Britney: Bare with bearBritney Spears, recent mother of Sean, has been seized as a Pro-Life (translation for non-Americans: pleasant way of saying anti-abortionists, because naturally those who favour a mother's right to choose are of course anti-life) icon of today's society. Rather graphically.

Yes, if you're in Brooklyn, New York in the next few weeks, why not head over to the Capla Kesting Fine Art gallery to take a slightly-sleazy ganders at a nude Britney in a celebration of pro-lifery squatting on all fours, and slightly bizarrely grabbing a decapitated bear's head (pro-life presumably only referring to human life).

Heat-reading viewers who can't understand the concept of a beautiful Cesarian section should be reassured that slight artistic license was applied with regard to the method of delivery, switching from her voluntary c-section to a standard drop-the-sprog birth, albeit in a somewhat gravity defying manner. Reputedly you can see Sean's head protruding from our Brit's relevant passage.

Funnily enough Britney actually had nothing to do with the creation of this "art", which is titled "Monument to Pro-Life: The Birth of Sean Preston". The artist, Daniel Edwards, took it upon himself to work from photos et al. without even a mere chat to the old-age-schoolgirl. The Poorhouse is unaware of the Brit's reaction, but suffice to say it gets decent publicity for them all as we celebrate her "brave" decision to choose having a baby over her recently arguably less-than-spectacular career. She has yet to return her invitation to the gallery launch.

Rather unshockingly, it has of course upset and outraged nearly everyone in the world, whether pro-life ("degrading to our movement") or pro-choice ("pro life propaganda").
