The Law School Transplant - If you don't find me helpful, hopefully you'll find me at least mildly entertaining.

A California judge dismissed Britney Spears’ defamation lawsuit against a weekly celebrity rag because rumors that Britney and K.Fed made a sex tape are not defamatory as a matter of law.

The judge told Britney that she had “put her modern sexuality squarely, and profitably, before the public eye.”

In other words, Britney, you’re a highly paid hooker. Which therefore makes you libel-proof when people talk about how you get down and dirty under the sheets. Or in front of a video camera.

I thought most celebrities had learned a lesson after the Pam-and-Tommy fiasco, but apparently Britney has surprised us yet again with her stunning idiocy. Well played, Britney, well played.
