Columbus Short Almost Stomped Britney's Yard

So to speak. If you thought Isaac Cohen had a stranglehold on the "Random Dudes Linked Romantically to Britney Spears" category, well, you best think again.

Spears' One-Time Fling

Sir Isaac might be her most recent fling, but according to TMZ, back in 2003, actor Columbus Short was involved with Britney - and while his wife was 7 months pregnant.

Sound like anyone you know?

The choreographer-turned-actor, who is promoting his new film, Stomp the Yard, was recently asked by entertainment reporter Jawn Murray how it feels to have a life that didn't go the way of Kevin Federline.

So to speak.

Noticeably taken aback by the inquiry, Columbus Short replied:

"I believe in my talent ... not to diss Kevin, he's a boy of mine ... I'm grateful in the career decisions that I've made and God directing my path."

Wow. You heard it here first: God hates Britney Spears.
