Britney accused of threatening

to kill paparazzi

'I am going to kill you,' the star allegedly yelled at the photographers.

UPDATE: Well, well, well...it only took five months for somebody to think there was a problem with Brit? K-Fed is just lucky nothing happened to those kids while they were with her. Seriously.

This woman is completely unhinged and needs to be in a mental ward. Seriously. Has anybody looked into her mental state? Has she talked to a psychiatrist or anything in the last 4 or 5 years? On the humorous side, how funny is it that a guy named Camera is beating up photographers?

Britney Spears threw a baby bottle and threatened two photographers after they took pictures of her leaving a Las Vegas spa, the photographers said in a statement Tuesday.

Spears yelled "I am going to kill you!" and cursed at Andrew Deetz, a photographer who says he was beaten by Spears' bodyguard on Thursday, according to a statement released by Deetz's lawyers.

Deetz, 24, is preparing to sue, his lawyers said. The other photographer involved was Kyle Henderson, 23. They both work for a celebrity photography company called Flynet Pictures, which sells to such publications as People and US Weekly, according to Daniel Kogan, a spokesman for Deetz's lawyers.

The men were taking pictures of Spears, 25, as she and her children - 22 month old Sean Preston Federline and 10 month old Jayden James Federline - left the spa at the Wynn Las Vegas casino-hotel around 11:30 a.m., accompanied by two bodyguards.

One bodyguard, Cesar Julio Camera, 37, pushed Henderson against the wall until Wynn security intervened and asked Henderson to leave, the statement said.

As they were about 30 paces away and walking in the opposite direction, Camera attacked Deetz from behind, threw him on the ground and punched and kicked him until security pulled him off,(See pics to left. -mutt1970) it said.

Afterward, Spears ran toward Henderson but was stopped by security, and then threw a baby bottle at him, it said.

Then, in front of several other hotel guests and bystanders, Spears threatened to kill Deetz and said he should get a restraining order against her because she was going to kill him or hire someone that would, it said.

Camera also told Deetz on July 23 outside the Lisa Kline boutique in Beverly Hills, "I have unfinished business with you," the statement alleged.
