A paparazzo is auctioning off the umbrella Britney Spears used to hit his car in the infamous 2007 attack.
The turquoise green umbrella which Britney Spears swung at a paparazzo’s vehicle in 2007 is being auctioned off.
The incident, which you can view below, saw the singer, get out of a silver Mercedes and shout “f--k you” to Daniel “Dano” Ramos before she hit his Ford Explorer.
Britney then dropped the umbrella, ran into her car, and sped off. At the time the singer was going through a mental breakdown.
“It was a bad moment in her life,” Ramos told Broadly. “Unfortunately it was captured.”
He is now selling off the umbrella and promising to donate 50 percent of the proceeds to a charity of Spears’ choice.

“She knew us already from being out in the streets,” Ramos recalls. “We didn’t know [something was wrong]. We were just going on a daily basis until we figured out what was happening at the time was not good. At the Mobil gas station [on the night of the umbrella incident], I told her I was worried about her.”
“She apologised,” Ramos added. “It wasn’t like I did something bad.”
