Britney Leaves Trail Of Havoc
BRITNEY Spears and her bevy of
bodyguards managed to ward off a process server and disrupt a Patricia
Field fashion show last weekend.
The fun began when Spears' partner in
her restaurant Nyla, Bobby Ochs, resigned last week. Ochs is being sued
for $86,000 in back rent by Joseph Z. Morris, the landlord of Ochs'
failed former venture Peaches, which he ran with Marla Maples.
Morris' lawyer, Gerald Padian,
says he had served Spears with a subpoena to testify about Ochs' financial
stake in Nyla, but she was a no-show at the deposition last week.
"She didn't show up, so we're
moving to hold her in contempt of court," Padian told us. "We've
located her several times to serve her again, but she's always surrounded by a
phalanx of bodyguards. We tried to serve her at the Matthew Williamson
after-party on Friday night, but she was surrounded by 11 bodyguards. They
couldn't get near her."
But Britney's lawyer, Michael
Friedman, says Padian is "harassing" his pop tart client.
"To my knowledge she has never been served and we are objecting to any
deposition on the grounds that she has no information. They're trying to
burden and harass her because of who she is. They've been told that, but for
some reason they're proceeding because they want to grab a headline."
Padian retorts: "My client
doesn't need headlines, he needs his money. We've served more important people
than Spears. We will get her."
After frustrating Padian's process
servers at the Williamson party and at the Full Frontal Fashion bash on West
13th Street (where PAGE SIX couldn't even get close enough to make eye
contact), Britney and her posse whooped it up at Suite 16 in Chelsea.
Then, on Sunday, Spears held up
Patricia Field's fashion show for almost an hour when she tried to duck
photographers lying in wait for her.
"They were about to sit down in
the front row when Britney saw all the photographers waiting for her and then
they left and the photographers started to boo her," says a spy.
"Pat Fields' assistants went nuts trying to fill the seats and 20 minutes
later they had to clear everyone out again after Britney was coaxed back into
the show."
A Nyla spokesman confirms that Ochs
quit his role running the place last week, a job to be taken over by Dylan
hotel management. Britney's boite has also hired a new kitchen boss, former
Union Square Cafe chef Brad Gates.
Ochs previous ventures include
Peaches - which closed in 1999 after only 8 months - and Mulholland Drive,
which he ran with Patrick Swayze.

Britney's Writing
Her Life Story
Pop princess
Britney Spears is writing a tell-all book, and unlike most 20-year-olds,
she'll have no trouble filling the pages with tales from her rock 'n roll
lifestyle on the road.
Britney says writing
the book is her way of saying thank you to the fans who have supported her
through her recent troubles.
In the past year, her
relationship with long-time boyfriend Justin Timberlake has broken up, and her
parents have separated.
Britney reportedly came
close to a nervous breakdown as she struggled to cope with facing life without
Justin.
She has been seeing a
psychologist to help her with her troubles.
In a recent interview,
the star who once said she would never have sex before marriage, admitted that
she is no longer a virgin.
But Justin has
reportedly said that he never had sex with the pop princess.
Justin is now seeing
actress Alyssa Milano and staying well out of the limelight.

Britney Spears Not Really Doing
Nothing
Britney Spears
may claim to be in the midst of a six-month break, but she continues to add to
her list of activities.
Besides presenting a birthday present
to Michael Jackson at the MTV Video Music Awards on Aug. 29, her 2001 HBO
special, "Britney Spears Live from Las Vegas," snagged an Emmy for
Outstanding Technical Direction at last weekend's creative arts ceremony.
Now, the pop princess, 20, is due to
come out with a collectible book and DVD set by December. According to her
official Web site, Britney's book, tentatively titled "Stages," is
filled with new photos of her with friends and family members.
It also will offer backstage and
onstage peeks of her during her "Dream Within a Dream" tour. The
accompanying DVD is set to document her trip to Mexico City -- where she had
to cut her concert short because of bad weather and endured some bad press for
flashing a finger at photographers outside an airport.
Her six-month work hiatus was
announced immediately after that.
"I'm taking a break, so people
are writing that I'm having a meltdown. I don't get it," Spears told
PEOPLE in a cover story last month. "I need this break to rejuvenate and
to just play."
She explained to the magazine that
she planned to read film scripts -- she was pondering a starring role in a
romantic comedy that would start shooting in October -- and write more songs.
She also acknowledged that
"I don't know what I'm going to do next," but right now "I'm
kind of the happiest I've been in a long freakin' time."
