Britney's Latest Pal -- A Chair?
Britney Spears had another rotating circus of pap pals this weekend -- as TMZ observed earlier -- but last night, it looks like she got hot and heavy with an inanimate object: a chair.
The owner of Millennium Dance Complex tells People that Brit was in doing "choreography" for her song "Hot as Ice," and that Spears "rehearsed an amazing routine with a chair." She spent nearly three hours at Millennium, and asked for a pap named Filipe when she left.
Earlier, she was at Petco, getting dog food and a birdcage. Looks like she'll surround herself with just about any life form these days.
