The Daily Mail has published a truly bizarre story by reporter Sharon Churcher. Seven years ago, she traveled to Kentwood, Louisiana to interview Britney Spears‘ dad, Jamie Spears, at his home.
She nearly wasn’t allowed to leave. She relates:
Every time I got up to go, he picked up a large carving knife and theatrically stabbed it into the wooden table at which we were sitting.
You can sleep here, he said. You said you wanted to know what it was like being Britney.
Jamie, who “had been drinking heavily,” kept an airgun close by him during the interview. He also had help keeping Churcher in the house.
Two growling alsatians, a rottweiler and a man Spears claimed was a bodyguard prowled the creaky back porch, which had been converted into a makeshift redneck bar complete with illuminated Budweiser sign, beer and whisky…his bodyguard cooked a huge iron pan of crayfish outside on a camping stove.
Churcher was subjected to Jamie making drunken confessions about his financial siutation and trying to hug her before she
finally managed to escape after Jamie and his bodyguard escorted me to a local bar, where he said they needed to buy more beer.
I realize that Jamie has supposedly been sober for some time now, but THIS is the guy who is in charge of Britney’s money and affairs?? That’s more than a little scary! Given this information, it’s easy to see why Brit and sister Jamie Lynn are so messed up. And I bet that this reporter has never gone on another assignment again without taking someone with her. I sure wouldn’t, after going through all that.
