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."

32. I am sure that Britney is well aware that the 3rd time is the charm (marriage wise). Can hardly wait to see who is the next "lucky" devil. Don't sign the prenup...At least this marriage lasted more than a week. Who wll light poor Brit's cancer sticks?

33. Poor Britney walking on stage to thunderous applause. I don't know if she heard it the way she was chomping on her gum. Brit, I will pay for your flight to get lost in the Maldives with TomKat.

34. I don't like Britney Spears at all but it is in extremely poor taste to have a comedy sketch like that right before she comes on stage. I'm sure its not easy to get divorced from the father of your two kids. She obviously loved him at some point, so I'm sure this is hard on her.

I've never been divorced and haven't been through an ugly breakup since high school, but it hurts and I would have been devasted if someone poked fun at my hardship

38. Hey,

Thank you! :)

39. Haters are just hating just to hate once again. Britney looked absolutely stunning last night. Nevermind the photo TMZ has up. Go check out the rest of them.

As for the Fed-Ex joke. I thought it was wrong, but it was hilarious. I especially liked the Vanilla Ice comparison crack. You gotta give it up to Kimmel. Britney may not have known about it, but she probably would have been even pissed off if they had cracked on her. I wouldn't actually blame her for being upset. It was kinda messed up. Lol.

41. Britney is playing stupid, c'mon ! Britney could have said something on stage she could have not walked out too and stated it was rude or what ever her feelings were but no she stood by it . She was smiling and all happy when she walked out if that had been me I would said something if I was that upset. The problem is that she is probably worried at how this makes her look I mean she is the one who twice had babies with this so called looser! HE WASN'T A LOOSER THEN SHE USED TO SAY! I THINK SHE CAUGHT REALITY OF THE SITUATION AFTER THE FACT AND REALIZED IT WAS NOT SMART. Degrading the father of her 3 children and ex- husband that she will always have ties with due to her kids. Its funny how he was gods gift before to her and now she hates him, Brit throw away the gum and stop being mad at kimmel you are the looser and next time RSVP to the show not so last minute and you will know all the skits! PS even with your lypo suction and fake boobs you still look like white trash and next year maybe they will pick you to throw in a crate in the river hopefully then we can call it even! LOL! Anixously waiting to see that!

43. #18

yes, well whether or not she did this text message is their business..not your business nor mind. What do her fake extensions have to do with anything?
I'll answer that...NOTHING.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

44. It wasn't so much the skit that bothered me, but the fact she came out chewing gum like a cow chews cud. Seriously Brit, didn't you learn gum on TV is a no-no!

45. Post 11, Ladyinblue, not that I disagree with you, but in actuality it was 90 degrees out that day. We are having a warm spell here in L.A.
