Kevin Federline - Federline: 'I Am America's Most Hated'

KEVIN FEDERLINE is "America's most hated man" following his split from pop princess BRITNEY SPEARS, the wannabe rapper claims. Federline made the statement during a performance at Hollywood's House Of Blues last night (22NOV06). Since the pair separated earlier this month (NOV06), the 28-year-old has been vilified in the press as a gold-digging freeloader, capitalising on his wife's success and wealth. But a packed house turned out to see a resilient Federline perform tracks from his debut album PLAYING WITH FIRE. After lashing out at his detractors - shouting from the stage, "F**k the haters, f**k the media, f**k the paparazzi" - Federline adapted lyrics to one of his songs; when a member of his entourage asked onstage, "Why does America hate you?" he replied, "Maybe because I took their Queen. I am America's most hated."
