Jason Alexander, the man Britney Spears was married to for 55 hours, livestreamed himself 'crashing' her wedding venue
- Britney Spears and longtime boyfriend Sam Asghari are reportedly getting married Thursday night.
- Hours before the ceremony, Jason Allen Alexander (who wed Spears in 2004) arrived uninvited.
Sheriff's deputies have arrested Jason Allen Alexander — a man who was married to Britney Spears for 55 hours in 2004 — after Alexander arrived uninvited to Spears' wedding at her home in Thousand Oaks, California.
The Ventura County Sheriff's Department confirmed the incident to Insider, noting that the arrest happened at the venue and the investigation is ongoing.
TMZ was first to report on how Alexander had livestreamed himself as he approached Spears' house and entered the venue area in the backyard. The video was reportedly broadcast live from Alexander's Instagram account. A Twitter account devoted to Spears shared a screen record of video that shows Alexander giving a tour of the inside of a wedding tent, where he says "here's the inside scoop at the bullshit wedding." He also says that he's "crashing" the event.
Neither Spears, Asghari, nor any wedding guests appear to have been inside the venue at the time.
Alexander was childhood friends with Spears. The pair made news waves when they got married in a surprise ceremony in Las Vegas. It was the pop star's first marriage — but the union was annulled within 55 hours.
E! News reports that Alexander is being charged with "trespassing, vandalism and battery" after his wedding "crash" on Thursday afternoon.
Earlier on Thursday, Alexander had uploaded a video on Instagram with the caption "follow the money" and the hashtag #freedom
In the clip, he speaks to the camera with a black baseball hat on backwards and says that everyone associated with Britney Spears should be "investigated."
"Lou Taylor, Sam Asghari, all his sisters, everyone in his family, Kate Hudson, Larry Rudolph, Bryan Spears, Jamie Lynn Spears, Lynne Spears, Jamie Spears," he begins. "Everybody that's been associated with Britney in the last 20 years, even me. Let's do an investigation on me, also."
He continues on, saying the investigation should focus on financials — an area of Spears' estate that has been the focus in recent hearings for her ongoing conservatorship.
Alexander says he's been learning about "C-corps and S-corps and LLCs and umbrella corporations and how you're able to basically pump and dump." The man then tells his followers (which are currently numbered at about 6,000) to think about people who have an LLC connected to Spears, saying they should be audited.
Spears' lawyer Mathew Rosengart did not immediately return Insider's request for comment.
Earlier today, news broke that Spears and her fiancé Sam Asghari were set to marry on Thursday night at the pop star's mansion
The news was reported on Thursday as paparazzi images of a wedding tent emerged from Spears' home in Thousand Oaks — a city north of the Los Angeles, California area.
People magazine reports that Spears' parents, Jamie and Lynne Spears, along with her younger sister Jamie Lynne, a namesake of her parents, were not included in the celebration.
Over the last year, both of Spears' parents and her younger sister were the subject of much scrutiny as the singer's conservatorship battle raged on.
After the legal guardianship, which her father Jamie had overseen for 13 years, was terminated last November, Spears frequently posted Instagram captions and stories about her experience of alleged abuse at the hands of her family, including feelings of ire towards her little sister's memoir.
Spears has two sons from a previous marriage to Kevin Federline: Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden James, 15. According to People, neither of her sons will attend the wedding.
"They're happy for their mom and they are hopeful that Sam and Britney are starting a great future together," Federline's lawyer told People. "It's their night and they didn't want to take away from them."
Spears and Asghari got engaged in September 2021, a couple of months before a Los Angeles judge ruled in favor of terminating the conservatorship.
In April 2022, Spears and Asghari announced they were expecting their first child together. About a month later, Spears revealed on Instagram that she had miscarried and was no longer pregnant.
Asghari made a rare public statement about his relationship with Spears and the miscarriage in a profile interview for GQ.
"It's something that happens to a lot of people," the 28-year-old actor and personal trainer said. "A beautiful thing somebody had said was, it's a common process and the female body is just so amazing, and just the human body in general is so beautiful that it heals itself. And that when the baby's ready it'll be the right time."
