So, if US Weekly’s account is substantially true, the publication is in the clear. But is it? To begin, it’s helpful for the magazine’s case that “Chaotic” was presented as truth. Indeed, Britney asked viewers, “Can you handle my truth?” Thus, if the substance of “Chaotic” were the same as the substance of the US Weekly article, Spears might not have a libel suit. Unfortunately for US Weekly, though, I think a “substantial truth” argument is unlikely to work here. Many couples who might talk about their lovemaking, as Spears and Federline reportedly did in “Chaotic,” and make out enthusiastically on a balcony in public view – photographs have been published in which Spears appears to be gripping Federline’s groin — would still draw the line at making an X-rated video of themselves.
