Train Wrecks
Britney Had Cosmetic Damage Before Crash

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.

64. I smell a big fat liar too. He said she was "putting on make-up", but when you look at the pictures from the scene, it's VERY clear that she's NOT wearing ANY make-up. Plus your back isn't going to hurt in a 10-15 mph bump. What a golddigging liar, he needs to hook up with Heather Mills.

65. 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.

66. that's right andy.

the doctor will x-ray you and send you to physical therapy. from there they teach you stretches that naturally re-align the bones, as well as strengthen the surrounding muscles to support those re-aligned bones.

or you can go to a strip mall and have someone jerk your spine around causing a BULDGING DISC.
next stop: the hospital for some surgery.

67. To "what a loser" (currently msg #60): replace all occurrences of "he" and "him" in your message with words like "she", "her", and "Britney", and I'll accept what you're claiming.

68. You also can get a stroke by simply _thinking_ about Britney Spears.

69. Also, look how dark it is! She wouldn't be able to even SEE to put on makeup! And, he wouldn't be able to see anything she was doing with her headlights in his face.

71. Mr. Chicken Stripper: Well, that ends my days going to the salon! Know where I can find a neurologist who is good with color and highlights? Actually, my stylist rolls a towel and puts it under my neck. Does that diminish the risk?

72. ^I meant the headlights on her car^

73. Pork Chop

You are correct. Orthopedic doctors only operate after all other attempts have failed.
Physical therapists know more about your spine than chiropractors.

74. Only in America. Lookin' for that ol' mighty free dollar. The minute he figured out Britney Spears rear ended him, I'm sure his back decided to hurt real quick! What a jackass. And I don't even like Britney

75. It was dark out but this guy could see into the car behind him and tell that the driver was putting on makeup?? How could he see with all of the headlights on the 405?? The lights would be blinding.

It seems to me that if he was watching the woman put on makeup in the cool car that was behind him, he himself wasn't watching the road. I think HE slammed on the brakes when he saw the car in front of him had stopped. His sudden stop caused Brit's car to bump into his.He then bumped the car in front of him. Keep in mind, if none of the three cars had a mark on them, it is doubtful if even HE hurt himself with his reckless driving.

Brit couldn't have hit him going 10 to 15 miles per hours, BTW. Go figure it out, TMZ. The guy is a liar.
