Gossip: Britney Spears
Representatives for Britney Spears denied reports that the pop singer’s agent-turned-boyfriend had physically abused her.
Representatives for Britney Spears this week denied reports that the pop singer’s agent-turned-boyfriend, Jason Trawick, had physically abused her. Spears’ ex-husband, Jason Alexander, told Star magazine this week that Spears was “in an abusive relationship” with Trawick and that she had confessed in a phone call that her life had become a “nightmare.” An audio recording purported to be a conversation between Spears and Alexander hit the Internet shortly thereafter, featuring a female voice, allegedly that of Spears, complaining that Trawick “beat on her” and blackened her eye. Spears’ camp called the tape an “obvious fake” and said that Trawick “has never laid a hand on Britney.” Her attorneys say they’ll sue everyone involved in the allegation.
