Brit and KFed's surprise meeting

Her return appearance at the MTV VMAs left Britney Spears's comeback up in the air. But the popstar seems intent on putting to rest her custody issues with her ex, Kevin Federline. Spears attended an unscheduled meeting with Federline and his attorney yesterday. The exes arrived separately to the Century City offices of Spears's attorney. The meeting fell on son Jayden's first birthday and five days before they are due to face each other before a family court judge on Monday. The meeting was Spears's idea, according to a source close to her. "Britney asked for [the meeting]. She wants to put an end to this public debacle," says the Spears source. "However, Kevin [has] refused. He needs more money so he's determined to win this." Court documents released August 30 show that Spears's income is $737, 868 a month and that Federline receives $20,000 a month in spousal support but has no "net income after business expenses." A source close to Federline confirmed the meeting, but said that Federline was not drawing the process out due to financial self-interest. "He's not going for additional child support in the court papers that were filed. It's not about the money." When asked if Spears was hoping to settle, the Federline source said, "She might settle, she's got stage fright."
