Even though she was a glamorous dancer, her coworkers adored her and often called her by her real name, Tula Finklea, from Amarillo, Texas.
Pop star Britney Spears has returned home to become an aunt. The singer arrived at family's home in Louisiana today to be on hand for the birth of her sister Jamie Lynn's baby.

Britney, her father, Jamie, her older brother Bryan and her assistant Brett all took a commercial flight out of LAX in the morning, arriving in New Orleans Wednesday afternoon.
The National Enquirer has reported that Jamie Lynn Spears will give birth to her baby sometime tomorrow.

Sources tell the Enquirer the 17-year-old had an ultrasound last week that revealed her baby possibly in the breech position, causing doctors to schedule a c-section for tomorrow.
"You know how they say we only use 10 percent of our brains? I think we only use 10 percent of our hearts," said Owen Wilson character in "Wedding Crashers."

Wilson's character in the movie was only hoping to get lucky with a girl when he recited the line, but in real life Wilson is a poetry fan.
