Britney Spears Baby Shower

Although our invitation to Britney Spear’s baby shower was apparently lost in the mail, it did not stop the staff of The Hollywood Bureau from sending a gift and getting the inside scoop on the Moroccan-themed baby shower held at Britney’s Malibu resident.

The invitation designed by Lehr & Black requested that guests “come barefoot & beautiful.” Event Planner’s Diane Levin and Alyson Fox – the mother/daughter duo also responsible for throwing Spears’ 2004 nuptials, erected a giant pink and orange Moroccan tent where guests fed on North African dishes such as Moroccan brisket and salad Tangiers. The air was filled with Nag Champa incenses and thousands of scattered rose petals covered the grounds were Henna tattoo artists and a Tarot card reader entertained.

Of course the most exciting moment of all took place outside the gates of Britney’s Malibu estate when paparazzo, Brad Diaz, was shot in the leg with a pellet gun. Baby showers and BB guns usually don't go together, however this seemed to be the bizarre exception to the rule. Diaz was taken to a hospital and the LA Times noted that he was released from the hospital with a Band-Aid on his thigh only hours after the incident. One published report says that Diaz plans to sue "for millions." "I can't believe it, I was on a public street," Diaz reportedly said. That may be tough, as he'll need to know who shot him to file a lawsuit. Right now, authorities are unclear on exactly where the plastic pellet came from or who pulled the trigger.

The Hollywood Bureau just received a thoughtful “Thank you” note from Britney and Kevin thanking us for sending a shower gift. And I guess you want to know what we sent, huh? Well, we sent a rare first edition copy of the children’s classic, “Where the Wild Things Are” story and pictures by Maurice Sendak.
