Britney Hires A Lawyer
Just about the first thing Britney Spears did after leaving rehab this morning was head to the office of lawyer Blair Berk, a woman known for going after over-aggressive paparazzi (Reese Witherspoon was a previous client). Could Britney be trying to nail the people responsible for taking pictures of her while in the Promises facility? Or could Britney be attempting to make some kind of case against the paparazzi for causing her emotional stress in general? This would seem like a flimsy claim, given the fact that, reportedly, the people at the hair-salon where Britney famously shaved her head initially closed the blinds for her, but Britney's bodyguard opened them again, presumably at Britney's behest. Because Britney wanted pictures taken of her shaving her head. Why? So the world could pity poor little Britney? Typical celeb - using the media to serve her purposes, then complaining when the media become too invasive. Of course, we're jumping to conclusions by saying Britney intends suing the paparazzi. Maybe she just went to say hello to Blair Berk. You know, cause she just likes dropping in on lawyers from time-to-time.
(By the way - Britney already has a high-powered divorce lawyer, Laura Wasser, so it's unlikely that her visit to Berk had anything to do with that.)
