Hit Me (With a New Religion) Baby One More Time

Just in case you think CK got everything with his Kabbalah Roundup earlier this week...

Britneysp_2 Born Baptist. Dabbled with Kabbalah sprinkled over a nice big bowl of Cheetos. Now, because "cows are holy, y'all,"* the princess of pop's hailing the Hindus.

In a stunning example of reporting none of us should care about, MSNBC offers the following (article reproduced in its entirety because abridging it would cause the piece to just read "Britney":

Britney Spears is covering all her religious bases.The singer — who was raised a Baptist and has famously studied Kabbalah, a branch of Jewish mysticism — now is apparently dabbling in Hinduism. The “Oops, I Did It Again” crooner [Crooner? on what tone-deaf, American-Idol-audition of a planet is Brit a crooner?-edk] was spotted at a Hindu temple in Malibu, where she reportedly was getting a blessing for her baby son, Sean Preston.

“Apparently, Ms. Spears can’t make up her mind which tune to dance to,” Rick Ross of Cultnews.com tells The Scoop. “I’m sure her mentor [and Kabbalah enthusiast] Madonna will not be amused.”

And you wouldn't want to see Madonna when she's angry. (Because when she's angry, she raps. And that's good for no one.)

Bet on Britney's next religion here. Will it be:

a) Zoroastrianism
b) Scientology
c) The Self-Worshiping Cult of Celebrity (which may also include Scientology)
d) Blogging

Guess correctly and win a prize. And it's not a copy of the Zohar...

*Not a real quote. As if you didn't know that.

I vote c. I'd say d, but I don't think she exactly writes those updates to her website.

Here's my vote: http://jubal.westnet.com/hyperdiscordia/sacred_heart_elvis.html

Have a happy cruise!

Yeah, saw the cover of People and there's Britney and baby and the Britster's got what looks like red jelly slapped all over her face (or a gun-shot wound to the forehead). But, no, the innards of People tell me that Britney's got a bindi and baby must have smushed it around some.

Bet on Britney's next religion Will it be:
a) Zoroastrianism
b) Scientology
c) The Self-Worshiping Cult of Celebrity (which may also include Scientology)
d) Blogging
---------
e) Worshipping your belly button. Simcha
