Brit's Pal Grilled Like a Cheeseburger

Sources tell TMZ K-Daddy's lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, was all over Sam Lutfi, Brit's close friend, like white on rice during his deposition today.Britney & Sam
We're told the depo, which ended just before 6:00 PM, covered a wide range of issues. Sources say Kaplan asked about the meds Brit takes, where she goes, what she does at home, what she drinks, and on and on.

Kaplan also asked Lutfi about his relationship with the photo agency X17 and specifically whether he and Brit have a financial deal where they help X17 get pics of Brit and in return get moolah. X17 has denied there's any deal.

We're told Kaplan asked Lutfi about his income and where he gets it, how he supports himself, etc. We're also told Kaplan asked him about six lawsuits in which he was reportedly sued. We're told Lutfi answered that most of those suits were against his father.

31. I do have to say that I find it very interesting that all the other sites are reporting about him going to the deposition today EXCEPT X17. I wonder why?!

34. Actually, Kaplan seams like a pretty damb good lawyer to have on your side. No one wants a nice lawyer, you want a shark. he is tenatious and doesn't let Britney get away with anything. Deposistions of witnesses happen all the time, and this is a pretty damb nasty custody battle. Not to mention, if this guy were hanging around my children I would want to know details.

Ps. I thinkg Sleazy is a given when you talk about lawyers

36. I don't know why anyone would think Sam Luffti or Adnan would do the deposition and not lie under oath. It's pretty obvious they are both very shady characters who are only after what they can get from Britney. Sam isn't going to say anything bad about her even under oath. He'll lie lie lie to keep his money train going.

I think it was set up by both of them, too.

I watched the 1st one on ET and saw it was pure promo for Britney.

Never intend to watch another one.

39. #33 I know I was thinking that too. Why would he tell the truth....then his money train would end. But if he does lie under oath then he may end up paying the ulitmate consequences one day and get locked up for perjury. I could be wrong about this. I have never been personally disposed so I am not sure if the same standards of perjury apply in a deposition as they do in court (i.e. jail time).

And remember Uncle Willie is making reference TO THE PAST. Who at 18 in Hollywood wasn't trying stuff? Nicole Richie is one of the worst but she met a guy, got pregnant out of wedlock and had a child so now everyone forgives & puts her on a pedestal because her "Wild Days" are over. Britney married her man and stopped working to start a family with Kevin and had 2 kids BUT she doesn't deserve that kind of respect?
As a matter of fact I think the media encourages & instigates Britney's outragious behaviour by being in her face in some of the most personal and emotional moments that they know she will get pissed and do something that will sell pics. They see her everyday - THEY KNOW she is likely Bi-Polar or such and play that for the almighty buck. Who's more disturbed?

41. I have to agree with Diane T comment at 10:11. Just is right that any parent has the right to know who is around their children when they are with the other parent and a parent who is acting irrational to say it nice. It does sound like it will take tough love with this woman to see some light and if it means he will not let her talk to them well I just see that he IS trying to make her see that she needs help.

42. Tonights interview was worse - when asked if he thought she is bi polar and such he responded a few times - I am not a doctor.

Tuff to lie - perjury is a huge thing in a depo

45. At least Britney has someone in her life who is there for her, as a friend and confidante. Without Sam, she would have no one by her side, no one in her corner. Britney's children are not in her life. Her parents are not in her life, her sister is not in her life, her cousin Alli is not in her life. Without Sam she would be all alone in the world, and that is a hard situation to be in, for anyone. Maybe that's What K-fed wants!!! At this time in Britney's life, Sam seems to be both her bodyguard (when she wants one), a manager, when he needs one, and a publicist, to clear up any lies, being printed by the media. Britney's mother should be happy that her daughter is not in the world all alone. And if she wants to know about Sam,all she has to do is call Alli and talk to her, Alli, Sam ,and Britney have all been very close friends for at least a couple years.
I find it quite funny that K-fed' lawyers are asking Sam where he gets his money from?! WHERE DOES K-FED GET HIS MONEY FROM?! K-fed has 4 children, to support, and doesn't have a job, and no income at all!! The lame T.V. show he appeared on for two minutes, was taped 6 months ago, and the only money, other than the few thousands he made from that is the $10.000 he made on New Years Eve. K-Fed probably worked a total of two weeks in all 2007. And he could have worked alot more, since he did not have sole custody until November 2007.
I don't know how a man in America can ONLY earn approx. $20,000 a year, ($10,000) of which he made New years day). So how exactly is Shar's 2 children with K-Fed being supported for the 365 days that makes up a year?! How is K-fed helping Shar to take care of his children he make with her? We know that Britney is paying her child support for her two boys? Is that the money that K-Fed has also been living off, and also skimming off to pay Shar. That is truly pathetic!!
Maybe K-fed should worry about how he is going to support his 4 children, and stop trying to control the people who are in Britney's life. The only things he need to know concerning them is if they have a criminal record, WHICH SAM DOES NOT! Asking questions about Sam's finances, has nothing to do with if Sam is a man who should be around children.
I didn't care for Sam the beginning, but now, I realize that the guy is someone Britney relies on, and perhaps the only friend she has right now, who truly cares about her well being.
