Britney Spears has been accused of sexual harassment and child abuse in an explosive lawsuit filed by a former bodyguard — but her camp maintains he’s just out to make money off her.
Among other allegations, Fernando Flores claimed the pop star repeatedly exposed herself to him, beat her son with a belt and prevented her employees from seeking medical attention for both boys when they began vomiting due to food allergies.
On one occasion, the “Womanizer” singer is said to have “intentionally dropped her cigarette lighter on the floor, bent over to retrieve it” and revealed her propensity for going panties-free.
Additionally, the suit said Britney once demanded Fernando’s belt, whereupon he heard her young son Sean “screaming in terror and pain, and saw Defendant Spears at least twice savagely hitting the small child with Plaintiff’s belt.” And once at a hotel, Fernando said, she was “loudly having sexual relations while her two children were in the suite with her.”
Britney’s camp issued a statement calling the lawsuit an “unfortunate situation where someone is trying to take advantage of the Spears family and make a name for himself,” noting that “the Department of Children and Family Services conducted a proper investigation surrounding Mr. Flores’ accusations and have closed the case without any further action.”
Ex-husband Kevin Federline stands by his baby mama. His attorney told The Associated Press that he “is satisfied that the allegations are a product of economic motives” and “as baseless as they seem.” The attorney said if K-Fed thought the children were in danger, he would have already stepped in — which you’d think would be the case with the bodyguard, too, right?
Kat Expecting?
Whoa! Jesse James and Kat Von D only just made their public debut as a couple — but are they already starting a family?
When the tattooed reality TV star squired the, um, other tattooed reality TV star to her Wonderland Gallery opening last week, the brain trust over at In Touch magazine speculated that the slight pooch under her tight bandage-style dress was a baby bump.
However, noting that it would be mathematically impossible for Kat to be pregnant after dating Jesse just a few weeks, her rep dismissed the report to blog Gossip Cop as “absolutely absurd,” adding it would have to be a “miracle baby.”
So, expect the next cover of In Touch to read: “Kat Von D Pregnant With Miracle Baby!”
Snooki: LiLo Redux?
A judge didn’t just slap Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi with a fine Wednesday — he nailed her with some choice barbs.
While the “Jersey Shore” star avoided jail time for her July public drunkenness arrest on the Seaside Heights boardwalk, she did have to suffer the indignity of being called “a Lindsay Lohan wannabe” for her behavior. Ouch!
The pouf-coiffed reality TV star pleaded guilty to one count of disturbing the peace, but charges of being “criminally annoying” — oh, the jokes just write themselves! — and disorderly conduct were dropped. Snooks ended up with a $500 fine and two days of community service.
The judge speculated that her antics (which reportedly included shouting at cops, “Do you know who I am? I’m [expletive] Snooki! You can’t do this to me!”) were scripted for the show, asking her to think about whether “it was worth trading your dignity for a paycheck.”
Actually, we’re pretty sure Snooki really, genuinely acts like that all on her own.
