There’s such a thing as wanting to be like your older sister and then there’s taking things to extremes. After knowing Kevin Federline for less than a year, Britney Spears married him and had two children. Not surprisingly, the relationship didn’t work out and after the meltdown that Britney went through, she only has partial visitation rights with her two sons. Her younger sister, Jamie Lynn (former star of Zoey 101) had her first child at the age of 16 this year, with boyfriend Casey Aldridge. This week, reports have been flying that the younger Spears is, in fact, pregnant again with her second child!

Jamie Lynn Spears made headlines back in December when it was announced that she was 12 weeks pregnant. As she was only 16-years-old when the news was announced, Jamie Lynn's fans and their parents were understandably shocked to learn that the wholesome star of Nickelodeon's Zoey 101 would soon be an unwed teenage mother.
It's been a rocky road for Jamie Lynn Spears since the announcement. With the fate of Zoey 101 not entirely clear, the media giving her intense scrutiny, and paparazzi stalking her every move, not to mention all of the issues that come along with a pregnancy, the last seven months can't have been easy. But that chapter of now 17-year-old Jamie Lynn's life ended this morning when she gave birth to a baby girl named Maddie Briann.

After the recent baby shower for the very pregnant Jamie Lynn Spears, the 17-year-old Zoey 101 star spent the weekend at Liberty, Mississippi to attend to another baby bash, this time with mostly the Aldridge clan. The first May 3 bash was spent with the Spears family and was the venue for Jamie Lynn and big sister Britney to reunite after a few months apart. Despite being an Aldridge party, this Saturday’s event was spent without the 19-year-old dad-to-be and Jamie Lynn’s fiancé, Casey. Now that Jamie Lynn’s due date is drawing near, big sis Britney is promising to be there for her sister, claiming that she is considering moving back to their hometown of Kentwood, Louisiana to witness Jamie Lynn’s childbirth.
“At the baby shower, she told her little sister she wanted to be there for her the entire time,” a close friend of the Spears family told E!. “I'm not sure how Casey is going to feel about that. But Jamie Lynn seems pretty excited.”

It was previously reported that Britney and their mother, Lynn, were away from home in April, when the Zoey 101 star celebrated her 17th birthday with just her hubby and daddy-to-be Casey Aldridge, 19. Rumors of animosity between Jamie Lynn and the rest of the Spears family began circulating after her birthday, but they are now dispelled after Britney and the rest of the family showed up in Kentwood, Louisiana for Jamie Lynn’s baby shower.

For those who are sick of hearing Britney or Jamie Lynn Spears news, here’s a breather. Nickelodeon is set to create their very own High School Musical. Yes, you heard it right. The annoying but amusing Disney hit series is about to be replicated by Nickelodeon, who claims that it will purely be a “performance-based spectacle,” Reuters reports, instead of the typical High School Musical scene wherein the characters suddenly break out into a song. Moreover, Zoey 101 actress Victoria Justice is set to be part of the upcoming film entitled Spectacular.
