LAX TSA lets Britney take a Big Gulp

[LessO2]

Story

Britney Spears did what no one else we know has ever done at LAX -- she took a Big Gulp-esque drink through the conveyor belt at security and drank with aplomb as she walked to her plane.

I'll think of this the next time I see a TSAer go after someone for liquids.

It looks as if her bin did not go through x-ray at all as one of the smurfs was carrying it to her while another bin was coming out of the x-ray.

Even more amazing is that her plane did not explode.

I guess the old rule, "All people are equal, some more than others" has been evidenced again.

Please keep this thread limited to Britney Spears, and do not go OT and start talking about people.

Gee -- I wonder if Blogdad Bob will post the checkpoint video?

OP made a typo in the thread title. Replace "TSA" with "TSO" and it sounds much more like the Brit I read about.

OTOH, they missed the chance to run her thru the Nude-O-Scope to check if she was wearing underwear today? Oh, wait, unnecessary layer of security, we already know the answer.

Lets hope that this was an isolated incident and the TSA at LAX doesn't allow a group of armed Britney Spears through the check point.

Not sure but "Tounge in Cheek"?

Is this the same Britney Spears that said this:

The cool thing about being famous is traveling. I have always wanted to travel across seas, like to Canada and stuff.

I believe so, and I thought it was funny.

But it took me a sec.

Do you mean that Britney considers that underwear an unnecessary layer of security?

They probably made a snap decision -

option A - allow pop diva to carry big gulp through the checkpoint

option B - do not allow pop diva to carry big gulp through checkpoint and stand by helplessly while pop diva throws contents of big gulp cup all over screeners

I'm pretty sure they've seen enough celebs come through the checkpoint that they figured out option A was the better option.

Perhaps we should all through celebrity-inspired fits at the checkpoint as described in option B, thus relieving the Country of this lunacy!!

Blogger Bob is sayin' it ain't true - there were only a few ice chips in the cup and ice chips are allowed.

Blogger Bob speaks

Doesn't ice thaw and turn to liquid:

One thing to remember when bringing ice through the checkpoint: it can't be partially melted. It has to be just the ice with no liquid at the bottom.

My head is spinning.
