TMZ Cameraman Tells How Brit Ran Him Over

Britney Spears ran over the foot of one of our photographers -- but there is a silver lining. TMZ is putting the sock our guy was wearing up on eBay and proceeds from the sale will go to the Children's Defense Fund and the donation will be made in honor of the popwreck herself, y'all!.



The story aired last night on TMZ TV.

Bid on the sock!

16. I've said it before....

It's time that Los Angeles County and Orange County put some laws down for the paparazzi to follow.

If they continue to pursue certain celebrity, maybe they'll all get both feet run over so they'll get off the backs of others! For those who are from England, go back home!

They've all assisted in the present creation of Britney Spears and, possibly, the reason she no longer has her children.

17. This guy ran up to Britney's car when she was almost stopped, slowly coming to an intersection at a mall parking garage (or at least it looked like a mall). It was his own friggin' fault his foot got run over.

18. If your foot is that close to a car, maybe YOUR MOMMIE didn't teach you to watch both ways before stepping off off the curb! She might be needing a parenting 101 class, but you need a Photog for Dummies Book! Why to you have those huge lenses idiot?

19. this is just ridiculous! they should really leave her alone, papparazzi are taking profits out of everything that happens to her and are probably the reason why so bad things are happening to her. and it looks like it's entirely the fault of the guy and he shouldn't have been so close to the car!and put the sock on ebay...well another stupid idea and way to take money out of something een if the money id for children, that's jsut a way to justify their action. i really dont think she did it on purpose and she looks shocked. leave her alone, to quote one of her fans!

20. those photographers are lucky they didn't get run over!! and if they did it would be their own fault! what do you expect when you swarm a moving vehicle? if i was the driver i would have made sure to run over more than his foot!! the paperazzi is WAY WAY out of hand!! they are DANGEROUS!! i realize that britney pics are hot right now but come on!! it's only a matter of time before someone gets really hurt ( remember princess diana anyone? ) or is that what they want? i guess it would sell alot of magazines & obviously that is all that matters.

21. Well how stupid can you be, to stand that close to anyone's vehicle, when it's plain to see they are trying to drive away. Why is it that you feel you need so many pictures and video's of the Star's anyway? If you've got one, you've got them all. You do realize that you are contributing to her self destruction, don't you? You record her every movement. She can't even go to a public restroom for God sake! She can't go to a drive thru window without TMZ being there. Here's a thought...."Let her pump her own gas from now on, order and collect her own food at the drive thru, go into the store and buy the CD of her choice, all by herself, like a big girl! Let her grow up!!" You can talk trash about all of these young women whose lives are screwed up these days, but YOU are contributing. You will turn around and make jokes of this sad situation, when instead, you should be ashamed.

22. What was Pavarotti doing chasing Britney Spears anyway? I thought he was dead.

23. If the papparazzi would stay out of her a$$ they would not get hurt. I understand they need a story but damn people need a life. She may not be the best mom but if we all had cameras on us noone would have their children!!! We all may bad choices.

24. Hey cameraman, move your foot - YOU BIG DUMMY.

25. Maybe if you people went out and got real jobs and left people alone this wouldn't have happend.Too bad she didn't run him over and kill his dumb ass!

26. Halle Berry was in a car accident caused by the paps the day after she announced she was pregnant.

I guess killing a baby and destroying her life would be worth a few bucks.

27. it's the fault of the photographer. you deserve that anyway. that's one risk that you wanted to take being a paparazzi. hellooo?!?!

28. Oh for Christ sake, you stupid ass. Quit your whining, step away from cars when they are moving, and maybe you won't get hurt. You picked your profession buddy, live with the consequences. You deserved exactly what you got. You paps say you'll do anything to get the shot....well, you may get hurt doing it. You can't have it both ways. Idiot!!

29. Wait. In the first story they ran, they said Britney ran over the photog's SANDALED foot. If he was wearing socks with sandals, maybe she should have run over his foot.
