Is there a limit to Britney Spears' thirst for celebrity rags' sweet (and lucrative) attention? Page Six examines the new mother's alleged crisis of conscience over selling photos of her adorable widdle moneymaker:

BRITNEY Spears (above) changed her mind about letting the world see her baby. The pop tart posed for studio shots with her new tot, Sean Preston Spears Federline, and hubby Kevin Federline last week in L.A. The pictures by Mark Liddel were supposed to go to People magazine for millions — but the next day, Spears "started freaking out," our insider said. "She started crying that she was selling out her baby and couldn't give up the pictures." A People rep said, "We have not purchased nor paid for any photos of Britney this week."
