Initial reaction on hearing that anyone is still willing to sleep with Britney Spears is usually shock, but then when that wore off I thought “these two make sense.” Now Cameron Diaz was too good for Criss Angel, but Britney Spears is just about his low-level speed. The two were seen holding hands and going up to a suite together at a Beverly Hills hotel last night. Since all it takes for Britney to take her panties off is a small amount of attention, you know that this guy didn’t have to perform even an entry-level card trick to get lucky:

Another night, another hookup for Britney Spears! Her latest conquest? Notorious womanizer Criss Angel, 39.

Cameron Diaz’s former fling was seen escorting the pop star inside the Tower Beverly Hills Hotel on Wednesday night, where the two held hands and headed up to a suite on the 11th floor.

Earlier this month, the 25-year-old singer had a topless hot tub romp with 21-year-old college student Matt Encinias at the Standard Downtown hotel.

I would love to know what Britney is thinking lately. She’s involved in a very public custody battle with her ex husband and instead of let’s say – taking her kids to the zoo or to a park, maybe hiring some clowns to come over – she’s sleeping with a scumbag magician and not even attempting to hide it. It’s like she wants everyone to know that there are still people willing to have her.

Maybe she didn’t have custody of the kids that night, and maybe she’s just like “f*$# it,” because there’s not much more she can do at this point apart from physically harming her kids or putting them on the railroad tracks to make people think she’s a bad mom. Yesterday I was defending her because sure she’s a sh*t mom, but her kids are not endangered and that doesn’t mean that anyone should step in and nab them from her. A custody battle is a different issue, and now I think she must want K-Fed to take her boys. She could have easily gotten laid discretely by driving farther out of town for a hook up. She is just a sad woman and it’s going to get even worse for her when K-Fed gets primary custody.

Joanne Sarantakos, the estranged wife of “illusionist” Criss Angel has claimed that he forced her to keep their marriage secret so as not to discourage female fans and that he emotionally abandoned her. She’s also claimed that he hasn’t paid her promised expenses. Oh, and that Cameron Diaz broke up their marriage.

Angel went on the attack over the weekend, refuting all of Sarantakos’ claims. He says he met Cameron in May, which by all public reports seems to be about accurate. Celebitchy reported that after escaping from a block of concrete in Times Square on June 5th, Angel said “I’d like to dedicate this escape to my girl ‘Trouble,’ a.k.a. Cameron. I love you baby. Have a safe trip to Europe for your Shrek tour.” Classy. I’m sure the promoters of “Shrek” really want to be associated with Criss Angel, and are so grateful for the free publicity. By many (though not all) accounts that was likely the end of their relationship. However it’s been widely reported that Angel and Sarantakos separated some time last year. That would make it pretty hard for Cameron Diaz to have split up their marriage. Sarantakos’s lawyer has threatened to subpoena Diaz and drag her into court over her relationship with Angel.

Angel’s response to his estranged wife’s allegations accuse her of doing whatever it takes to get more money.

Cameron is a good friend and an amazing person and to defame her and myself and paint her as the reason for my marriage’s demise is factually inaccurate, ridiculous and just plain wrong… It seems clear, and very unfortunate to me that Joanne and her attorney both hope that these false statements will provide my estranged wife, who has also been dating during this time, the financial windfall she is obviously seeking.”

Furthermore, he denies that he hasn’t supported her as promised.

She has had unlimited access to credit cards that I pay for. I have paid for her cell phone, her car, her gas, her car insurance, her health insurance, trips she has taken–even the smallest thing like her cat food,” he said. “Essentially, I have paid for her every expense. I have also paid for her housing the entire time.”

[From E News]

You really can’t argue with the cat food. What woman in her right mind would be all that upset if her husband slept with Cameron Diaz, as long as he paid for the cat food? Seriously, I don’t like Cameron Diaz even a tiny bit (she’s been reported as the rudest celebrity to fans for years now) but it doesn’t sound like she has much to do with this debacle. She got dragged into it, first by Angel to get him some publicity, and then by his estranged wife, to get her some money. All I can say is run, Cameron, grab that talking donkey and run to Duloc and get the hell away from all those crazy people.
