Oh, anonymous sources. You make the gossip world go ’round. You’re so terrible to your famous friends and yet so awesome to people like me who thrive on hearsay and speculation. It seems like the more D-list the celeb, the larger the pack of money hungry vultures willing to sell their most intimate secrets to the highest bidder. For example, Britnny Gastineau might be banging someone famous, but she’s still a virtual nobody, so of course her friends have been rummaging through her bathroom wastebasket in search of bloody tampons.

Yep, according to one of Britnny’s “close friends” who, of course, declined to giver her name, the ex-reality star and current Michael Phelps slam piece is “late” and might be carrying Mike’s flipper baby. “She is so late and very worried,” the source told Radar Online. “She has an appointment with the ob-gyn on Wednesday in Beverly Hills.” Britnny’s anonymous bff also said that she recently bought a pregnancy test and apparently she went to a party over the weekend and didn’t get hammered. Well, damn, I hope she already picked out a name, because she’s obviously about ready to pop.

Since everyone seems to speculating about this, I’ll join in and say I think it’s BS. Between all the ‘roids and pot smoking, Michael Phelps obviously shoots blanks. Now, that’s how you start a wild rumor! And Mike and I aren’t even friends.
