When the only table at the Chateau Marmont restaurant was next to Victoria Beckham, Britney Spears said no thanks and left.� Perhaps she would have felt a bit out of place without sitting next to Mary Lou and Billy Raye at KFC.

Gatecrasher reports that Brit-Brit showed up at the Chateau last week, but — horrors! — the “only table available was the one next to Posh.” Britney couldn’t deal with sitting next to the arriviste Becks, so she high-tailed it to Il Sole instead.

Meanwhile, Posh isn’t exactly ingratiating herself with the celeb-enclave Chateau, says Gatecrasher, bringing the paparazzi to the highly-discreet hotel. “The Chateau Marmont tries to give celebs their privacy, and they hate her there. They like David, though,” says a source.
