Britney SpearsBritney SpearsPoor Britney Spears has got her bikini bottoms in a twist over photos from her honeymoon.

The popstar has revealed that she's "disturbed" by the publication of unauthorised snaps in a US magazine.

US Weekly went big on her Fijian honeymoon with husband Kevin Federline - with leaked pics of them appearing on the front cover and a five page spread inside.

A furious Spears said in a statement: "Kevin and I chose a resort location where we were promised absolute privacy and seclusion.

"Unfortunately, staff members took photographs of us, which we allowed them to take once we were assured they were being taken only for private use in a scrap book they gave us as a souvenir."

But clearly some of those snaps got out and Britney was not impressed:

"Other magazines, including STAR, contacted us when presented with these photographs and refused to publish them. Kevin and I thank those other magazines for respecting our rights of privacy."

But defiant bosses at US Weekly hit back, saying: "Coming from a celebrity who sold pictures of both her wedding and her stepdaughter, it's unlikely the issue here is privacy.

"Could it be that Britney is seeing red after not seeing the green from these photos? Britney Spears should start a magazine if she'd like to dictate her own coverage."
