Paps Busted After Crazy Britney Chase

TMZ has learned that four paparazzi were arrested for reckless driving last night after chasing Britney Spears' car around Mission Hills, Calif. -- and four more were pulled over for driving crazazy-like.


Around 11:20 PM last night, according to law enforcement sources, police pulled over a total of eight vehicles driven by photogs, after they were observed driving evasively at a high rate of speed and making dangerous lane changes in and around Mission Hills. Four of the drivers were arrested.

We're also told that Britney herself told cops that one of the cars may have tried to "run her off the road," but she couldn't ID which car it was, so no action was taken. Also, we spotted her going to Kitson -- the clothing store -- at 1:30 in the morning. Yes, she made them open up the store.

TMZ has also learned that cops were pleasantly surprised when Britney forked over a valid California driver's license.

196. WTF?! Brit brings this on herself otherwise she'd move to France. Princess Di and Britt shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence. One was a lady and the other is a delusional idiot. I'm glad the paps went to jail they are idiots too. Find someone else to stalk this girl is boring.....news flash it would be news if she cleaned up here act. Even rotten little naughty children get put in time out. Brit needs a time out. Let's put her there!

197. I guess she got away with speeding AND NOT HAVING PLATES ON HER CAR again. The cops always "run" plates when they stop you for anything. She should have been ticketed for that at the very least.

198. Has anyone thought that just maybe, she loved Kfed. That maybe she still does and is just handling it badly. Imagine you love a man and you find out he just used you for fame and fortune. When they were toghether all he did was party and spend her money. She however, stayed home and raised their children, you never saw her as much.It's sad also her mother!! She should have taken him to court for visitation, NOT became his best friend! THAT IS A HARD STABB IN THE BACK. All I'm saying is this has got to suck for her. It's sad when you are betrayed by everyone in your life, even if you are rich.

199. Having just come from LA where I stayed near Studio City AND accidentially got caught in the firestorm of paparazzi around Britney, I can say that I'm surprised the starts don't carry large weapons. They wer like hungry wolves - screaming out inflammatory things just to get a reaction amidst "we love you Britney" "you look gorgeous Britney" It certainly changed my opinion. I came here out of habit but I'm going to stop because it's just perpetuating the insanity these sick people thrust on celebrities. Get a life and a different job.

200. The woman can not leave her home EVER for anything. I do not blame her for having them open their store in the wee hours of the night. What is wrong with her wanting to shop, and who says she has to buy things for anyone except herself. She can't ever leave and when she does leave, people say she is asking for it, why else would she go to public places. What is she suppoed to do? Hold fortress in her place all the time, then the press would be all over that saying she was secluded in her home. she can't win. they need to leave her alone before some dies over all this.

202. I think Brit is weeding out by recruiting this companion as her own private photog. Sorry TMZ. I hope she has every one of you arrested.

203. Check out the recorded body language. No romance1 No touching except hands, Nothing physical. This is business to control the image. Brit is a smart woman. It is time to gain control of the spin. She is doing it. Atta girl Brit! Kick some booty and make it good. How about getting the courts to test Kfed for substance abuse. The only positive thing Kfed has ever done is plant a seed to make beautiful babies. He just does not have a clue on how to support himself, let alone his kids. I bet he uses your childsupport to pay his other mother off. . Move on and move up. Get your boys back and put your life together. You can do it girl. Believe in yourself.

204. I don't know what is going on with this girl but I'm a mother. I have 3 kids all under the age of 6 and yes it's exhausting and nerve racking at times but she has nannnies or mannies whatever to help her, I don't i do it all on my own. i mean seriously what is this girl thinking she has 2 beautiful boys that need her an ex- husband Who is giving her chance after chance and she keeps blowing him off. What she needs is to be commited for a while. She's acting like a child. I honestly think that if the paps stop paying attention to her she'll go away.

205. Hello everyone! Don`t you see what is happening. KFed married this girl who was madly in love with him. He didn`t love her, not even from the beginning, or else he wouldn`t have treated her this way. She did everything for him and we looked at them and thought she must open her eyes. He abused her mentaly. Went to Vegas with his friends, Brit all torned up, he didn`t care one bit. Nothing is changes. Hes gonna get what he wants. Their to sons and her money too.........

Why doesn`t someone do anything for this pore girl. What about her parents. They must understand what`s going on????
He`s driving her in insane..
And she is the crazy one??!!!

206. why doesn't TMZ show the mugshots of these papparazzi that were arrested????

207. Even in an article that talks about her being hounded, you all try to find some way to call Britney crazy. She could have been killed. I think it's your insecurities that make you hate her and talk about her, even if her life is in danger. Pathetic.
