So Where the Hell is Casey Aldridge?

It doesn’t appear the Casey Aldridge is quite prepared yet to become the next Kevin Federline.

I mean, what the hell would we call him? C-Ald? Case-dridge? No, no, no. None of it works.

The media have descended on his tiny hometown of Gloster, Mississippi, but Casey has been nowhere to be found.

“I don’t think they are ready yet to sit down and talk to the media,” his uncle, a pastor in Gloster, Miss., told The Associated Press by telephone Thursday. “They haven’t gotten their heads together yet … He doesn’t want to say the wrong thing to the media. At the right time he will speak … He is a quiet guy. That is why it is going to be very difficult to corner him until everybody is ready to talk together on the same page. He doesn’t like the limelight. He is going to hide as much as he can.”

The uncle said Casey has gone into hiding for now, and denied reports that his nephew and JLS, who was a guest at Jackson’s home this past Thanksgiving, were no longer together.

“I think they are going to try to stay together,” he said. “They certainly don’t want to part.”

As for marriage?

Jackson said Casey has told family members that “he wants to go ahead and get married as soon as possible.”

He told reporters his nephew briefly attended a junior college in Mississippi but now works for a pipe-laying company in Baton Rouge, La. He attended school at Amite School Center in nearby Liberty, Miss., where he played football and baseball, principal Dan Brewer said.

Awwww.

Hiding from the media? How quaint.

I love this guy already.

Yeah, he definitely knows a lot about pipe-laying. HEYO!
