According to various media reports, Britney Spears has fired longtime publicist Leslie Sloane-Zelnick and taken charge of her own publicity.

And it’s no wonder, considering how well that worked out for Tom Cruise — and how well Britney handled her gum- and cleavage-popping Dateline interview. Smart move, Brit-Brit!

In less cringe-worthy Brit news, Spears did manage to negotiate a lucrative deal for the exclusive rights to the first photos of Sutton. Although OK! magazine reportedly bid close to $2 million for the first photos, Spears turned down the deal and decided to go with People. People also published the first photos of Sean Preston, as well as pics from her wedding to K-Fed.

Sources also tell Holy Candy that K-Fed insists on donating sixty percent of that money to African children in need. And that he has an IQ of 150. And can sprout wings and fly like a unicorn.

Wow. Britney is one lucky lady.
