Britney's shady pal Sam Lutfi has told Barbara Walters that Britney is starting treatment for mental issues.
"There is a man named Sam Lutfi, who is the manager and very good friend of Britney," Walters said today on The View. "He has been staying with her constantly.
"He got in touch with us... I can't vouch for this... He seemed to be very knowledgeable and he certainly was very nice.
"He said Britney was suffering from what he describes as mental issues which are treatable.
"He said that she has been to a psychiatrist and ... I assume she is starting some kind of treatment.
"She has been having mood swings. She has been having some kind of trouble sleeping."
There are several alarming things about this. One, Sam Lutfi is now acting as Britney's spokesman. Two, Lutfi has Barbara Walters's number. Three, Barbara Walters is repeating shit Sam Lutfi told her. Four, Barbara Walters is still on the air. Five, Barbara Walters is still above ground.All lies. Everyone knows by now that Britney is not crazy and the whole thing is an act. Lutfi was simply helping to perpetuate the fiction of Britney's insanity by contacting Walters and telling her this crap. And why Walters? Because she is old and senile and no longer possesses even a shred of journalistic judgment. If some random person called Barbara and told her Vladimir Putin had been caught in a love-nest with Condoleezza Rice, Barbara would not even bother trying to find a corroborating source. She would go on the air with the story as if it were the gospel truth.
As for Britney...she hasn't ripped her clothes off in public lately, so that's good right?
