Britney Spears driving last night in Los Angeles

Remember when Britney Spears got lip injections a few weeks ago? I guess it's embarrassing to her or something because Britney's trying to play off her swollen lips as the result of a minor accident in which her car's airbag deployed into her face. No, seriously. Mike Walker of the National Enquirer reports:

Britney Spears told a big fat lie about her big fat new lips when she showed up at a BevHills bash right after the plastic surgeon plumped 'em! Going all shy when eyes focused on her fresh trout-pout, Brit babbled nonsense about how she'd had a minor car crash "and my airbag smacked me right in the face," giggled a source. Think that's hilarious? Pillow Lips brazenly told pals: "I'm lucky it didn't do more damage, y'all!" (Source)

The airbag caused her lips to swell up? Then it must have hit her stomach too . . . and her ass . . . and her double chin . . . and her cankles . . . and her thighs . . . did I mention her ass? Besides, it wasn't THAT part of the car thats caused her lips to puff up--it's from the heat of the tail pipe. Oh, and Britney, we're not lucky it didn't do more damage. Those droopy eyes, bad hair extensions, and horrible acne could have only gotten better with a major smack to your face.

In other Britney driving news, paparazzi caught her running a red light and turning into oncoming traffic last night in L.A. With her kids in the car. With her court-appointed "parenting coach" in the car. If I've said it once, I've said it a million times: Ummm, wow?
