Does Britney Spears Sex Tape Exist?

Britney Spears has certainly been through enough scandal recently to last a lifetime. However, after her much publicized travails, including what appeared to be a breakdown, custody battles, and a stint in rehab, Britney Spears seemed to be getting her act together lately. She's been busy lately recording the "Womanizer" video for her new album and appeared to be staying out of trouble (for the time being).

But Britney Spears can never seem to avoid negative attention for very long. It seems that a Britney Spears sex tape has surfaced again. This time, ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib is said to be in possession of a Britney Spears sex tape. A while ago, there was Britney Spears sex tape controversy involving another mystery lover, as well as ex-husband Kevin Federline.

A few days ago, Ghalib was looking for a buyer for his Britney Spears sex tape, holding out for a "locked in deal." Today, Ghalib is denying he was ever in possession of a Britney Spears sex tape, claiming to be sorry that any speculation about the sex tape could have hurt his family.

I'm not a fan of Britney Spears and I don't follow her career, but the whole Britney Spears sex tape scandal has made me wonder why we place so much value and importance on Spears and her every move. And how could she, as a mother and a role model for young fans, be so careless as to be involved in not one, but several, Britney Spears sex tape scandals?

I wonder if the whole Britney Spears sex tape scandal (or hoax) wasn't secretly dreamed up to throw the spotlight on Britney as she promotes this new album and tries for a comeback tour. After all, news of a Britney Spears sex tape is just scandalous enough to drum up interest in her again (the existence of a sex tape certainly boosted the popularity of other stars like Pamela Anderson and Paris Hilton.) Then when the tape never surfaces, and she seems like an innocent victim of an insensitive ex boyfriend, perhaps this might create some public sympathy for her.

Britney Spears News:

Critics applaud Britney Spears's return to small screen

A GUEST appearance by Britney Spears gave the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother its highest viewership of the season, and assures the modest performer will be renewed for a fourth season in the northern autumn.

Mother pulled in about 10.6 million viewers, a huge spike from its season-to-date average of 7.8 million, according to Nielsen Media Research.

Critics were relatively impressed.

In the New York Post, Linda Stasi wrote: "You'd never know that pop tart Britney Spears had ever had a bad day in her life.

"Now clean and sober and under her dad's thumb once again, Britney looked as adorable last night as she did waaay back when.

"On the show, which she filmed in the last few weeks, Brit looked slim, (OK she was behind a desk), trim and gorgeous.

"And, more importantly, her acting was nothing short of adorably believable.Mother was the fourth-highest-rated show of the evening, and CBS won the night (averaging 12.5 million viewers), even as the rest of its comedy lineup dropped slightly from last week's record-setting return to original episodes.

Spears, 26, played love-struck receptionist Abby in a tattoo-removal clinic who falls for the main character, Ted. Spears spent two days filming the scenes. She last made a TV appearance with a guest role in the sitcom Will & Grace in 2006. She said in a statement issued two weeks ago, while shooting her scenes, that she was having "a blast."

How I Met Your Mother, narrated through flashbacks from the future, stars Josh Radnor as a man who is joined in his quest for true love by his lecherous pal, played by Neil Patrick Harris.

Producers said there were "no diva moments" and Josh Radnor, who plays Ted, told USA Today the cast tried to provide "a nice safe place" for Spears.

"It's a cute, funny role, and she ended up being great in it," he said.

"She's actually very vulnerable and sweet."

He went on: "We both screwed up our lines (during taping) and made fun of ourselves.

"She definitely has comedic instincts. She made funny line readings (during script read-throughs). That's the sign of a good comedic actor."

However, it had been claimed her co-stars struggled to work with her because she refused to take off her sunglasses until the cameras started rolling.

A show insider told the National Enquirer magazine: "Britney delivered her lines, but the show's actors had a tough time reading her expressions since they couldn't see her eyes at all.

"It's hard for an actor to make a connection when all he sees is his own reflection staring back at him in shiny dark glasses, but no one wanted to upset Britney by asking her to take them off.

"In the end, someone said to her, 'You will be taking the sunglasses off for the actual tapings, right?' To which Britney responded, 'Uh ... yeah!'"

How I Met Your Mother is shown on the Seven Network in Australia.

Meanwhile, Spears's life remains in the hands of her father Jamie, after a claim challenging his conservatorship was rejected yesterday.

Jon Eardley - who claims the troubled singer hired him to challenge Jamie's control of her estate and daily life because it violates her civil rights - filed a claim in the Los Angeles Court of Appeals, but the judge rejected it without even seeking a response from Jamie and co-conservator Andrew Wallet.

While Spears's team have always denied the 26-year-old asked Eardley to represent her, the lawyer has now produced a transcript of a phone conversation they had before Jamie was made responsible for his daughter.

In the call, Spears - who set up the call through a paparazzo friend and speaks in an English accent throughout the conversation - can be heard saying: "Basically I want my life back. I want to drive my car. I want to live in my house alone. I want to pick my own security, see who I want to see and make it happen."

Breaking News: Britney Spears

Anne Lu - Celebrity News Service News Writer

Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Britney Spears' dad is set to take her away from Los Angeles' decadent lifestyle. Jamie Spears, who was granted conservatorship over his famous daughter's affairs, is reportedly planning to force her to move back in to their family home in Louisiana.

Jamie's strategy is just one of his many plans to make certain Britney, 26, will stay away from "bad influences." Among his other ideas are a court request to keep her away from clubs, drugs, and her paparazzo boyfriend Adnan Ghalib.

An insider reveals, "Britney has been feeling lonely and isolated since her dad has taken control of her life. He hopes to take her back to Louisiana where she will be surrounded by her family."

"Jamie also hopes it will give her the chance to mend her troubled relationship with her mom and her recent rift with her pregnant sister. And he hopes to keep her away from the negative L.A. scene and people who've been using her."

After their sibling falling-out, Britney and her 16-year-old pregnant sister Jamie Lynn have reportedly been keeping in touch nowadays. The pop star is apparently giving the Nickelodeon star's soon-to-be-born child baby stuff and toys without regard to the price tags.

Meanwhile, Britney is also reportedly planning to open her own dance studio. She has recently been giving young children dance lessons and found it enjoyable.

A source tells celebrity blogger Perez Hilton's site, "It wil lbe right near Millenium [her favorite dance studio in the Valley]. And she plans to call it The Basement."

Spears manager "broke court plea"

Britney Spears is also embroiled in a custody fight over her two sons
Britney Spears' father tried to fire her business manager after he provided her with a car in violation of a court order, legal documents have shown.

Papers filed in a Los Angeles court state Howard Grossman had been asked to deliver a car to James Spears, who has temporary control of the star's estate.

But the 26-year-old was seen driving around Los Angeles shortly after being released from a psychiatric ward.

Mr Grossman has refused to confirm or deny whether he has been sacked.

It is also alleged he violated court orders by arranging meetings for Ms Spears and her lawyer against her parents' wishes.


BRITNEY'S UNHAPPY 2008
Britney Spears
3 January: Carried away on a stretcher after police were called in a custody dispute
5 January: Barred from seeing children
31 January: Taken to psychiatric ward by ambulance
1 February: Father James given control of her estate
5 February: Restraining order placed on Sam Lutfi
6 February: Released early from hospital (above)
8 February: Father can fire business manager, court says
Mr Spears has legal control of his daughter's affairs until Thursday.

"The temporary co-conservators have lost all confidence in their ability to work with Mr Grossman," Mr Spears wrote in papers submitted to the court.

Restraining order

Court Commissioner Reva Goetz gave Spears' parents the right to fire Mr Grossman after a private hearing last week.

James Spears' lawyer, Jeryll Cohen, said Mr Grossman claimed he delivered the car to the singer because she had requested it.

"He wanted to comply with her request because he wanted to 'build her confidence in him'," Mr Cohen said.

The legal papers also claim Mr Grossman refused to hand over e-mails from Sam Lutfi, Ms Spears' friend and sometime manager.

A restraining order has been put in place to prevent Mr Lutfi from contacting the singer, after her mother Lynne accused him of drugging her daughter and cutting off her phone lines.

Earlier this month her parents released a statement stating they were "concerned" about her health after she was released from hospital against the recommendation of her psychiatrist.

Spears Sex Tape

If Britney Spears didn't already have her hands full , she certainly does now. A raunchy sex tape starring the pop singer was leaked on the web.

The 30 minute video shows the shaven headed pop star performing sex acts with 2 unidentified females and a male companion.

During the video, the dazed Britney consumes alcohol and what appears to be cocaine and marijuana.

The tape will undoubtedly cause more problems for her already troubled custody battle with ex-hubby Kevin Federline.

Spears had to temporarily surrender custody of her sons to Federline because she defied a court order.

After-hour calls to attorneys representing Spears and Federline were not immediately returned.
