FRED DURST Follows BRITNEY To SUNDANCE Film Festival

The following item was published in today's edition of the New York Post:

"Britney Spears definitely has her hands full. The pop tart, in Sundance to try and drum up a movie career, is juggling both [LIMP BIZKIT frontman] Fred Durst and ['N SYNC singer] Justin Timberlake while partying around town. During Saturday night's Express/Project Greenlight party, Spears arrived with several girlfriends, p.r. people and a bodyguard in tow. Several minutes later Durst, dubbed 'the backdoor boy' by Sundancers, snuck into the party by the back door and joined his new flame in the VIP section. After Britney and Durst made separate exits, they met up at the Chrysler Lounge on Main Street — Durst again arriving by the back door — and ended up together at a private lodge party in Deer Valley in the early morning. 'Justin arrived yesterday and we aren't sure if Britney has seen him yet, but she's definitely been hanging with Fred,' said our spy. Spears and Timberlake recently reconnected at the American Music Awards, making out at an after-party, despite Durst's admitting to a relationship with the pop tart on his Web site."

"The new bad boy love of squeaky clean Britney Spears has a shameful past — as the star of a hardcore porn video.

"LIMP BIZKIT frontman Fred Durst appeared in the sleazy film 'Backstage Sluts 2', I can reveal.

"The heavily tattooed singer — wearing an Afro wig and false moustache — can be seen pawing the naked body of a young Britney lookalike before having full sexual intercourse for the cameras.

"The shock news will horrify Britney's millions of young fans for whom she's the perfect role model.

"And it will come as a crushing blow to her staunchly religious family, who have prided themselves on her claims she'll remain a virgin until she marries.

"A source close to the Spears family said: 'Her parents are already convinced she and Fred are having sex and they are horrified. He is not the sort of man they hoped their beautiful daughter would hook up with. There's a lot of tension.'

"Britney's family were banking on a reunion with the pop princess's childhood sweetheart, US chart star Justin Timberlake.

"Even after the couple split last year, many thought the romance would be rekindled. But Britney, 21, who is desperate to shed her wholesome image, was seen on the arm of 32-year-old Durst in a Los Angeles club three weeks ago.

"And he has since been staying with her at her Hollywood mansion.

"It is not known whether Durst has shown Britney his vile video, which was shot three years ago.

"But he says on his website: 'I really like her. She's a sweet, amazing girl.' "
