"Stomp the Yard" Star Dodged Britney Bullet

Posted Jan 10th 2007 12:20PM by TMZ Staff

Columbus Short was thisclose to being Kevin Federline.

The choreographer-turned-actor was romantically linked to Britney in 2003, while his wife was seven months pregnant -- see a trend here, Shar Jackson, anyone?



While promoting his new film "Stomp the Yard," "Tom Joyner Morning Show" entertainment reporterJawn Murray asked Short how it felt to have a life that didn't go "the way of the Federline." Audibly surprised by the question, Short replied, "I believe in my talent ... not to diss Kevin, he's a boy of mine ... I'm grateful in the career decisions that I've made and God directing my path." No kidding.

If only K-Fed had learned a thing or two from this one ... we could have all been spared PopoZao.

3. Yeah, he was messing with Britney while he was married and his wife was pregnant. Our family discussed the issue at length... I know of friend of his, we disucessed it while it was going on... Britney doesn't care about breaking up homes, that's why she married a guy who would mess around with exotic dancer in Vegas, what goes around comes around.

8. Yea you can tell she is into guys that are taken cuz she likes the challenge, grow up Britney. I am sure there are people out there that DOESN'T find you attractive. The older you get, the less attractive you are getting. Don't you notice that?? A freakishly wide neck is showing more and more.

9. Loved the boatboy pix; however, Britney absolutely lacks common sense. It is truly amazing how naive she is. From her baby oops photos to flashing her whatchmacallit. In the guy dept, Britney got exactly what she deserved. She is totally dumb and lacks class entirely. She sets up her own scandals then ends up in emotional breakdowns (poor, poor pitiful me dramas).

11. Britney is not going to get her career back. Just look at her, she's alot heavier than before, she's had knee problems, she smokes like a fish and music has changed. Look at Janet Jackson, she thought that if she showed her tit that everyone would buy her CD. Well they didn't and her career is dropping faster than Britney panties. People move on and just wait and see.

13. Whatever. I like Britney. And its good that Columbus is doing his own thing and didn't take advantage of Britney during a bad time in her life.

14. Britney should have think about what she was going, because its too late now the damage has been don her career as a artist gone maybe forever. Lots of people warned her what can happen if she were to marry that dood, But she did't list and now look at her now she is not the same britney spears we all know and love. I don't know who that lady is but she is not britney spears. This lady wanted to be a mother but I bet not with her kids most of the time. How ever she likes to smoke and drink alot that we know.

Britney spears if you are reading this please clean up your self before its too late. think about what might happen to you and your kids in the long run. You and your sons.You might be living on the sheets when you run out of money and remember its not about if you run out of money its all about when you run out of money think you.
