Britney Gunning for Paparazzi

Drama magnet Britney was feeling trigger-happy with photographers. By now, you've probably seen the video and pictures of the embattled and expectant Mrs. Federline's misstep while walking from the Ritz-Carlton to a waiting SUV with eight-month-old Sean Preston in one arm and a glass in the other.

As photographers snapped away, it appears the mommy-unfriendly combination of Spears' too-long jeans and wedge-heeled sandals caused her to lose her footing, sending Sean P.'s noggin -- previously dinged in a high-chair dive and probably sore from his recent car seat slump -- flying backwards.

Luckily, Brit's bushy-mustached bodyguard helped steady her and she continued on her way, but not before uttering, "This is why I need a gun."

(Of course, even if Spears had a weapon, she wouldn't have had a free hand in which to carry it, yet another reason why a Baby Bjorn or a stroller with cup holders would be a practical solution.)

Not long after the baby bobble, Spears reportedly treated Sean to a trip to FAO Schwartz, followed by a stop at a nearby eatery, where the paparazzi were once again documenting her every move.

The good folks at TMZ have the video of the café pop-by, which begins innocuously enough with Britney smiling at the waitress and happily bouncing her son on her lap.

Soon, however, she turns on the waterworks, and the video turns uncomfortable as it becomes clear that there are few things sadder in this world than a bygone pop starlet attempting to hide her tears behind her baby's head while wearing a backless ensemble that exposes a black lace bra and pink thong.

According to "Entertainment Tonight," the scrutinized Spears was so upset over being tailed by shutterbugs that she packed up and left New York. No word on whether she headed back home to her work-averse (except for his industrious sperm) husband in Malibu.
