A bunch of Spears fans are pitching a Brit fit in Hollywood right now -- claiming they were screwed out of attending the popwreck's documentary screening because they weren't hot, blond and slutty enough to make the cut.
The group was waiting in line for a bus to take them to the screening, but when it showed up, they say the most attractive and provocatively dressed fans were cherry-picked from the crowd -- instead of a first-come, first-serve scenario.
The frenetic fans say they were even told the bus was coming back for more ... which it never did.
But when it comes down to it ... they were properly warned.

The people at Britney's record label are treating her new album like the frickin' Shroud of Turin -- putting legitimate music critics through a virtual gauntlet just to get a peek.
Even though the album already has been leaked online, we're told the rules of the review sessions for "Circus" have been insanely strict: No recorders, no computers, and only one person at a time hearing the album. We're also told reviewers haven't even been allowed to fast forward or rewind "Circus" themselves.
And if the lockdown preview sessions weren't bad enough, more than one person has told us the album was played for the critics at "crazy" loud volume levels -- but we're not really sure who that benefits.

A bald, menacing figure used an umbrella on the paps last night -- but it wasn't Britney this time, it was the dude "protecting" her.
More importantly though, who's her new hottie chauffeur?

Jamie Spears was drinking at a bar this weekend. But contrary to several reports, we're told it was NOT alcohol.
Spears was at Big Dean's "Muscle In" Cafe in Santa Monica Friday night. He was bellied up at the bar, drinking two or three glasses of something. We're told it was O'Doul's, not beer.
If Jamie had been drinking beer it would be a big deal -- he's a recovering alcoholic and guzzling suds could jeopardize his conservatorship over Britney.
We're told he drank his O'Doul's and walked out with a cheeseburger and chili fries.
There were reports the liquid came from a tap. We checked and turns out O'Doul's does come in keg form. We did not know that.

Britney Spears fans may want to hit up the gym (and the beauty salon) if they want to go to a special MTV screening featuring the popwreck.
The sign-up sheet for tickets requires users to have to answer ridiculous questions about their height, weight, body type and even eye color. Fans are then told to wear funky and trendy attire for the event.
In other words -- don't show up looking like Britney when she was a certified mess.

Kevin Federline won't be taking any legal action after Jayden James' lil' health scare over the weekend.
His lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan tells E!, "I don't anticipate there being a hearing." Kaplan adds the thing was probably a "freak occurrence" and the parents will "do what they have to do to make sure" there's no more trouble for the boy.
As we told you, Jayden ingested something yucky and had a reaction –- he's fine now, thankfully.

So your kid gets released from the hospital after ingesting something that didn't agree with him...so where do you take him next? Why, an alligator farm, silly!
A day after picking up Jayden James from a Mississippi medical center, Britney took her littlest boober and littlest unwed teen mother of a sister, Jamie Lynn, to see some large reptiles in Louisiana on Tuesday.
"Look JJ, the gators are caged up like mama once was."

One day after Britney brought Jayden James into Southwest Mississippi Regional Medical Center on a food-related issue, mama Spears was able to whisk her 2-year-old back home.
Judging by the photo, taken just moments ago, looks like Brit and baby got a security escort to the car ... by someone who wasn't K-Fed.

Now we've gotten to the bottom of why Jayden James was rushed to the hospital yesterday.
Sources tell TMZ he ingested something that didn't agree with him. We are told, contrary to several reports, it was NOT a seizure.
We're told he'll probably be discharged tomorrow. As for Ms. Britney Spears, she was "worried" but is now fine.
P.S. Britney and others have been trying to get in touch with K-Fed to let him know what's going on, but haven't had any luck.
UPDATE: K-Fed's publicist tells us the story is not true....that Kevin has been "in direct contact with the family at all times."
Two Things: 1. That's definitely not what we're being told.
2. He has a publicist?

Ding dang! Britney Spears was able to return home to Kentwood, LA Friday -- with both her boys in tow. This was the first time Brit was able to bring Sean Preston and Jayden home since losing custody rights to KFed earlier this year.
Now her boo boos can see where mommy gots her crazies from.

Britney and Madonna reunited on stage last night -- but all Brit got was a peck on the hand.
The two last performed together at the infamous 2003 VMAs, where they french kissed for an audience including Brit's ex, Justin Timberlake -- who was also there last night, but performed much later.

Turns out Britney and Tom Brady have more in common than having kids who will never have to work a day in their lives.
Our spies at the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic in L.A. tell us Britney got herself a check-up this morning and, as we were told, "All systems are go."
Britney, like T.B., had knee problems back in 2004, when she underwent arthroscopic surgery.
Now here's the thing -- there are reports Britney will hit the stage tonight with Justin Timberlake at Madonna's Los Angeles concert. But we're being told she may not perform at all -- and will only show up for moral support.

Britney Spears' timing is good these days. The stage she'll take tonight with Madonna semi-collapsed yesterday.
Britney and Justin Timberlake will perform with Madge at Dodger Stadium this evening, at least that's what Ryan Seacrest said on KIIS FM.
Yesterday around 4:00 PM, the roof structure started leaning wildly to the right. A TMZ spy in the stadium snapped this picture and then, priorities straight, ran for safety.
Dodger Stadium sources tell us the stage will be repaired for tonight's show.
