Celebrity Feuds
Britney -- The Plot Thickens

She played it cool on stage, but Britney Spears was "pissed" at ABC over a derogatory sketch aimed at her estranged husband, Kevin Federline, during last night's "American Music Awards," a Britney rep tells TMZ.

E!'s Marc Malkin first reported Brit was upset, and now a rep for Brit tells TMZ, "She had no idea" that the skit would immediately precede her appearance. We're told Britney was "incredibly upset" and "inconsolable."

The sketch featured AMA host Jimmy Kimmel sealing a Federline look-a-like in a wooden crate and shipping him out to sea. Kimmel called K-Fed,"the world's first ever no-hit wonder." Less than five minutes later, Kimmel introduced Spears as a surprise presenter.

When contacted, a rep confirms to TMZ the idea for the skit was Kimmel's and he went forward with it because, "I knew they wouldn't mind because I know they both have great senses of humor."

1. going by what was said in the article about what happen on the show, i would be pissed too. it's tasteless, and rude, and intruding. it should have been cleared by her.

3. Sorry I missed it as I was watching Xtina sing with Tony . Tony is just a jazz jewel and what a great show . ANybody who has a brain knows the AMA are ABC owned and ABC artists often win no matter how good or bad they are ....FIXED !! Jimmy can be a DICKHEAD but as Frank Sinatra once said to me " I think your funny ..I won't kill you this time " I did laugh at that line . But Brit shouldn't be offended . The real insult is K-fed trying to sell the sex tape and those two trying to tell us it did not exsist . That and the OJ no show gets this call ----DICKHEADS .

4. that's tacky. no one thinks K-Fed is a real winner, but don't trash him minutes before his ex-wife walks on stage. no one would think that was funny if they did it to Reese about Ryan. Save the jokes for SNL and keep it classy.

5. i am really tired of the media portraying K-Fed as the worst person in the world. Just because he married Britney and they have kids...come on please.
the guy is trying to make a name for himself and it's a problem...if he's not working (at least in their eyes) it 's another problem. Britney thought he was good enough to have 2 kids with and that's her choice...Only insecure people target others so they can feel superior...enough is enough, it's getting old.

6. I agree with Mike. The world may be in "K-Fed bashing mode", but to do a skit like that with a) not notifying Brittany and b) directly before her presentation was in really bad taste.

7. Ah, class...it always shows! Nobody likes to be blindsided, but what the Hey...

8. OH PLEASE! Why the hell is this broad acting all new with this bull-ish like she wants nothing to do with Kevin??!! Trick you were f***in married to this dude, laid down with him probably over a million times AND bore 2 , not 1, but 2 of his damn offspring!! Get your nose out of the air - you will FOREVER be tied to the bastard because of your children! Get off your high horse!

9. I think it is hilarious. She picked the guy and is now paying for it. She is a dumbass and deserves what she is getting. Go check out her disaster of an outfit on X17..she is just clueless. Poor stupid girl.

10. Ohhh ... how well Brit has recovered from her night out with Paris . I hope she found her pants . I LOVE FISHNETS !!
REASONS WHY BRIT WAS SO PISSED AT THE AMAs'
1. She was told she would be the one to hammer the nails in the coffin !
2. She did not win anything
3. You'd be pissed too if you spent 10,000,000 dollars on a " No hit " wonder !
4. Her Breast just didn't protrude out enough to her liking
5. Was told she couldn't wear FISHNETS !!
6. Heard the award show was in a doublewide ...
7. No Pork-rinds in the greenroom
8. Someone refered to her as " Mrs. Federline"
9. her night out with Paris left a bad taste in her mouth
10 . Thats' the father of my Babies your making fun of ... OH SH*T !

11. Brittany looks like trash...what was up with that dress in the middle of November?..she was acting like it was 90 degrees outside. But then when she goes out on a night on the town in Vegas wearing a button up shirt and a damn neck tie? Who is being paid to dress that women. And I don't know if it is because of having two kids back 2 back but that girl looks like she in her thirties now.

12. Kimmel is a no-talent ABC hack. How else could he get his job, jobbing people looking for real comedy? He is offensive and bland. Well at least like Larry King, and Ted Coppel, we know that unlike him, they have talent, but like him, they never got their jobs because of their looks. Isn't it amazing that the people who make their own living living off celebrities, honk the horn over pretenders like "K-Fed". Federline is out to sea, working fast food again. Big deal, when the ABC exes get Kimmel's lips of their anuses, then Kimmel can join him at Mickey D's!

13. who didn't see this one coming? brit you picked this loser to father your children so you are just going to have to live with the rest of the world who's laughed at him from the start

14. I THINK IT WAS EXTREMELY INSENSITIVE. KIMMEL SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER, ESECIALLY WITH BRITNEY AT THE AWARDS SHOW.

YOU KNOW, PEOPLE NEED TO BE A LITTLE MORE CONSIDERATE OF CELEB'S GOING THROUGH HARD TIMES. HOW WOULD YOU ALL FEEL IF IT WAS YOU OR YOUR LOVED ONE.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS SOCIETY?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL.

15. Well, excuse me all over the place.... She should rather be upset with the public humiliation her husband bestowed on her for all to see. He dumped her and just right after her having a baby ---- this is waaaaay worse than anything Kimmel could joke about. She's not a bright bulb to begin with and if she's going to become idignant with the jokes, she shouldn't venture out in public at a time that that the media keeps inundating us with her trailer trash life and her own ignorant self. For me, she's the BIGGER joke than he is and she just doesn't get it.
