Love story

Spears and Rotem had a two-week fling in December 2006 that led to a lot of explicit statements about their sex life in 2007, and Kevin deleting J.R. from his MySpace. According to J.R., he and Britney "decided for both our careers that it would not be cool to have a romantic relationship."
