UPDATED! The Bodyguard is the New Butler: He Did It- The Continuing Story of Spears Vs. Federline
Is it just me, or does today feel like an episode of Spears of Our Lives? (it was either that or As the Fed Turns)
TMZ has followed up with the identity, kind of, of the witness pictured earlier. His name is Tony and he’s a former bodyguard, and he’s got some stuff to say. What’s up with it always being the bodyguard? That’s like the 2007 version of ‘the butler did it.’
More from the good folks at TMZ. Who needs FOX?
Tony isTony Barretto, a former bodyguard for Spears. He was employed by Spears from the time she left rehab until he was
fired on May 17 because, according to his attorney, “He did not hear her when he was
asked to pick up her hat.”
Barretto came forward due to his being “very concerned” about the welfare of her two boys. He is a father of young children himself. He filed a
declaration which
alleges “nudity, drug use and safety issues post-rehab.”
Gloria
Allred, Barretto’s attorney, stated in a press conference that he was prepared to testify under oath today,
but that his declaration went “unrefuted and
unchallenged.”
The guy doesn’t look prepared to testify. Doesn’t he own a tie? What is he wearing, courtroom casual?
