Oh ffs, give it a rest, x17. You must have a sore butt from talking out it so often. This isn't her "new lawyer".

Gawd. Blathering on, you are, and none of it has any substance. Just focus on other news 'til something REALLY happens with Ms. Spears.

ya know, heres the thing. shes the one who earned all that money, and she definitely has the right to do whatever she wants. its her business to loose it all and regret it later. but its her choice

She has been violated! What else does she have if she has no rights? First her kids, now her rights? NO.. Poppa Spears needs to back off!!!

I say let her get control back of her life. I figure the way she was fucking up anyways she'll be dead by Memmorial day.

Grow up, Britney! Swallow ur pride and accept that u need your parents there to guide u! Ur parents are right, Sam Lufti is evil! Once u realized that, u ll be fine! =:o)

Too bad she did not fight as passionately for her sons!
Beyond her disease she is coming off like a selfish, spoiled child!

GIVE IT UP X17.

She has NO new lawyer.

The case hasn't been switched to the Federal courts.

OMG.
You're Puppets for Sam/Sands and you look like fools.

GIVE IT UP X17.

OMG.
You're Puppets for Sam/Sands and you look like fools.

She's incapable of taking care of her kids. She's incapable of taking care of herself. Her conservators are making sure her basic needs are met: sleep, food, shelter, meds. Sam basically acted as her "conservator" but he was not acting in Britney's best interest. The Federal Court has not heard this case and is not likely to hear it. Things will remain the same (hopefully).

I really think this BULL!!! Sam is desperate for his sugar mama and is feeding this QUACK Michael Sands. Let Britney get better, before she kills herself so Sam can piss on her grave.

This dude isn't her new lawyer. She can't hire a lawyer, he's just an ambulance chaser. And how is it she "hired" some guy from new york? Its such bs!

This dude isn't her new lawyer. She can't hire a lawyer, he's just an ambulance chaser. And how is it she "hired" some guy from new york? Its such bs!

X17 -- Give it up! Eardley is not her attorney. Spear's person is under conservatorship and only her conservators could hire or fire attorneys. This case is not going to federal court because Eardley does not have standing to represent Spears. Even if he did, it's doubtful there's a federal court that would take this case at this time. Oh, and by the way, does Eardley have admission(s) to any federal courts?

You make me sick X17!!

You loved it when Britney was out making a spectacle of herself ~ the paparazzi and owners of X17 were making a nice living off of Britney's illness.

Now you have your head up Sam's ass thinking he will be back in the picture ~ I doubt that will happen anytime in the near future!

OK. I LOVE BRIT, BUT.........
She brought this on herself. SHE GETS PAID MILLIONS TO HAVE HER LIFE BLASTED ALL OVER HELL. ANY Celebrity does. Thats why they are paid millions. It's their job. BOO FUCKING HOO. If they can't take it go work a real job and get paid like $35,000 a year or whatever and "be normal". But if you want millions and want all the attention (we all know she craves) then get the fuck over it. THIS IS THE LIFE OF A CELEBRITY and/or MILLIONAIRE WHO CHOSE TO MAKE THEIR LIFE PUBLIC. Move, go somewhere else, whatever.....

This lawyer is a joke, and all legal experts say so. He has no case, at all. This is just some sick ploy.

I asked this another posted: How the hell can this guy be her new lawyer? I thought she couldn't retain any new counsel at this time without approval and I highly doubt Jamie would have given the okay.

This lawyer has already proven himself to be a fool be making statements that Britney is "a prisoner in her home" even though the media has well documented her outings ever since being released from the hospital. She is not prisoner, she just can't go out and act a fool at all hours.

This clown is just yet another person out for publicity and $$$ and probably has something to do with Sam (is it a coincidence that the lawyer and Sam both have Sands working for them?).

Nobody wants to hear from Micheal Sand a$$-hole or oSAMa A$$-hole!!ITS ALL BS! Get over it oSAMa, you CAN'T Have Britney's MONEY ANYMORE!!!!

I RECONIZE DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY

GOD BLESS AMERICA

HUMAN RIGHT ONLY HUMAN RIGHT

IF she has a lawyer why is he airing comments that would be priviledged info. You are making up stories & that is not in Britney's best interest. STOP.

It's obvious X17 is in bed with Sam Lutfi. Perhaps that would change once Sam starts to drug the folks in charge of X17 and demands money for making the decisions of X17, like he did with Britney.

This is not an argument for Britney's rights. This is an argument for Sam's right's to continue to control her for his own greedy purposes. Either way, Britney is not in control.

America is not a democracy. It is a republic.

I work in a law office that specializes in civil rights. I was stunned by the Commissioner's ruling. EVEN IF it was justified to February 14th, after that, it definitely was not. Our country's constitution was specifically created to avoid such a violation of rights as Britney is suffering. Even if her Dad means well, this is outrageous and unlawful. Even if it is a ruling by a Commissioner, it is an unlawful ruling and some court will come forward and say so. This is one of the most shocking things I have ever seen. This is so brutal. No one (except for attorneys) seems to realize how awful is what is going on to Britney Spears. You have to try to completely put yourself in her position and see how you would feel. It's scary and unlawful. I completely support the new attorney who is trying to have Britney regain the rights that you and I and everyone in America is entitled to.

I think that if she wants to fuck up her life then that IS her right. Now that she has gotten away from sam for awhile I think that she might see things in a different light. Lets hope so. Every American has the right to freedom. And if she chooses to fuck it up is that not her right?

Memorial day? That is being way to opimistic. I'd give her to Easter before she is 6 feet under if Sam Lufti regains control of her lif. Really how long does it take to drug someone so far out of their mind and have them sign everything over to you? I'd say he was getting close before Pappa Spears jumped in.

What's so "unlawful" about it, 10:08? It's done and done fairly often. It is to PROTECT someone, no harm them.

Nothing shocking or brutal about a temporary conservatorship to try and get this woman's life back on track.

Drama. Bah.

Stop acting like you are the New York Times and just admit that you are a useless pap blog site that has no access to "exclusive news" because you do not practice journalism. You will take any lie that comes your way to make it seem like you have a exclusive story. Just stop it already!

This is not shocking or brutal. Real lawyers realize this is totally legal and correct. You are ignorant to think the way Britney is being treated is unlawful. Americans do not have the right to drive cars. It's only a privilege.

All of the paps and tabs (X17 included) have taken a big hit to their wallets now that Britney isn't out wreaking havoc day and night. Naturally they want her back on the street.

She doesn't have any rights, she's a fucking worthless piece of garbage.
What about the rights of her children???
fucking whore, I hope she falls under a lorry. Her kids would be so much better off without her. She is no mother.

Ms. Law office/civil rights 10:08, since your so "familar" with the law you must know all about conservitorships & how a conserved person cannot "hire" a Attorney? Oh and the LAPD is investigating oSAMa who drugged Britney out of her mind and stole her money, you call that Freedom???

Stop acting like you are the New York Times and just admit that you are a useless pap blog site that has no access to "exclusive news" because you do not practice journalism. You will take any lie that comes your way to make it seem like you have a exclusive story. Just stop it already!

Get the opinion of a Legal Expert and not 10:08.

Put yourself in the position of a Manic person AFTER they stablize and are grateful someone who loved and cared about them took over and brought in other professionals to help.

Everyone out there thinks that this new
Conservatorship that Britney's dad has undertaken is a good thing only because she isnt out there running the streets and the paps are all over her like before but I think PEOPLE are forgetting that Britney has Legal Rights!!!
Usually a Conservator is granted when the person cant do anything like someone in a coma, or someone who is developmentally disabled Britney isnt either of these things. Britney has Bi-polar which causes mood swings and crazy behavior. Highs and Lows as if she were on drugs. One min that person is happy and normal and the slightest change in their schedule can make that person very sad. Their moods can change in the blink of an eye. Most bi-polar patients can be treated with medication it is just a matter of finding which combination works best for that person and it does take time to figure that out. What people are not understanding is that even though Britney has this condition she isnt unable to fix food or wipe her ass or talk on the phone or drive a car. So YES Britney's Civil Rights are being violated and it isnt fair that someone can just step in and take over another persons life like her parents have. Look at it this way when addicts have a problem their parents cant just step in and take their lives away. They cant have them committed to rehab or take away their Civil Rights. If that were the case no one would ever be addicted to drugs. Because if they were we could help them. So hey people you need to realize what has happened to
Britney and realize how wrong it is.
I understand she needs help but holding her hostage isnt the way to help her!! They have done nothing more than to kidnap Britney and are holding her hostage and that is against the law!!
You should look at this as the California courts have allowed a legal kidnapping and if it happened to Britney it could happen to anyone!!!

She's batshit crazy. She's not competent enough to make the decision to get behind the wheel of a car. She obviously is not well and needs to continue to lay low while trying to get healthy. She's probably going nuts because her dealers aren't able to supply her habits anymore. Now that Daddy is calling the shots, she can't act like the attention whore she is or do what she wants to do and it's killing her. Sucks to be mentally incapacitated doesn't it, Brit?

She is a criminal, child abuse is a crime IMO is the worst crime there is.

10:13 you said it this "WOMEN". She has the right to freedom. Her rights are being violated. Regardless if she is famous or not. I do not think that people fully understand what is truly wrong with this picture. The lawyers should pursue this, not just for Britney but for every American. What is happening to her is wrong on so many level. What you people do not seem to understand is that it not only effects her outcome but also every American. That is why the lawyers are doing this. SO AMERICANS can be protected from things like this from happening to YOU!!!

What has she done that merits this stripping of her constitutional rights? One out of every 2 person you see probably has done much worse in his or her life. The judge that said she can't hire her own lawyer!!??? This is a scandal of our justice system. Since when aren't you well enough to hire your own lawyer!!! That new attorney is the only one who is fighting for her rights. Let's hope he is successful because there's no one else fighting for Britney's rights at the moment.

Well, okay, I can see why the conservators would have control over her business affairs. But, does that mean they can have control over all her comings and goings? Seems to me she should be able to. And, maybe the reason why she doesn't seem "happy" is because she no longer is willing to play around with the paps, now that she is off her meds. After all, her dad never smiles when he's photographed by the paps. Is he a prisoner, too? When she was out shopping with her mom, she seemed happy; when she was at the dance studio, she seemed happy. We saw pictures of her smiling then.

re: 10:08 - As someone who worked at a NY DA's office and a federal defense firm, specializing in mental issues - even if these arguments are viable, and even if she has "hired" an attorney (note - the law, and I, don't think she did)
Eardley will be removed with a simple motion because of conflict of interest. This is because Mark Kaplan's old spokesperson, who was close to him and knew the details of the Federline custody battle (which is the basis of the suit they are attempting to move to federal court), is now the spokesperson for the new attorney.

What a spoiled, ungrateful little tramp.
It's all I WANT, I WANT I WANT.
Everything is about what she wants, she is self absorbed and narcissistic.
Everything her parents are do is in her best interests, they are trying to protect her. She doesn't deserve to be loved and looked after. She's an ugly human being. She didn't put this much effort into getting her own kids back because everything has to be about her.
selfish ugly slut.

There are actually many people under conservatorships at this very moment. They are there for a reason. The person needs protection from themselves. This may not be something they will understand for a long time, but it is necessary. There is a reason many mentally incapacitated people cannot enter into contracts. They are not capable of truly understanding all the factors.

Yes, In this case they have control over her well being, which includes her medical needs and protecting her from people like Sam the Sham, Sands, X17 and their paps, dirty business mgrs and slimey attys.
People who are Shady opportunists.
And protecting her from herself.

Mental illness is debilitating and prohibits sound judgment the same way that drug addiction does. Addicts go through the same process and I guarantee they want their freedom too.
SO the answer is (according to some) that their freedom is more important than their safety and we should allow all people suffering from debilitating conditions that prohibit sound judgment to self destruct?
Not in America!! Thank God!

February 18, 2008 10:17 AM "you said it..."

Cut the dramatics. She is not being chained to a radiator in her basement being teased with frapps and Red Bull all day. So she can't act a fool whenever she feels like. Boo freaking hoo. It's about time someone laid down the law with this loon.

It has been clearly stated by the courts that she is not allowed to hire any attorney for herself at this time. She did not hire this guy and she is not allowed to hire anyone becasue she is mentally unable to make decisions for herself at this time and until the State court rules otherwise the only thing this BOZO is doing is filing for a lost cause. The only thing a FEDERAL court will do is hand it back to the state however, this BOZO is just trying to interject himself into this hoping to take the focus off OSAMA LUFTI's CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION. They are in hopes that OSAMA, SANDS and the whole bunch of them can get BRitney back under their control to maintain her instability. If any courts allows this to happen I give up on the SYSTEM of JUSTICE in AMERICA. She is clearly unstable and the first signs of stability in her life in over a year has been since the court stepped in and gave conservatorship to her father. X17 you are PIG VOMIT>>>>YOU ONLY WANT HER TO so CALLED REGAIN HER FREEDOM SO YOU CAN EXPLOIT HER. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!!!!!I hope JAMIE SPEARS gets a restraining order against the lot of you>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Driving a car is a privilege, not a right. Britney should not be allowed to drive, at this point.

Yes 10;24 that is right. But most of those people are in metal homes, with "SEVERE" problems. Not because they missed court, took drugs, did not want to see their kids,or what ever else was the reason they are saying. Hell the hospital would not even keep her. Yup she is a BIG threat all right.

Hey x17, it's easier for you to exploit Britney if she's still crazy, right? Stop talking about her rights, you don't care about her well being.

Conservatorships are not just for people in comas. That is plain ridiculous. Britney does not appear to be stable, yet.

Driving a car is a privilege, not a right. Britney should not be allowed to drive, at this point.

I heard that in some countries unsafe adult drivers have their licenses taken away from them by the police instead of having their parents imprison them. Funny how different some cultures are.

Her "antics" have caused people to listen more to her music. The album "Blackout" has gone gold or diamond or whatever, in this or that country. Not only is Britney a charismatic and talented singer/dancer, but she is also a brilliant business woman who knows how to publicize herself. Some of her videos on YouTube have had MILLIONS of viewers, up to 15 million or more in some videos. And the songs on the BLACKOUT album are outstanding. Gimme More. Piece of Me. Why Should I Be Sad. Break the Ice. Look at the official and unofficial videos of these on YouTube. Absolutely spectacular. And when you read the lyrics, on those little bits of lyrics, she has fleshed out so much with her beauty, voice, energy. She is a stunning performer. Her record company is a fantastic musical support. She made her money herself, with her focus, her hard work, her voice, her touring. Her money is HER money. She has the right to do what she wants with it. As for Sam "the bad guy," how many guys don't have a fight with a woman and say dumb stuff like that. We won't admit it but it's true. The meds, questionable judgment but he was keeping her stabilized. No matter who is the man in Britney's life, we will always consider him bad and wrong. Britney's lonely without her kids, she's a young mother whose children were stolen from her for the sake of money. She's keeping herself busy by driving around at night. As for the paps, she seems to like them. Obviously they are stand-ins for us because we are looking daily and several times a day in some cases for Britney news. I would hate to hurt her father's feelings. I realize he's trying hard and it can't be easy. But taking over her life is not the answer. And denying her the right to hire her own attorney is shocking.

The hospital had to release her. She was NOT considered a danger to herself or anyone else. The Commissioner is allowing her to be controlled with her own money as her Dad uses Bodyguards not to protect her but to control her. To physically stop her from exercisng her own will. She has not even been evaluated by a court shrink yet. NONE of the allegations were investigated. People can say ANYTHING and I am sorry but Lynne's story was extremely skewed. Do you really think that Sam is that stupid to have said those kinds of things to her family? And why would Lynne wait three days if she thought that was really happening to her daughter? She left her.... who would leaver her daughter's side? Sam was begging her to stay for Britney's sake. The commissioner is believing this crap? She seems to be reasoning that if Sam is served the restraining order and then comes to court to fight these bullshit stories... that is what she is waiting for? The commissione seems to be holding Britney hostage by her father based on she said/he said. And holding Sam guilty if he refuses to allow himself to be put in such ridiculous scrutiny. The most ridiculous thing is that Britney has been released by the hospital yet a court lawyer spent 15 minutes with her and deamed her unable to be mentally competent to hire a lawyer? It serves this guy well because he then becomes court appointed and PAID instead of Britney being allowed to choose her lawyer.

People plenty of people have mental illnesses and get well without being CONTROLLED BY BODY GUARDS. This is all about the money. Sam was NOT drugging Britney he was making sure that she was getting the medication prescribed to her by Dr. Nadel a shrink Britney chose. If he was crushing medication it was a sleeping pill prescribed by Dr. Nadel to put in her food.

There is no mental illness here at all.
Britney is an arrogant narcissist. Karma is about to catch up with her and it won't be pretty.

Britney's lonely without her kids, she's a young mother whose children were stolen from her for the sake of money. She's keeping herself busy by driving around at night. That's not REALLY so bad! As for the paps, she seems to like them. Obviously they are stand-ins for us because we are looking daily and several times a day in some cases for Britney news. I would hate to hurt her father's feelings. I realize he's trying hard and it can't be easy. But taking over her life is not the answer.

This 'rights stuff' is such bullshit. Jamie is not doing anything an Inpatient Mental Health Facility would not do. Check yourself in and see how many rights you have in there. She has it damn good compared to that. It's for your own good, so you can recover and heal. Some People are such fuckin whiners.

Britney's driving was a big problem. She is just not "unsafe" for typical reasons. The police generally do not research people's mental records. That is for a court to decide.

No, mental patients do not have the same "rights" as non-mental patients. Apparently this lawyer would argue that murders should be allowed to carry guns because it's their "right". This guy is only out for cash---and he's probably the ONLY lawyer in Hollywood who would represent this ridiculous claims. That says A LOT, folks.

That's ridiculous - it's not unlawful. The whole point of having a conservatorship in the first place is to limit the decision-making abilities of the person who has been deemed incapable of making such decisions. The person of 10:08 may work in a law office, but he/she is clearly not a lawyer.

If Britney could make her own decisions, she wouldn't be in this position in the first place. This "lawyer" cannot be her lawyer and so has absolutely no standing to request a removal. Sam Lutfi is a dirty pig who has known Britney for all of 5 months - arguably her worst 5 months, too. I can't believe some of you would actually believe that he has a more genuine concern for Britney's well-being than her own family.

BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH X17

BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH X17

U R SO BIASED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well, it could be true about her rights being violated, ironically, she would probably be glad they were, once she come to the realization of what she has been doing with her own life when she gets more sanity and clarity. and ironically before, she got everything she wanted, for example with Kevin, she chased him, she proposed to him, she bought her own engagement ring, she paid for the wedding, and she gave him spending money and money to get his career off the ground. so what if he is a bum? she made their relationship happen. now she is realizing it is not good to get everything you think you want, and it is making her crazy. but the paps violate her right to privacy.

Hey stupid 10:08.. you have not followed the story from the start. IF you did you would realize what you said was stupid. SO STFU!!!!

No, Sam was not keeping her stabilized. She was anything but. He is in deep trouble for drugging her because that is a CRIME. Her business manager was fired because he refused to hand over e-mails from Sam where he demanded money. There has been much criminal activity going on for a while there, and the conservators are going to have to clean it all up. Britney in her right mind would thank them.

Ok 10:32 look at Amy Winehouse she is completely NUTS and a JUNKIE do you see her parents being able to do anything about it? NO because they dont have the right to... I didnt say just for people in Comas I said for people in comas and Developmentally Disabled people who physically and mentally cannot care for themselves. Britney can care for herself. She may not be doing a Great job of it but she is capable of doing so. When a conservator is appointed the person cannot care for themselves physically or mentally. That is not the case with Britney. Britney may be unstable and she may be a little nuts but she can maintain a home, cook, clean, bathe, use the bathroom, feed herself, talk on the phone, etc. She doesnt need someone to do all that for her. Ok let see I dont like your lifestyle so I think I will go to court and ask to be your conservator and take your life away and make it the way I think it should be. Does that sound fair? Not to mention they have turned her life over to her GREEDY MONEY HUNGRY DRUNK ASS DAD AND PILL POPPING MOM WHO WANT NOTHING MORE THAN TO USE BRITNEY FOR HER MONEY. Now they are just able to do it (legally)!!!

X17 is SO FULL OF SHIT. Fabricating stories, AS USUAL. It's getting SO OLD.
If Shitney wanted 'out, trust me, she'd be OUTTA there so fast our heads would be spinning.

10:17 - Britney has never been found to have abused her children. Don't be stupid.

Driving a car is a privilege, not a right. Britney should not be allowed to drive, at this point.

If Britney's on the right meds, she shouldn't be driving anyway! I'm sure the script label includes something like, "Do not operate machinery or drive." On the other hand, if she doesn't know what insomnia is, I doubt if she'll understand not driving. Which begs the question: If she doesn't know about insomnia, how does she know about her civil rights? Highly doubtful.

As for Sam "the bad guy," how many guys don't have a fight with a woman and say dumb stuff like that. We won't admit it but it's true. The meds, questionable judgment but he was keeping her stabilized. No matter who is the man in Britney's life, we will always consider him bad and wrong. Sam is guilty of showing off too much, of being too proud of being the mega goddess, Britney Spears' close friend and confidante. Britney's lonely without her kids, she's a young mother whose children were stolen from her for the sake of money.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Ah, where do I start?!!?

First, try typing in the words "manipulator" and "signs" into Google. Read an article like "The Top 10 Signs of a Classic Manipulator." Osamah Lutfi exhibits EVERY ONE of these signs. He is NOT Britney's friend - he's a con artist.

Now I wonder if the LAPD will be able to back me up on this...let's wait and see!

If Brit decided after all this to go back to living the way she was before the conservatorship then it's going to be all on her. I don't want to hear anyone else ask "Where are her mom and dad? Why are they allowing this to go on?"

YEA SHE WANTS HER RIGHTS BACK

THE RIGHT TO BE A DRUNKEN WHORE

THE RIGHT TO BE A DRUG ADDICT

THE RIGHT TO FUCK ANYTHING WITH A PULSE

THE RIGHT TO SPEAK LIKE A RETARD IN A BRITISH ACCENT

THE RIGHT NOT TO BATHE

THE RIGHT TO SHOW HER PUSSY TO THE WORLD

THE RIGHT TO WEAR A STUPID PINK WIG

THE RIGHT TO BE A UNFIT MOTHER

THE RIGHT FOR SOMEONE TO DO A LINE OF COKE OFF HER 9O YEAR OLD LOOKING TITS

THE RIGHT TO MAKE THE WORST SOUNDING MUSIC IN THE WORLD.

THE RIGHT TO STEAL

THE RIGHT TO ABUSE THE LAW ,AND GET AWAY WITH IT.

THE RIGHT TO FAKE THE CRAZIES EVERY 2 WEEKS TO MAKE SURE SHE DOESN'T GET THE MISTAKES BACK.

THE RIGHT TO DRIVE ,AND ENDANGER PEOPLES LIVES.

Amy W. may be a druggie but apparently she's not BATSHIT CRAZY like our Brit Brit. 'Gravely disabled' must mean SOMEthing. It's Amy's choice/right to smoke crack, yes, but even when she's stoned out of her mind she's not as crazy as Shitney!

You are not "TEAM BRITNEY 100%" if you want her conservators to go away. Anyone truly caring about her welfare is extremely glad for them. Mentally incompetant people do not enter into contracts. They might be capable of signing one, but they are not capable of understanding all the details and ramifications. A lot of mentally ill people may not appear mentally ill 100% of the time, or you may see them somewhere and not realize it. That does not mean they are not mentally ill or that they think clearly.

"Her "antics" have caused people to listen more to her music"

It's not "her" music. She didn't write, compose or produce any of it. The words throughts do not come from her. There is no creativity from her at all.

OH PLEASE THE FUCKIN SKANK IS NOT BAT CRAZY.

JUST A WASHED UP JUNKIE MORON

"Gimme More" has just officially been gold certified, meaning more than 500,000 units in the U.S. have been shipped according to Billboard.com. This is what Britney's antics have done. Brought the world to listen and appreciate her music after being away from the scene for four years. Not too crazy.

Britney Spears Steals Shirt From LA Store

According to reports, Britney Spears stole a shirt from the Fred Segal store in Los Angeles. A witness claims the troubled star ‘forgot’ to pay for a $200 top she had tried on.

“Britney seemed to be in a daze. She rushed around looking at coats and bags and then left with her gang of 25 people,” said the witness. “The staff were just staring at each other, then said ‘I think she’s taken a top.’ There was chaos outside with fans and police.”

Last December, Spears stole a lighter from a gas station. The singer was caught on tape bragging about saying, “I stole something. Oh, I’m bad. Ohhhh!”

Meanwhile, Spears' father Jamie Spears currently has control of the singer's estate. He was appointed co-conservator following Spears' hospitalization earlier this month. She is also in a messy custody battle with her ex-husband Kevin Federline. He currently has full custody of their two sons.

10:45 EXACTLY. Three weeks ago everybody was whining, "Where are her parents? What's wrong with them? How can they let her implode like this? Where ARE they?" And now they're with her, trying like hell to help her and everyone's up in arms about 'her rights' and how she's being held captive. You know what? I hope they let her loose to do as she pleases. She will be dead in a month and we won't have to see her nasty mug on every rag mag. I say 'Let her loose! Today!'

Britney is a selfish, ugly, worthless mother. She is spoiled and only cares for herself. Her kids aren't worth fighting for but her trips to starbucks and the rite-aid are worth fighting for. I say fuck her adn let her rot and kill herself so her kids and kfed will be set for life. I hope they call someone else mommy and see how it makes the stupid bitch feel.

Doesn't matter.
To 99% of the public it will be considered her music.

I don't think Britney will ever recover from this violation of her rights. When your own country can allow this to happen to you, and it is only because of the money, how can you live in this country and not be paranoid? None of this would be happening if she wasn't rich. She should leave the country if she ever gets away from this horrible situation. She could be controlled like this for years. The sad thing is... the boys... I can't believe what has happened to this girl. People can say all sorts of bullshit... like Kevin's crap about the kids... and take her kids away... if that and the media scrutiny is enough to make anyone so stressed out and full of anxiety. And now this... I wish she could leave the country... but Kevin will never allow her to see her children if she does. The only way she can recover from the hollywood money insanity is to leave,... but she must then abandon her children.. and leave them with a man she knows in her heart is a brutal selfish evil bastard.

I would say to her. You must leave so your boys have someone to come to when they are older. If you try to stay in the US you will never win. You must leave this insanity or you will die trying. Hire people to scrutinize Kevin's every move and win the war in the long run.

Britney will die if she stays in the US.

Uhmm...10:41...that's in the U.K. Could be different laws there or could be that Amy is actually cooperating and, thus, it's not necessary.

As for bathing, etc. from what things looked like before the last hospitalisation...no. She was in pretty horrible shape. She needs help and the courts agreed. Getting a conservatorship is not an easy thing. There has to be just cause, demonstrably. There is no way her father can take money, every cent must be accounted for in court.

Might want to look up what a conservatorship involves before flying off and yowling about impossibilities.

DRUGS ROT YOUR BRAIN

HEY 10:51 LOOK AT THE DEFINTION OF SHIPPED ,AND SOLD .

THE UNTALENT WHORE BARELY SOLD 300,000 OF THAT CRAPFEST OF A CD.

EVEN THE BRITARDS WHO BOUGHT 10 COPIES ARE BRING THEM BACK FOR A REFUND

Just recently, a mental patient recently brutally killed a psychologist. His family has tried to keep him in mental hospitals for years, but they always let him out. I'm not saying Britney is like him, but it is just an example of how people with mental problems are released from hospitals, and are running around town. Britney's lucky to have her family intervening with some success. It is extremely hard to get mental help for other people these days.

NO 99% OF THE PEOPLE DON'T CONSIDER IT HER MUSIC

THEY JUST THINK IT SUCKS

It's no wonder people hate on her all the time, look at her face. She's so full of hate for everyone, that hate is what she attracts. If she were kind and sweet and thoughtful people wouldn't hate on her like they do.

Britney is a talentless whore who has her parents to thank for all her fame and money. Her stupid teenybopper braindead fans seem for forget this.

10:52
HA HA
The reports are actually X17 paps.
It isn't true.
If you seen the video footage from that day she had that shirt on before she went to the store.
She happened to have it on over a cami top.
x17 paps tried to say the police were called there because of it when they were really called there to control the Pap stalkers.

Britney has won at Hits Music Awards 2008 for:
-International Female
-Best International album by 'Blackout'
-Best International Song by 'Gimme More'

She's worthless. Absolutely, totally, completely worthless and good for nothing. If she disappeared tomorrow the world would be a less hateful place.

What has she done that merits this stripping of her constitutional rights? One out of every 2 person you see probably has done much worse in his or her life. The judge that said she can't hire her own lawyer!!??? This is a scandal of our justice system. Since when aren't you well enough to hire your own lawyer!!! That new attorney is the only one who is fighting for her rights. Let's hope he is successful because there's no one else fighting for Britney's rights at the moment.

Give this POS her "rights", man! She'll do herself in in no time! Yahooooo!

This "case" is going straight to the trash. There are THOUSANDS of people under conservatorship for good reasons. If everyone under conservatorship filed suits crying that their "civil rights" were being violated, the federal courts would be overloaded.

The courts have already decided that Britney lacks the mental capacity to choose her own attorney.

X17 stop sleeping with Sam!

I'M SORRY 11:03 IS THAT THOSE FAKE FRENCH AWARDS WHERE THE BRITARDS VOTED ,OVER ,AND OVER.

I BET U VOTED A THOUSAND TIMES

And lawyers wonder why average people think they are blood sucking ticks!

Can't we just deport Lufti? Save a Mexican....deport Lufti

LMAO At people comparing Britney to Amy Winehouse. Amy is talented. Britney is a bubble gum artifical pop tart.
Amy doesn't have any children either, so she isn't hurting anyone else.

This is so much bullshit!!! Before Britney starts whining about her rights, she needs to think about the right of her kids and all the people who live in LA to be free from her deliberate disregard of the law, and basic principles of driving. It may be boring in LA right now without her driving around and creating chaos, but it's safe!!

This is not a case of "done much worse in his or her life," but a case of mentally incompetent. She is not a criminal, but a person who needs protection from her clouded thinking at this time. All of this is done to protect and help her. She also has some unusual circumstances, where she might need more protection than other similar people.

She's a spoiled BRAT who did too many drugs and now her brain is fried. Unfortunately she didn't have much brain power to begin with so now she's a total airhead. Let's not forget that she's arrogant, self-absorbed, selfish, belligerent, AND she acts like she's 4!

Hey Lurker I did look it up smart ass..
If Britney was Gravely disable like they say how come the hospital let her leave by herself driving a car? If she was gravely disable they should not have let her leave. You people are so funny first people want to elect a Muslim who hates white people for president now you think the basic rights of every person with a mental issue should be taken away.. I personally thing every person voting for Obama should be considered Mentally unstable and should have their rights taken away. What is this world coming to? The way it looks right now everyone has some form of mental problems!! Before long none of us will have rights and we will all be treated like slaves!

10:56 I totally agree. Britney has two choices if she wants to live a normal life and get her boys back.

1-Leave the country and fight from afar.
2-Give all her money to charity.

In fact, she should do both. Leave the country, buy a small estate in the south of france, set up a small trust, just enough to cover basic expenses and then give all her money to a charity.

You are a lovely woman Britney. You are not crazy or mentally ill. Just attacked by people who want your money or to control you because of your money.

Do the above and you will have your children back wthin months. Kevin can't give the boys a proper home without your money and he can't pay lawyers.

You will be so happy with your boys in the south of France Grow a garden and fruit trees, paint, write, teach dance classes and raise your boys free of US craziness.

I hope you get away from your crazy family as soon as possible. I really want to see you and your boys be happy.

Uh 10:56....Britney ABANDONED her childred long ago, when she wasn't in the situation she is now. My god, you are fucking stupid.

11:12...there are none so blind as those who won't see. Sorry that you aren't getting this but since you've gone into name-calling mode, I'll bid you a good evening.

Your being obtuse. That's fine so far as it goes but you're missing or misunderstanding the reality here.

Good luck with that.

If what he says is true, then she should be made to appear in court and tell her own side of the story! She has a bad habit of letting the lawyers take care of things and her not showing up in court proves this!

She has let bad people into her life, they helped her ruin her life. Now, the good people, her family, are back in her life helping her to repair what was done by the bad people. Granted, the bad people are probably more fun to hang around with, but, Britney! What will happen to you when you let these bad people back into your life and they have run you completely broke. Where will they be then? Not with you! They will go and find some other chump to take on. This is the reason, other than the fact that your parents do love and care for you, that you are being 'held hostage'. Your parents are trying, albiet a little late in your life, to teach you some responsibility for yourself and for your family. Remember, you do have two children! Stay away from the 'bad' people and work on getting your children back. If you are really so selfish to want your freedom, then you should never have gotten married and never had children. But, you did get married and have children, so you need to think of the children (since the husband is out of the picture for you). Those children can't raise themselves! Step up to the plate kiddo and GROW UP!

She WAS gravely disabled when she left the hospital. It was done against her own psychiatrist's will. Some dumb ass physician who wasn't even treating her is the one responsible. He fucked up big tme.

11:12, the hospital did not let her drive off from the hospital....a blood sucking lawyer did. Read the facts again dip shit!

Yeah, I'm sure a lot of mental patients want to leave the country. How do you think Scientology recruits its members? They tell mental patients there is no such thing as their mental disorder. Britney does have a mental issue, and she better treat it rather than run away.

France:
Britney's Blackout won best international album.
(Not voted by individuals.)

I am quite confused how Brit Brit can get a lawyer --

This must just be just fabrication, why else, would her business manager be fired for trying to set Brit up with a lawyer after her 'early release from HOSPITAL.

Goodness, this web site, is getting really bad --

When Shitney gets her car back I hope she hops a curb and runs right over Lohan, then put that mother in reverse and plows over Parasite Hilton. The only thing better would be if she hits her head hard enough to kill herself also.

Sorry m but it's being repported by more sources than just X17. She had to pay for the shirt.

Cliff at 11:15... you are confusing Britney with your Mother who you believe abandoned you. Get over it!

Hey dumb fucks. If you want to grand stand for people who have had their rights stripped away, then why don't you start helping all of the innocent people in our prison system, who were put there by botched forensic evidence. Ever heard of Joyce Gilchrest? Look her up. See how many innocent men she put away in Oklahoma, before they found out that she was running a shammed up lab!

While I was at my opthamologist's office this morning, I read a feature story in a magazine, November 2007 edition, about women who became gambling addicts. One woman was in her late 50's when she became addicted, ruined her marriage and bank account. Her brother went to court and was granted a conservatorship over the sister. She commented that even now she must have his permission to spend any of her money. The difference between her and Britney appears to be that the woman in the feature realizes she has a serious addiction and now accepts it's in her best interests not to be in control of her assets. My co-worker once had a conservatorship over her sister who is bipolar and could not function properly. I, myself, petitioned the court causing my uncle to be committed even though he didn't think he was mentally ill.

My point is it appears the law and courts recognize that sometimes adults don't have the reasoning or resolve to resist that which might be harmful and detrimental to the individual's life or to others. If a concerned party such as a family member steps in the court can allow the petitioner to oversee and take steps to protect the afflicted individual.

I just don't see what the big deal is; it's just temporary. This is something that happens often in the judicial system even if it's new to many people right now. The state court has give Britney's father and brother the right to make certain decisions for her, and the federal court will probably not interfere. Sam and his publicist must be desperate to gain immediate access to Britney for some bizarre reason. Why won't they just wait until next month's hearing to find out if it's determined that she no longer needs a conservator? Why is Sam alway's hiding out? He was the one always suggesting that Britney was so in control and there was nothing to hide, so I don't get why he's dodging the restraining order like he did the subpeona in the past. It seems like fear to me.

I definitely believe that until it's proven otherwise, Britney's parents are entitled to be the one making decisions for or about their adult child and not a so-called friend /manager.

For the most part I empathized with Brit during her whole ordeal. But I have to say that since her Dad has taken over everything, her life has been less dramatic, and I, for one, am thankful. No more flashes of the vagina, no pink wig, no British accent, and not as accessible to the media--maybe she can start to look normal again. As for this lawyer guy, if he is really her lawyer of course he would advocate of behalf of his client, that's what she pays him to do. He doesn't care what her best interests might be; he just wants her to sign that check.

11:24

You support child abuse and for that should be euthanized like the dirty dog that you are.

Look at those sales in different countries! This is what her "antics" have done after she has been away from the music scene for 4 years!

Crazy like a fox.

(Make that, a very sexy and beautiful fox.)

X-17 posts drivel like this because their MISERABLE right now that Britney Spears has some much-needed control in her life.

X-17 WANTS (needs) Britney driving around aimlessly in the middle of the night in dirty ripped clothes, wearing a ratty pink wig, and babbling incoherently in a bad British accent as she stops at random convenience stores, drug stores, and gas station bathrooms until dawn. X-17 has lost their bi-polar cash cow.

At the moment, X-17 can only get photos of a relatively well put-together Britney Spears behind the glass of an SUV.

X-17 misses their text messagees and tip-offs from Osama Lufti and their supposed "close relationship with Britney insiders."

You're not on the "inside" anymore, X-17 vultures -- get used to it.

This site seems to be the only one taken this seriously. How do we know this guy even talked to Britney

"Her "antics" have caused people to listen more to her music"

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

More of her music in comparison to WHAT? Her album (which is a great dance album, by the way) would be doing a heck of a lot better if she was out on the road promoting it, performing on Letterman and awards shows, or doing a world tour.

Her behaviour over the past six months has done nothing but drag her "Q" rating down, and has to be affecting her album and perfume sales dramatically.

What a great "manager" that Osamah Lutfi was...yeah, REAL great...

This isn't about Britney's rights. It's about Sam and x17 exploiting a person who is mentally incompetent.

x17 longs for the days when Sam was in charge, giving them exclusive stories, drugging Britney, verbally abusing her and dragging her around to photo ops in the middle of the night. Who does that sound good for? Britney? Or Sam and x17?
