Papin' Ain't Easy, But Being Britney Is Harder!

Whoa, dude! What about the idea of personal space???

We love you, Brit, so here's my advice to you -- try Barney's! Use the valet and run inside or park underground and take the elevator up; then no one can come close AND the clothes are nicer!


More pix of Brit's outing to Fred Segal, coming soon!

Bald Britney -- Seems Like Just Yesterday

The following italicized article is taken from www.tmz.com:

Has it been a year already? Time flies in the life of an out-of-control popwreck -- and last year at this time, the biggest buzz involved hairless (on her head) Britney.

Shaved Spears had just left a Caribbean rehab facility after a measly 24 hours inside -- revealing to the world that her public angst could be matched by no other celeb.

What a year it's been, y'all.

What a year! And it's also weird to realise that now, after a year, it seems that Britney is finally slowing down!

Britney's Shaved Head: One Year Later

The following italicized article is taken from www.people.com:

It's been a bumpy 12 months for Britney Spears, for whom Saturday marks the one-year anniversary of her famously shaving her head.

After the hair-raising incident, the 26-year-old pop star kept her head covered with hats and wigs, including a pink bob that soon became an emblem of her odd behavior.

And, there was more. She became engaged in a very public battle with ex-husband Kevin Federline, lost custody of her two young children, delivered a lackluster performance at the MTV Video Music Awards and suffered a meltdown that resulted in being hospitalized in a psychiatric ward.

But Spears, who has also released a hit song, "Gimme More," and received a barrage of advice about how to turn her life around, also has been toning down the antics since her one-week hospital stay.

Friday Shop-Seeing Spree

Friday she spent some quiet time in the afternoon shopping in West Hollywood, at the boutique of Filipino fashion designer Monique Lhuillier and the Fred Segal and the Betsey Johnson stores. At all of three places she appeared to do more browsing than purchasing.

On the domestic front, her family is caring for the pop star, who sources say has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Father Jamie Spears has been granted a co-conservatorship over his daughter's affairs, while brother Bryan is acting a co-trustee of his sister's revocable trust.

(A Los Angeles County Superior Court commissioner placed Spears under a conservatorship at the beginning of this month. Such conservatorships are established when a court determines an individual cannot take care of herself or her affairs.)

Mother Lynne Spears, who departed Los Angeles earlier this week, had been part of the attempted healing process, spending rare quality time with her daughter – cooking for and shopping with her.

All the while, the famous pink wig remains safely tucked away.

The New & Improved Britney Spears

Look at her!!!

Doesn't she appear calmer????

We are loving the new Brit Brit, and we're especially loving her new security detail and assistant.

Spears has been relatively calm lately, and that's a good thing. Her new meds must be kickin' in!

Britney and posse did a little shopping in LA on Friday at the Fred Seagal store. Thankfully the late nights and aimless driving around town seem to be done.

The bad influences are gone from her life!

And, speaking of bad influences, the Los Angeles Police Department has confirmed that they are looking into allegations that Brit's former "manager" Osama Lutfi drugged her.

Homie better stay in hiding. Shit's about to go down for him!

Sources: Sam Helping Britney Fight Back

The following italicized article is taken from www.eonline.com:

Sam Lutfi may be trying to make a federal case out of Britney Spears' travails, but it doesn't appear he's been successful just yet.

A Los Angeles Superior Court spokesperson told E! News Friday that all of the orders pertaining to Jamie Spears' conservatorship over his daughter's affairs are still being handled in the local court, contrary to reports that the case has been transferred to federal jurisdiction.

And, contrary to the efforts of Britney's dearest-if-not-so-nearest to take it there.

Sources close to the situation confirm that Lutfi, who after two weeks has yet to be served with the restraining order Britney's family obtained against him Feb. 1, is behind the filing this week of a strongly worded petition seeking to move the troubled singer's custody and conservatorship cases from L.A. court to federal court.

"Sam is at war with Jamie. This is his first strike," a Spears insider said Friday, explaining that Lutfi feels Britney's rights were violated because court-appointed attorneys did not investigate the claims her family was making about her condition.

Lutfi's new publicist, Michael Sands, who insists that the case has been transferred, filed the petition this week on behalf of New York attorney Jon Eardley, who is listed in the paperwork as Britney's counsel.

Sam the Target of New Criminal Investigation!

The following italicized article is taken from www.ok-magazine.com:

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."
