Lutfi to Britney's Family: You Don't Fit In!

Posted Jan 29th 2008 5:03PM by TMZ Staff

Sam Lutfi called Harvey Levin a few minutes ago, Britney by his side, and railed about the story we posted that Brit's family believes Lutfi is poison.

Lutfi said there was no intervention last night, but then said Britney's family "barged in." For the record, the family is staging an intervention and Lutfi has been kept in the dark.

Lutfi said of the family, "They have an agenda. Their agenda is jealously because they don't fit in. I do. They see her three times a year."

Britney was by the phone during Lutfi's conversation with Levin. Lutfi claimed he did not force Britney to buy a car, asking Brit, "Did I force you to buy a car." In a heavy southern accent she responded, "No." He continued, "Do I ever bug you." She replied, "We argue."

Lutfi said Britney's mom is fine with him -- it's her dad who's a problem. Family sources tell TMZ that's baloney -- both Lynne and Jamie "are on the same page," feeling like Sam is a "megalomaniac" who is motivated by "evil."

Stay tuned ...

31. Britney you stupid heifer! Let Sam get lost for awhile and let your Mama help you get some help so you can get your life back on track. Do you ever want to see your kids again without a babysitter watching your every move? Has Sam helped you do that in all the time he's been there? Then what does that tell you? He's got a motive as well and it doesn't involve what's best for you and your kids. Think about that. I'm sure they miss YOU so much. Lose Sam!

36. I'm scared for Brit. She should read the Blender article that came out yesterday. It's thoughtful and compassionate. Maybe the article will prompt her to a) seek treatment for herself and b) eject the negative, leaching people from her life. Lutfi sounds like he's manipulative and dangerous. I know, from my own experience, that it can be difficult to leave someone who has worked to isolate you from friends and family. But it can be done. I agree with the sentiment of the Blender article that Britney needs a friend -- someone outside entertainment, someone who will give it to her straight, someone who isn't on the payroll. I like Britney, always have -- she's super talented. But she's going through a bad spell and I hope she finds the strength to work her way through it.

37. I was on the fence about this guy, but he just totally blew it for me when he said Britney's family, "have an agenda. Their agenda is jealously because they don't fit in. I do. They see her three times a year."

I don't care how much they don't "fit in," they are still her parents. Her father Jamie seems to me to be the most common-sense one out of the bunch. Now I'd really like dear Osama to take a hike. His little phone calls to everyone - TMZ, Barbara Walters - are showing just how un-professional he really is. This man is not a "manager" by any means - he's a wannabe. And that's all.

38. He is definitely Howard K Stern to Britney aka Anna Nicole. But it doesn't matter because she is so trashy and dysfunctional, she will only attract another loser to her inner sanctum. Sick attracts Sick.

They all need to stop. He needs to shut up, the mom needs to stop playing to the media also and Britney needs to go away forever. Louisiana or a desert island, something long term. Enough of all this trash!

40. This whole world needs therapy.... Lufti can go first.

41. OMG The family doesnt fit in really???? Maybe cause she has people like him convincing her of such a thing. And whats up with him always calling some media and asking brittany questions in the background. I know that brittany has mental issues but i really do feel bad for her it seems like everyone is pulling her like a tug of war. And these media hungry ass holes with comments like the family dont fit in is ridiculous. So keep making your money off of a bipolar millionaire, thats your only chance at making money Jerk! Are you Lufti also giving her advice that the court hearing arent fitting into her schedule either what an idiot preying on someone so fragile.

42. THIS GUY IS EVIL! HE IS USING BRIT FOR MONEY AND POWER! HE IS CRAZY!

43. Wise up people. Brit hasn't been in the news enough over the last week, so she staged a another tantrum and got some more press coverage.

As usual, she's just playing games to get attention. What a loser.

44. I think Sam seems to be good for her, why hate on him? He is protective and always there for her and not looking to get a piece.

45. Get your Child the help she desperately needs. You are one hell of a fine Mother. Brit, off the deep end, Little Jamie 16 and Preggers. I don't doubt that you love your kids, I do however think you SUCK as a parent. You were poor and pushed and rode Brit all the way to the Mental ward, after many stops off at the bank.

Shame!
