According to a report in the New York Post, Spears, 27, has been spending some significant alone time with record producer Dallas Austin at his Atlanta home.

The two were holed up alone for a few nights together, reportedly discussing "music, life and work."

If judging on Brit-Brit's record alone, Trawick certainly has some serious issues to consider. After all, she was rumored to have ruined her relationship with Timberlake by cheating on him with hunky choreographer Wade Robson.

And who could forget her relationship with Kevin Federline, which began when another woman was pregnant with his baby. But a rep for Austin denies any kind of romantic relationship between Spears and his client, insisting that the two are "good friends and have been for a long time." Now there's one we've never heard in Hollywood.
