Tabloid Hell: Kevin tries to have Britney arrested?
Kevin Federline is reportedly heading to the Los Angeles Superior Court this morning alleging that ex-wife Britney Spears was driving without a license at the weekend.
Spears has regularly been seen lately with her two young children Jayden James and Sean Preston in the car, despite the fact that she does not have a California drivers license.
Life & Style.com is reporting that as part of the custody battle for the two children,Federline's laywer Mark Vincent Kaplan will allege she has been committing driving offenses.
Spears was involved in a hit and run in August when she ran into a parked car in a car park in Los Angeles and fled the scene, despite the fact that the incident was filmed and photographed by paparazzi. She faces up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine if convicted.
Meanwhile, the Chicago Sun Times today is today reporting that Spears is "is doing everything she can to make sure she's photographed almost daily."
The report says that "Sources at both the Four Seasons and Beverly Wilshire told me the singer and actress often calls the hotels herself, asking "What press junkets are going on today?" -- to determine if stars will be present, to guarantee the paparazzi will be lurking outside." |

Madonna's adoption hits snag
Madonna's adoption of a Malawian baby has hit a snag.
The official assigned to the case was refused permission to travel to the UK.
Social worker Penstone Kilembe was due to monitor the child's progress in two trips to Madonna's home in London.
However he said that the Malawian government have now stopped the visits, with reports suggesting that a different official would now travel to London.
Kilembe, who is director of Malawi's child welfare services, was appointed by the High Court of Malawi to check on the child's welfare and report to the court and the ministry at least twice.
He said: "The whole adoption process may crumble and David (may be) sent back to his village."
However, Malawi News reported that the country's minister of Women And Child Development, Kate Kainja, accused Kilembe of obtaining an air ticket and money from Madonna without government approval, reports BBC News.
She said: "We feel Mr Kilembe personalised the whole issue when other people can go."
However, Kilembe denied the accusations.
Madonna was granted an 18-month interim custody order which enabled her to take one year old David Banda out of Malawi last October.
The adoption will only receive final approval once it has been shown that the child is being properly cared for.
