Britney Spear’s Ex-Husband Says Annulment Was “Bullsh*t”
In 2004 Britney Spears married longtime friend Jason Alexander in an overnight wedding in Las Vegas and now nearly 8 years later Alexander is speaking out about that short-lived arrangement, calling it “bullshit.”
Speaking to ABC’s 20/20 this week Jason says of his time with Britney:
“I was in love with her. … I feel like she felt the same way.”
He goes on to add that when Spear’s told her management team about the quickie wedding they weren’t happy in the least.
“They didn’t want to hear anything … and [Spears] came back, and it ended,” Alexander said. “That was pretty wild.”
In annulment papers filed shortly after the wedding it stated that Britney Spears:
“Lacked understanding of her actions, to the extent that she was incapable of agreeing to the marriage.”
Likely translation: “Britney was too drunk to get married.”
Shortly after filing papers her marriage was annulled and became just another footnote in her very public breakdown which lasted until her transformation back into a pop star in 2011 thanks largely to her soon-to-be husband Jason Trawick and her father Jamie Spears.
Speaking of the situation Alexander now says:
“Bullsh-t. That was probably the hardest part about it. I had obviously got my feelings involved.”
Do you think Jason who is now trying to make a career for himself in mixed martial arts is just trying to drum up some free press for himself or did Britney Spears really throw him under the bus during a very confusing period in her life?
