Britney Lost Virginity at 14, Any Shot for Normality at Birth

Posted by Bryan Christian

Today in "Breaking News We Kind of Already Knew," a former lawyer to Britney Spears has revealed to Us Weekly that the young Brit, who you may remember as a fairly innocent flower of feminity (wait, huh?), was not what she seemed.

[L]awyer Eric Ervin, who worked with Spears as a teenager, tells Us Weekly in its new cover story that the "virgin" image Spears portrayed was, in his words, a "PR blitz." In fact, Us reports in its new issue that Spears lost her virginity at 14 to boyfriend Reg Jones, and that she and Justin Timberlake were intimate from the beginning.

The other revelation in the piece is the fact that Brit's paternal grandmother killed herself at a remarkably young age in a seriously unnerving manner, though more info is promised in the print edition. (Print magazines are still a thing? How adorable.) We'd pick up a copy, but frankly we're not sure we want to know anymore about the Spears family. It's a holiday, and we're in the mood for less distressing reading. You know, like V.C. Andrews or something.

Sarah left to go to Salon.  http://sarahhepola.com/blog/  I'm wondering if it was a bad breakup with Nerve since you'd expect them to put an item here linking to her new page at Salon and wishing her well.
