Did Brit really put a hit out on K-Fed?

Hollywood is suddenly buzzing with news that Britney Spears might have hired a hitman to take out Kevin Federline. ET Online are claiming that they have reliable sources in the FBI and LAPD who confirm that a contract was put out on Federline. They do not, however, confirm that it was Britney Spears. Multiple sources are telling ET that authorities made attempts to contact Kevin to warn him of the danger. We were thinking though, how good is this so-called hitman? K-Fed doesn't exactly stay home nights, so if there really was a contract out on him, shouldn't he be dead (or at least a little scared) by now?
