Spears’ Rep Dismisses Sexual Harassment Lawsuit!
Britney Spears‘ publicist has responded to a sexual harassment case filed by the star’s former bodyguard – suggesting the suit is a way for the former aide to “make a name for himself”.
In a shocking new lawsuit filed in Los Angeles yesterday, Fernando Flores accused the Toxic chart-topper of exposing herself and making sexual advances towards him while he worked for her. Flores had previously claimed that Spears was a terrible parent to her two sons, alleging he once witnessed the star “savagely hit” her son Sean Preston with a belt.
An investigation was launched after the bodyguard reported her to the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services earlier this year, but officials rejected the claims in July
.
Now a rep for the superstar has taken to Spears‘ website to dismiss the latest lawsuit as nothing more than a cry for publicity by a disgruntled former employee.
On the site, a statement reads:
“This lawsuit is another unfortunate situation where someone is trying to take advantage of the Spears family and make a name for himself.
“The Department of Children and Family Services conducted a proper investigation surrounding Mr. Flores’ accusations and have closed the case without any further action. Ms. Spears and her attorneys have every expectation that this matter will be dismissed by the courts.”
It’s obvious that Flores isn’t doing himself any favours – if his allegations are indeed false.
