The third time isn't the charm for Britney Spears – at least not yet.

Despite rumors that the singer plans to wed her boyfriend, agent Jason Trawick, the couple are not engaged, a source tells PEOPLE.

"There's no truth to it at all. Britney is not engaged," says the source.

Rumors of impending nuptials for Spears, who has been married twice before, began to surface Wednesday after Star magazine reported that the singer planned to "walk down the aisle again" with Trawick.

Spears, 27, and Trawick have been spending lots of time together lately – including taking a trip to the Bahamas with her two sons last month.

"They're very sweet together," a source told PEOPLE earlier this month. "He makes Britney really happy, and he's great with the boys."

VIDEO: Check Out Britney's Boys Dancing to 'Toxic'

Originally posted 06/04/2009 03:25PM



Move over Cruz Beckham, there're some new dancing tots in town.

Following in mommy Britney Spears and daddy Kevin Federline's footsteps (excuse the pun), Sean Preston, 3, and Jayden James, 2, put on a show of their own during rehearsal for Spears's "Circus" show in London Tuesday. Inside the ring, and using hula-hoops as props, the two had their own routine for mommy's hit, "Toxic."

We're wondering whom they inherited their dance moves from? Their pop star mama or back-up dancing papa?

Check out several more clips of the talented tots here.

Fans, Critics Split over Britney's London Gig

Originally posted 06/04/2009 08:00AM

Remixed music and super-sexy new outfits gave U.K. fans of Britney Spears a treat Wednesday night.

But the critics were less than unanimous in their reactions to the initial gig in the European leg of her Circus tour under a perfect big top – London's tented O2 Arena, where Michael Jackson will stage his comeback concerts in July.

At least Spears pronounced herself happy, tweeting on her official Web site, "Just wrapped my first show in London. I love all the remixed tracks and new costumes!"

After making a big splash in the Bahamas the day before, Britney Spears emerged Saturday in Amite, La., where she made a low-key appearance as an "honorary" bridesmaid at the wedding of her cousin, Laura Lynne Covington.

"When her brother walked her down the aisle, she looked stunningly calm and beautiful," says one wedding guest. "She was very pretty, low-key. She was not the center of everything, just pretty and calm and collected.”

The wedding took place at the First United Methodist Church, the same church where the funeral for Covington's mother Sandra, who died of ovarian cancer, took place in January 2007.

Sam Lutfi May Have to Foot Britney's Legal Bill

Originally posted 05/11/2009 08:55PM

Sam Lutfi faced off against Britney Spears's legal team – and lost, slapped with a three-year restraining order last month.

His wallet may be taking a hit next.

Lawyers for the singer asked a Los Angeles court last Friday to order Lutfi, who once was her manager, to pay $123,142 to cover Spears's legal fees for the courtroom battle over the restraining order.

In addition, her lawyers are seeking $129,922 from Jon Eardley, an attorney who has challenged Jamie Spears's control over his daughter, and $72,292 from her ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib. Both Eardley and Ghalib were also ordered to stay away from the pop star.

A judge has yet to sign off on the request.

POLL: Which Celeb 'Cop' Would You Like to Be Stopped By?

Originally posted 05/09/2009 11:30AM

Ever have fantasies about being pulled over by a sexy police officer? Well, some famous pop stars seem to be channeling their inner patrolwoman by rocking the cop hat.

Beyoncé was the first to bring the uniform back in her "If I Were a Boy" video in 2008 in which she slams an offender on her patrol car as her crush ogles her fierce ways. Britney Spears donned a sexy cop getup during her "Circus" tour, reprimanding her cheating boytoy to her hit "Womanizer." Most recently, Victoria Beckham took the trend off the stage and onto the streets en route from a flight from L.A. this week.

Sam Lutfi Says He'll Appeal Britney's Restraining Order

Sam Lutfi Tells Court He'll Appeal Britney's Restraining Order

Originally posted 04/30/2009 02:40PM

Sam Lutfi just can't quit Britney Spears.

The pop star's former manager, 34, who was slapped with a three-year restraining order Tuesday after a judge ruled he was a threat to her, has notified a Los Angeles court of his intention to appeal.

His lawyer, Bryan Freedman, argues that Lutfi was only responding to the singer's "cries for help" to buck her father's legal control. "Sam's only crime was trying to help out a friend," says Freedman, who has argued there is no evidence that Spears suffered substantial emotional abuse.

The restraining order was requested by Jamie Spears, who has indefinite legal control over his daughter after her two forced hospitalizations in early 2008.
