Britney Spears' Knee Malfunction

What, you thought I wasn't gonna post about Britney's accident?

I would've started a rumor that Kevin hit her with a baseball bat, but apparently that's not the case.

Spears, 22, had just completed a scene with rap star Snoop Dogg for a video of her latest single, "Outrageous," and was doing choreography under the L Train line on Roosevelt Avenue in Manhattan when her left knee gave out, Jive Records said in a statement.

I have to pack now. Brit, don't make any news for the next couple of days, k?

HaHa, look at that guy's hair, like a friggin' blonde checkerboard. Where o where is his shame? Seriously, any idea how long it took to get those lines straight? He sat in a chair all day while someone implemented that silly hair notion. I wonder how he told his parents about his new do'. Good God that's wacky!!!!

Oh, oh. Now it starts. The downward spiral. Percodan for the pain (a combination of Oxycodone and Aspirin). Addiction. Late nights turn into all nights. Wrinkles and boney knees and erratic "Courtney Love" behavior. Oh maaaaaan.

Roosevelt Avenue is in Queens...and that would be John Rocker's beloved 7 train rumbling overhead. I think this happened in Woodside.

maybe they meant "El Train" as in elevated. And then some sloppy copy editor mucked up geography...

Um, sorry, but that is so clearly not a pic of Britney in 2004. Fact-checkers! The fresh new looks of 1985 (that funky wallet chain, the male mesh top, whiteboy jeri curls, and that black woman's daringly open-chested sweatshirt, not to mention the malibu barbie crimped hair on the blonde) locate this pic squarely on the set of Breakin 2: Electric Boogaloo. Dy-no-mite!

Actually, I think it's a continuity photo taken on the set of "21 Jump Street".
