Britney Spears Tracks the Paparazzi

Britney Spears is willing to do anything to have the paparazzi snap her. According, to sources Britney Spears is obsessed with gracing? tabloid magazines and it doesn’t matter for what.? “Britney is obsessed with keeping herself in the public eye. She has told me several times, “If they don’t see you [in the media], they forget you…. I’m not going to let that happen!’ “, the source said.

“Even though her professional career and personal life are train wrecks and she seemingly is paying little attention to her appearance, she is doing everything she can to make sure she’s photographed almost daily,” a former Britney insider who’s still in touch with Spears’ current staff told.

Key staff members of several high-profile hotels, including the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills and the Beverly Wilshire have also said the same thing.? They said that Spears or one of her posse members makes daily calls to all the hotels as well as various popular restaurants, nightclubs and upscale boutiques to “find out what’s going on … who’s there today,”. This allows her to determine if stars will be present, to guarantee the paparazzi will be lurking outside.

Sometimes, Spears’ approach backfires. A staffer at the Four Seasons told she purposely told the entertainer “we were holding a [press] junket here for ‘Rendition,’ ” starring Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal, who allegedly have been having a fling. In fact, those interviews took place Friday at the Beverly Wilshire, so when Spears arrived at the Four Seasons, there were no paparazzi to be seen.

“Britney walked in the front door and immediately turned on her heel, walked out and got back in her car and took off in a huff,” said my source, with a laugh.
