A NARROW ESCAPE

We're not surprised that Madonna has appparently told Britney she's "too busy" to be a godmother: after all, that's the reason Maddy gave for not answering when she was asked how she felt about the chap at the Kabbalah Centre she helps fund making his holocaust remarks. How can somebody without the time to make a simple statement ever hope to find the space in their schedule to help take care of a kid's spiritual wellbeing?

Of course, the kid will doubtless be delighted in a few years to discover that it almost had a cult fundraiser acting as a conduit between it and God. Presumably it would be the only such relationship where the godkid was expected to contribute to the godparent, and not vice-versa.
