Kevin & Britney: “Just Friends”    ·    March 16th, 2007

Kevin Federline and Britney Spears may be spending quality time, but it’s doubtful the two are getting back together any time soon. For one, Brit’s apparently met a rebound romance in rehab, and a Federline pal tells Usmagazine.com that K-Fed is not interested in rekindling that burned out flame.

“I talked to Kevin about Britney and he said he’s not getting back together with Britney. At least not right now. He just wants to be a friend for her,” the source told Usmagazine.com. “She has told him she would get back with him, but he’s trying to just do the right thing for everyone right now, but he doesn’t want to go back there again.”

A source close to Kevin, 29, says the two were close to working out a divorce settlement earlier this year, until Brit’s antics caused Kevin and his lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, to intercede.

While she dries up in rehab, Spears, 25, is apparently getting “very close” to fellow AA denizen and RIVA lead guitarist Jason Filyaw.

Filyaw, 33, talked to TMZ, and while he wouldn’t admit the two were dating, he allegedly said he loves her.

It’s even been reported that the two already use cutesy little nicknames for each other. He calls the mother of two “Sugar,” “Kitten” and “My Lady,” and responds to his coos of “Mr. Secret Underground Guy” and “J-Sun.”

We’re going to need to surrender to a higher power just to keep from retching.
