Britney Fires Her New Assistant!

Filed under: Britney Spears

Well, this didn't last very long.

Britney Spears is looking for a new bitch!

The former pop star fired her current assistant, Shannon Funk, on Wednesday amidst rumors that Shannon was more trouble than she was worth.

Shannon lasted only about three weeks.

"Britney felt a lot of her recent troubles started and stopped with Shannon," an insider close to Spears tells Life & Style weekly. “Britney thought [Shannon] was talking badly about her. She was very rude and Britney felt she was letting business emails fall by the wayside.”

The mother of two parted ways with her former assistant, cousin Alli Sims, within the last month.

Now Britney is alone and out of control!

      this may have been one good thing britney has actually done.. funk did look like she was bringing britney more trouble. britney needs more of a mentor for an assistant, not someone who is just as screwed up as she is.

    37. Nikkie says – reply to this

      i'll work for her - just so i can TURN HER ASS AROUND! Brit - whoever you do hire make sure they're OLDER then you and someone responsible, not just another party buddy!

      Just curious, was it her assistants fault that she was so high, crazy, and out of it, that OK magazine is doing the unthinkable and not lying to cover up just how messed up a celeb is? These magazines have been lying for YEARS to cover up stars bad behavior, for one of them to actually be HONEST about Brittney means that she is over the top crazy…thats not her assistants fault, it's hers.

      51

      She ALWAYS blames her troubles on other people.

      The first part of being an adult is taking responsibility for your actions. She is such an immature brat. Grow up Brit, and find yourself some class.

    52. aj says – reply to this


      52

      Wow - Britney seriously needs to learn the word ACCOUNTABLE…as in we are all accountable for our own actions.

    53. Kibbell says – reply to this


      53

      She needs an executive assistant and not some hussy from the street. She prolly doesn't know the difference between a nanny and an assistant, cos her past two assistants were carrying her kids around a lot. Britney should know better. She should try and trust people again and hire herself a new entourage.

      What skills do these celebrity assistants have anyway? Its not like they need any skills other than to hold shopping bags and check their email on a blackberry. What a waste of space.

      So Britney is this pathetic. She has to blame her immature behavior on an assistant. Real mature.

    67. Lourdes says – reply to this


      67

      I'm a Psychology graduate…I can be Britney's assistant. I have patience, discretion and determination to help Britney overcome these tough times and assist her in her comeback to becoming the star she once was!!!

    68. kbcan says – reply to this


      68

      I didn't particularly like this assistant, but it also seems the timing is such that she is taking the fall for Britney's recent behavior. And it could hardly be easy working for Brit.

      Britney also needs to do a bit of homework when hiring an assistant. First of all check references. Secondly, hire someone that will be your assistant, and not your paid friend. Third, hire a team of people qualified to do the work that has to be done for you (a personal assistant, a publicist, a manager, a stylist, etc). I wonder if Shannon got stuck with everybody's work.

      I am applying for the position of Ms. Spears. I am willing to take the blame for everything. Take a punch,kick,stab, also any & all verbal abuse coming from or regarding Ms. Spears. I hv no experience, although seems like you do not even really need any. Oh yea & I know where to hide Kfed's body if needed!

    76. Nova11 says – reply to this


      76

      If she wouldnt hire these stupid girls to be "assistants" and actually get someone qualified as an assistant….she would be better off. She gets into "friendships" with them which always ends up bad. Get someone responsible Brit….seriously!! Get yourself a publicist and a manager too while you're at it. Try hiring someone without "Used to work at Taco Bell" on their resume and you are good as gold!!

      I am applying for the newly opened position. I am willing to take verbal abuse coming from or toward Ms. Spears. I can take a punch, stab, good cursing out just like the next guy. I have no experience w/assisting, but it looks as if you do not need any. Ms. Spears call me, so we can get this baby party started. Oh yea & I know where to hide Kfed's body if needed!

      Britney is nothing but a cracked out whore right now. I can't wait until reality slaps her right in the face and she ends up in jail . . . or even worse loosing both of her kids to kevin. She's making him look like an angle.
