Britney Spears at the Four Seasons Hotel (12/10)

Britney Spears was scheduled to be deposed today by Kevin Federline's lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan. It's estimated that the deposition--which Britney has evaded four times this year--might take "days" as the pop star will be questioned about everything--drug and alcohol abuse, child custody issues, etc. If Britney lies about anything, expect the legal shit to hit the fan as she'll be under oath during the questioning. But if only there was a way Britney could weasel out of this . . . perhaps an unexpected sickness of some kind? Oh hey what do you know! TMZ says:

Sources tell TMZ Britney Spears is defying the legal process and has decided not to attend her deposition. One source directly in contact with Britney tells us, "There's a million people outside of her house. She can see all the other madness (presumably she's looking at our live streaming video). The anxiety is making her sick. It's just too crazy." (Source)

That headline picture of Britney Spears was taken late Monday night. She looks healthy, happy, and just a tad insane. Now I'm no doctor but obviously Britney must have caught something bad on Tuesday, something that so ravaged her delicate body it left her physically unable to attend a court-ordered deposition for the fifth time this year. Or ya' know, she might be lying. Either way I think we can all agree that my ass looks great in jeans.
