Shar Jackson: "Britney Spears Stepchildren are Kidnap Targets"  11/30/05

Britney Spears' one-time love rival Shar Jackson has lashed out at the paparazzi fascination surrounding her children - because it has turned them into kidnap targets.

Pictures of Spears' stepchildren, Kori and Kaleb, have appeared in tabloids throughout the world ever since their father, Kevin Federline, started dating the pop superstar in April 2004 and the kids' mother fears for their safety.

She says, "I was in the grocery store one day with Kori... and these two older women are behind us. All I hear is, 'Oh my God, that's Kori.'

"I turned around, like, 'Are you for real?' I was appalled.

"Paparazzi and other people decide that they want to take pictures and put them on the cover of magazines and things of that nature.

"In all honesty, it makes my children kidnap targets and all kinds of other stuff. People should not know what my babies look like."
