You don’t need to believe it to feel kinda gross, like you need to take a shower. Britney Spears and K-Fed have apparently been having phone sex.

A pointless news item? Maybe. But semi-sweet while being totally disgusting.

Technically, he is still her ex-husband. In reality, he’s her ex-husband that has been winning custody hearing after custody hearing. Shouldn’t you be allowed to have phone sex with the guy who is raising your kids?

But it’s still Britney and K-Fed.

They started this little experiment one night at 2AM when Britney couldn’t sleep, so she called to talk about her children. One thing lead to another and they talked each other off.

Now, according to Star Magazine: A source said, “They have phone sex often — at least once a week. The one thing those two have in common is their need for sex, and after they get going, there are no holds barred.”

Oooooohh. So gross.
