Britney Spears has had a major impact on the world in many ways. First she revolutionized the pop industry with her young blonde sexiness, then she converted Saddam Hussein into a fan (his palaces allegedly contained many pictures of the pop princess), and now a new law named in her honor is being brought into effect in Los Angeles.
The law requires paparazzi to become licensed, and to obey certain restrictions about where they can and cannot be. This is to avoid problems like the need for a police escort and motorcade every time that Britney is hospitalized for her mental problems.
The law hasn't been a hit with law enforcement however, LAPD Chief William Bratton spoke out about the law saying: "What we need is for Britney Spears to stay home instead of traipsing all over town. That would solve the problem. We don't need additional laws¦I've got laws coming out my ears to deal with this issue."
"What you have is several young women in this town and several young men basically making fools of themselves and tying up not only my resources but the resources of the media that would do better covering legitimate stories instead of a bunch of airheads running around out there¦Quite clearly some of these characters so favored by the paparazzi are clearly in need of services. Not police services, but psychiatric services."
