Britney Spears bra tank top shortsBritney Spears bra tank top shortsBritney Spears looked decidedly depressed yesterday afternoon after reports she beat her boys with a belt surfaced.

Wearing short shorts and a tank, Britney tried to escape this recent blow to her reputation by running errands in Calabasas along with her father, Jaime, and a bodyguard.

According to a report, not only did Sean Preston, 4, and Jayden James, 3, suffer a beating from Britney's belt, but she also fed them food they were allergic to!

Considering that Britney's only just gotten the boys back after temporarily losing custody to K-Fed two years ago, were not surprised these new allegations, leveled by a former bodyguard, would upset the pop princess.

Plus, they don't help her much in her fight to regain control over her life and end her father's conservatorship.

Do you think Britney could really have done such a thing?
