Britney Spears' Dad, Lawyer Trade Legal Barbs


Britney Spears' father and a lawyer who claims to represent her traded legal barbs Monday in an intensifying fight over whether James Spears is violating her civil rights by controlling her finances and life.

Attorney John Eardley, who told The Associated Press he was the "only person who represents Britney Spears," filed documents in federal court asserting that she is being held by her father in a situation that violates her civil rights.


A lawyer for James Spears said in papers filed Monday that Eardley cannot represent the singer because a probate judge in state court found that Britney Spears "lacks the capacity to hire an attorney, and Mr. Eardley cannot remove the conservatorship proceedings on his own behalf."

The pop star, 26, and her estate were placed under a temporary conservatorship after she was taken to UCLA Medical Center on Jan. 31, her second hospitalization in a month. Conservatorships are granted for people deemed unable to care for themselves or their affairs.

Eardley took aim at James Spears in legal documents filed Friday.

"Mr. Spears has now moved into her house and has taken control of her financial assets, as well as her physical custody, all without the benefit of a hearing where Ms. Spears would be present," he said.

Eardley said that Spears has never been on good terms with her father and said he was "concerned for the emotional and physical safety of Britney under these circumstances."

In his motion, Eardley said Spears had "been in a form of private confinement for nearly a month. Certainly, at this point, it is likely that circumstances have changed and it is time that the conservatee be brought into court for a hearing, where the court can evaluate her in person and hear testimony directly from her."

The document suggests she be allowed to retain her own medical professionals to evaluate her condition.

"There are financial issues which involve the possible misappropriation of assets," Eardley said but did not elaborate.

Meanwhile, attorney Jeffrey Wexler, representing James Spears, filed a response Monday complaining that the effort to move the case to federal court is without legal basis and is draining James Spears financially.

Wexler said that the conservator has already incurred more than $42,898 in legal fees to fight the effort launched by Eardley. Wexler argued the law being cited by Eardley applies only to cases of racial discrimination.

James Spears has asked to send the matter back to state court and to award him attorneys' fees.

In the phone interview Eardley said he had filed additional documents under seal Monday and expected a hearing to be set soon.

Asked when he last consulted with Britney Spears, Eardley said, "I talked to her a few days ago and someone wrestled the phone away from her. I've not talked to her since then."

Britney banned from all pre-Oscar parties

Troubled pop singer Britney Spears has apparently been banned from all pre-Oscar parties. According to mirror.co.uk, most of the silencers have not bothered to invite Spears for any of the parties.


"While Britney is certainly a name in Hollywood - it's for all the wrong reasons. She's a car crash waiting to happen and organisers don't want to take the risk of her showing up and creating a scene," an informed source said.

"Her presence at any party would instantly generate lots of publicity but while it's tempting to send out an invite, it's a hassle that they don't really want," the source added.

Britney Visit her kids finally

Britney Spears visited her sons for three hours on Saturday and then went out to dinner with her father, Jamie, according to People.com.


After the lawyers representing Spears and her ex-husband Kevin Federline reached an agreement on visitation rights Friday, the singer saw her sons Preston, 2, and Jayden, 1, for the first time since January 3, the night she was hospitalized after refusing to turn the boys over to Federline. She was hospitalized again at the end of the month.

On Saturday morning, Federline put the boys into his truck and they were driven by his bodyguard to Spears' home. Sources told People that Jamie and Britney's psychiatrist were also present during the visit; another source said, "The real hero was Jamie. He has taken charge, and she has visitation again."

After the three-hour visit, Britney Spears went out to dinner with her father at Mastro's Steakhouse in Beverly Hills, California, the site reported. Shortly before 8 p.m., they were joined by an assistant, a family friend and two bodyguards.

Saturday's visit was the first time Britney had seen her sons since a court commissioner gave Federline sole physical and legal custody of their two sons and suspended the pop star's visitation rights on January 4. She made two unsuccessful attempts to regain visitation rights in recent weeks.

Spears and her estate were placed under a temporary conservatorship after she was hospitalized on January 31.

The singer's tumultuous life has stabilized somewhat in recent weeks, since her parents took greater control over her affairs. They said last month that they believed her life to be at risk.

Heidy Klum wants to help Britney Spears

The 34-year-old model even says that she would open her home to Spears as the pop singer struggles to put her life back together.


"She can call me and come live in our house with us for a couple of months," said Klum, a mother of three who is married to singer Seal and lives in Beverly Hills, California. "I would help set her straight."

"I am sorry when a young person gets thrown so off track," Klum said, according to a transcript of an interview that will be aired Monday night by German broadcaster ARD on its "Beckmann" program. "She has of course lived an extremely wild life."

After more than a year of bizarre behavior and two stints in a psychiatric hospital this year, Spears was placed under a conservatorship by the Los Angeles County Superior Court commissioner at the beginning of February. Conservatorships are established when a court determines someone cannot take care of themselves or their affairs.

To hear Klum, the host of Bravo's "Project Runway," describe it, her own life seems like a fairy tale.

"I have never been as happy as I am today," Klum said. "I have found the man of my life and we have three great kids. They are all so different and fantastic that it really can't get better than this."

Britney Spears need help from Arnold Schwarzenegger


Britney Spears has turned to California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in a bid to get herself an attorney, it’s claimed.

A U.S. website is reporting that her self-proclaimed manager, Sam Lutfi who incidentally has a restraining order out against him, preventing him from coming anywhere near the singer - contacted Arnie’s former publicist to seek help with her legal woes.

A source “with firsthand knowledge of the conversation” tells Gatecrasher: "Britney says her civil rights have been violated and she wants to talk to Arnold about it."

According to the insider, "She wants the governor to look into why she can't get an attorney. Sam was chewing on his dinner while he was saying all this into the phone."

Apparently Lutfi refused to give out Brit’s number but “wanted Schwarzenegger to call him, and he said he'd hand Britney the phone."

This week Brit’s legal team applied for the second time to withdraw as her counsel in her ongoing custody battle with ex-husband, Kevin Federline.

The troubled singer is said to view her inability to keep a lawyer for more than five minutes as a "civil rights" issue and not "an absolute nightmare to deal with" issue.

Sam Lutfi being investigated by LAPD


Sam Lutfi, Britney Spears' former confidante and self proclaimed manager better continue laying low. Not only is he currently being hunted down by the people who wish to serve him with a restraining order, but he is now also being investigated by police for allegedly drugging the pop star.

TMZ is reporting that Lutfi is being investigated by the Major Crimes Division of the LAPD. Brit's conservators have complained that Sam drugged her as a way of keeping her under his control.


Lutfi, of course, could not be reached for comment, however his spokesperson Michael Sands says that he is aware of the investigation.

Britney's mom, Lynn Spears, gave a signed declaration to the court earlier this month, revealing that the night she arrived at Britney's house for an intervention, Sam openly detailed to her his method of keeping Britney drugged up.

"Sam told Jackie and me that he grinds up Britney's pills, which were on the counter and included Risperdol and Seroquel. He told us that he puts them in her food and that was the reason she had been quiet for the last three days. He told us that the doctor who is treating her is trying to get her into a sleep induced coma so that they could then give her drugs to 'heal her brain.'"

Of the investigation, a court insider confirms to OK!--"Yes. He was practicing medicine without a license when he was grinding up a cocktail of prescription pills and putting it in her food. There's no doubt about that being a felony among other charges."

Brit father fire britney spears bussiness manager

Britney Spears' father sought to fire her business manager because he circumvented court orders by providing the pop star with a car after she was released from a psychiatric ward, according to court documents released Monday.


Manager Howard Grossman also violated court orders by arranging meetings for her when she was released from the hospital Wednesday against her parents' wishes, said papers filed by attorneys for James Spears, her temporary conservator.

The 26-year-old pop star was seen cruising around Los Angeles later that day in a Mercedes-Benz with a swarm of paparazzi on her tail.

"The temporary co-conservators have lost all confidence in their ability to work with Mr. Grossman," because of his conduct, attorneys for James Spears wrote in papers seeking to fire the manager. The papers were sealed until after Grossman was served.

Court Commissioner Reva Goetz gave Spears' temporary conservators the right to fire Grossman after a closed-door hearing Thursday in which they aired the allegations in the documents.

Grossman would not immediately comment on the documents when reached by The Associated Press. He has refused to say whether he was fired.

Jeryll Cohen, attorney for James Spears, said Grossman had been told that two of the troubled star's cars were to be delivered from a dealership to the singer's father, who was named temporary conservator of his daughter and her estate after she was deemed unfit to care for herself and manage her finances.

Grossman said he had one of the Mercedeses delivered to the hotel because his client requested it.

"Spears asked him to, and he wanted to comply with her request because he wanted to 'build her confidence in him,'" according to Cohen's declaration.

The delivery of the car violated a court order giving James Spears and attorney Andrew Wallet, the co-conservator of her estate, control of the singer's assets.

Grossman also arranged for Spears to meet with attorney Adam Streisand at the Beverly Hills Hotel in violation of court orders preventing Spears from meeting with any lawyer without her father's permission, according to the documents unsealed Monday.

Streisand unsuccessfully sought to represent Spears in court Feb. 4 when he argued that she told him by phone that she wanted her father removed as conservator. Goetz found that Spears lacked the capacity to hire her own lawyer.

Grossman said in an e-mail contained in the court records that some of the messages from Cohen were received after Britney Spears contacted him.

He said he rejected Spears' request to give her a credit card. Under the terms of the conservatorship, he was not permitted to give Spears any money or credit cards.

The papers also claim Grossman refused to turn over e-mails from Sam Lutfi, Spears' friend and sometime manager. Grossman said Lutfi demanded money in the e-mails.

Cohen said in a written declaration that Grossman did not comply with Lutfi's demands, but that he "has since refused to provide copies of any such e-mails" to James Spears and his attorneys.

A restraining order was issued preventing Lutfi from contacting Spears. Goetz also ordered Spears not to have contact with Lutfi.

A hearing on the temporary conservatorship is scheduled for Thursday — the day it is set to expire.

Jeffrey Wexler, another attorney for James Spears, declined to comment.

'Spamalot' Musical Changes Britney Lyric



Britney Spears is out, Posh Spice is in — as a lyric for the Lady in the Lake in the Broadway musical "Monty Python's Spamalot." Asked why the lyric was changed in the song "Diva's Lament," "Spamalot" author Eric Idle said Tuesday in an e-mail:

"Because we don't laugh at sad people. Mike Nichols (the show's director) requested it and he's right. We changed the lyrics in London, on tour, on Broadway and in Las Vegas. We think that it's now too sad. Britney Spears is being tortured to death and we don't want to be on that side."

The changes went into the various companies last week.

What the Lady in the Lake (currently played on Broadway by Hannah Waddingham) once sang:

"I am sick of my career
Always stuck in second gear
Up to here with frustration and with fears

I've no Grammy no rewards
I've no Tony Awards
I'm constantly replaced by Britney Spears

Britney Spears!"

It's been replaced by:

"My love life is a mess
I've got constant PMS
My career is about as hot as ice

They hate me there backstage
They say I'm too old for my age
They're trying to replace me with Posh Spice

With Posh Spice!!"

Lutfi Answers Lynne Spears' Allegations

Sam Lutfi refutes Lynne Spears' testimony. The manager and pal of Britney Spears speaks to E! News denying the allegations Lynne has signed on her court declaration.


"I'm not worried about what Lynne is saying. It's not true," Lutfi says.

And contrary to what he has said before, Lutfi doesn't seem to bear any grudge against the Spears matriarch for making him look the bad guy. "They're family and their concerns are understandable, but these allegations are not true."

Even before Lynne's court allegations that he drugged Britney has been made public, Lutfi had admitted to Us Weekly that he gave Britney medications, but it was for her own good.

"I said these pills are working wonders - they are miracle pills," he said; although he did not name the pills he gave. This had confirmed one of Lynne's allegations that he gave her daughter "a handful of pills" on the eve of January 30 before just parents arrived.

"In the depressive episodes, it's all crying. But in the manic episode, there's very little crying or sympathy or compassion. She becomes another person. She becomes somebody that just doesn't care about anybody or anything," he explained.

The 33-year-old also revealed Britney's love for him when the ambulance arrived at the singer's home on January 31. They were apparently passing notes. "She wrote me a note and put a big heart on it and it said, 'I love you, Sam. Are there people coming? Circle yes or no.' Oh my God, it was funny, just the cutest little thing. I circled yes and I gave it back to her, and she's like, 'Oh, lord, here we go again.'"

Lutfi, who spoke to E! through phone call, refused to divulge his location. This may be because of the restraining order Britney's parents ordered against him. (source)

The Declaration Of Lynne Spears…

A week after the Britney fighting drama with Sam lutfi , i resource the story and from pagesix.com confirmed that Lynne Spears is speaking out for the first time about the night of her failed intervention with Britney.


She details a scary evening on Monday, January 28, when she went to Britney's Beverly Hills mansion only to discover the depth of Sam Lutfi's control over the pop star and her sick daughter's helplessness.

Lynne says Britney "became very agitated and could not stop moving. She cleaned the house. She changed her clothes many times. She also changed her three dogs' clothes many times. Britney spoke to me in a tone and with the level of understanding of a very young girl. Britney then picked up a bottle of pills and read part of the label and asked us, 'What does insomnia mean?' Sam told her that the pills will help her stay awake."

Lynne, who was accompanied by a friend, Jackie, described seeing firsthand how the Svengali-like Sam kept Britney under lockdown by disabling her cars, confiscating her phones and using a small army of paparazzi to keep a tight leash on the unstable 26-year-old.

Britney then said again at some point during the night, 'When do I get to see my babies?' Sam answered, 'Wednesday.' Britney then said, 'What do I have to do to see them?' Sam responded, 'Take the pills I tell you to take.' Britney said, 'I don't like these pills and I don't like the psychiatrist. Can't I see another psychiatrist so I can see my babies?' Sam responded, 'If I told you to take 10 pills a day, you should do what I tell you to see your babies.' Jackie then said, 'Britney, your parents can help you find a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist needs to get to know you to give you the right medicine.' Sam then raised his voice and said, 'Why don't you get back with Kevin Federline.'"

After 4 a.m. that night, Lynne later recalls, "Britney said, 'I want my Daddy up here. I want to talk to my Daddy.' I reached Jamie on the phone and gave the phone to Britney. I heard her tell him that she wanted to see him. He said, 'Right now, baby?' and she said, 'No.' He said, '10:00 in the morning?' And she said, 'No, noon.' "

When Jamie came the next morning, Lynne says he "gave Britney a big hug and said to her, 'Baby, you're okay?' Britney said, 'I'm fine,' then burst into tears."

As the night unfolded, Lynne learned how Sam used pills to keep Britney under his control.

"Sam told Jackie and me that he grinds up Britney's pills, which were on the counter and included Risperdol and Seroquel. He told us that he puts them in her food and that that was the reason she had been quiet for the last three days (she had been sleeping). He told us that the doctor who is treating her now is trying to get her into a sleep-induced coma so that they could then give her drugs to heal her brain."

At one point in the evening, Sam tried to ply Lynne and Britney with tequila and wine. Britney first ask for "a pretty glass" and then she "refused to drink her wine and asked to drink mine," Lynne recalls.

Afterwards, Lynne saw that Sam was in the kitchen "crushing something on the counter." Later, after midnight, when they accompanied an agitated Britney to buy lipstick, Lynne says Sam "told me that he gave Britney something (when they were upstairs) to make her more light-hearted, happy, and fun."

In addition to describing seeing her 26-year-old daughter in a state of confusion and desperation, Lynne spoke of the ins-and-outs of how Sam held court in her daughter's house, with paparazzi who "treated him like a general," she said.

Sam doled out Britney's cars to the photographers who monitored her whereabouts when she was not in Sam's immediate sight. "From the conversation between Sam and the paparazzi I determined that Sam had given Felipe [another paparazzi] one of Britney's cars to get her out of the house when he heard that Jamie and I were on our way to see Britney. I also understood from the conversation that Sam disabled all of Britney's cars [she has several at her residence]."

Lynne then recalls noticing "a large car battery" in the middle of the kitchen table, which Sam was using to charge his phone. "He told us that he had disposed of all of the phone charges and had made the house phones unworkable."

Here the declaration of the mother
I , Lynne Spears, declare:

1. I am the mother of Britney Spears (“Britney”)., who is the subject of this action. I have personal knowledge of each of the facts set forth in this Declaration, and can testify completely thereto, except as this matters stated on information and belief, and as to such matters I believe them to be true.

2. This past Monday night (Jan. 28), Britney’s father, Jamie, and I (in separate cars) went to Britney’s house in Beverly Hills because we had heard news reports that Britney had just been in a big fight with Sam Lufti aka Sam Lufti (“sam”), the man who has inserted himself into my daughter’s life, home and finances, and that she was crying. We were very concerned about her safety. We arrived at the Summit Community gatehouse in BHPO at approximately 10 p.m. I was with my friend Jackie.

3. The guards at the gatehouse stopped us there for awhile. Jackie, Jamie and I finally proceeded to Britney’s house and entered it. We were able to enter the house because it was not locked. Britney does not lock her doors and currently there are no security guards around her residence. Britney was not home. We found Sam, and sam said as we walked in the door that Britney only wanted me to come to the house, and that she was afraid to see her dad.


4. Two or three paparazzi came into the house and entered the kitchen. They greeted Sam. The paparazzi then reported to Sam where Britney currently was. From the conversation between Sam and the paparazzi I determined that sam had given Felipe (another paparazzi) one of Britney’s cars to get her out of the house when he heard that Jamie and I were on our way to see Britney. I also understood from the conversation that Sam disabled all of Britney's cars. (she has several at her residence.)5. Sam had told Britney that Jamie and I were coming to the house to do an intervention, and that Britney panicked and took off with Felipe. Another man named Chad Hardcastle was in the house.

6. I also heard the evening that Britney’s and Sam’s fight that evening, Sam had told Britney that she was an unfit mother, a piece of trash and a whore, that she cares more about Adnan, her current boyfriend, than she cares about her kids, and that she does not deserve her kids.

7. The paparazzi reported to Sam and addressed him with great respect. They treated him like a general. He instructed them to get her back to the house. They later told Sam that Britney was on her way back.

8. Britney then came back to the house with Adnan, who is also a paparazzi. Sam then told Jackie that we needed to do whatever he tells us. I objected. He then told me, “I’m the one who spends 24/7 with your daughter. I sleep in cars outside her house so she can’t leave.” Sam then said, “You people throw everyone under the bus, if you don’t listen to me I’m going to make your name sh** in the papers.”

9. As I looked around the kitchen, I noticed that in the middle of the kitchen table there was a large car battery. At some point during the evening I learned that the car battery was there so Sam could charge his cell phone. Although Britney has several cell phones, he told us that he had disposed of all of the phone chargers and had made the house phones unworkable.

10. Sam told Jackie and me to tell Adnan to leave Britney alone and to get the F*** out of the house. Jackie refused. Sam then said to tell Britney that Adnan is gay. Adnan stayed at the house a little longer. Sam quietly said something to Adnan and Adnan promptly left the house.

11. Britney came into the room looking for Adnan. Sam told her that Adnan was in the bathroom. Britney then asked me, “Is Adnan gay?” While Britney was out of earshot, Sam told Jackie and me that we should pretend that Adnan was in the bathroom so Britney wouldn’t leave.

12. Britney then became very agitated and could not stop moving. She cleaned the house. She changed her clothes many times. She also changed her three dogs’ clothes many times. Britney spoke to me in a tone and with the level of understanding of a very young girl. Britney then picked up a bottle of pill sand read part of the label and asked us, “What does insomnia mean?” Sam told her that the pills will help her stay awake.

13. Sam told Jackie and me that he grinds up Britney’s pills, which were on the counter and included Risperdol and Seroquel. He told us that he puts them in her food that that was the reason she had been quiet for the last three days (she had been sleeping.) He told us that the doctor who is treating her now is trying to get her into a sleep-induced coma so that they could then give her drugs to heal her brain.

14. Sam then encouraged us to sit down on a sofa and do “tequila shots.” Jackie and I said we did not want to. Britney seemed to follow our lead. Sam then got some wine out and said, “Let’s all do toasts with wine.” Britney said that she didn’t want to, she wanted a pretty glass. Sam found a glass with a stem and poured wine for Britney when we were not looking. Britney refused to drink her wine and asked to drink mine.

15. Shortly afterward, Sam went back into the kitchen and was standing behind a raised bar so that we could not see what his hands were doing on the counter. Sam then said to Britney, “let’s go upstairs,” and Britney followed him. Britney had calmed down by the time she went upstairs.

16. A little while later, Britney came downstairs. She seemed agitated again and told us that she wanted to go to Rite Aid for lipsticks. It was now past midnight. Jackie and I said we would take her. Sam told us that he wanted to follow us in his car. We told him that he shouldn’t because the paparazzi were in front of the neighbor’s house and would harass us. As were were about to drive off, Sam jumped into the bask seat of the car. The paparazzi followed. Sam and I were sitting in the back seat, with Chad as well. He told me that he gave Britney something (when they were upstairs) to make her more light-hearted, happy, and fun. We entered Rite Aid and Britney chose her lipstick. The manager said it is dangerous out there, which it was. When Britney gave the cashier her credit card, the cahsier told her it was not working. I paid for the lipstick and the manager told us we could leave through the side door so no one could see us. Sam insisted we leave through the front door and he put his arms around Britney and me for the paparazzi to take photos. I disengaged as quickly as I could.

17. Sam told me,” You’d better learn that I control everything. I control Howard Grossman, Britney’s business manger. I control her attorney's and the security guards at the gate. They don’t listen to Britney, they listen to me. That’s why Jamie was gone tonight.”

18. At another point in the evening, Sam bragged to me that he is the one who receives Britney's checks and that one of them was for me. I told Sam that I hadn't gotten any checks from Britney. Sam then told me that they are in his car. He told me that if he weren't in the house to give Britney her medicine, she would kill herself. Then he said to me "If you try to get rid of me, she'll be dead and I'll piss on her grave."

19. He then proclaimed that he has been in the family for a year and that he had one nothing but good for Britney. At this point, it was two or three in the morning. Britney was meandering around the house. She would let me hug her, but she was out of it.

20. At one point during the night, Sam was screaming at me and Britney said to me, “Sam treats me like that.” Then she picked up the house phone and said, “Look at the phone, it doesn’t work.” Sam then blamed the dead phone on Britney. Jackie spoke up and said to Sam, “You said you cut down the phone wire.”

21. Britney then said again at some point during the night, “When do I get to see my babies?” Sam answered, “Wednesday. “ Britney then said, “What do I have to do to see them?” Sam responded, “Take the pills I tell you to take.” Britney said, “I don’t like the pills and I don’t like the psychiatrist. Can’t I see another psychiatrist so I can see my babies?” Sam responded, “If I told you to take 10 pills a day, you should do what I tell you to see your babies.” Jackie then said, “Britney, your parents can help you find a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist needs to get to know you to give you the right medicine.” Sam then raised his voice and said, “Why don’t you get back with Kevin.”

22. Britney then said, “I’ll do anything to get them back.”

23. At some point during the evening, Sam said that Britney decided that he should be her manager.

24. Adnan has called me and told me he’s worried about Britney. He told me that Sam hides the phones and tells her he has lost them. He also hides her dog, London. She looks for him all over the house crying and then Sam brings the dog from the hiding place and acts like her savior.

25. While we were at Rite Aid, Britney went in and out of her British accent.

26. At 4 a.m., I was exhausted and wanted to leave. Sam blocked my car so I could not leave. I threatened to call Jamie on the phone.

27. Britney said, “I want my Daddy up here. I want to talk to my Daddy.” I reached Jamie on the phone and gave the phone to Britney. I heard her tell him that she wanted to see him. He said, “right now baby?” and she said, “no.” He said, “10:00 in the morning?” and she said, “no, noon.”

28. I spent the rest of the night at Britney’s house and for the first time in a very long time, when I lay down to sleep, I felt very agitated. I could not fall asleep at all. I felt like I had had coffee. Jackie, who had gone home earlier, later told me that she also could not sleep at all, and felt like she had had coffee.

29. Jamie came to pick me up the next morning. Jamie gave Britney a big hug and said to her, “baby, you’re OK?” Britney said, “I’m fine,” then burst into tears.

30. To my knowledge, Britney never went to sleep that night and was very agitated for most of the night.

31. Sam and Chad, however, slept in the “smoking room,” a small room downstairs on the first floor of the house.

32. Later the next day, on January 29, Jackie showed me a text message she had received from Sam: “Thanks for telling Jamie all your bullsh*t. He just hit me. Now you guys did your deed. Much accomplished. Good job.

33. I did not see Britney again until I arrived at her house on Wednesday night after Sam called me and told me to come to the house. When we arrived, Britney seemed subdued. The police arrived and took her to the Neuro Psychiatric Institute at UCLA (“NPI”). While at NPI, I l earned that Britney informed her doctor, Lee Sadja, MD, that she had also taken Aderol.

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the foregoing is true and correct. Executed on January 31, 2008 at Los Angeles, California.

You are my daddy girl brit

According to pagesix.com, Britney Spears is having a hard time in the hospital, and she is always calling her dad. Jamie Spears explained how Britney would call her every 20 minutes on Superbowl last Sunday.


Here the reports from pagesix

“Britney first called me at approximately 1:30 p.m. She said, ‘Daddy, what are you doing?’ I told her I was cooking. ‘What are you cooking, Daddy, why are you not here with me?’ I told her, ‘Baby, Daddy’s got to work.’”

In another call, Jamie said Brit begged him to get her out of the hospital. “She said, ‘How long are you going to be, Daddy?’ I told her I didn’t know. She said, ‘Hurry up and get here.’ I asked her why. She said, ‘Because you got to get me out of here.’ I told her I could not get her out of there. She said, ‘I want you to.’”

Unable to do anything else, Jamie asked his daughter if he could bring her anything. “Yes, bring me some ice ice cream,” she told him. “I asked her what flavor. She said, ‘Vanilla.’”

When he finally got to his daughter’s bedside, Jamie told the court, “She turned her head away from me. I said to her, ‘I love you,’ Britney said, ‘No you don’t.’”

Agitated by her situation, Britney told Jamie that either he or the hospital were “lying” to her about keeping her there. A nurse was brought in to explain, “Ms. Spears, your daddy did not put you in here. Your daddy is not keeping you here. The hospital is.”

In response, Britney turned to Jamie and said, “Come on, Daddy. Let’s get out of here. Take my hand, and let’s walk out of here together.”


I hope Britney gets better soon. Luv u brit ...

Britney Spears hospitalised again


Troubled pop star Britney Spears was in a Los Angeles hospital on psychiatric hold for the second time in a month on Thursday after being taken from her home by ambulance under a police escort.

Spears, 26, whose life has grown increasingly erratic in the past 12 months, is being held for a three-day mental evaluation on the orders of her psychiatrist, her self-styled manager, Sam Lutfi, told celebrity news media.

"She went willingly. It was like something in her heart was telling her she should go. She knew something was wrong," Lutfi told People magazine.

News video showed more than a dozen police motorcycles and squad cars leaving Spears' Los Angeles home shortly after midnight on Thursday and taking her to the UCLA Medical Center.

The hospital declined to confirm Spears was a patient, citing confidentiality.

Road blocks were set up in a vain bid to deter paparazzi who have trailed the former pop phenomenon round the clock as her life has spun out of control.

Spears' estranged mother, Lynne, and her father, Jamie, were pictured leaving the hospital on Thursday along with Lutfi. Asked if her daughter was OK, Lynne Spears told a throng of reporters, "Yes."

Celebrity web site TMZ.com said the pop star's psychiatrist felt Spears was a danger to herself because of reckless driving and a recent deterioration in her behaviour.

BIPOLAR DISORDER?

Friends and family have said they believe the former teen pop phenomenon is suffering from bipolar disorder -- which is characterized by abrupt mood swings -- or other psychiatric problems.

In recent days, the Louisiana native has assumed a British accent and has been photographed sitting in the street in tears clutching her dog, and arguing loudly with friends.

An unnamed source told Us Weekly that Spears had not slept since Saturday and that the "intervention" by her family and psychiatrist had been planned for several days.

Spears' personal life went downhill after she filed for divorce from Kevin Federline in November 2006. She was seen out partying without wearing panties. She shaved her head, attacked paparazzi and spent a month in rehab.

Spears lost custody and visiting rights with her two young sons and was ordered last year to undergo random drug and alcohol tests by the court handling her bitter custody dispute with Federline.

She was hospitalised on January 3 after apparently locking herself in a bathroom in hysterics and refusing to hand back her two sons to representatives of Federline. Spears discharged herself after two days.

The National Alliance on Mental Illness on Thursday pleaded for Spears' privacy during her treatment.

Executive director Michael Fitzpatrick condemned the "media circus and reckless speculation" surrounding the health of the singer. He also criticized the professional ethics of mental health experts who are not directly involved in her diagnosis or treatment but speak to the media about her case.
