As Brit's new friend Adnan tries to shop the story (complete with pix and video!) of his murky relationship with the fallen pop idol, we can't help but wonder if Britney's aware of what's going on, or if Adnan is just setting her up?

Video of the pair sharing a coffee, a kiss and a lollipop allegedly shot in Santa Barbara Sunday (and looking very staged) has surfaced on the web today, but our photogs were in the seaside city all day yesterday, where it poured rain non-stop - yet the video shows no sign of the precipitation.

We believe that the pair was actually in Palm Springs, not Santa Barbara - is the switch-up just to throw other agencies off their trail, thus making the video even more valuable?

The agency Adnan's affiliated with, Finalpixx, was reportedly shopping around that video for $300,000 this morning when they realized that having made the clip viral online was probably not a good idea so they disabled it.

Seems their original asking price of $5 million for Adnan's story is dropping by the minute!
