She's not that innocent (Britney Spears Snorts Coke On Public Toilet Seat)

There can be little doubt Britney Spears has left the Magic Kingdom behind her, reports The Philadelphia Inquirer.

In an interview with Star magazine, Spears admits to drug use, four months after the same tabloid reported her snorting cocaine at South Beach's crobar nightclub.

According to the story, Britney sniffed a line off the toilet seat in the VIP bathroom, then asked a friend to ''check me, check me,'' to make sure there was no trace of white on her nostrils.

''Let's say that you reach a stage in your life where you are curious. I was curious at one point,'' the 21-year-old pop princess told the Star. ``Was it a mistake? Yes.''

As for the reports of her being a party girl, ''I'll go out and have a good time. Why shouldn't I?'' she said. ``And just like anybody my age, maybe I have woken up the next morning and said: `Whoo . . . that was a crazy night.'

``A few weeks ago I was at [New York nightclub] Lot 61 and me and my girlfriend Jeannie did stand up in the booth and dance. Hey, Julia Roberts took off her bra at Hogs And Heifers -- so what we did wasn't real bad!''

According to the story, Britney sniffed a line off the toilet seat in the VIP bathroom...

This is what I find most shocking about this story. Not that Britney Spears snorted La Cocaina but that she snorted it off a public toilet seat. When I have to sit on a public toilet seat (one of my least favorite chores) I always make sure that it is thoroughly covered with a paper seat cover or with toilet paper. The LAST THING I would want to do is ingest something off a toilet seat. What's next Britney? Will you be doing wine tasting off toilet seats or sampling chicken salad spread on toilet seats?

YUUUUCCCKKKK!

[xrp]

Woohoo! Parents, don't let your children see Britney the SLUT as a role model, please!

[Mr. Mulliner]

The fact that she did it off the toilet seat seems to indicate it was more than just done out of curiosity. Addicts don't care where and how they get it, they just make sure they get it. Doing it off a toilet seat makes me think she's more than just a casual user.

[Sir Gawain]

You might be surprised to find that bathrooms are the most sanitary room in the house. The environment is unfriendly to germs. Public bathrooms are generally safe as well.

Britney sniffed a line off the toilet seat in the VIP bathroom, then asked a friend to ''check me, check me,'' to make sure there was no trace of white on her nostrils.

Considering where her nose was, her friend should check that there was no trace of brown on her nostrils either.

[PJ-Comix]

Public bathrooms are generally safe as well.

Um....sure. So why not have a banquet meal served on the toilet seats of your local public restroom.... Sorry, but I don't buy that PUBLIC toilet seats are safe and clean. I'm so paraoid about public restrooms that I NEVER even carry popcorn into movie theater restrooms. The idea of even the air of a public restroom coming into contact with the food I'm about to eat sickens me.

[Sir Gawain]

Well it sounds more like you have a phobia to me. Do you carry hand sanitizer around in your pocket as well? A lot of people touch the same doorknobs you do, after all. And not all of them wash their hands...

[CanadianFella]

big deal, rich white kids getting high is not the end of western civilization.

[Mind-numbed Robot]

Since it said the V.I.P restroom my guess it was the ladies room with stalls and with the lid down on the pot. The lines were made on the lid and sniffed from there. Not as bad as it seems.

I am not a coke user and never have been but I can occasionally put two and two together.

[gitmo]

Said the young Britney Spears, "You'll never believe what I saw the other day. This guy had some white coke!"

[longtermmemmory]

These are the same people who are upset when we do not take them seriously.

liars and frauds declaring their virtues.

[PJ-Comix]

Not as bad as it seems.

The nekkid rear ends of strangers have been sitting on those toilet seats and you say it isn't as bad as it seems? Sorry, but it IS as bad as it seems.

[chicagolady]

You know too much about addict behavior MR. Bill?

[PJ-Comix]

Well it sounds more like you have a phobia to me.

Not wanting to come into contact with a PUBLIC toilet seat might sound like a phobia to you but to me it is just common sense. Are you saying that you actually sit on a public toilet seat without using those paper seat covers or covering the toilet seat with toilet paper?

[chicagolady]

Come on now.

Maybe she was praying to the porciline GODS?

[Sir Gawain]

Are you saying you actually touch public doorknobs without wiping them first? Then I bet you touch your mouth without even thinking about it.

[DB]

I don't know about women’s bathrooms but the men’s bathroom is nearly always a hellhole... Lets just say they tend to miss and dribble a lot, whether using the urinal or toilet...

I make sure my shoelaces aren’t dragging before entering…

If they have paper towels (most do) I use that to open the door with after I’ve washed my hands.

Are you female (I'm guessing you are)?

[Mr. Mulliner]

I've been on the streets of Kuala Lumpur cleaning wounds of heroin and ice addicts. For people who have never seen it, they would be simply shocked by what people do right on the streets just to get their next fix.

I'm not saying that Britney is anywhere near that. I'm sure she's not. But I can't imagine someone trying it for their first time from even a clean public toilet seat.

[Sir Gawain]

You think I'm a female with my screen name? Alrighty then. Well I don't do a #2 in the public bathroom unless it's unavoidable, and yes I clean it as well as possible before I sit down. All I'm saying is that the same amount if not more germs are found many other places that people rarely think twice about touching.

[Uncle Meat]

Well,well,Bratney is among the ranks of the wretched.Surprise,surprise.Yesterday's pop idol turned coke whore.
