Britney Spears' Official Statement: The Tape Is Bogus

Britney Spears' rep just gave TMZ a statement, which calls the audio recording posting online "so obviously fake as to be laughable."



The statement we received goes on:  "Suffice it to say, Jason Trawick has never laid a hand on Britney."

And the rep lashes out, "This is just another example of the irresponsible nature of the tabloid media relying on shoddy sources and false information for the sole purpose of selling magazines, without regard to the truth and without regard to who they hurt in the process."  The rep says Star was informed that the story was bogus in advance, but still published it.

The rep adds that "The statements attributed to Jason Alexander are a complete fabrication as Britney has not had any form of communication with Mr. Alexander in years."

And, the rep says, "These irresponsible statements are defamatory and Britney Spears' legal team will be taking legal action against all of the appropriate parties."

Tom Brady -- Your Loss Is Ro-Gaine

Tom Brady may be getting a new linebacker -- a hairline backer.



The folks from Rogaine tell TMZ they're more than happy to offer the reportedly follically-challenged QB a 3-month supply of the product.

Rogaine's PR people offer this sage advice to Tom:  "He shouldn't just try and grow his hair to cover that bald spot...he should try and regrow the HAIR that belongs there!"

The company wants to send Tom a free, 3-month supply of Hair Regrowth Foam -- the unscented, so he doesn't get bullied by his teammates.

On the bright side, Tom, it's another way to stay topical.
