Brittny Gastineau was ‘joking around’ over Jamie Lynn Spears abortion claim

Reality star Brittny Gastineau said she was in on the joke when she made an appearance in spoof film Bruno.

In the movie, Sacha Baron Cohen shows the 26-year-old model a picture of what he says is Jamie Lynn Spears’ unborn foetus and asks her if it looks deformed. He then asks her if she thinks Spears should abort or keep the baby. Gastineau then says: “Abort it!”

However, she has now defended her actions and said: “I was joking around. I was spoofing myself.”

Gastineau admitted that when she was first approached to be interviewed by the star, she “didn’t know it was him”.

The model’s reality show, Gastineau Girls, is shown in 54 different countries. She said: “I was confused. I thought maybe it was still playing over there [Austria]. So I was like: ‘OK’. “When I got there, I saw him, and I obviously knew it was him. I was like: ‘Oh, this is funny. This is a joke.’ I just went along with it.”
