Is it weird that I am sort of starting to feel bad for Kevin? He gets such a bad rap and I think he is about to start trying and maybe even slightly impress us. He is even trying to campaign that we vote for him to win the male Red Carpet Icon at next month's Teen Choice awards where he is set to make a huge stage debut. That said, apparently Britney had to fire the pool boy for spending too much time with Kevin. The Scoop reports:

Britney Spears isn’t a “nice person.” That’s the news flash from a pool worker who was fired by the “Oops! ... I Did It Again” singer, who says that Spears axed him for talking too much to her hubby, Kevin Federline.

“I was hanging out a little bit,” ex-employee Jon LaLane told In Touch Weekly. “She came out screaming at Kevin for lying around, then looked at me like I was to blame.” The next day, LaLane, says he got a call from Spears’ people, telling him not to report for work. LaLane, son of the famed exercise guru Jack LaLane, also has a band, and he says he and K-Fed would talk music. But, he claims, Spears would get jealous when her hubby talked to anyone else.

“She wants Kevin on a leash,” LaLane told the mag. “She fires everybody. I figured, ‘Why not me?’ I just didn’t expect her to be so mean.” He adds: “It’s a revolving door there. She’s not the nice person everyone thinks she is.”

Maybe I shouldn't feel bad for him. Thanks to him there are now reports that Britney is not a nice person. We don't want to hear that. I blame Kevin.
