Fun Facts about Sam Lutfi

Posted by Michael Musto at 9:00 AM, February 5, 2008

What exactly is a Sam Lutfi—the guy who's been demonized as the Howard K. Stern of Britney's life, supposedly dragging the pop tart into a psycho state while serving as her friend and manager? Well, I did a massive Internet search for you—or actually, I just looked at BritneyBash.com—and found the following tidbits: He's had various tax liens and lawsuits brought against him and some lovely restraining orders too; he was rumored to have stolen Britney's diary in an attempt to peddle it for millions (but he denied there even WAS a diary); he's known for a raging temper that can lead to very nasty threats and maybe even icky violence; an ex-associate of his claims Lutfi deals in "emotional blackmail and extortion" and at one point told the guy everyone hates him and he should just kill himself; and most damagingly of all, he produced a 48-minute film about dirt biking.

Otherwise, he's really nice. Sheesh, just learning this shit makes ME want to get out a restraining order. By the way, the funnest fact of all about Mr. Lutfi is that his first name is shortened from Osamah. Any connection?

But wait, stop the Press-on nails, I mean the presses. Britney needn't worry anymore! As Lutfi is pushed out, all control of her estate and well being has gone to her father! Safety at last! Except he's a complete nightmare too and Britney's fighting to get the control back!

Sam Lutfi is a creep who brags about the control he has over Britney. You can check out some of his text messages as well as information about prior restraining orders:

But didn't Rosie admit she practically stalked Britney with phone calls (or some kind of communication)?

I think that was more of an expression regarding the way Rosie felt and sure she was open to talking with Britney. She first met Britney at age 15 and really liked her and suggested then she go to college "like Jodi." This Lufti creep and his phone call was a whole other story.
