Britney Spears dates paparazzo

Here's one of the most worrying signs yet of Britney Spears' erratic behaviour - and it has nothing to do with the neon pink wig.

The man with the unstable US star is her new boyfriend, paparazzo Adnan Ghalib, 35, one of a swarm that has stalked her from behind lenses for years.

Stripped of custody of her children and sick of being pursued by photographers, Spears apparently has convinced herself sleeping with the enemy can't make matters worse.

California-based and Afghani-raised Ghalib reportedly managed a strip club before taking up the camera.

Rumours are he has already done the dirty on Spears, 26, by trying to hawk photos of her wearing only knickers.

Ghalib denies trying to profit from his dalliance.

The singer is due in court on Tuesday over custody issues with husband Kevin Federline.
