After Britney Spears? breakdown circa 2008-09, she took some time away from the spotlight, and then she gradually returned some new music, some tightly managed tours, and then the Las Vegas residency. The justification at the time was that Britney likes to work, that working and dancing helps her stay healthy, that as long as everything around her is steadily managed, she likes the atmosphere and she loves performing, no matter what. I?ve always had my doubts about that, quite honestly. I think for years now, Britney prefers one-on-one interaction, and she prefers her life out of the spotlight entirely. She doesn?t want to be on a stage anymore, at least that?s my feeling.
Britney walked the red carpet at the Annual Daytime Beauty Awards in LA with her boyfriend Sam Asghari on Friday. She?s been brunette for weeks now and it?s not a great dye job she would look much better with a Jennifer Aniston-esque caramel bronde. But that?s not the point! The point is that Britney looks like a hostage in many of the photos from the event. Apparently, she was not happy to be there and she walked off the carpet very quickly:
Britney Spears abruptly exited a red carpet appearance ahead of her fireworks court battle with her father Jamie over her concervatorship. The 37-year-old pop megastar was there to support her handsome 25-year-old boyfriend Sam Asghari at The 2nd Annual Daytime Beauty Awards in Los Angeles on Friday but left within seconds.
She posed on the red carpet for less than a minute before telling her publicist I just want to go and walking straight back to their SUV. The Toxic hitmaker looked visibly uncomfortable during her brief time on the red carpet as she kept in constant communication with her publicist. Britney attempted to put on a brave face as she joined her hunky Iranian model beau who was being honored with Outstanding Achievement in Fitness.

This is what I mean for years now, even when Britney is on stage, allegedly doing the thing she loves so much, she just seems uncomfortable. I think she?s just over it and she?s been over it for years. Yes, you could make the argument that the recent drama with her father/conservatorship is to blame for her discomfort on the carpet, but doesn?t it just feel like? Britney wants to go away and be a private person now?
As for Britneys conservatorship pretty much as soon as the investigation into Jamies alleged assault of his grandson was over and no charges were brought, Jamie went to court to be reinstated as Britneys conservator. The court agreed. Whats weird is that a source told People Magazine that Britney and Jamie are still not speaking after the Sean incident? and ?Britney is still upset about it. Im still upset about it too. Im upset about ALL of this.

Britney Spears ticked off a portion of the internet last week when she posted a picture of a pair of $6,000 Louboutins that she?s never worn in the four years that she?s owned them. Maybe that partially fueled her choice to post advice that all of her followers can make use of, even if they can?t afford ridiculously expensive snakeskin heels:

I try to call out conspicuous consumption when I think it?s warranted, while still maintaining the general belief that if you earn money, you should be able to spend it without the peanut gallery chiming in. The thing about it is though, if most of these celebrity stories were just about ?Celebrity B bought an expensive bracelet,? it would be easy enough to just shrug that off and say fair enough, she earned the money. But it?s harder to maintain that when Celebrity B flaunts her new bracelet on social media and brags about how much it cost. I guess my aversion is mostly just towards the ?conspicuous? part of conspicuous consumption. Just consuming to flaunt, to brag, to try to fill your life with an endless amount of sh-t.
Britney Spears is not really that kind of conspicuous consumer. Sure, she makes 80 trips to Target every year, but that?s just further evidence of her (dare I say) middle-class taste. She shops at The Gap and Old Navy and Target. She prefers McDonald?s to a fancy restaurant. She prefers flip-flops to Jimmy Choos. So, Britney decided to post this to her Instagram:

Here are some photos from last night?s LA premiere of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. These are just the celebrity guests at the premiere I put Leo Brad and Margot in a separate post. I was surprised to see Britney Spears come out for a premiere, especially given all the sh-t that?s gone down with her this year. She came with her boyfriend Sam Asghari and just judging from the photos, she seemed present and happy. That being said, if was struggling with her issues, I?m not sure I?d want to watch a movie about the Manson Family, damn. Britney?s dress here is Nookie.
The Willis sisters came together Rumer, Scout and Tallulah. I only have an ID on Rumer?s dress it?s Ong Oaj Pairam. None of these sisters are wearing their best colors.
Austin Butler the new Elvis! came with girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens, but they posed separately. Vanessa wore Armani.
Margaret Qualley wore Prada. I guess I get the idea of this, but the execution is lacking and she looks severely underdressed.
Joe Manganiello and Sofia Vergara came out. She wore Dolce & Gabbana. While this looks fine on her, I really wish people would stop wearing D&G.
Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky were there too. I wonder if Chris was supporting fellow Aussie Margot.
Pierce Brosnan and his son Dylan Brosnan, who looks like an extra in the movie!

Here are some photos of Britney Spears over the weekend. She?s been photographed out and about frequently in the past few months, we just haven?t had access to those photos here because they were always super-exclusive. These are not super-exclusive, which tells me that photo agencies expect to be seeing more of Britney in the weeks and months to come, and more Britney sightings will mean the price of those photos will be driven down (market forces!). Britney was out shopping with her boyfriend Sam Asghari this weekend, and she seemed sort of happy to see the paparazzi. The jeans tell me that Britney might not know what year it is.
For the last ten years, all of Britney?s boyfriends were thoroughly vetted by Jamie Spears. I tend to believe the guys were always told, upfront, what was allowed and what was not allowed. No talking about Britney in the press, no drugs, no drinking. Carefully staged dates, keep her happy, some overnight visits but no cohabitation. Going to the gym together is a plus. I also tend to believe that many of her boyfriends were getting paid, although I have nothing to back that up other than a general feeling. Sam was absolutely vetted by Jamie Spears when Sam and Britney started up three years ago. And Sam is sticking with Britney:
As Britney Spears continues to focus on her health, her boyfriend Sam Asghari is providing a strong shoulder to lean on. On Saturday, the singer, 37, stepped out for a dinner date with the model, 25, at Lure Fish House in Woodland Hills. And one day before, the couple picked up burgers at In-N-Out while shopping at an outlet mall.
?There is no question that Sam is great for Britney. He has a very positive influence on her,? a Spears family source tells PEOPLE exclusively. ?He is very motivated to stay healthy and fit, and they often work out together.?
Asghari also often cooks healthy meals for the star, and ?he is a wonderful boyfriend,? adds the source. As Spears? mental health and long-held conservatorship has made its way back into the spotlight, Asghari has remained focused on the well-being of his girlfriend, who also spent time with her kids Sean, 13, and Jayden, 12, over the weekend.
?When Britney wasn?t doing well, Sam supported and encouraged Britney to seek help,? says the source. ?It?s obvious that he really cares about her. Sam is such an important part of her life.?
[From People]
I mean? maybe Sam isn?t so much looking for career opportunities as much as he?s playing a longer game if Britney?s conservatorship is loosened or stopped, Britney will finally be able to legally marry. And that means Sam could? well, you know. I know I?m being harsh, ascribing all of this to him. CB believes hes a good, decent guy who simply loves Britney and wants to help her, and he genuinely seems low-key and like he obviously sees Britney as the wounded bird she is. Its more than possible that he genuinely cares about her and wants to see her healthy. But I have been warped by the general shadiness around Britney and the people in her life, and I cant help but wonder there are many opportunistic hustlers around her at the moment.

The Britney Spears saga continues to upset me, because I keep feeling like people are focusing on the wrong things. We now know for sure that Britney is not currently doing well her medication situation is being evaluated, and her conservatorship is in shambles. The court is doing a thorough investigation of the conservatorship and whether Britney should be allowed the personal freedom she seems to want. Lynne Spears is involved too, and historically, Lynne?s influence has not been good for Britney. Kevin Federline is reportedly keeping their sons close and not allowing them too much time (or any time) with Britney right now.
Throughout the week, people have been focused on some comments that Britney?s longtime manager Larry Rudolph made to TMZ. Seemingly out of nowhere, Rudolph chimed in, saying that he doesn?t think Britney will ever work in Vegas again and will probably never work again. He later clarified, saying ?Other media sources seem to be picking up my quotes to TMZ as implying that Britney will never work again. That?s not what I said. I simply said that the Vegas residency is now officially off and that she hasn?t called me in months to talk about doing anything so I?m not sure if or when she will ever want to work again. It?s that simple. All of which? is not what the focus should be, Jesus. Britney has hundreds of millions of dollars. The current conversation isn?t ?let?s make Britney well enough so we can trot her out in Vegas and make even more money off this fragile woman.? The conversation is ?can Britney function on a daily level?? And the answer seems to be no, she can?t function.
Britney Spears is weathering a difficult time amid her conservatorship drama, post-treatment lifestyle and her father Jamie?s recovery after suffering a life-threatening colon rupture last fall.
?Britney is dealing with debilitating emotional issues that need to be treated with medications. It?s like she isn?t in control over her emotions right now,? a Spears family source tells PEOPLE. ?Everything is very up and down.?
PEOPLE previously reported that Spears? prior medication regimen had lost some efficacy over time. ?There is no doubt that she needs to be on medications to try and find a balance again, but it?s very scary when the meds are not working,? the source continues.
According to the insider, Spears experiences a range of emotions on a daily basis. ?Right now, she is very sluggish and down. Some days, she is a zombie. There is no life and definitely no passion in her. It?s very sad.?
[From People]
Yeah? I know ?sources? keep saying that Britney?s doctors are working on a new prescription drug cocktail for her, but I?m kind of wondering if we?ll eventually learn that Britney has been refusing to take her meds. That?s what it reads like to me, although I fully acknowledge I could be wrong. We know that Britney told the court that Jamie was drugging her without her consent, and I feel like this is part of that.

As we?ve been discussing, Britney Spears and her conservatorship are struggling these days. Britney has seemingly been in a difficult state for months now, as doctors have been trying out new medications. Adding to those difficulties was the fact that Jamie Spears has had significant health issues the past six months, and he wasn?t capable of maintaining his iron grip on Britney?s money, career and personal life with the same consistency as before. Britney apparently told the court that Jamie put her into the mental health facility without her consent, and that she?d like much more freedom in her life. The judge ordered a series of evaluations Lynne Spears seems to want a say in Brit?s conservatorship, and Britney asked for specific things to change in her conservatorship too. All of which means that the past decade of Britney?s conservatorship is under a microscope:
The people responsible for controlling Britney Spears? life are now in the crosshairs of court investigators as the judge in her conservatorship case has ordered a thorough investigation of all the players who take part in planning her personal life, financial affairs and medical treatment. According to documents obtained by The Blast, the judge in Britney?s conservatorship has ordered a probate court investigator to take a hard look at the singer?s case, and wants a court investigator?s report filed before Britney?s next hearing in September.
The move was quietly made days after Britney was ordered to undergo an expert evaluation to determine whether the restraints in her conservatorship should be loosened or modified. The job of a probate court investigator is to conduct extensive interviews with all the people involved in a conservatorship case, including guardians, conservators, doctors and even law enforcement officials who have had contact with the subject of the conservatorship. The investigator will also be reviewing medical and financial records, including custody agreements and even contractual obligations ? such as her Las Vegas residency.
It has long been debated whether Britney?s team, including her father Jamie Spears, were pushing Britney beyond her limits while signing her up for another round of performances in Sin City. Her manager has maintained that Britney was the one who wanted to keep working, but questions have been raised about her team?s handling of Britney?s fragile mental state while negotiating lucrative business deals.
[From The Blast]
Mike Redmond at Pajiba (formerly at The Superficial) pointed out something I had forgotten, which is that Jamie got a percentage of Britney?s Las Vegas deal(s) and he was making seven-figures from throwing Britney on stage on a regular basis. Personally, I don?t believe that the Las Vegas residency contributed to Britney?s ?fragile mental state? I agreed with Britney fans at the time that the schedule, the workouts, the dancing, it all helped her or, at the very least, she enjoyed it. The issue for me isn?t ?should Britney work,? it?s ?is she competent enough to make basic decisions about her life?? Why debate whether or not she wants to work when the real debate is whether she?s capable of driving a car, or capable of figuring out if she wants to go to Starbucks, or capable of deciding who to date without her father arranging it? And if the questions of bare-bones competency go the way I think they will, I still have to wonder WTF Jamie Spears was thinking with the entire Jason Trawick debacle. Britney and Jason were ?engaged? and Jamie was putting Jason on Britney?s co-conservator at the same time. That always disturbed the fk out of me.

Britney Spears checked into a mental health facility earlier this month. I won?t get into the giant backstory, suffice to say that I believed the more intensive 24-7 treatment was probably necessary. I didn?t buy that Britney was being held against her will, or that Jamie Spears was organizing some massive scheme to make Britney look unstable or whatever. I think Britney has legitimate mental health issues and she needs to be under the care of doctors constantly. When she?s on her meds, she knows that too. Britney slapped back on the conspiracy theories earlier this week too. And now? Britney is out of the facility. For good.
Britney Spears will have a big reunion today with her kids. Britney and Kevin Federline have joint custody of 13-year-old Sean and 12-year-old Jayden. The arrangement has been that she gets them 3 days, he gets them 3 days, she gets them 3 days, he gets them 3 days, and so on.
Britney has had less than the agreed-upon 50/50 custody for several months leading up to her stay at the mental health facility. While she was doing poorly, the kids would visit, but Kevin had the kids most of the time. So, Britney begins her 3 days with the kids today, but theres still significant concern about her mental state. Our sources say the 30-day stay at a mental health facility which ended Wednesday put her in a better place, but there are still issues with her judgment, and it goes beyond medication.
As we reported, doctors continue to struggle, trying to find the right combination of meds to stabilize Britney. The meds she had been taking lost their efficacy, and creating a new cocktail is fraught with problems. Britney had stopped taking the new meds earlier this year when they were doing more harm than good.
Were told progress is being made, but theres another big unresolved factor. The meds will stabilize her, but there are more fundamental mental health issues that go to judgment and perspective, and that requires intensive therapy something she has been and will continue to receive. Short story shes doing better, but shes not right, at least not yet. Its something her dad, Jamie, has been dealing with for nearly a dozen years as her conservator, trying to give her the space she needs to live her life, and at the same time steer her away from disaster.
[From TMZ]
Again, Kevin Federline and Britney?s custodial arrangement is basically an off-the-books, informal thing that K-Fed worked out with Jamie Spears. K-Fed has sole custody of their sons, and he can stop the informal custodial arrangement whenever he wants. I would hope that if Britney truly is struggling still, Kevin would do what is in the best interest of the boys. It?s not Kevin?s job to look out for Britney, it?s his job to take care of their sons. As for Brit, I feel sad for her and I hope her doctors aren?t just using her as a lab rat. I get that it?s about finding the right cocktail, but this whole thing is just so sad.

As we discussed last week, there?s a very involved conspiracy going around about Britney Spears. Britney checked into a mental health facility this month as part of the ongoing drama following her dad?s health issues. Jamie Spears has been in-and-out of hospitals since December, and Jamie has been Britney?s conservator for more than a decade. He managed or micromanaged every part of Britney?s life. She reportedly fell apart during his health issues. The conspiracy was that Britney was being held against her will at the facility and that all she wants is to be free of her dad and her doctors and the conservatorship in general. But TMZ has another take:
Britney Spears is at the tail end of her 30-day stay at a mental health facility and weve learned more about how she landed there in the first place. As we reported, Britney has had a rough time dealing with her dads recent illness. Jamie and Britney are super close hes been her conservator for nearly a dozen years and his health battles have taken a big toll on her.
Were told at the same time, Britneys doctors were adjusting her meds which had lost their efficacy. Britneys mental health issues were stabilized with a cocktail of medicines that were designed specifically her. Over time, those meds were increasingly ineffective and doctors needed to create a new cocktail. Were told there were problems. First, they had to wean Britney off the existing meds. This cannot be done quickly and theres a risk of suicide if its not done right its that serious.
As doctors weaned her off the meds, they created a new cocktail, but its all trial and error, and there were errors that made Britney unstable and ultimately unwilling to cooperate with doctors. She was admitted to the mental health facility and were told doctors think theyve now found the right mixture of drugs. Britney got a day pass Sunday to spend time with her boyfriend, Sam Asghari, in Bev Hills. She went back to the facility the same day.
One other thing there have been reports the conservatorship has forced meds on Britney against her will. Not true. The conservatorship Britney is under does not permit the conservator to force drugs on the person for whom the conservatorship was created. On that note, there have also been reports Jamie Spears forced Britney into the mental health facility. The type of conservatorship Britney has through the probate court does not allow a conservator to force someone into a mental health facility. Whats more, were told Jamie is adamant he did not want his daughter to go to the facility because he thought it would leak out to the media and he felt there were better ways of solving her problems. Were told Britney is the one who said she wanted to go.
[From TMZ]
Conspiracies around Britney crop up every month, and I tend to believe about half of them. In this case, I think there probably were some issues with her medication and it makes sense if her doctors were worried about her long-term usage of those medications losing some of the efficacy. But I also think it?s possible that Britney is like so many people who suffer with serious and life-altering mental illnesses: she was on prescription drugs which helped her and she thought she was ?cured? so she decided to stop taking them. Or she stopped taking her meds because she didn?t like how they felt. My guess/conspiracy is that without anyone to monitor her full-time, Britney just stopped taking her meds at some point and Jamie gave her some options, one of which was the mental health facility. Basically, this TMZ story comes from Jamie Spears, who is trying to paint this whole thing is the best light possible. We?ll never really know what has happened with Britney over the past decade, honestly.
