Spears' sister 'has a baby girl'

Singer Britney Spears' actress sister, Jamie Lynn has given birth to a baby girl in a Mississippi hospital, according to US reports.

The 17-year-old star of Nickelodeon TV comedy show Zoey 101 has named the child Maddie Briann, the Associated Press news agency says.

The teenager announced in December she was expecting a child with 19-year-old construction worker Casey Aldridge.

The couple announced their engagement in March.

Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center spokeswoman Ellen Brannan would not release any details about the birth.

"We understand everybody's interested, but we don't give out information on anyone. Everyone's entitled to their privacy," she said.

In a statement Nickelodeon said: "We wish her and her family well."

Spokeswoman Marianne Romano said filming for the fourth and final season of Zoey 101 was completed last summer before Spears became pregnant.

How to Tell if Someone Is Being Sarcastic

1. Most of the time, people will change the tone of their voice when they are being sarcastic. 2. Listen for a flat, uncaring tone, or an overly-emotional tone. 3. Try looking for extra emphasis on one or two words, like the word "The" can be said like the, or with the E sound at the end. 4. Watch for these words; like, well, the, and, sure, etc. Someone may say the word longer than they would normally in a normal conversation. 5. Try listening for words like, "yeah, uh-huh, sure," and, "as if." 6. If whatever they're saying sounds outrageous, they may be sarcastic. 7. If none of these steps work, then you are dealing with a master of sarcasm. Take whatever they say with a grain of salt. 8. Look out on the internet as well. People who are being sarcastic on the internet (could be considered trolling) are usually clearly sarcastic. Always look for stupidity in others' posts.
