TMZ Photog to Brit -- Remove Tire from Foot

Britney Spears got intimate with a TMZ photog yesterday -- she ran over his foot!


It happened -- ironically -- as Spears was leaving a Bev Hills medical building.

With one hand attempting to cover her freshly acquired Jolie-esque lips, Spears attempted to exit the parking lot in her Pumpkinmobile while using her other hand to steer. As she tried to make a quick left, with paparazzi by her side, Spears' tire ran over our sandal-wearing photog's foot. Spears stopped the car, trapping our guy for what must have seemed like 4 hours. Ouch!

Spears looked shocked once she realized what she'd done ... but didn't get out of the car to see if he was okay. Our photog went to the emergency room and fortunately, nothing was broken. But, in tire terms, it has not been a very Goodyear for our guy. It's rough out there!

Tune in tonight to TMZ TV to see how it all went down -- and Britney's reaction!

781. Sherry....wake up and join the real world. Mothers are having their children taken for a lot less than what Spears is doing. Even when it is for mostly lies by people with a grudge who call it in, and the mother does everything that is asked of her by CPS, they still hold the kids because my daughter will not admit to the lies, only the simple infractions she corrected! Three of MY grandchildren are still being held hostage and my daughter was not a drinker, did not do drugs and did not even smoke. 14 months they have had my grandchildren. They took the newborn the day after he was born. Spears will not follow court orders and left her poor kids crying because she would not let them in for a visit because no one is going to tell HER how to raise her children. What makes her so special? My daughter has seen drug addicts get their kids back, people who tried to kill themselves in front of their kids getting them back and more rights than she has been getting back doing everything asked. I am surprised it took them so long to take her children. No, wait, I am not. That's right, she has money for legal fees for a high priced lawyer.

783. Finally. They hurt so many people!!! It's a release of frustration, knowing that there is occasionally justice in the world.

784. Yo Fault Paparazzi!

If your post was in answer to mine about Spears and her kids, you may have missed my previous post, #732 about the photog whose foot was run over. He looked very embarrassed on TMZ that night and I am sure he knew it was as much his fault for getting so close. He was a man about it, not whining and whimpering like the ones that I have seen who pushed to far and got hit and such. Spears should at least get it together for her kids.



760. As much as I don't like Britney and wish she would clean up her act for her kids' sakes, this was NOT her fault! Hey Paparazzi, back off or be willing to accept that it's all your fault when you get your foot run over!

786. Why don't you all just leave this woman alone. You are all driving her insane. I am not a Britney Spears fan, but I think this is so cruel. Please allow her to live her life, and not taunt her. I am sure she will be a good mother, but all of you are making it impossible. Put yourself in her shoes. Be kind and humane. Let her breathe.

787. Wow... TMZ has some great actors. Sorry to say but i dont think that guys foot was ranned over at all. A mere smear of tire mark. I just call it "MORE RATINGS". Good job TMZ, looks like it worked, but you guys should give Miss Britney some space. Let her breathe for once!

788. Amazing this doesn't happen more often. The paps need to stay out of the way of the cars. Not smart, dudes.

789. I think that they get what they deserve. I mean, what dumb ass would stand that close to a vehicle in Drive? If he tries to sue her, the judge should just send him to jail just for trying. It was his fault. Maybe this will be a wake up call to the non life having papparzzi. The poor girl is going through enough in her life....she makes mistakes, i mean, she is human after all. Just listen to the news, or see whats going on with you own next door neighbor. They have custody battles, and do some mistakes too. Just because she is a celebrity doesn't mean she is considered perfect. With her body issue, its not an issue. Yeah she gained weight after having her babies....what woman doesn't? I bet most of you that critize her body are fat women that are just jealous because you cant have her body. I just had my baby 7 months ago, and losing the weight isn't so easy for all people. Atleast she didnt go all anorexic like Posh Beckham. I think Britney is beautiful the way she is. With all of the people criticizing her, it helps break her down. What she needs is a helping hand...not an accusing finger. I support Britney and I pray that things look up for her soon. I know they will. Britney is a strong woman. I have faith in her and so should all of you critics. But you guys feed off of suffering people and the negative things. How heartless of you. How would you feel if you were in her shoes?

790. Hey be fair TMZ, I watched the clip on your show and she apologized two or three times. How can she avoid running over someone's foot with everyone crowding the car like that? come on...

791. Why are there so much trouble about celebrities these days? Maybe we should let them alone people. Britney, did you remove your hot profile from Richromances.com? If so, it is ```````ok. I am just curious! LOL

792. Well I for one have heard more than enough about Britney and her life but I do agree the paps need to back up and back off the money is not worth all the drama that follows her. I really feel sorry for Britney her life has done a complete 360 and it's apparent that she's to blame. Instead of making the so called "money shots" why won't someone offer to really help her , she is crying for help but doing it in a way that is very hurtful to her and her adorable kids. We as viewers and readers of all this stuff need to take the time to pray for Britney and hope she opens her heart and mind to reach out for the help she needs so badly !

793. Almost everyone can agree Britney is a hot mess, but let's talk about this photographer and his footwear choices, white socks & sandals? He should of been run over more than once.

794. ANY PERSON IN THEIR RIGHT MIND, AND NOT LOOKING FOR A PHOTO-OP FOR PAYMENT HAS THE SENSE OF MIND TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF A MOVING VEHICLE! YEAH, THIS WAS THE PHOTO HOGS FAULT IN MY OPINION. IF IT WERE ME, I MIGHT HAVE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF THE SITUATION, BACKED UP AND HIT HIM AGAIN.

795. Stupid photog's need to back-off and let the poor gal drive! I wish she'd run his nutts over. Maybe next time they'll not swarm her car. Should be a rule out there about how close they can get to take pics. Next time Brit hit reverse and flatten the foot!
