THE tabloid gravy train for the family of Britney Spears has derailed now that Kent Brownridge is publishing the American version of OK! magazine. Brownridge, a veteran of Rolling Stone, tightened OK!’s purse strings and severed the magazine’s relationship with the Spears clan. Before his arrival, the Spears family sold OK! exclusives on everything from Jamie Lynn’s pregnancy to Britney’s first photo shoot with her kids. Now patrirch Jamie Spears refuses to work with OK!, and the mag bans its staff from Spears events. A rep for OK! denied any schism: “We always follow the Spears - in fact, Britney is on our current cover, and we’ll continue running stories about them. We need them, and they need us, and we both know it.”
