E! Online’s Ted Casablanca chatted with ‘Hairspray’ star Harvey Fierstein who plays playing Edna Turnblad, after the Broadway star met Britney Spears during a recent showing.

Asked who Britney was dating, Harvey said, “What do I know from this girl? She was with her mother and her sister. She just stood there and had nothing to say, other than, ‘I guess I’ve taken up enough of your time.'”

“You got that right, babe! I mean, what am I going to say to her? ‘Stop embarrassing your mother, already?!'”
