Us Weekly Enters Britney Spears’ Dog House

Britney Spears released a press statement on Wednesday regarding the new edition of Us Weekly. The singer states: “I am disturbed by the photos and article that appeared in this week’s issue of US Weekly Magazine (dated Feb 28, 2005), which they call my ‘private honeymoon album’. Kevin and I chose a resort location where we were promised absolute privacy and seclusion. Unfortunately, staff members took photographs of us, which we allowed them to take once we were assured they were being taken only for private use in a scrap book they gave us as a souvenir of our honeymoon. Other magazines, including the Star, contacted us when presented with these photographs and refused to publish them. Kevin and I thank those other magazines for respecting our rights of privacy.”
