In the July 12th issue of People (which should hit the newsstands tomorrow), Britney Spears breaks her deafening silence on her engagement to dancer/bastard baby-daddy Kevin Federline. Here's what you need to know, culled from the AP's sneak preview:

But yet she's marrying him and possibly carrying his baby: "Marrying Kevin was the last thing I was thinking about doing."

Refreshingly, she's marrying for love this time: "That [quickie Vegas wedding] thing was a total ugh. I was not in love at all."

The rock: Five carats. Obviously she purchased the paperweight herself.

On brainless, fairy-tale clichés: "I kissed a bunch of frogs and finally found my prince. I feel like I've found my happily ever after."

Surprising throw-in quote from Kevin's baby's mama from tonight's Access Hollywood, that sounds like a thinly-veiled invitation for a three-way: "After I meet her (Britney) and everything's cool, we can be one big happy family."

Unintentionally prescient advice from abovementioned baby's mama: "You should never blame the other woman, never. There's life after Kevin, and I'm living it!"
