Holy crap, this looks like a crazy scene. Yesterday, a tipster whose job it is to alert agencies of when Britney Spears is on the move, was injured when a photographer driving a Range Rover ran over the tipster on his motorcycle. Britney Spears had just left The Four Seasons hotel and a car chase of the pop star began, with a caravan of photographers trailing Spears. The accident took place in Beverly Hills at the intersection of Santa Monica Blvd. and Rexford Dr. The injured party was taken to the Cedars-Sinai Medical center, sustaining a broken back, arms and legs and as of yesterday evening was reported to be in critical condition. With Britney herself having had run over the feet of two individuals on two separate occasions recently--a photographer and a police officer--this is the third automoible-related injury this year surrounding the troubled singer.
This is INSANE. This mob surrounding her looks crazy and now it sounds like the paparazzi are turning on themselves! They are cannibalizing each other in the name of getting the next good shot of Britney Spears walking around with her weave barely attached to her head.

This is totally nuts. I'd lose my mind too.
Chaz says:
Between the photographer and the tipster, that's 2 useless idiots now out of commission. Still waiting on Britney to make it 3.

She thrives on the paps following her every move. It validates her, sadly. If the press attention was really unbearable for her , she'd leave LA. I've run out of sympathy for her. If she still had those two boys, they'd be stuck in their car seats in terror, surrounded by all these guys.

T-Bone - I agree.
I'd be flipping my wig (ha ha, weave I mean) if I were surrounded by that chaos all the time.
I wonder how much a photo of her goes for since there seems to be a swarm of those morons trying to get the shot.

It couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of fellows. Now if we could get the whole crew pushed off a cliff or into a volcano or something...

I feel sorry that the guy has been so badly hurt, but those jackasses totally bring this on themselves. If they actually want to be part of such a horrible profession: stalking and chasing people all day... it's hard to give much of a crap about them.
