, 15, boldly claiming she will not see them until she feels valued. In an explosive interview with Australia's "60 Minutes," Jayden discussed his rocky relationship with his mother, much to the dismay of Spears. Spears can be heard saying in an Instagram, "With my kids now, making the claims that ‘She’s not good enough. She wants attention,' Yah, I do want to be heard, and I'm angry. And I kind of subconsciously want to offend people because I've been so f-----g offended." She then says directly to her two sons, who she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline, "But I'm afraid to inform you guys, I'm not willing to see you until I feel valued." Spears would later share that she was "told you guys have blocked me," of Sean and Jayden. BRITNEY SPEARS' SON BREAKS SILENCE ON THEIR RELATIONSHIP: 'I JUST WANT HER TO GET BETTER The "Oops!…I Did It Again" singer went into detail about her previous habits as a mother, saying, "I was desperate to see you guys, and I wanted to see you guys so bad, but honestly I should have valued myself way more and told you guys when I was available." In what was likely her most jarring statement, Spears said of her sons, "I gave you guys so much attention, it was pathetic." Despite an adamant attitude to not see her children, Spears went on to later apologize to her sons for telling them something religion-related that should have been shared with her estranged father, Jamie. The seemingly bizarre series of posts did highlight Spears pain, however, as she shared her heartbreak over the estrangement with her two children. "Since they've been gone, I've honestly felt like a huge part of me has died… Like literally I have no purpose anymore." CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTER Spears continued, saying, "They were my joy, they were my everything. I look forward to seeing them – that was what I lived for. And then all of a sudden, they were gone….And I was like, ‘Did my heart just stop beating?’ And honestly – I don't understand how it's so easy for them – just to cut me off like that?" A representative for Spears and Federline did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. peliculas Restaurant's attempt to honor 9/11 victims angers some customers Sep 11, 2022 A Virginia restaurant’s attempt to honor the victims of 9/11 backfired when some slammed the restaurant's 9/11-themed seafood menu as offensive. "My intention was to bring attention to that horrific day 21 years ago," George White, a manager at The Clubhouse at Aquia Harbour in Stafford County, wrote in a Facebook post apologizing for the menu, ABC 7 reported. "To honor those who lost so much as well as those who gave everything that day." "I apologize for those I offended with the 9/11 seafood Sunday post," the post added.  The Clubhouse at Aquia Harbour, which is located about an hour outside of Washington, D.C., released the 9/11-themed seafood menu last week, which included meals titled "First Responder Flatbread," "9-11 Oysters" and "Flight 93 Redirect" crab dip.

I don’t know," Jackie Adams told Fox 5.  ON 9/11 ANNIVERSARY, FAITH LEADERS NATIONWIDE OFFER PRAYERS, COMFORT AND HOPE FOR OUR COUNTRY "It’s a time for remembrance and reflection, and I don’t know if that menu depicted that type of situation," Jeff Gibson added.  Others said they’re not sure why there’s outrage over the menu.  HILLARY CLINTON SAYS 9/11 A REMINDER US MUST ‘DEAL WITH EXTREMISM OF ANY KIND’ "I just don’t see why people would want to call it disrespectful," a person at a nearby grocery store, Chris Campbell, told Fox 5.  The menu was replaced by a "Seafood Sunday" menu, with football-themed meals, such as "Offense Oysters," "Fumble Flounder" and "Field Gold Flatbread."

Nebraska athletics director Trev Alberts made the announcement in a statement. "Earlier today I met with Coach Frost and informed him we were making a change in the leadership of our football program, effective immediately," the statement read. "Scott has poured his heart and soul into the Nebraska football program both as a quarterback and head coach, and I appreciate his work and dedication.

He never had a winning season with the Cornhuskers and never made a bowl game with any team.

Lumumba appeared on CBS' "Face the Nation" Sunday.  He added that a "coordinated effort" is needed to end the water crisis.  "When can your residents turn on the faucet and not have to worry?" show host Margaret Brennan asked.  JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, WATER CRISIS IMPACTS BUSINESSES "All residents have had water pressure restored to them, they have yet to have the boil water notice lifted and so there are still concerns around the consumption of that water," Lumumba responded, according to an online interview transcript. "Right now, as many repairs and adjustments are taking place. In the triage period of where we are at the water treatment facility. There's also investigatory sampling taking place. And so we believe that it's a matter of days, not weeks before that boil water notice can be lifted." Jackson’s main water-treatment plant malfunctioned in late August after torrential rain caused flooding along the Pearl River. The influx altered the quality of the raw water entering the plant from a reservoir. That slowed the treatment process, depleted supplies in water tanks and caused a dangerous drop in pressure. But even before the rainfall, officials said some water pumps had failed, and a treatment plant was using backup pumps. A rental pump was installed last week, and the system’s water pressure is back to normal. JACKSON, MISSISSIPPI, WATER PRESSURE IS RESTORED TO 'NORMAL' FOR MOST RESIDENTS "In March 2021, federal government sent $42 million directly to the city as part of the American Rescue Plan," Brennan said. "Where's the money?" "We have committed the grand majority of our ARPA funds towards our infrastructure, not only at the water treatment facility, but - but distribution lines. We've spent $8 million on one pipe alone to South Jackson, which is disproportionately affected." Lumumba answered. He added it is critical for people to know the city didn't get $42 million at one time, and got a "second tranche" of the funds merely a little over a month ago. "However, it is insufficient to meet the great need of 30 years of deferred maintenance and accumulated challenges. And so it will take a coordinated effort on not only the local state, but federal levels as well," he said.  The Associated Press contributed to this report.  peliculas Mosquito Fire in California spreads to over 41,400 acres, forces thousands to evacuate Sep 11, 2022 A wildfire scorching two counties in California has burned more than 41,400 acres and is threatening thousands of homes and structures, officials said Sunday.

Now that correspondence, and another, have been found at a Goodwill store in Bellevue, Kentucky. They were inside a box donated to the store over Labor Day weekend. "I was very glad to receive your letter before I leave here, not that I know where or when I'm going," one letter from Illinois in 1942 said, according to WLWT. The other was sent Jan. 27, 1943, while Ballantine was at sea.

Both were reportedly sent to a post office box, addressed to Elizabeth W. Smith. LARGEST D-DAY REENACTMENT IN THE US DRAWS THOUSANDS TO OHIO TOWN Michael Flannery, a representative for Goodwill, told WLWT that Ballantine's ship, the USS LST-385, "was part of D-Day." Goodwill is trying to track down Ballantine's family. "Something like this, the family would want," Flannery said. "You'd want the grandson to be able to hold his grandfather's letter and read his words." peliculas Bears, 49ers plagued with sloppy conditions as torrential rain slams Chicago Sep 11, 2022 Terrible weather was an understatement for the start of the first game of the 2022 NFL season between the Chicago Bears and San Francisco 49ers on Sunday at Soldier Field.

It’s amplified because it is 9/11 in this city," Saleh said earlier this week. "Not so much for me, but for the people who are in the thick of it. Obviously, I know it’s documented about my brother, but I heard stories this week about the cars being at (the Meadowlands) for months afterward because no one could pick them up. And then the Long Island train stations and the tragedies that led up to this." Saleh was 22 and working in Detroit’s financial district when the terrorist attack occurred. He and his family agonizingly waited for David to call to make sure they knew he was OK. VP HARRIS BLAMES GOP ‘ELECTION DENIERS’ FOR MAKING US DEMOCRACY 'WEAKER' THROUGH 'THREATS FROM WITHIN' "I think it’s very personal for a lot of people and I think that passion is felt country-wide, not just in New York," Saleh added.

"That’s why I think that’s what’s going to make Sunday pretty cool." New York was set to play the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1. The Jets weren’t the only ones to recognize and remember the tragic day. NFL teams also posted tributes on social media.

"If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't have this opportunity to speak the way we do and remember our loved ones," the man said of Wolfgruber. "Everyone in front of us is a new family. It took a tragedy to create this new family." VP HARRIS BLAMES GOP ‘ELECTION DENIERS’ FOR MAKING US DEMOCRACY ‘WEAKER’ THROUGH ‘THREATS FROM WITHIN’  "I want to remind everyone over there our politicians and elected leaders surrounded by a border right now," the man continued, referencing the cordoned off area where politicians were standing. "It took a tragedy to unite our country. Back then, no one cared if you were a Republican, Democrat, age, gender, race, ethnicity. We were united. It took a tragedy to unite us."  The camera panned to where Vice President Kamala Harris was standing. Next to her husband, Doug Emhoff, she applauded. New York City Mayor Eric Adams looked on solemnly, as did former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg. NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewell was also visible in frame.  "And I want to remind all of you there. It should not take another tragedy to unite our nation, because if I have to stand at this podium again or another podium for another event because of lives lost, because of dereliction of duty, it's going to hurt just like it hurts me," the man added, garnering applause from the crowd. "I want to thank everyone for being here, and I'm going to continue doing this until the day that I die. And I'm joined with my family up there. God bless America. Thank you." Sunday marks the 21st anniversary of the September 11, 2001, attacks when al-Qaeda terrorists flew hijacked commercial airplanes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, killing nearly 3,000 people. The U.S. and its allies responded by launching the Afghanistan war. President Biden marked the one-year anniversary of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan late last month in low-key fashion. He campaigned on bringing troops home from what was the U.S.’s longest conflict, but the war chaotically concluded in August 2021 when the government collapsed, and a grisly bombing killed 170 Afghans and 13 U.S. troops at Kabul's airport.  The Associated Press contributed to this report.  peliculas
