Kevin Federline Says He's Doing "GREAT!"

As a big sigh of relief fills all the land, Kevin Federline tells E! News on Wednesday that "I am good, I am great, you know ... just moving along, progressing and taking it all in stride."

"I laugh a little bit about it [the media attention] you know," he said. "I don't take it too seriously. Those are people who don't really know who I am."

His first, and hopefully last, album Playing With Fire, sold a meager 6,500 copies in its first week of release. Kevin said, "working it slowly, still trying to get out there and do more stuff ... I got a lot of options on the table right now."

As for his plans for the New Year?

To be "a little bit wiser, a little bit stronger."

Amen to that.
