Britney's one-fingered salute to hubby (Go To Top)

       Washington: Pregnant Britney Spears' 20-month marriage with Kevin Federline seems to be taking an uglier turn by the day, as the singer-turned actress has posted an extraordinarily rude message to her hubby on her website giving him a one-fingered salute. After days of speculation that their stormy marriage has hit the rocks with no refutation from either side, she seems keen to publicly display her anger and bitterness. Brit has slapped the uncanny photo of herself on her website under her poem Remembrance of Who I Am, which is a subtle hint that her marriage to K Fed is almost over. It reads: "No more chains that you gave me. My crown is back and its way too high for you to be in my presence." Though Spears has been lashing out against her hubby, he seems to be anything but upset about the recent developments. He strongly believes that Spears will never have the courage to leave him. "Don't worry; she ain't got the balls to leave me. She just doesn't have the guts to leave me; she's been threatening to divorce me since the honeymoon," the Mirror quoted him, as telling his close friends.
