A dredlock wig-wearing Britney Spears broke down in front of the paparazzi after a heated argument with cousin/assitant Ali, who has been absent over the past week, since the introduction of bodyguard/mystery manny. Brit and Ali will reportedly been going their separate ways after Tuesday night’s tussy.

According to the paps: Apparently she was sobbing during dinner – with her new bodyguard slash manny by her side – but still managed to puff through a few ciggies. She retreated upstairs to a room and was out of sight for the evening.
