Brit Allegedly Tells Pap: I Will Kill You
Britney Spears allegedly went all gangsta on the photographer who got the smackdown from her bodyguard last week, threatening to kill him, and throwing a, um, baby bottle at his partner just to show how hardcore she really is.
According to the AP, photog Andrew Deetz is preparing to sue Spears, say his lawyers, after the scuffle last Thursday at Las Vegas' Wynn Hotel. Deetz alleges that after getting attacked by Spears' bodyguard, Britney herself threatened to kill Deetz and, according to his statement, said he should get a restraining order against her because either she -- or someone she "hired" -- would kill him.
Spears' lawyer had no comment last night. Spears' security man -- "J.C." Camera -- could face up to a year in the slammer if convicted of battery.
