The Lady Federline's publicist, Leslie Sloan, will probably find herself looking for a new job by week's end, after accidentally letting it slip that the demon spawn gaining strength in the fading pop star's womb is a female human.

The big chuckle here is that one of the jobs of a publicist is to smooth over stupid slips of their employer's tongues. But poor Ms. Sloan was the one with the loose lips here--when a journalist called her and asked about Britney's alleged hospitalization due to pregnancy complications, she answered: "She's OK. Mother and daughter are doing fine." D'oh.

Of course, Sloan is a professional, and she knows that when you're snarled up in the threads of your own verbal bungle, the best defense is to deny, deny, deny. Today, she told the New York Post: "The [New York Daily] News made that quote up, I never said that. I don't know the sex of Britney's baby. I am shocked they would blatantly print a lie and attribute the lie to me." No one in the Britney Spears camp is safe from the wrath of false tabloids.
