Lately it seems like a rare moment when we catch Britney Spears without her new favorite BFF/manager Sam Lutfi. Something about him has always felt a bit off and apparently Sam also comes with some baggage, not to mention a record. Us Weekly reports that Lutfi has had two restraining orders against him and even has multiple aliases. Sounds a little shady to us, but what do you think — is Sam Lutfi bad news for Britney?

at this point I am so over her..who isn't bad news for her
I wish they would stop showing
that chocker.
1duh
2People need to stop finidng people to balme. B!tch is bad for herself. I'm so over this heifer. NEXT!!!
3She's worse news for him.
4Seriously nyaradzmom. And polls like this only enable her "it's not my fault!" attitude.
5she should realize that she needs GOOD people in her life - may be it even conservative ones...not people like Sam.
6isn't most of what Britney chooses to do bad for her?
7WHO CARES!!!!
8I dont care, I care about the hottie sitting right next to Allie
9I agree greggie..
like doing a poll on popsugar is really going to help anything. there comes
a time in your life that you cannot blame other people for your actions..this is getting so old
it's like we are back in 2nd grade and we are telling our
moms that johnny made me do it.
10Multiple aliases? Obviously he's bad news for anybody, but the train wreck just seems to attract them all, doesn't she?
11Sam Lufti is s-k-e-t-c-h-y but these days, so is Britney so they must be a match made in heaven.
12I said maybe b/c I've never heard of this guy. If he's bad for her, then it's her own fault. She needs to step up and find stable, reliable people to have in her life.
13I'm sure she chose him as a friend because he is yet another enabler and "yes" man she has in her life. Anyone that is normal and that can help her she discards from her life. So you can't put the blame on him, it's her choosing.
I agree with Nyaradzom and Greggie.
14I don't know too much about him, so I don't wanna make an assumptions just yet. But so far I dunno...he seems like he is a little too unstable for her...
15ugh. i think ive lost hope for her.
16other: who cares!
17she chooses these people to be her friends,or did he come crawling on his hands and knees begging to be friends with her..give the guy a break pop
she is bad for herself like others have stated.
18I totally agree Greggie. I'm so sick of all these foolish is so and so bad for Brit how about just coming and saying you know what until she gets her life back on track we will not talk about her. I would have more respect for the sites and media outlets that did that, cos all these people are taking advantage of a crazy person and it's just not right. Stop giving her so much attention, it's her drug.
19No wonder she wanted him to be her manager!
20I agree nyaradzom..who is the guy next to allie? he is a cutie
21He's an enabler.
She needs to learn the difference between a "yes" person and a true friend.
22I'm surprised Kevin's lawyer hasn't yet filed to not let her have the kids when Sam is around because he has a legal history of violence, threats and restraining orders. (Which probably won't help him with that car ramming incident either.)
It's been said for months that his financial situation includes multiple bankruptcies and liens and that he's most likely just gathering info to sell her out at some point.
23I don't think she wants "true friends". A true friend would tell her all that she is doing wrong and actually stage an intervention for her dangerous behavior. She doesn't want that. So she surrounds herself with people that don't give a crap. Yet she discards her relationship with her mother. Tsk tsk.
24how about
*if she is stupid enough to surround herself with shady people she deserves anything that comes with them
25at this point, does it really matter?
26just let the girl do what she wants... just stay off the roads.. and side walks.
Seriously the real question is "Is Britney Spears Bad New for Britney Spears"...LOL. Yet again, Britney brings a strange man into the same household as her children. She is bad news for Sean Preston and Jayden James....SHE BLOWS
27Really? Who cares?
28this is Anna Nicole all over again.
29Anyone associated with Britney is sketchy. That is why she continues to do the drugs and be a loser...she has enablers.
30Other - Britney is bad news for Britney, who now has no hope of a real comeback, so it doesn't matter who her manager is, although if he can convince her to do something about those extensions, I might change my tune.
31at this point she wouldn't be hanging out with him if he wasn't bad news!
32at this point she wouldn't be hanging out with him if he wasn't bad news!
33at this point she wouldn't be hanging out with him if he wasn't bad news!
34Seriously the real question is "Is Britney Spears Bad New for Britney Spears"...
i agree
tiabia..so true.
this girl is her own worse enemy
35The multiple name thingy may not be such a biggy. His real name is supposedly Osamah, and most of the different names he's accused of using are different spellings of the shortened version, Sam. That's pretty common with middle eastern names in the US.
But the violence, restraining orders, etc. sound pretty bad. I suspect Sam has a little safety deposit box somewhere and is packing away pictures and documents for the day when Britney turns him out, so he can sell his "insider" story. And for being such a stupid desperate loony who lets anyone off the street around her kids, she deserves what she gets.
36Seriously, if she hasn't learned any lessons by now, I give up hope and any shred of sympathy.
37I agree with everyone who says it's her own fault.
That being said, I read somewhere how Sam already tried once to sell a tell-all story to some UK magazine. He is soooo shady, and does not give 2 sh*ts about Britney. She's an idiot for keeping him around.
38I cannot comment on what Britney "needs" in her life, but this guy does seem a bit shadey to me.
39That is scary. He could hurt her. And why would he need aliases?
40Maybe! But I don't know much about him, so I can't say
41Maybe! But I don't know much about him, so I can't say
42Truthfully, any con man with any sense would be latching on to the Britney Spears gravy train. She's a millionaire opening her house to all kinds of people. Sure you have to be pretty lowdown and dirty, and have little conscious, but if you want access to Hollywood, that's the way to go.
43Good point Taibia. Too bad i have no low-life opportunistic hanger-on tendencies, because she is easy pickins'.
44very true tiabia..that is really really scary when you really think about it, that is why I don't know how anyone could defend her.
45I know people compare her to Anna Nichole a lot, but going back even farther, she's not unlike Jayne Mansfield, whose downturn was plagued by years of alcoholism. She went from A list film actress and American icon to driving around to small club tours with kind of a tacky burlesque show. She'd drive all night between cities with her kids in the car, which is what she was doing when she was killed. Five kids with three husbands. That sounds like Britney's future.
46That's guys a douche. Never trust a person who has haze and darkness in their eyes which is what he has. He looks like he keeps her drugged or whatever you call it.
47WHO the heck said "no"?!
48Who is he? Is he her boyfriend? What does he do?
49He's ugly.
ElectroPopTart, I did
