New mom Britney Spears did
not just give birth to a
bouncing baby boy — she
delivered a $6
million windfall! "Britney and
Kevin stand to make a fortune
as new parents," a source told
The National Enquirer.
The source revealed that
Britney and husband Kevin
Federline expect to make $3 million
for airing birth footage on the second
installment of their reality TV show.
They also have a $2 million deal for a
subsequent video that will document
the entire story of Sean Preston's
birth. It will include every detail from
the time Britney left home, entered the hospital,
had the baby, went back home and
their first weeks at home with the baby.
They'll also pocket another $1 million from
print rights to the first baby photos including
an interview with the couple. The lucrative
deals are just the beginning of a new
money stream for the couple, who were
rumored to have had cash flow problems.
Britney, 23, has been getting calls
pitching endorsement deals and she's
considering a line of baby clothing.
Britney and Kevin, 27, arrived at the
UCLA Medical Center in Santa Monica,
California, on September 14
around 5 am in a fleet of blacked out
SUVs accompanied by a swat team.
Her entourage, including mom Lynne
Spears and sister Jamie Lynn, occupied
the V.I.P birthing suite and an additional
seven rooms on the floor at a cost of
$20,000 a night.
Sean Preston Federline made his
entrance at 12:57 pm. He weighed in
at 6lbs 7oz and had a full head of
straight black hair.
An insider said: "Kevin
and Britney cried like babies
as he cut the umbilical
cord. Tears continued to roll
as the nurses cleaned off the
baby and put a blue cap on him and placed
him in his mother's arms." The source added:
"Britney was so emotional — she said 'I can't
believe God has given me such a miracle.'"
The surgery went off without a hitch. It
was Kevin who first suggested Britney have
a C-section. "Britney was afraid of the pain,"
the source revealed. "Kevin wanted to save
her the pain. I think he also wanted to see his
wife get back into her sexy shape quicker."
While Britney wants to concentrate on
motherhood she still wants to keep
working. She has representatives negotiating
a deal for a permanent show in Las
Vegas that could top $100 million, the
insider revealed.
Meanwhile, Sean Preston is well on his
way to becoming one of the most pampered
babies in Hollywood. Madonna sent him a
huge basket of goodies and he'll be dressed
head to toe in his own free line of Versace
clothing — thanks to Donatella!
And Britney is ecstatic being a mom and
plans more children. She exclaimed: "I
can't wait to have another one!"
