Britney plans a Kabbalah wedding
By Laura Benjamin, Daily Mail, Showbusiness Reporter 27 July 2004
Britney Spears, whose first marriage in January lasted just 55 hours, is to wed again, in a Kabbalah ceremony.
Friends say the 22-year-old singer has set aside a weekend in the autumn to marry fiance Kevin Federline, who she began dating in April.
It would be the first celebrity Kabbalah marriage and could take place beneath a traditional Jewish canopy known as a chuppah, with wedding vows inspired by the cult religion. The faith taken up by Miss Spears is also favoured by Madonna, Guy Ritchie and Demi Moore.
Miss Spears's parents are said to be horrified at the prospect and, as devout Baptists, are urging her to plan a ceremony reflecting their faith.
'There's some resistance from her family,' said a friend. 'But maybe there's a way to incorporate elements from both faiths, and make everyone happy.'
The singer has turned to Kabbalah after a dramatic few months which have seen her cancel a world tour following a knee injury.
Now she has fallen for 26-year-old Federline, a dancer whose exgirlfriend Shar Jackson gave birth only last week to his second child.
Following a number of failed romances, Miss Spears said of her liaison with Federline that she had 'kissed a lot of frogs and finally found a prince'.
The stresses of the past year have already taken a toll on the singer - she was photographed earlier this month apparently unfit, overweight and with pimples on her face.
Her first wedding, earlier this year, was held at a roadside chapel in Las Vegas after a long night out with childhood friend Jason Alexander. The marriage was annulled.
oh how heartfelt her religious convictions, she was coming forward to accept Jesus a few months back, in tears, if i recall correctly....
Dear Britney -
May I suggest a Pre-Nup?
Love,
BossLady
I'll be right back. I'm going to tell my daughters just how damn great I think they are.
Don't you know we have murder threads up and running?
what a soap opera.
Wasn't there a toy back in the 1960's that looked like a big "8 ball" that had a clear window in it where you read fortunes called Cabala?
"Now she has fallen for 26-year-old Federline, a dancer whose exgirlfriend Shar Jackson gave birth only last week to his second child"
What an asset to traditional, hetero marriage this couple will be. [/sarcasm
Eh...why not?
Fake singing, fake performances, fake career, fake friendships, fake relationships...why not throw in a fake marriage?
IOTN Predicts - "Doomed from the start."
Marriage won't last three months. I have October 15th in the FR Britney pool !!!!
i like a good crime now and again...
A little late for parental urging I would guess.
I found one on e-bay:

All of which helps lead to that long-awaited and inevitable day when she says, "F*** it. Get Hefner on the line and tell them as long as the shots are 'tasteful,' I'll do it."
At least the poor little tart is marrying a male. Her normality of life scale is still only 10% of the rest of us nobodies.
Beavis and Butthead exhibit better judgement than this girl. Sad.
Ah, you mean those devout Baptists that let their daughter prance around like three-dollar whore on national television for five years.
If she's Jewish, I'm a kosher ham.
