Brittney Spears files for divorce from K-Fed

**Terminator** · 11-08-06, 01:03 PM

Britney Spears appeared upbeat, if a little off balance, as she took to the ice skating rink at New York's Rockefeller Center just hours after filing for divorce in Los Angeles.

The 24-year-old pop star cited "irreconcilable differences" in court papers filed Tuesday seeking dissolution of her marriage to aspiring rapper Kevin Federline.

As seen in a video posted late Tuesday by the entertainment Web site TMZ.com, Spears — bundled up in a striped sweater and fuzzy white hat — looked happy as she rounded the world-famous rink. Maybe that's because the curtain had finally fallen on her problem-plagued romantic life, a drama that played out publicly in magazines and on television over the past two years.

Spears wed Federline in the fall of 2004. They had a ceremony in September, but court papers state that the couple were officially married Oct. 6.

It was nonstop drama from there.

Magazines couldn't get enough of the pair, documenting their every tender gesture and teary-eyed fight. The couple contributed to the coverage with their self-filmed reality TV show, "Britney & Kevin: Chaotic." The tabloid depicted him as a party-goer living off his wife's fame and fortune. She was painted as a bumbling mother with fading figure and visage. Her chart-topping career all but imploded.

It was the first marriage for Federline, 28, though he was still dating his pregnant girlfriend Shar Jackson when he met the pop star. Jackson gave birth to Federline's second child just months before he married Spears.

It was the second marriage for Spears, whose 55-hour union with childhood friend Jason Alexander ended in annulment.

Spears and Federline have two children: Sean Preston, who turned 1 on Sept. 14, and an infant son, Jayden James, born Sept. 12. Spears is seeking "legal and physical" custody of both.

She declared in court papers that she and Federline have no community assets, which indicates they had a prenuptial agreement and don't want to disclose their divorce settlement to the court, said Leon Bennett, a Los Angeles divorce attorney who does not represent either party.

The filing came a day after Spears, back in shape after the birth of her second child, made a surprise appearance on David Letterman's "Late Show" in New York by popping up behind him as he was sitting at his desk.

Born in Kentwood, La., in 1981, Spears got her first taste of fame at age 11 when she joined the "The All New Mickey Mouse Club" TV show. Her fellow Mouseketeers included future superstars Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera.

Five years after Spears left the show she released her debut album, "Baby One More Time." In the video for the title track, Spears, still a teenager, dressed provocatively in a skimpy school uniform and moaned "baby, baby, baby." Yet she proclaimed her chastity, insisting she remained a virgin throughout her four-year relationship with Timberlake.

By 2003, Spears had fully embraced her sex-charged image, sharing an open-mouthed kiss with Madonna during the MTV Video Music Awards. That same year, she revealed in an interview with W magazine that she had lost her virginity to Timberlake.

Federline appeared in the 2004 movie "You Got Served" and performed as a backup dancer for Timberlake, Pink and Michael Jackson. He released his debut CD, "Playing With Fire," on Oct. 31. In an interview with The Associated Press two weeks ago, he praised Spears as a positive force in his life.

"Her influence on me has been really big," he said. "She's a strong woman and she knows what she wants out of life and that helps build a strong man. I look up to you baby."

Calls placed to attorneys for Federline and Spears were not returned Tuesday.

she's like me got married to have kids

**Virginian** · 11-08-06, 01:10 PM

I'm afraid she saw me on the street here in Virginia when she was shopping and fell instantly in love. Guess I've got a new stalker!

**BigDawg** · 11-08-06, 02:02 PM

Damn, this means she is going to want me to start paying child support again. Just when I thought I could maybe save some money this happens!!!

Here is hilarious video footage from this past Monday where Brittney dumps Kevin via text message. He'd been blabbing all day about how great she was, how she loved and supported him, and then BLAM, K-Fed gets owned....classic tv moment:

I knew it was only a matter of time. Divorces in Hollywood are as common as illegal immigrants in California - they're everywhere.

Also, I think it's pathetic that she apparently divorced him via text message. What happened to one-on-one verbal communication? I guess the technology and cyber world has taken over...

**TheOldRhino** · 11-08-06, 04:15 PM

why is it the hotties are drawn to the talentless, jobless, dirtbags? i swear if I had to do it all over again, I'd run around with my pants around my knees and not have a job until some hot sugar mama came a long. Then I'd just mistreat her so I'd know she'd never leave me.

That's where K-Fed messed up- he should have kept talking smack about her... then she would have stuck around. Maybe even blacken an eye or two.

**BrickCop** · 11-08-06, 10:01 PM

She has to be the stupidest broad I've ever seen- and that's saying something with all the nutjob celebs out there. The love of her life was an unemployed dancer with 1 kid and a 9 months pregnant girlfriend when she met him.

Spears was dopey enough to believe he was somehow marriage material. I hope that baggy pants deadbeat soaks her for millions....

**Cst.SB** · 11-08-06, 10:10 PM

I love the nickname switch, K-Fed to Fedex!

bull3032 or Virginian, if either one of you start spearing Brittney, I want photos of her!

**Willowdared** · 11-08-06, 11:39 PM

I bet her mommy regrets making her get that annulment from her 1st hubby!

If any of you guys wind up even laying a fingernail on that skank, then I will attend any and all LEF gatherings we have wearing a gasmask

and carrying a big can of lysol and some hand sanitizer. Seriously. That is one nasty piece of ass. She, Paris Hilton, and Nichole Richie all fell out of the same pair of skeezy underwear.

I've noticed the same thing, and I agree whole heartedly..

Pot smoking, jobless (or minimum wage earning) asswipes going no where, wander around and have to beat attractive women off of them with a board.

21 year old Deputy Sheriff with a good job, grounded, and going places in life... And I'm lucky enough to have one date every once in a while, let alone have the benefit to choose who I'm going to take out.. Sometimes I wonder why the fuck I even try..

That because they think their love will "save them."

Of course, men always want the hotties, leaving us good-hearted, but not so hot ladies sitting in the corner waiting for someone to ask us to dance.
