Britney's New Dude: "We're Growing Very Close"

Posted Mar 14th 2007 5:48PM by TMZ Staff

Britney and Jason Britney Spears' newest rumored boyflavor of the month, Jason Filyaw, admits that he and Brit have been "growing very close" since their "special" relationship began, and even used the L-word to descibe his feelings for her.

In an exclusive interview with TMZ, Filyaw, self-described as "very spiritual," would neither confirm nor deny that he is dating Spears, but admitted, "I love her, I support her 100% and we are close." Filyaw, who's been attending AA meetings with Spears, also revealed that he is helping Britney with the spiritually "deep" part of her recovery.

The 33-year-old lead guitarist for the rock band RIVA says he met Spears long before she checked into Promises Rehab Center, and that they go "way back" to 2003, when he recorded some music with Britney at The Hit Factory in New York. Filyaw claims they stayed in touch, but "a few weeks ago ... we met up again at a Los Angeles AA meeting."

Ah, spring.

48. anybody wonder why Britney feels like she can do WHATever?

read:

44. princess the ruler

missy, you are full of such nonsense. Hopefully, YOU never get famous and mimic your little princess Britney. One in my lifetime, believe me, is one too much. Listen. What Britney needs is REHAB somewhere deep in the Heartland -- many miles from Hollywood. She should NEVER listen to enablers, fools who 'think' they know her based on that thing she USED to be on STAGE. After REHAB, I hope she attends BOOT CAMP where she'll be so tired by 4 p.m., she won't have time to think about other little boys and girls she FORMERLY played with, like that creepy Justin Somebody.

I am so sick seeing and hearing BRITNEY NOBODY 'news'.

but the fact her newest is outting ANY member of a 12-Program TOTALLY PISSES ME OFF!

now
off to my 12-step anger management program
see y'all later.

51. Britney needs help. All this stupid coverage of her is not helping her in the slightest. Where is her mother is what I'd like to know.

52. Britney is just another ridiculous, self-righteous, whore of a celebrity. She seeks out fame and then acts as if she's the victim. Poor Britney, it must suck to have 200 million dollars in the bank at all times. She whored her body and her ugly little face out and what did it result in? A huge pop music success and a successful perfume line (forgive me if I don't weep over her sad story). Has anyone ever heard of her contributing her gazillions of dollars to any noteworthy charity? I certainly haven't. Personally, if I were Brittany, I'd be self loathing too. She's a nasty person.
Stop focusing on yourself and pay attention to your kids, BITCH!!!

53.
If you are really working your program, you never ever begin a relationship with another member of AA for a good year.

This was just another betrayal to Britney...the last jerk sold the story of their blink and you'd miss it relationship and now this guy is discussing what should remain within the confines of an AA meeting or totally confidential with Britney. Not cool!

Although I'm not of fan of pop music I really feel for this young woman. It is so sad that she never knows who really cares...always wondering if someone is sincere; in it for the publicity; or the almighty buck!!

Best of luck young lady!!

54. I think Britney is a filthy whore. Is that the only thing Britney knows ( sleeping around, drinking, and only God knows what else; and in the same breath wants to sing about her perogative). I would be to afraid to have a sexual relationship with her, she's at a high risk of getting STDs; if she haven't had them already. She's to quick to jump in the sack and from the looks of it, she'll jump in with anyone. How low can your self esteem be to belittle yourself.

Britney NEEDS a life coach, and her kids will probably need a counselor when their old enough to know how much of a whoring mother they have. It's obvious she's not considering the effect this will have on her children.

I thought KFed was a total bum and only seeing $$$, but I'm beginning to believe the kids are better off with him. Since, Britney stole KFED from Shar Jackson. Maybe SHAR need to step in and show her how to raise children. The media trashed KFed, but since their split, the Britster is doing a fine job trashing herself for the media.

WAY TO GO BRITNEY, SHOW THE WHOLE WORLD YOUR NOTHING BUT WHITE WHORISH TRASH THAT WILL BE WILLING TO SCREW THE WHOLE WORLD, MAYBE EVEN A DOG; IF IT LET YOU.

Britney's perogative should be maintaining a healthy atmosphere for her children not going out on an all out FUCK FEST. I hope her mother Lynn encourage her to get tested.

56. Please to all the above losers ranting about Britney getting STDs, how do you know what protection she uses? As the article states, she knew this man for some time, and there is no way she is sleeping with him now. And I love the judgemental idiots that use God and whore in the same sentence. You might just be a loser yourself. What goes on in Rehab is none of your buisness and since you don't follow her and this man around, you have no idea what is really going on. They could be friends. And to the haters who claim they are sick of her, move on the the next article and don't comment. For the person who said they wish she would just od and be gone, you apparently have no children of your own, and if you do I wonder if you would feel if this were your child? It is nice to know there are perfect people out there.

57. Betcha within a year she'll be whelping her 3rd "boo boo"

58. Great idea (not) #1...dating someone from rehab is probably up at the top of the "bad idea" list..... hopefully this guy will hold her hand while she throws up all over him like she did that other guy....cuz she was drunk..oh wait....she says she's bulemic... maybe she's just a drunk bulemic.......this dude should run as far as he can.

59. I was actually hoping this idiot child would get serious help in rehab instead of repeating the same freaking pattern. Damn-what is it gonna take for her to realize that she is NOT making good choices?

60. WATCH OUT, BRITNEY!!! THIS DUDE HAS NO BOUNDARIES. HE CAN AND PROBABLY WILL TAKE YOU FOR A RIDE IF YOU LET HIM.
