I wonder if this will slow Brit down ? NY Daily News is reporting that members of the Crips and Bloods are snatching up cameras and battling it out for shots of Britney. Several paps have complained about their new competition:
"They claim rival agencies are arming the thugs with cameras and sending them out to do battle with the dozens of paps who rubberneck around Hollywood's favorite train wreck.
Veteran snapper Nick Stern, who quit the Splash agency this month, said: "I've heard stories of fights, of car tires being slashed, cars being blocked in."All of the agency heads we interviewed said they do not hire street toughs.
"They may dress like gang members with large pants and tattoos, but to say they're gang members right now, well, real gang members are not into Britney Spears," said Frank Navarre, a Frenchman who owns the X17 agency. "I think red carpet is worse. I used to do red carpet myself, and one guy broke my camera."
"Britney Spears attracts huge numbers of photographers, and whoever muscles their way to the front gets the best picture. They're not AP photographers wearing flak jackets, but that's not to say they're thugs, either," said Chris Doherty, owner of the INF agency, which got the first photo of Spears after she was sprung from the UCLA Med Center psych unit Wednesday. "We got it because we didn't follow the gang mentality."
Well, if the case is that gang members are indeed following Britney, it's only a matter of time before she's starts a war. She'll be bedding down with a crip then a blood, tossing their bandannas around her rear view mirror.
This is just thug enough to get K-fed interested again.
