In the wake of reports about Jason Trawick's alleged abuse of Britney Spears, the star and her camp are doing all they can to paint a picture of happiness.
Right after the scandal broke, Trawick whisked her off to a private, $5,000 a night villa in Conchas Chinas, Mexico, to mark her 29th birthday last week.
The duo denies and shrugs off the abuse rumor, with her telling Us, "My birthday weekend away with Jason was amazing. Best birthday of my life!"

There have been several theories, ranging from the star’s camp planting the rumor to generate buzz for her new album to Team Spears laboring to cover it up.
Some think the Mexican getaway was merely a publicity stunt designed to make the troubled couple appear happy. In truth, some say the superstar is trapped.
“Britney is a cash cow,” an insider says. “Her parents and management are trying to keep the scandal under wraps so it doesn’t affect her career - or the paychecks.”
What we don't understand is why, even if Britney Spears supposedly called Jason Alexander to vent about the abuse by Trawick, he would record the call.
Was he looking to sell her out for money? And did he edit it himself? Why did experts conclude the tape was doctored? Did Star know it was doctored?
If abuse did take place, we can understand why Brit would not want it to go public, but why stay with Jason and go through this charade afterward?
The whole thing is very suspicious. Tell us what you think.
