Singer Britney Spears‘ mom, Lynne Spears, has reportedly gotten a new job: skincare salesman!

TMZ reports that Lynne now works with Rodan + Fields Dermatologists as an Independent Consultant that makes house-calls. The company is described as being much like Avon, selling products and making commission from each sale. The company stated they are “delighted” to have Lynne on the team, of which she’s been a part of since the beginning of April.

She apparently joined RFD because, “My best friend, who is also a consultant brought me on board.  I love the team I am working with and am excited about building my new business.”

Good for her! I’m sure her identity has always been wrapped up in Britney, so I’m glad she has her own outlet!

Britney Spears’s parents, Lynne and Jamie Spears, are reconciling eight years after their divorce.

They are back together and are doing well and happy,” a source tells PEOPLE. “[They're] not remarried but back together.”

The couple, who divorced in 2002, were looking friendly on Saturday at Los Angeles lounge Boudoir. Onlookers at the lounge spotted Lynne and Jamie cheering and dancing as DJ Mr. Best spun Britney’s hits, like “Toxic” and “Gimme More.”

“They were in a great mood together,” says an onlooker. “They were laughing together – dancing and laughing [and] totally having fun.”

“Lynne is a dear, sweet person,” a family friend tells PEOPLE. “She deserves happiness. As her friend, my wish for her would be a happy ending.”

In 2002, shortly after the breakup of her parents’ 30-year marriage, Britney told PEOPLE it wasn’t a bad thing.

“It’s the best thing that’s ever happened to my family,” says Spears. “My mom and dad, bottom line, do not get along. When I was a baby, they argued.”

Britney, 28, also has been doing well romantically, and is currently dating Jason Trawick, 38.

Lynne and Jamie have been back together as a couple since last summer, according to Gossip Cop, which first reported the news of their reconciliation.

Britney Spears’ rise to stardom and subsequent descent into pop wreckdom may be turned into a Hollywood movie – if the singer’s mother Lynne has her way.

According to insiders, Lynne is convinced that her recently-published memoir Through The Storm will be a hit on the big screen.

“She’s pitching the book around to studios,” says a source close to the Spears matriarch.

It’s been reported that rising star Anna Faris is in the frame to play Britney, but Lynne has another – less obvious – choice in mind.

The source tells The Sun that “she even says she wants Julia Roberts to play her. It’s insane!”

On daughter Britney Spears, Lynne points to the media as a source of the singer’s troubles, “Is it human nature to want to build somebody up so very, very big, and then actually enjoy tearing them to pieces? I want her to remember back when she was the happiest person she could be, and be that person. She’s almost there now.”

Lynne says her daughter Jamie Lynn broke the news to her that she was pregnant by writing her a note. “I blew it,” she says about her reaction — after first thinking it was a joke — but then faced the challenge head-on: “We got the biggest blessing through the toughest time.”

Lynne’s new book, Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World, tells a mother’s story of keeping her faith and keeping her family together. Lynne also gets candid about both her successes and her failures, “I didn’t feel very strong,” she says. “All I knew was at certain points I had to do what I had to do.”

On her role in her daughters’ careers, “I’m more or less a cheerleader,” she says. “Did I ever manage my children? No. Did I ever take any percentages of anything they ever did? No, I did not. I really don’t know how to do these things.”

Ultimately, after all her family’s been through, she says, “I just pray for smoother sailing.”

Britney Spears’ mom started to chuckle when she first learned her 16-year-old daughter Jamie Lynn was pregnant – because she thought it was a joke.

Lynne Spears has revealed the teenage actress handed her a note and told her to read it alone in the bathroom of the family’s home. It was the first time Spears realised her little girl was having a baby with her boyfriend Casey Aldridge – but she initially refused to believe what she read.

In an interview on Today show on Wednesday, Spears said, “I thought it was a joke… I kept waiting for the punchline.”

But the matriarch quickly realized it was no laughing matter when Aldridge refused to look at her as she came out of the bathroom.

She added, “I was just truly in shock and then I started to cry. And then she (Jamie Lynn) started consoling me at that point.”
The youngest Spears revealed she was pregnant in an interview in December. Lynne Spears details the day she learned all about the pregnancy, as well as other family highs and lows, in her new book Through The Storm.

Britney Spears’ mother Lynne has attributed her daughter’s recent break-down to post-natal depression.

The pop star was hospitalized at the beginning of the year under a mental health order following months of bizarre behavior. And Lynne Spears insists that the singer’s problems began after she gave birth to her two children, Sean Preston, three, and Jayden James, two.

But the star’s mental health deteriorated further when she split from her husband Kevin Federline in November 2007, leading to a downward spiral in her personal and professional life.

Lynn writes in her forthcoming book Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World, “Having two children within a year of each other would be overwhelming for any woman. She had post-natal depression.

“Added to her broken-hearted spirit over the end of her marriage to Kevin and the enormous pressures of her career, it brought her to breaking point. It was hard for me to believe this much-loved daughter was enduring such pain and I couldn’t be there to help her heal. I felt hopeless.”

Britney Spears’ mother Lynne has blasted her image as a “pushy stage mother” and insisted she never wanted her daughter to be a superstar.

Spears senior has been accused of driving Britney’s career – starting with her big break on Disney’s Mickey Mouse Club. But Lynne insists the 26-year-old pushed herself from a young age.

She writes in her forthcoming book Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World, “Britney was always highly motivated to excel. I’m always startled when I hear folks think I’m a pushy stage mother. I simply did not have the huge ambitions for her that I have been accused of having.”
