There have been times when it seemed as if the Britney Spears vs Kevin Federline custody showdown would most closely resemble two yokels scrapping over who gets to eat today’s serving of roadkill, with all the good stuff kept secret.

But maybe not any more; the judge given the impossible task of deciding whether Sean Preston and Jayden James would be better off under the care of Britney Spears or Kevin Federline – when the whole world knows that they’d both be better off slung into the lion den at the local zoo covered in bits of gazelle – has decided to listen to arguments saying that all the legal filings in the Britney Spears/ Kevin Federline custody showdown should be made public. And if that happens, we’ll all get to know what tremendous arseholes Britney Spears and Kevin Federline are in even more explicit detail than ever. If that’s humanly possible.
