Kevin Federline offered $50 million for rights to four-hour sex video he made with Britney Spears
http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/story_pages/showbiz/showbiz1.shtml

SUPERSTAR Britney Spears is facing a mega divorce payout because she did it again and again and again...on a HONEYMOON sex video. Dumped husband Kevin Federline has been touting the four-hour tape for sale and has already been offered £26 MILLION. A film company wants to make it available online to fans around the world.

One close pal said: "This vid is dynamite and Kev knows it." And the News of the World can also reveal that Britney slapped divorce papers on Federline—who had already been linked with hookers—after she caught him in a bedroom with another woman.

Britney, 24, fears the raunchy footage will destroy her wholesome image unless she caves in to his demands for a £16million payoff and custody of their children Sean Preston, one, and Jayden James, eight weeks. She is worried she will become infamous like Paris Hilton —whose home-made sex video, was put on the internet by her ex and became one of the world's most popular sites.

Federline, 28, has bragged to pals that his X-rated tape shows the Oops, I Did It Again singer performing a series of explicit sex acts. The home-made video is believed to show the naked couple enjoying an uninhibited range of love-making and sexual games.It was made during the first weeks of their relationship two years ago when they were holed up in one of the exclusive bungalows at the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles.

12. It's only hot and explosive if people are willing to buy it
Those who would want this blackmail to fail will do best to not purchase the vid, nor give it any promotional press.

10. 103.7 was asking about this this morning
BTW -that is NOT the local NPR station :crazy:

They had three women call in and say they had made sex tapes.

Marc Marin (formerly of Air America) had a whole stand up bit about having a local sex tape section at neighborhood video stores.

7. She's made some horrible choices in her young life.
Making a sex video with that idiot was a really, really horrible one. Would she really give up custody of her children to preserve her image? I certainly hope not.

Her mom cashed in on that gravy train when Britney was all of 17. It's disgusting.

16. It's one of those "I'll never understand" scenarios...
For starters, everyone except Britney saw this guy as a scumbag from day 1. C'est la vie, she's an adult, and that was her choice. But what happens? We get to the end of the trail and he pulls a stunt like this. He didn't care about the mother or kids from the first marriage (he left her for Britney while she was carrying the second one), so it's sad and disgusting but it doesn't stop me from asking the question "How could she not see this coming?"

14. you think a court wouldn't give her custody because she had sex w/ her hubby?
If I were a judge, I'd rather she had custody than the man who blackmailed the kid's mom....

18. I agree - but -
would Britney voluntarily cave and give up custody (no court, no judge) just to keep that tape from the public?

20. you've got to be kidding
we are talking about a sex tape she made with her husband on her honeymoon

if a young woman is not allowed to be sexual on her damn honey moon with her own husband, when it is allowed?

i doubt she signed away the rights for the use of her image, so i don't know the legalities of kfed being able to sell this tape legally without her permission, that is for them, their attorneys, and the courts to decide

but crap making a sex tape is a pretty normal part of being young and in love, if you don't even trust the man you just married, you might as well shoot yourself now, because your careful life is the living definition of hell on earth

now, me, i wouldn't have married the toy boy in the first place but we've got to assume she actually loved the man she chose to marry and father her children, at least before he made it plain that he was only with her to make a buck

it is very hard at that level of celebrity and economic earning level for a woman to find an equal who isn't just out to grab her dollars, realistically, it probably wasn't ever going to happen, hell even a smart woman like reese witherspoon is getting divorced

what we need to do is stop teaching young women that if they're in love they need to run and out get married, a high income woman needs to be realistic about just exactly what she needs a man for -- she DOESN'T need him in her finances just because she loves him, the world does not work that way

25. thanks.
I agree. The fairy tale stuff is just insane, especially where the breeding impulse and lust are concerned. I think her mistake was she believed in fairy tales and love at first site and all that. And someone that young can't be told anything. I think that this whole thing is extremely unfortunate. Whatever their marital problems and however rich she is it's a shame that she's having her life destroyed to the extent that it is. No one deserves that. I'm glad she at least has her children to console her. I don't think this video will hurt her career, really...though I have never seen any of those 'celebrity sex videos' so I don't know if that messes with your head to have those images in your mind every time you see a celebrity. I think she should just let him do it, that way it will look really really bad for him in court. It's funny how on that reality show they kept talking about how her bodyguards couldn't stand K-fed at first and one of them almost beat him up once because they thought he was just along for the ride. I've always thought from the beginning he was lying about his feelings for her...some interview they did on one of those shows where they were going on about how much they loved each other and you could just tell that he was lying and didn't really mean it.

11. If Britney was smart and had a copy of the video
I'd give it away to someone for free with the stipulation that all profits go to charity. I mean, the video is gonna be released and there are folks who will buy the thing. If she undercuts him on the video and sets it up for charity she could come out on top of this one!

21. that's actually a clever idea
Edited on Mon Nov-13-06 01:57 PM by pitohui
however, assuming they are BOTH in the video, seems to me that they would BOTH have to agree to the use of their explicit images to put the tape out there legally

i think either kfed or the writer of this article or both are talking out of their ***

you can't legally produce a porno without getting signed releases from the people in the video

yes, yes, you say, paris hilton, but i think anyone who stops and thinks about it knows that paris hilton authorized that video that got out by way of her boyfriend, it made her as a celebrity and was her only option to stand out in a crowd of other heiresses, it was not something that just happened against her will

i don't see how you can assume the video is gonna be released, it would be pretty stupid of kfed to do this, the damages he could potentially owe to britney could wipe out not just what he is paid for the video but everything he could potentially earn for the rest of his life ever

now if this is just one more of those two's publicity stunts, yeah, then it will get out, with the intent of getting britney back off the has-been circuit and back into the headlines, i wouldn't put it past them to go that route

but there is no way such a porno can be legally distributed without consent of the actors involved, i have never heard of such a thing being attempted without serious financial consequences to the distributors and producers

23. That's exactly what she should do. But, she'd do something lame and only..
...donate, like 25% or so to charity. I don't think she's smart enough, nor are her advisers smart enough, to do what you said. She could take her career to a whole
new level. If a nobody like Paris Hilton can use a sex tape to launch a career, why can't Brit restart hers?

26. Good, but she should hold off until she has exhausted all legal options
to block it.

In fact, she should make it widely known that she will fight release of the tape, but if she loses in court, she will release the tape for free. It not only takes away Fed's money, it takes away his incentive to release the tape. He could wind up fighting to keep it hidden, even.

32. If she's got a copy and releases it first...
she should first have some post production special effects done-- a little reduction for K-Fed.

29. Agreed....
I suspect he is demanding custody of their kids, so Spears will be obligated to send him huge child support checks and alimony. He didn't seem to be overly concerned about gaining custody of his first two children by his previous girlfriend.

Then again, Spears has done some pretty stupid things like driving with her baby in her lap.

41. I'm not saying she deserves what he is trying to do....
I meant that he may (and I'm giving him way too much credit here) think he's justified in trying to get custody of their kids because of the driving incident. Didn't she also drop their first baby?

I highly doubt that he would be a better parent, though. Poor kids.

24. the writer of this article does not understand video rights
he states that kfed can sell the film because it's "his" film which is utterly ridiculous

everyone who has ever sold a sex film knows that you have to jump through the hoops to provide the releases from all actors in the film

if you are missing one signature and have no proof that that person in the film agreed to its distribution, you're screwed, you can't sell or distribute that film

the whole story is bogus and almost reads like a puff piece to hype the film

if it gets out, it will only be because behind the scenes britney is giving permission for it to get out there in hopes of profiting from a more sexual image just as paris hilton did

my three cents (inflation)

wow. I wonder if she would really do this...I know they can go to court and get an injunction like Pamela Anderson and Brett whatever did (that guy from Poison). It slays me that famous people have sex on video and expect it not to leak out. It's like, hello...

It's blackmail, pure and simple. He wants the money. He gets the money. He doesn't post it on the net. Otherwise, hello, Britney.

39. Re: "He *can't* sell the tape without a release..."




Sure he can. Not legally in the US, but he can sell it. The current offer is from overseas. So he sells it there, takes the cash and deposits it in an offshore account with all the other big dirty American money, outside of American jurisdiction, control and subpoena power.

The vid is linked via the foreign host site.

Good luck prosecuting him.

28. Poor kid has a made a mess of her life, hasn't she?
She did a lot of good after Katrina, and I just can't hate her the way some people do just because a lot of silly kids bought her CDs. She's just a young woman betrayed by her husband and stuck with two kids and a bad case of spousal jackassedness. Happens all the time where I grew up. The only real difference between Britney's travails and those of, say, my sister, is that when the jackass deadbeat husband leaves, Britney has a lot more cash than my sister. And no one would pay millions to see my sister's sex ta... wait, I don't want to go there!

Good luck, Britney. Rot in Hell, K-Fed, or whatever other poser name you wind up with.

30. PEOPLE! Never take your clothes off in front of a camera!
It seems my wife and I are the only ones who have not felt the need to take naked pictures of each other. I've heard too many stories of pics falling into the wrong hands. It seems nearly inevitable. Don't do anything on camera that you don't want the world to see.

Now, if you WANT the world to see, that's another story altogether.

You know that old saying, "God takes care of babies and drunks"? Well, I think he takes care of idiots, too. I'm hoping someone takes care of this stupid girl, because I don't think she's evil. I think she's kind of sweet. :shrug:
