Pop queen Britney Spears fled for cover after having urine thrown at her as she filmed a TV ad.The star was bombed with buckets of urine by angry neighbours as she sang on location in the early hours of the morning, according to the News of the World.

Residents staged their protest at around 4am in downtown Los Angeles, hurling bucket-loads at the 21-year-old singer as she performed in the street below.

Fled for cover

The star fled for cover in a nearby trailer and filming was abandoned shortly afterwards, the paper reports.

One resident reportedly said: "Sure, I opened the window and yelled shut-up - but I would never have done such a vile thing."

But the resident added: "We kept hearing the same song over and over but what made it worse were two 100ft spotlights. They lit up our apartment like it was daytime.

Started screaming

"Lots of people in the block opened their windows and started screaming at her.

"Britney certainly didn't deserve the bucket treatment. She's a brilliant singer ... but perhaps not when you're trying to get to sleep".

Hmmm, given the content I'm a bit surprised that Drudge hasn't reported on this.

N. U. Endo can get me into trouble.

Is this a hobby for people in LA? Saving buckets of urine? She's lucky, someone could've showered her with bullets.

Really. That was my first thought. How do you get a bucket of urine? Make everyone in the house drink a bunch of water and go in the bucket? Weird. Not too many people I know have buckets of urine available to throw.....

Perhaps they were filming near the Howard Hughes Museum.

My old next door neighbor (who likes to drink quite a bit and puts with his klawn and yard) used to urinate in a bucket behind his garage.
This is the only person I know who keeps a bucket of urine on hand.

That was my thought too. But it is LA.
