Britney’s Ex-Manager Could Pay Her Legal Bills

Britney Spears’ former manager, Sam Lutfi, may be obliged to pay the singer’s enormous $123,142 legal bills, which were incurred in their courtroom battle over a restraining order.

The poisonous former-handler had the pair of giant brass balls on him to take Spears to court over withholding all the Cheeto dust for herself. As we all know, Cheeto dust is solely the realm of the Cheesy One, and so a judge told Lutfi to get bent and enforced a three-year restraining order.

I have a sneaking suspicion that this one is not going to fly. But just in case it does, I shall set up camp outside the home of the Greasy One and sit, patiently waiting with camera in hand, to capture his reaction.

Lawyers for the singer asked a Los Angeles court last Friday to order Lutfi, who once was her manager, to pay $123,142 to cover Spears’s legal fees for the courtroom battle over the restraining order.

In addition, her lawyers are seeking $129,922 from Jon Eardley, an attorney who has challenged Jamie Spears’s control over his daughter, and $72,292 from her ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib. Both Eardley and Ghalib were also ordered to stay away from the pop star. A judge has yet to sign off on the request. (via People)

Fascinating fact #432,944, while looking for the above photo, I had oodles and oodles of fun searching through my Agency archive for “Britney Spears + Sam Lutfi” – with no less than say six solid pages of legal papers to wade through. Never seen anything like it. It was worth digging through all the records, of all the times this man has been dragged to court, just so that I could find a Britney 1.0 photo of the starlet looking a hot, greasy mess with her boobles* hanging out.
