Us Weekly Spits, Stomps On Our Last Fond Memory of Britney Spears

There are certain beliefs that are so widely engrained in our common psyche, the comfort of their certainty helps us sleep at night: The earth is round; the sky is blue; Paris Hilton craves attention; E=mc2; Britney Spears spent her teen years as a proud virgin. Get ready to have your world rocked: Us Weekly is claiming Spears lost her virginity at 14.

Lawyer Eric Ervin, who worked with the embattled baby neglector when she was still an innocent-looking, tween moppet, tells the magazine the "virgin" image was merely a "PR blitz."

Spears, who proudly and repeatedly told the press that she was saving herself for marriage, actually lost her virginity to then-boyfriend Reg Jones, claims Ervin. As for her much-publicized chaste relationship with Justin Timberlake, Ervin says the pair was going at it from the very beginning.

Our world is officially askew.
