The Popsquire Beat provides highlights from this week’s most entertaining collisions between pop culture and law. Click here for podcast!
First up, Britney Spears stood trial this week in Los Angeles for a 2007 misdemeanor invalid driver’s license charge. Twelve jurors wasted judicial resources examining evidence about whether she should have had a CA driver’s license. Britney didn’t testify, but her dad told jurors that although she spends the majority of her time in LA, Louisiana is her real home. For the most convincing portion of his testimony, he explained: “It’s Britney, bitch!”
David and Victoria Beckham were burgled! Police busted domestic workers for suspicion of theft from the Beckham’s home, located north of London. Several of the couple’s items — including Victoria’s dresses and David’s soccer memorabilia — ended up on eBay. In short, someone other than Victoria has David’s balls!
And, the Madonna/Guy Ritchie Secret is out — they are getting a divorce. Apparently, she’s Hung Up on A-Rod and already Dressing Him Up In Her Love, which may have sent Guy over the Borderline. Meanwhile, the custody battle is about to start Burnin’ Up as Guy will have to fight hard to prevent his kids David and Rocco from living an American Life. For the kids’ sake, let’s hope the fight doesn’t go Deeper and Deeper!
Have a great weekend. Please don’t drink and drive.
