Update: K-Fed (Fed-Ex) offers to sell Britney the tape for $30 million and custody of their two kids
http://thesuperficial.com/2006/11/kevin_federline_to_sell_sex_ta.html

In the smartest - and sleaziest - move yet, Kevin Federline is using his alleged 4-hour sex tape with Britney Spears to leverage custody of the children and $30 million. He's already been offered $50 million by companies wanting to distribute it on the web, but says he'd sell it back to Britney for $30 million and custody of their two kids. A source close to Federline says:

"At the time the two of them were in the honeymoon stages of the relationship and couldn't keep their hands off each other. They did nothing all day but have sex - and play the odd game of chess. They were insatiable and they believed they would be together forever. Britney didn't think twice about making the video at the time. She mistakenly believed that their love would last. They adored filming each other. They lived their lives in front of the cameras - even making a short-lived reality TV show of their exploits. Sex was no different to them, it seems. Now this video could prove very costly to her. Millions of people will be prepared to pay to watch. Kevin has told Britney she should comply with his demands otherwise the whole world will see her having sex, which will be devastating. At the moment Kev is in talks with a company in Arizona about putting the four-hour sex vid online. If it all goes to plan he'll make <$50 million> from it."


If Britney doesn't cave and hand over the children I'm sure a judge will. Because when you see a man of such moral character and integrity as Kevin Federline there's no way you can deny him the privilege of raising children. This guy makes Abraham Lincoln look like Hitler.

4. The folks at "The Superficial" sometimes get emotionally caught up in their stories...
...and as a result, questions arise.

25. It's exreme sarcasm.
Edited on Tue Nov-14-06 12:47 PM by primate1
Basically saying <sarcasm>"K-Fed is such a great guy,"</sarcasm> to get across the point that he's a total scumfuck. Goes with the sarcastic tone of that whole paragraph.

5. I just don't understand how it would be "devastating" for the tape to get out
She was having sex with a man she eventually married, so who the hell cares? I think she should laugh at his ridiculous demands and release the tape herself.

7. I imagine her releasing this news to the world is her way of ensuring he'll lose.
If there's a shred of truth to this story, he's walking away with nothing. He played a bad hand.

8. Maybe because she has no career at this point...
...other than being Kevin Federline's "ex"...

Her pre-Federline career was based largely on image, and the K-Fed years have changed the public perception. So who knows...she keeps talking about a "comeback," but will that fill a need other than her own?

You're right...on all counts...so the only "devastating" aspect I can see would be if her image-makers think there's a shred of the "Mouseketeer" credibility left.

I think the time has come for Britney to call Karl Rove. I'm sure he can help.

:evilgrin:

6. I'm having trouble picturing a post coital Britney Spears sitting down to a challenging chess match
Doesn't anybody just cuddle any more? No, it's all about castling the king and changing the batteries on your camcorder these days.

9. He's digging his own grave
She's stupid but he is surely a piece of $hit.

IF he cared about those kids, why would he put a video like that out of his mother for them to see when they get older?
That point alone will bury him.

10. I'm not a legal expert BUT.....
...Isn't this just outright blackmail? I know your reply was sarcastic (which is fine with me), but seriously - why would a judge give the kids to a man who uses them as part of blackmail?

Doesn't Britney have some legal course for this clear example of blackmail?

11. That's exactly what I thought when I read this.
Seems to me that this is outright blackmail and/or extortion and illegal.

12. Forget the sex tape - I want to see a video of the chess games
I'm imagining they're chock full of machine-gun noises, made-up rules, and other rampant stupidity...

32. I had the same reaction -- Chess? Chess?
What, do the toss the pieces back and forth? Build things with the pieces as if they are legos? Try to flick them through the other players finger "goalposts"?

I've got to see these to Mensa members play chess. I really do.

14. So out of mild curiousity
Why does he want custody of the kids? He does not seem like someone dying because he misses his kids that much. He is playing them as an angle for something. Wonder what?

21. No kids - no money
If he has the kids then he can force her to pay for child custody, which will probably go from the kids bank accounts and into his pockets.

He signed a pre-nup that basically guarentees him $300k a year for half the time they were married (which was officially 2 years married - 1 year alimony). Clearly the guys has no source of income for his extravagent lifestyle, which from what I've read she married him when her networth was about $70mil and now her networth is down to $25mil.

24. You know I was afraid that was what it was
Please let someone in the courts make some sane decision for these two children. Because quite frankly, we are not talking the best genetic material to begin with, and to have Britney being the best parenting choice simply because she is not using the children as leverage to make money does not bode well either. K-Fed has hit a new highpoint in jackass-ery.

18. GIVE THE TAPE AWAY FOR FREE, BRIT!
Then ol' K-FED gets NADA.

Besides, to anyone of whom there is a bronze statue of her on all fours, pregnant, with the li'l nipper's head already sticking out of you know where, well, this is sort of "gilding the lily," nes ne pas?

26. Even if she gave in, he'd still sell the tape
He wants to do it badly, or he wouldn't be playing it this way. He knows she's not going to give him the kids or $30 million. He wants to have an excuse in his pathetic little head to release that tape. He's a greedy man who knows his meal ticket is up.

27. Devastating? Like Paris Hilton?
Most of the world never heard of Paris Hilton until the sex tape came out, now she's everywhere.

Madonna's nudes from her art modeling days surfaced, then she put out her own book SEX and appeared nude in several movies, and I really think that all gave her career a second wind.

If the Britney sex tapes are released, she can just move into more "grown up" music... or not. In today's "porn star" culture, I'm sure no teenage girls or boys would be alienated by it... might even revitalize her career after a few years doing the birthin' babies bit. Plus, if she stands up to the blackmail, that's certainly a more positive example than caving in out of fear to blackmail, only to have "bootleg" copies surface after the fact (which is inevitable).

29. I bet they played a very odd game of chess.
I am really trying to picture it. Probably more interesting than the sex thing.

36. Remember when Paris Hilton was in a career doldrums, then a sex tape surfaced...
then she got, like, tv work and a recording deal? Remember when Tommy Lee couldn't get work as a karaoke DJ and Pamela Anderson was, well, Pamela Anderson, and then that sex tape came out? They sort of became relevant again.

So long as KidRock isn't in it, a sex tape can help a career take off again. Seems to be too much of a coincidence that this is getting so much publicity.
