Spears bodyguard in paparazzi scrum

Britney Spears' bodyguard pushed paparazzi out of the way when they would not let her pass yesterday.

The troubled singer was trying to get to her car after leaving a restaurant where she was having lunch, but the path was blocked by waiting photographers.

Her security guard reportedly turned red, screamed at the media and physically pushed them to make their path clear.

Earlier on in the day, the same bodyguard had to struggle to clear the way for Britney when she was visiting a boutique shop in West Hollywood.
