Their lives are more interesting than their shows...
Oh wait...I'd tap that.

nvm
Don't care, she's just a person like anyone else and this happens all the time.
Man Marcus, what is up with you and POP CULTURE. You're always the first one to post this shit.
PS, just because both britney is fucked and jamie lynn is pregnant doesn't mean their mom didn't raise them well. It didn't help them much both being surrounded by media CONSTANTLY almost their entire lives. How the fuck do you raise someone well in a situation like that?
The only reason I have beef with this is because some of my younger familiar members look up to these people.
Is it gay that I watch iCarkly and Drake and Josh? Not like, "omg it's on in an hour" but like, but like, "oh this show is on I like it!
Your average person probably doesn't have the money to say "Ah well it's not such a big deal". For a lot of people it would mean financial/moral crisis but for young Jamie Lynn she's in no trouble. At the moment she's being publicised as a stupid girl, in 9 months she'll be publicised as a MILF.
Wouldnt it have been easier to just, yknow, get an abortion?
Not that i know any of the laws where she lives.
Plus, church.
Ah well, jokes on her really.
Why is it that some people think that getting pregnant young like that always require mandatory abortion?
Because raising a child means devoting your time to, you know, raising a child and if you're not capable of doing so whether because of work obligations or monetary reasons it's ultimately better to get an abortion than raise a child in a terrible environment.
What terrible environment? She doesn't live in Uganda or anything like that. There are people who are born in far worse conditions and are now very well. But whatever some people just have a bad personality and even if they're financially stable etc they become bad parents anyway.

Our society puts too much focus on celebrities and not enough on what is actual news.
You mean rampant poverty we can't fix, wars on various fronts, and the deaths of random people to various incidents?
I like some humor in my news, thank you.
I don't know about you, but being carted around from set to set, having paparazzi chase you around, having a mother who probably doesn't know what she's doing (I can't say this accurately, but raising a kid isn't like caring for BABY-B-REAL), and growing up only to discover the internet pictures involving your "aunt" is just as bad a living condition as growing up in a 3rd world country. I can only imagine that this kid will probably end up getting famous in 10 years BECAUSE he/she is the daughter of Jamie Spears... only to get knocked up and have another child.
And the vicious cycle continues.
EDIT: Oh hey, iCarly's on right now!

You mean iCarly wasn't a typo? Man, I'm so out of the loop...I typed it like iCarkly cause I'm a fag and I didn't catch the error. I hate to admit but I find that show and Drake and Josh to be pretty funny...it's sad.
News isn't meant to be humorous, it's meant to inform the public of whats important.
And quite frankly, some 16 year old twat who is mainly only famous cause of her sister who gets pregnant, isn't really important at all.
I hate to admit but I find that show and Drake and Josh to be pretty funny...it's sad.You're right, it is. Those are two of the worst written shows on TV. Anyways I couldn't give a damn about this kid getting pregnant.
The news doesn't really inform the public of what's important, it informs the public of drama and bullshit that they deem at the very most, newsworthy. Aside from weather and traffic reports that is and the occasional actual information you can use to some extent, but for the most part, nah.
Is it gay that I watch iCarkly and Drake and Josh? Not like, "omg it's on in an hour" but like, but like, "oh this show is on I like it!"
yes this is gay because those are the worst shows ever (besides Zoey 101 but hopefully this pregnancy finishes that)
I don't care what it takes, pregnancy or what have you, anything is worth that show being ruined.
Unfortunately they already finished the shooting of the next season before she revealed her pregnancy. So we have at least one more year of that putrid shit.
Man Marcus, what is up with you and POP CULTURE. You're always the first one to post this shit.Yeah, I kind of agree with Myke. On top of that, why the hell do you seem to take pleasure in the misfortune of others?

worst news 2007
edit: my tv was on nickelodeon when i walked in the room and zoey 101 was on, and this was the conversation that was happening:
Some guy: Zoey you could always wear a bikini
Zoey: How would that help?
Other guy: It would help us...you look good in a bikini
Those are not exact quotes but that is basically what they said, and it was that basic and bland too. ZOEY YOU SHOULD WEAR BIKINI YOU ARE HOT
except she is pregnant WHOOPS
Why is it that some people think that getting pregnant young like that always require mandatory abortion?
It's better to get pregnant at 16 than at 40.
oh, it's not mandatory, it's just probably for the best. Admittedly, it doesnt really matter with her, she'll have plenty of money and all that shite, but your average 16 year old is so not ready to have kids.
I mean, i'm 16 and if i had a kid i'd just have no chance with school or anything like that. It'd absolutely cripple my education and future prospects.
I mean, if i do get through all this education lark THEN i could have a kid, who'd have, i dare say, a better life, cos his dad would have a good job and all that (should 'his dad' choose a conventional sort of career path).
Asides from that, when you're young you're meant to be a bit free from responsability like this, its the time for having a reet laugh and all that, nobody needs a kid when they're 16.
Is it shite.
edit: i take this pretty harshly because my 6 year old neice is already joking about doing lapdancing and shit. seriously. it fucking sucks. stupid tv. stupid bratz. (and stupid my brother and his girlfriend for letting her watch that disgusting shit)
Adoption.
I love how so many people are so quick to hop on the "WHORE" bandwagon just because she is 16 and knocked up.I think it's really just because, as a celebrity, and especially as a child actor on a family network, she's expected to be a good role model for their viewer base... Which is kind of hard when you're having sex and getting pregnant at a young age, especially at an age that, in some states, is still illegal. Plus, plenty of people who watch the show are younger than she is and still try to be like her (I do not know why television glorifies the YOUNG KIDS ACT LIKE ADULTS still because it's such a fucked up idea) and this could end up seeming like a PRETTY OKAY THING TO DO.
Shit happens, maybe she was practicing safe sex and something happened. Maybe she wasn't, I wouldn't know. 16 is very young, but anything is possible when you put patience and dedication into it. If she is a smart girl, she will grow up to have an awesome child, if not, we will just have another cocaine addict on the streets.
It happens a lot so whatever

She's supposed to be an actor, and ACT like they tell her to. What she does when she's off set is her own business.
Which it ISN'T.
EDIT: I mean FUCK, I don't even think most people are ready and prepared enough to have children by the age of 21, let alone 16. (no offense to anyone I may have inadvertently offended with this comment)

Its just your choice if you want to be a good or bad role model.
yeah, roman, what kinda shows did you watch when you were 12? i was watching dbz, pokemon, catdog and powerpuff girls (i just checked http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1998_in_television and picked ones i know i watched sometime in my life)
the 12 year olds of this generation are already being SEXED UP way too much, mentally. i already knew about that shit when i was that age but it wasnt force fed to me on tv. our generation is turning out pretty shit, what the fuck is the next one gonna be like?
edit: i take this pretty harshly because my 6 year old neice is already joking about doing lapdancing and shit. seriously. it fucking sucks. stupid tv. stupid bratz. (and stupid my brother and his girlfriend for letting her watch that disgusting shit)
alright when i was a little girl i watched the ninja turtles and rainbow bright and carmen sandiego and A BUNCH OF OTHER THINGS WITH NO WHORES
i should have mentioned this but you don't count
ps just to clarify i don't know what shows little girls watched back in the day but that's not exactly the point

They model themselves after the character, not the person.

edit: what I am saying is that the kids who watch ZOEY 101 or Family Channel for that matter are not the same kids who watch MTV for the most part. MTV kids are the kids who do INTERNET RESEARCH on celebrities where the FC kids are content just looking up lyrics for CATCHY POP TUNEZ
dude i did watch plenty of girly shows too, none of them were like this shit at ALL
the fat kid on drake and josh is actually pretty funny imo
anyone agree?
Are you kidding me? While I understand why you'd think that, I have to disagree. I have two kid sisters, one 10 and one 12, and they both follow the stars of the TV shows (which includes the Disney Channel and shit) and music they listen to pretty closely. They read those tween/teen magazines, read about happenings on those fan sites on the net, and even occasionally watch MTV and even friggin' VH1. It's reasonable to assume that their friends do all of this as well. I wouldn't be surprised if they've already heard of this.
the fat kid on drake and josh is actually pretty funny imo
anyone agree?
the fat kid on drake and josh is actually pretty funny imoIf its that show where there's this fat kid and this ""normal" kid (olololololo) and its supposed to have witty dialog then no.
anyone agree?
Are you for real Roman?
They're supposed to be kids. Sure, it's common to see some older dumb blonde and her friend conversating about their bikinis on other television networks... Since you know, they are most likely sexually active or are of age, and the target audience are older.
But umm, this shit on family channel? If they were to make some references to how they looked here and there it wouldn't bother me, especially on shows with female leads. However, these family channel shows have the most ditzy dumb kids ever who only read a whole bunch of scripts about their looks and impressing some boy. Don't ya know that it's kids as young as 7-8 watching this? Sure, have your little crush and all but please keep the sexual presence out of it... And you know, try and promote ACTUAL content instead of this combustion of PINK, BLUE, FLUFFY STUFF, COLOURFUL CLOTHES AND SKIRTS, LOL IMPRESS BOY/FIGHT OFF POPULAR GIRL, AND TALK ABOUT MORE CLOTHES AND APPEARANCE.
Really and truly, they are just brainwashing these kids until they get older so they can buy the music cds/100 other products and then the clothing products these lead actresses come out with. Just look at the trend... Mary Kate & Ashley, Hilary Duff, Amanda Bynes (well not so much her, she wasn't blonde enough), and now it's that country girl Hannah Montana.
Honestly, I watch some of this crap with my 10 year old sister and I've changed the channel many times because of the pointless garbage that is spewed throughout the show.
There are some pretty good shows on family channel though and some of them are quite funny. You got to understand that some viewers are young girls growing up and what they watch can really effect how they feel about themselves with all these excessive emphasis on looks or how they should act. So Yeah, I watch the shows with any of my younger relatives and if I don't like what I see I change the channel or at least point out how stupid the situation is.
First, Mom allows 16 year old daughter to move in with 19 year old boyfriend...
WTF?
THEN, she doesn't even discuss protection!?!?
But it's ok, they met in church.
You can get pregnant with protection, y'know?
I KNOW IT SURPRISED ME TOO
the fat kid on drake and josh is actually pretty funny imohes not fat anymore
anyone agree?
You sure know how to suck the funny outta everythin...
the fat kid on drake and josh is actually pretty funny imoWell I cant say hes funny but it was pretty funny to laugh at him when he was little. He weighed the same but was about 3 feet shorter, his voice was about 10 times squeakier, and he talked the same way/with the same accent.
anyone agree?
"I love babies, and I have my nephews that I love.
this is the best
"I have a great mom and she has raised three kids, so if I take lessons from her, I think I'll be great."
(http://www.gamingw.net/pubaccess/26699/miranda-cosgrovex.jpg)oh man drake & josh is disgusting for this. it's so bad, especially since she was probably like 11 when they filmed that shit. I mean the show isn't good but this is what makes it disgusting. miranda cosgrove combined naked brothers band basically makes nickelodeon the pedophile channel now
the fat kid on drake and josh is actually pretty funny imoYeah but during the show he got skinny so like the first seasons he's fat the other seasons he's not. It's kinda weird when that happens in the show because people get to know someone by how they look then they turn around and get skinny.
anyone agree?
drops the bomb that she's 3 months pregnant after fucking some guy she met at church.
This is why I prevent my little brother and sister from watching this shit!
At least they grow up watching shit like RECESS or JACKIE CHAN etc.
also jester and erave what is wrong with this statement: WHEN I WAS A LITTLE BOY I WATCHED THESE SHOWS BUT THE LITTLE GIRLS OF TODAY ARE WATCHING THESE OTHER SHOWS I CAN'T BELIEVE IT
I just saw a preview for the final episode of Zoey 101 called "Goodbye Zoey" where she permanently leaves school and that dumb guy has to say how much he loves her or whatever.
I think Nickelodeon knew about this shit before anyone else...
It would help if your post was funny in the first place. :gwa:
i havent read anything else but are you fucking kidding me?
i dont give a shit that they are watching DIFFERENT shows, but no show aimed at 5-10 girls should be about MAKEUP and BOYS and MAKEUP AND BOYS and LOOKING HOT. sorry, but no. they get enough of that shit when they are a teenager, i dont need my neice laughing around asking people to touch her ass and asking if she looks HOT or not.
granted, it doesnt all come from kids shows, shit like mtv is also to blame, but that doesn't mean it's just a case of HEY THEY DON'T WATCH THE SAME TV I DID
it isn't about the fucking shows themselves, it's about what morals and stories they offer. and modern shows don't offer any at all. even cartoons for girls in the 80s/90s were about BEING GOOD and BEING COOL and LOOKING PRETTY. not once was it alluded to that they were looking pretty for boys
agh im rambling now but im so fucking pissed off that you think me not wanting this generation's little girls turning into sluts when they are fucking 6 years old is AGH THEY DONT WATCH TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES!!
News isn't meant to be humorous, it's meant to inform the public of whats important.

Since a lot of you seem to be getting hardons over their misfortune, it turns out that the guy may get ten years for statutory rape.
maybe you should read everything else then because that wasn't the point of that commentuh, because thats the age of kids who watch it? yeah, ok, it's up to the parents to filter that shit, but do you really think parents DONT just stick nick on and leave the kids to it? its still not ok for nick to be showing that when they know just as well as anyone else that kids younger than 12 watch it.
ps: don't make up information to further your point, by the way!!!
edit: seriously 5 - 10 year olds how do you even come up with that
edit edit: like, 10 year olds, ok. but 5 year olds????? whaaaaat???????
Seriously, just because the target audience is 12-14 year olds doesn't mean 5-10 year olds don't watch it. Even though it's changed a ridiuclous amount, I watched Teen Nick (well it wasn't Teen Nick then but it was the same target audience) just as much as regular Nick when I was way under that age group, when you are a young kid you watch the channel, you don't care what the programming block is. And then I would watch Nick at Nite. Oh yeah, the target audience for that was adults...WHOOPS GUESS THAT MEANS I DIDN'T WATCH IT I'M NOT THE TARGET FOR THAT.
Target audience doesn't mean shit as to who actually watches things.
this is funny because if we were talking about violent video games you would probably be saying UH IT'S THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PARENTS TO MAKE SURE THEIR KIDS AREN'T PLAYING THE WRONG GAMES FUCK YOU JACK THOMPSONi knew youd say that
or do you support jack thompson
you support jack thompson don't you
edit: in other words if it's aimed at 12 - 14 year olds they shouldn't be held responsible if 5 year olds (FIVE YEAR OLDS DON'T WATCH THIS SHIT (look i can make assumptions too)) watch it and decide HEY IM GOING TO BE A SLUT (i'm 5 years old)

i knew youd say that
i wouldnt mind if they had WARNINGS before them, then itd be up to the parents. they dont.
also im taking the fact 5 year olds watch it from personal experience with my niece and nephew thanks.
so has anyone found the sex tape yet? if so linkx
You realize that would be child porn, right?
You realize that would be child porn, right?
So if, as in this situation, a 16 year old has sex with a 19 year old it is technically rape without the parents consent.
That is not even funny.
And if you were serious, you are a disgusting individual.
Why not. It's just a 3 years difference. What isn't good is 18 girl MARRING a 40 year olds guy.
Three years difference isn't a bad thing when you're older and more mature, but uh, 15 year olds do a lot of stupid things. They're going to do them regardless if their boyfriend is 15 or 18, of course, but the difference is that an 18 year old can take advantage of that naivety (or whatever you want to call it) and that's not right.
mar (mär) pronunciation
tr.v., marred, mar·ring, mars.
1. To inflict damage, especially disfiguring damage, on.
2. To impair the soundness, perfection, or integrity of; spoil.
you're right. not a good thing
Dating a 15 year old GIRL when you're 18 isn't a GOOD THING. (it's different for older girls dating younger guys (mostly because it rarely happens))
Yeah, sex for 14 year olds is legal if they're with someone below 18. If the person is above 18 years old they need the parents consent. So if, as in this situation, a 16 year old has sex with a 19 year old it is technically rape without the parents consent.
Like it must be some of fetish to marry someone is old enough to be your father/daughter, and then some girls that do this say that older man are more mature etc but this is complete BS, just because you're old it doesn't mean you're mature. Some of the most stupid and imature persons I've ever seen in my life are older than 40.
I had always heard that it is still considered statutory rape even with parental consent (at least, I had never heard anything about parental consent being worked into the offense, and that it was statutory rape as long as with somebody of the age below, period). I'm looking at the wikipedia article on it at least, and it says nothing about parental consent.Well, what I said is the Canadian way. So if a cop walked up and found a 19 year old and 16 year old in a car having sex, and took them back to her parents house, the decision would lay in their hands. If they said it was cool he'd get let off, and if they were COMPLETELY FURIOUS he'd be fucked.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/showbiz/showbiznews.html?in_article_id=503650&in_page_id=1773Hidden content (Click to reveal)The boyfriend of Jamie Lynn Spears could face statutory rape charges after getting Britney Spears' sister pregnant at 16, it has been revealed.
And Casey Aldridge, 19, could face up to 10 years if convicted, possibly with hard labour.

* Britney Spears' sons to be 'drug tested'
* Oh baby, baby: Britney Spears' sister pregnant at 16
* Could Britney Spears be set to marry for the THIRD time in another Vegas wedding?
* Was Britney 'slimmed down' in new video?
Fox News reports that if the baby was conceived in Spears' home state of Louisiana, the act could technically be considered "felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile."
Louisiana law defines this unlawful carnal knowledge as "sexual intercourse with consent between someone age 19 or older and someone between age 12 and 17."
Shock: the 16-year-old announced her pregnancy on a magazine cover
In Louisiana a person can only legally consent to sex at age 17. If aged 15 or 16, the other person involved must be no more than two years older for the act to be considered legal.
But Aldridge wouldn't fare much better if the "carnal" act happened in California, where Spears lives while on the set of her Nickelodeon TV show Zoey 101.
The Californian Penal Code states that any person who engages in an act of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor under 18 who is not more than three years younger than the perpetrator, is guilty of a misdemeanour and faces up to one year in a county jail.
But Californian criminal defence attorney Jim Hammer says: "If Aldridge is actually more than three years older he could be up for a felony, which carries a maximum three years in prison.”
Meanwhile, Jamie Lynn says she believes she'll be a good mother: "I love babies, and I have my nephews that I love.
"I have a great mom and she has raised three kids, so if I take lessons from her, I think I'll be great."
...On an unrelated note, I slept with a girl that looked just like Jamie-Lynn, so when I saw her picture with "I'm Pregnant!" superimposed on it, I had a momentary OH SHIIIIIIIIIIIIT moment. :rite:

I was wondering about this too. There's a law (at least here) that you cannot have sex with another unless you are both under or over 18 at the same time. The oldest will be registered as a sex offender and may be subject to a few years in prison. I don't really agree with this law, but I am wondering what will happen to the guy.
Still 19 with a 16 year old. Wtf?
Please see Overcoat's post for more intelligence.
Here in Wisconsin even if you are both under 18 you can both get charged with statutory rape.
And, of course, there are unheralded success stories behind ill-timed pregnancies such as this one. My mother had me when she was 16, and here I am today... a college student. Well, mostly. I do attend college, but hell if I can afford it. They'll probably kick me out soon, actually. She'd probably help me pay for it if she had a job. Or wasn't trapped in a emotionally stifling relationship with an uneducated boor. I can definitely read though, and I'm pretty good around the toilet.This is the greatest post I've read in a long while.
I like to consider myself as a true, all-American success story :)
