[/align][/align]JACKSON, Miss. " He's a 19-year-old pipe layer; a deer-hunting, dirt-bike-riding former high school class president who still lives in his tiny Mississippi hometown. So why are the paparazzi hot on his trail?

And to hear Aldridge's uncle tell it, the daddy-to-be isn't quite ready to join Spears " the star of "Zoey 101" and the sister of pop star Britney Spears " in the spotlight.
"I don't think they are ready yet to sit down and talk to the media," Odus Jackson, a pastor in Gloster, Miss., told The Associated Press by telephone Thursday. "They haven't gotten their heads together yet.""

can you balme him? I wouldn't talk to them either.

It's rather amusing that his profession is an apt metaphor for his leisurely activities. At least he has a job, unlike so many other young men his age.
I really don't understand the fascination with celebrity culture in this country. There are so many pregnant sixteen-year-olds that one more is unremarkable, even within a lower-middle-class-to-riches family like this one. Heck, I could probably find several dozen similar scenarios in the Bible or any other piece of cultural history. Old news...

RE: Zoey's Baby's Dad
he's a pipe layer ? sounds like an honorable enough job, making his own way in life, a common, ordinary guy that has happened to maybe even fall in love with a cutie Spears ?
I don't understand this thread at all, and the possible attempts to make fun of either ? She didn't have the baby killed, give her that huh ?
So, a few states over Genarlow Wilson got 10 years for voluntary oral sex but this guy probably will not be cited for statuory rape, which he arguably is guilty of. He's three years older than the girl -- a felony in California! Strange results in different states.
Yes, the girl in this case did not have an abortion -- but she didn't use effective contraception either. Like abstention.
