Jamie Lynn Spears Pregnant

Britney Spears' little sister Jamie Lynn is pregnant.

Jamie Lynn, 16, confirms the pregnancy to OK! magazine and says that she's "shocked." She is 12 weeks along.

According to the magazine, the father of the baby is Jamie Lynn's longtime boyfriend, Casey Aldridge, 19.

She says she didn't tell anyone about the pregnancy for two weeks, then finally broke the news to her mother, Lynne, before Thanksgiving.

Jamie Lynn is best known for starring in the Nickelodeon series "Zoey 101." Last year, she won a Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Award for best Female TV Star and best TV Female Actress.

In a statement to "Extra," Nickelodeon officials said, "We respect Jamie Lynn's decision to take responsibility in this sensitive and personal situation. We know this is a very difficult time for her and her family, and our primary concern right now is for Jamie Lynn's well-being."

Now Jamie Lynn has a message to her young fans about premarital sex.

"I definitely don't think it's something you should do; it's better to wait," she tells the magazine. "But I can't be judgmental because it's a position I put myself in."

i think that she is not going to be a good mom, she is 16 years old. i know that girls that live around here that get pregnant at 16 years old are considered whores and sluts. its not a good reputation. she also has a show on a kids network, and shes NOT being a good role model. she is so pathetic.

I don’t think its brits fault for jamie getting pregnant. I think its more her parents and herself, cuz she shud’a used protection.If any ordanary girl was pregnant no one else would be like OMG but if they were famous everyone goes crazy like honestly leave the girl be …. I guess it is her choice, to get pregnant and to keep it. But i think everyone needs to lay off.

Why can’t people just mind there own business? Honestly,how many women want to deal with drama when they’re pregnant? God made that baby for a reason and it is none of our business why he did!!!! Leave her alone and let her look forward to motherhood.Let her family handle whats going on.

First of all my main point is that everyone makes mistakes. End of story. It just so happens that celebrities make them too no matter how perfect we want to believe they are. Personally, I think it was a bad choice to do this at such a young age, however I believe she is doing the right thing not getting an abortion. That is very good decision on her part. It could have been worse. She could have gotten pregnant and then taken an unlived life. No she’s going to go through with parenthood and stick it out. Good for her! I’m not saying I agree with teen pregnancy, at all. But as I said before, EVERYONE makes mistakes and bad decisions in life. Just look at Vanessa Hudgens with her photos online! That was a big mistake as well. Also, jamie has also struck me as more responsible as her sister. This is why I was so shocked when I found out. The only girls that would have shocked me more would be miley cyrus or emma roberts. But all in all I think she will be an overall better mother than her sister. It’s difficult to live in the shadow of Britney who has messed up big time on numerous occasions. All jamie hears from people are..”Oh here we go, another screw up.” Comments like that don’t help her situation! Honestly, I know this is just a TV series, but look at gilmore girls! Loralie and Rory aren’t screw ups! Their each other’s best friends! They have a wonderful mother/daughter relationship that any young mother has the ability to have with supportive friends and family! That’s all I have to say. And good luck to you Jamie!

i dont think anyone should blame it on britney because jamie lynn is her own person and she decided to sleep wit dogs and got up with fleas so she is just going to have to live with her mistakes..everyone has made mistakes people 11 and 12 have babies everyday but no1 is talking about that on television so just let the girl live her life its not anyone elses business whos fault it is or what should have been done because its already done.

Everybody needs to stop acting like this is so normal and beautiful for a 16-year-old to be pregnant!!!! I dont care how much money you have, 16 is too young for a baby and you have to think about the innocent little life thats being brought into this. I cant believe her mom let this child rapist boyfriend live with her, yes they should cancel her show what a bad influence….I wouldn’t let my daughter watch it. No Brit didn’t get her sister pregnant but she should have been a better role model. Being a young mom IS NOT CUTE!!!! But when you really think about it, She’s just another teen pregnancy, another statistic….she’s not even old enough to handle her own money that she makes….Sad….Sad…..Sad!

well she brought this upon HERSELF.i blame britney for being such a bad influence.i think jamie thought she had no choice.but before she got herself preganet she should have thought of her future: whats going to happen to zoey101…her carrer.how is a 16 yr old going to take care of her own baby?what happens if her boyfriend breaks up with her? I thought this was a horrible choice for her she is a very smart and pretty girl and now shes destoring her life.im just wondering what is going to happen to zoey 101 how can you have zoey 101 without zoey?
bad choice zoey.

Everyone makes mistakes. All she can do is face the reality. She did grown up stuff, now she should be grown up enough to face it. Sure it’s embarrassing but need to just ignore the world and do your best at becoming a mother. I think she needs to take a break from show biz, and raise her child. May god bless you and take care.

i think that its jamie’s choice to do whatever she does. But there is more of a chance that she would have an abortion because of the stress and pressure of the media surrounding her, and that isnt fair to the baby.

The only upside to situation is that she is lucky enough to be financially sound at such a young age. Honestly I think she should be put in a “real world” teen pregnancy situation. Baby’s father making minimun wage at a fast food joint, not enough money to get anything but what’s absolutely needed. Let her take a trip to the welfare line…. That’s the life the young girls that follow her will have to take…. Obviously she didn’t learn from her sisters mistakes and her parents appear to be MIA on raising their children even remotely well….

i think it is tragic. as a celebrity no matter how big, and especially as one on NICKELODEON— a kids network, dont forget, you have to know that you are in the public eye and a role model to millions of people including children. Jamie Lynn should have known that and taken precautions against it. she should have never allowed herself to be put in this situation in the first place, especially with whats going on with her sister. it not only gives her a bad name but her family as well. when regular teens get pregnant its a sad affair, but its even worse for one that is in hollywood.

This Is A Terrible, Terrible Mistake This Child Is Making…. She Hasn’t Even Reached The Highest Peak In Her Life And Yet She Wants To Throw It All Away… You Would Think In Times Like This That Jamie Lynn spears Would Be In A Conscious State Of Mind To Not Make Any Decisions Regarding On How She Wants To Spend The Rest Of Her Life, She Has Yet To Reach 18 Or Older This Child Can’t Even Vote Yet. But In Cases Like This… It Is Not The Childs Fault That She Was Put In This Type Of Predictament, It Is Her Parents. No Child At This Age Should Be Thinking Or Acting Like A Grown Adult… Where Were The Parents At While These Children Were Committing Acts Of Grown Adults… Shame On Them…. This Situation Could Have Been Completely Avoided… This Is What Happens When We Expose Children To The Life Of A Grown Adult… We Are The One’s Who Can Make Judgemental Decisions Regarding The Rest Of Our Lives. This Child Can’t Even Spell Love Or Tell The Meaning Of It, She Is Only A Child… And For The Family To Comment On These Children Getting Married For Their Sakes Or For The Baby’s Sake Is Completely Insane… Does This Little Boy who Impregnated This Little Girl Have A Job? Are They Going To work To Pay For The Things The Baby Will Need? Pay Taxes? Pay Bills? Get A House? All Of These Adult Things And Now This Baby, This Life Is On The Way… Another Brittany Spears Running Around You See It’s Not The First Mistake In The Family, Or The Second One Or, The Third… It’s Just So Many And How These Young Lady’s Lost It All It’s The Parents To Blame For All Of These Mistakes Who Do You Think They Learn It from The Best Influence In Their Lives, Their Role Models, Their Parents….

There are lots of young women that have kids in their teens. Does that mean their parents are going to raise them? No.Does that mean they are not going to be good parents themselves? No. Is this tragic? No. Mass casualties are tragic, pregnancies are not. Sometimes crap happens, you can only learn from it. This does not mean that she will end up like her sister. Should she get married? That is for only her and her boyfriend to decide. Marriage because of children and not for love will only end up in divorce. Should she be taken off TV? I’m not sure, however, maybe nickelodeon should create a show about teen parents and teen pregnancies to show that it is not a walk in the park. To show others that kids are hard to take care of and that it is hard to juggle school, friends, and a child all at once.Show how hard things can be so that others might learn from this situation, instead of repeating it. Best of luck to her. Do your best and love your child, keep looking forward. Thats about all you can do. Keep in mind it’s not easy, but what doesn’t kill us just makes us stronger.
