In her case, the big worry might be optics.<\/p>\n<p>In a sense, one might argue that this surveillance footage is doing her a favor. Yes, it\u2019s deeply intrusive. But it also shows her buying gum \u2014 rather than a vague mention of her simply stopping at a liquor store.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<p> <iframe title=\"Did Britney Spears Have WILD Night Out?
