Britney Spears Sued by Dancer for Breaking Her Nose; Dancer Wants a Jury Trial in the Britney Spears Incident

Britney Spears Sued: Britney Spears  is reportedly being sued sued. Spears was sued by a back-up dancer who alleges the singer broke her nose during rehearsal of a routine for a music video. 

Britney Spears, the Hit Me One More Time singer, is being sued for battery and negligence this time. In 2011, Britney settled a suit with a former bodyguard who claimed she sexually harassed him when he was working for the singer.

Newsbeat published reports on the lawsuit, saying that dancer Dawn Noel claims Britney Spearks struggled to follow "simple directions" during the taping of the music video. Noel is demanding a jury trial. 

According to the documents Dawn Noel Pignuola, who dances as Dawn Noel, stated that "although the choreography involving Spears was fairly basic, [the singer] was having difficulty learning the moves, performing dance steps and following simple directions."

The dancer claims she was injured during the filming of the Britney Spears' "Work Bitch" music video.Spears' management apparently 
offered to pay for the dancer's medical expenses but Noel's lawyer Sark Ohanian claims that no money has come so far. 

The dancer alleged that Britney accidentally broke her nose she was in a "disheveled and confused state" while working on a video clip. Pignuola sued Spears, claiming Spears' representatives reneged on an offer to pay her medical bills. The  dancer says she suffered a nasal bone fracture that required surgery.

According to  TMZ , Dawn says she was working on the music video for "Work Bitch" last August when "Brit showed up 'in a  disheveled and confused state,' and had considerable difficulty executing even basic moves. According to published reports, Dawn Noel claims she was standing to the side of Britney when the singer "twirled in an unbalanced and reckless manner, arms extended out to her sides and forcefully backhanded" the dancer across the face. Dawn says she was in excruciating pain, but all Britney said was, "I'm sorry," and then continued the rehearsal." 

According to E! News, the lawsuit alleges that there was a "cracking sound," which everyone immediately knew to be Noel's nose. The crack was so loud, according to Dawn Noel, everyone in the room apparently heard it.

Britney allegedly said "I'm sorry" after the incident before continuing with rehearsals.


After taking the pain, the dancer sought medical advice a half hour later. She was told she had a nasal fracture that would require 
surgery.

Spears reportedly said "The diagnosis was a nasal bone fracture which allegedly needed surgery."


Spears's representative and the Reign Deer Entertainment Company told Noel they would take care of all medical bills. When the dancer was told the bills would not be paid for, she proceeded with the lawsuit.
