Federline trying to peddle Britney's honeymoon sex tapes?

Just when one thinks Britney Spears' freshly-dumped hubby Kevin Federline can't stoop any lower, he scrambles to prove otherwise. After the 25-year-old singer dropped the D bomb on the wanna-be rapper on last Tuesday and cut him access to her fortunes, the 28-year-old is allegedly trying to peddle a sex tape the couple made during their honeymoon.

The four-hour tape belongs to Federline, who has already found a buyer ready to shell out as much as US$65 million for the tape, rumor mills are alleging. “Britney didn't think twice about making the video at the time. She mistakenly believed that their love would last. They adored filming each other. They lived their lives in front of the cameras – even making a short-lived reality TV show of their exploits. Sex was no different to them, it seems. Now this video could prove very costly to her,” a Federline insider was quoted as saying.

The interested buyer is believed to be an Arizona company involved in porn downloads. “At the moment Kev is in talks with a company in Arizona about putting the four-hour sex vid online,” the source added.

Some assert that Federline, a former backup dancer, is trying to use the threat of releasing the tapes to the public to gain custody of the couple's two sons – 14-month-old Sean Preston and newborn Jayden James. Of course, some added settlement wouldn't hurt. Under the 'iron clad' prenup, Federline will get 'US$5 million and half the sale of their US$17 million home in Santa Barbara'.

However, he will have to surrender the US$194,000 Ferrari he allegedly uses to impress the chicks behind his wife's back and any other gift worth above US$14,000 given to him by Spears. Rumors claim that Federline wants US$39 million and the custody of the children to withhold the sale of the tapes. This sounds a strange way to solve a divorce settlement as with children involved they should be put first and in fact nobody knows as yet if this is true or not, these are just rumors.

“Kevin has told Britney she should comply with his demands otherwise the whole world will see her having sex, which will be devastating,” the source said. Federline's shenanigans aren't surprising, given that he will be in dire need of money after Spears pulls the checkbook off his hands. The flashy party animal stands to lose the high-flying lifestyle he enjoyed for the last two years. And no help will come from his so-called rapping career, which seems to have finished before it began when a dismal 6,000 copies of his debut album Playing With Fire managed to find buyers.

Though earlier reports said that Federline's trip to Las Vegas proved to be the last straw that broke the couple's marriage, fresh rumors claim that Spears was stood up for a dinner date after which she went to Federline's hotel room and managed to gain entry to it only to find her husband with another woman. “She raced up to his room and found another girl there. Just the fact she was in there was enough to confirm months of suspicions, rumors and accusations about him playing away. Britney had seen all she had to and decided their marriage was over on the spot,” a source close to the singer said.

Meanwhile, one can't help but draw parallels between Spears and legendary pop star Whitney Houston, who recently dumped her troublemaker husband Bobby Brown after being married to him for 14 years. Both women were successful, chose losers as husbands and experienced massive dip in their popularity post-marriage.

They became the paparazzi targets, being slammed time and again for their antics. Later, however, they dumped their husbands, reinvented themselves and planned new albums to rediscover their magical music careers. While Bobby Brown has stayed mum on his split, Federline is trying all avenues to get back at his wife for dumping him through an SMS message.

Curiously, Federline, who has sired two children with former girlfriend Shar Jackson, doesn't seem as keen on playing daddy to those children as he is on Sean Preston and Jayden James. Of course, the first two kids don't come with a rich celebrity mommy.
