Britney Spears was supposed to release her new album in November, but her publicist has confirmed that it’s been postponed. Her rep, Leslie Sloane Zelnik, tells Life & Style, "I put her on hiatus. Brit’s album is pushed until ’08."

Another source close to Britney says executives at her record label, Jive, fear her career is over. The source says, "I’m surprised the album wasn’t pushed back to 2009. Everything’s up in the air with the album right now."

Maybe they should just release Britney’s album as a vinyl record that is already in the shape of an ash tray, or a drink coaster might be more useful. They might even release a scratch and sniff version that smells like Cheetos and cigarettes.

Lindsay Lohan will not be attending Sunday’s MTV Movie Awards, her publicist confirmed Friday.

LiLo was one of several celebrity presenters scheduled for the show, which is being broadcast live from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City. Her publicist, Leslie Sloane Zelnik, said in a brief e-mail that she wouldn’t be there.

The former “Freaky Friday” actress checked into rehab after a wild Memorial Day weekend during which she crashed her Mercedes Benz into a curb, was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence and was photographed slumped in the passenger seat of a friend’s car.
