Britney Spears's Sister Sends Gift, Loses Privacy

Petit Tresor is fame obsessed....

Petit Tresor is known for this type of leak. My husband and I were there when I was pregnant (visiting) and were looking for something special and unique as a gift for OUR unborn daughter. The sales lady could do nothing more than follow us around dropping names of all their "A-List" clients. It was disgusting. I wanted to pick up something special for my baby, not hear what all the Hollywood stars were buying for THEIR kids.

My husband and I left in disgust without purchasing a thing. We found a more discreet boutique to purchase that special gift. Even saw an actress there as well, but it was low-key and NOT a "we have so-and-so who shops here" experience like walking into Petit Tresor was!

Is there any good news you guys can be posted. It's all others lives...you guys talking about. How about financial aids so our american people can get good education. How about housing for people who need it? There are a lot of them. I understand you guys want easy money to earn...don't feed your puppies from rotten foods.

As I said, I tried to ask the company but they did not respond to my request. I'm still waiting for that return call from Jamie Lynn Spears, too. Sometimes you've gotta work with what you have.

How about some quotes? Research?? The rest of the story???

I wouldn't be surprised if the gift "leak" was approved by the Spears' family. If it wasn't, stay far away from companies like Petit Tresor.

Somebody had better do some explaining before Petit Tresor is shamed out of business. No baby products are "cute" enough to sell out ones privacy over.

Maybe you could interview someone who is actually involved in the story? The culprit? The victim? Anyone??

Consumer privacy is important. This news story lacks many key ingredients. Lazy journalism at its best.

Unless a celebrity is going to be paid for what amounts to an endorsement, it is crossing the line. Not only for Jamie Lynn, but I'm sure Bristol Palin really didn't want the entire US to learn Jamie Lynn sent her some baby clothes...
