Britney Had Cosmetic Damage Before Crash

Posted Apr 13th 2008 5:51PM by TMZ Staff

Minutes before Britney Spears caused a three car crash on a Saturday night, she was driving the same way most women in L.A. do -- putting on her makeup behind the wheel!

TMZ spoke with the guy she hit, who says before the accident, he was admiring the white Mercedes and the woman putting on makeup while driving it. It wasn't until after she hit him at an estimated 10-15 MPH that he realized the woman was Britney. The man also says he wasn't sure if she was still putting on makeup at the time of the crash.

After the smash up, Britney's bodyguard apologized for the incident, but Britney never got around to doing the same. Brit and the 21-year-old crashee only exchanged a few words, but she did mention she was on the way to dinner with her mom.

As far as the field sobriety test is concerned, the crashee says officers performed the ol' "follow my finger test" on Brit. At first she was giggly, but she got real serious real quick. BTW -- she was the only person involved who was tested. CHP claims the test was S.O.P. telling us, "We do a standard check on most drivers .... especially during those hours."

While no injuries were reported on the scene, the man claims that he woke up with a sore back this morning and is looking into booking an appointment with a chiropractor.

55. To melody90405: that's the second-most preposterous Shift-The-Blame-Away-From-Britney rationale for this accident that I've heard so far. Number one is the assertion (in one of the other TMZ threads) that this happened because Britney's mom slept with K-Fed.

Wait a minute ... I've got it! This happened because K-Fed was driving the car in front of Britney, and Lynne Spears was also in the car, sleeping with him right then and there while they were going down the freeway. But at the moment when she asked,"is it in yet?", he lost his cool and slammed on the brakes, thereby causing the pile-up.

Then, when the cops arrived, Lynne slept with each and every one of them, plus with every other witness on the road, male and female alike, plus all of the paparazzi, to convince all of them not to put any of the blame on her or K-Fed.

Yep. That's it. Find a scapegoat so that Britney never has to take responsibility for anything she does ... _ever_ ...

60. Hi I'm With Pork Chop Honey Bun On This One:

A person can also experience a stroke as a result from receiving a shampoo at a hair salon. The aorta can be distended with tragic results...Mr. Chicken Stripper is a neurologist and has had several patients that have stroked out that have had their hair done in the previous 24-48 hours.
