Britney Spears has filed for divorce from Kevin Federline.
Spears filed legal papers today in Los Angeles County Superior Court, citing "irreconcilable differences." In her petition, Spears asks for both legal and physical custody of the couple's two children, one-year old Sean Preston and two-month old Jayden James, with Federline getting reasonable visitation rights.
As for money, sources tell TMZ the couple, who married in Sept. 2004, has an iron-clad prenup. Not surprisingly, Spears is waiving her right to spousal support. She's also asking the judge to make each party pay their own attorney's fees.
Spears gives the date of separation as yesterday, the same day she flaunted her incredible revamped physique during a surprise appearance on David Letterman's show. Sources tell TMZ there was no single reason for Britney pulling the plug, rather, it was "a string of events."
Spears has hired powerhouse celebrity divorce lawyer Laura Wasser, who has repped a number of celebs, including Angelina Jolie, Nick Lachey and Kiefer Sutherland. We're told Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe asked Wasser to rep both of them in their split, but Wasser declined for personal reasons.

I'm not a fan of Federline's life style but I gotta give it to the guy. He's making the most of his 15 minutes of fame more than most. Not only will he get something out of the divorce, he has a decent deal with the WWE, his own album..... remember this guy was basically home less before all of this (not literally but he was pretty broke).
So for a guy in his position, he's doing ok. I forgot to add in he'll be on the Surreal life in about 3 months so you can include that to his income as well. :tongue2

Funny i read that as soon as it came out. Was wondering how long it would take for it to be up here lol :p
Regarding the divorce though, you had to see it coming. He's a piece of crap that basically used her for all she was worth. Good riddance.
