Train Wrecks
Britney's Manager Says "Gimme Less"

Britney's manager has jumped ship, and the reason sounds strangely similar to her former lawyer's woes over Spears.

Manager Jeff Kwatinetz issued a statement saying, "It saddens us to confirm media reports that we have terminated our professional relationship with Britney Spears." Noting Kwatinetz repped Brit for a grand total of one month, he continued, "We believe Britney is enormously talented, and has made a terrific record, but current circumstances have prevented us from properly doing our job."

So what are the "circumstances?" Maybe they're similar to what we hear about Laura Wasser going South on Spears. We're told Wasser questioned Brit's judgment but simply could not control her.

Sources close to the situation tell us Kwatinetz had similar problems, notably at the VMAs, when Britney decided to switch the costume she planned to wear for the glitterated swamp bikini, without telling anyone. Ding dang, y'all.

We're told after the VMAs, the firm demanded to meet with her but she refused. They felt she needed help, but she wouldn't hear it.

181. Wow, the hate and nastiness here is starting to reach perez hilton critical proportion. NONE of you really know what is going on. Am I the only one who find it interesting that TMZ has not said a thing about whether or not Brit has really lost her kids? I read on Dlisted that they are to wondering if Brit lost her kids or not.

182. While we may not know if Brit has temporarily lost her kids, we do know one thing... she's DEFINITELY lost her mind.... AND HER PANTIES!

If exposed I bet k'fed is behind his desire to testify how can you believe any of them. Briteny Don't stop fighting don't give up. Humble yourself and ask for help everyone needs GOOD help and get away from that partying scene it is destroying you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

184. *****IDEA: When they capture bin laden, they should make put him in a room with Rosie, Oprah and Britney, oh hell throw OJ in there to.... as revenge and torture for 9/11. After that he'll be BEGGING to die... then we can torture him some more with more traditional methods... well... after that, make him watch Britney's VMA' performance till his eyes bleed, then kill him.... it'd be well worth it.

186. As for the questions about why the media follows Brit -- Well, you're here, aren't you? You're interested. Brit's antics get peoples attention (witness MTV's getting her to lead off their Video Awards, and the ratings they got as a result). The Paps follow her because recently, she's had a history of doing outrageous things in public, in full view of the cameras. Although a certain amount of what you read here is "Brit goes out for coffee at Starbucks, Ding Dang!", the reason for the obsessive coverage is that Brit does things like driving into parked cars, assaulting photographers with umbrellas, or going for a swim in her underwear often enough to make it worth following her around with a camera.

If she really wants to shake the paps, there's a simple solution. Lie pretty low, and don't do the outrageous acts in public (wear underwear, for instance). If she don't provide the paps with material, her coverage will soon subside to a dull roar. Mind you, maybe she feels that no coverage would be even worse than what she has now (i.e. -- there's not such thing as bad publicity [I disagree with this statement!])

187. Oh Lord, here we go with the panty thing again. If going without undergarments makes a some one a bad parent the most of the parents in hollywood should lose the kids. HMMM lets see...Pamela Anderson should lose her kids we have seen everything she got...oh yeah, there is Madonna hell she did a whole book on sex, the justify my love video (borderline porn) AND simulated sex during one of her concert....we should through the book at her, and there is the Mom wanna be Paris Hilton we've seen all her privates and she has a sex tape. Lets not forget all the Nip-slips we have been privy to this year....I think I've lost count how many of those I've seen. Soooo, you going call Britney nasty or bad mom for not wearing underware then you should call all the other out on it to!!

188. Enough is enough. Send the white trailer trash back to where she came from. The world wastes way too much time worrying about this gutter tramp and her karmically challenged devilspawn known as her sons.

When is a judge going to grow a pair, place the children in protective custody, and rule that neither of them is fit to be parents? When one of them dies from neglect, or worse, parental attention? We've seen how good they are at that.

Am I a hater? No. I'm a realist. This $#it has gone on way too long!

189. Britney should just go out with OJ, he likes 'dem white wimen' , maybe he'll kill her to. And in the process "accidentally" kill himself. Then we can get ALL back to our 'REAL' lives!!!

190. Celebs can go out without underpants, but kids are getting fined for letting their pants sag (even tho i think it looks dumb).... whats the world coming to.

191. The two really great things that happened to Britney were having her two HEALTHY sons. She should forget showbiz, live on her millions and enjoy those kids because time just goes by too fast...

193. Breaking News!

The rats know when the ship is sinking.

The SS. Britney is taking on water and sinking fast. She is not expected to stay afloat after a major collision with a floating double wide trailer. Hundreds of rats have been observed jumping from her deck and swimming as fast as they can to avoid the impending career killing suction.

As soon as she settles on the bottom of the Career Ocean she will be used as an artificial reef so divers from around the world can observe her bloated and rusted body.

195. Surprise, surprise. The girl is washed up! She needs professional help soon! She is not stable for those kids. Kevin won't do much better as a parent either.
