The Spears Rally Around Britney

The following italicized article is from www.x17online.com:

Our girl Brit sure had a tough day yesterday - especially when she bumped into a pair of pushy fans on her way to Tracey Ross! As you can see in our video, these two little girls simply would not take no for an answer, crowding Britney's car and even calling the pop princess a "bitch" for daring to cover up. Well, you'll certainly never get anywhere if that's your attitude, young ladies!

Thankfully, Britney's family was on hand to support her - not only did we catch her mother Lynn accompanying Brit into Tracey Ross, but we caught her leaving after dinner with none other than her brother Bryan a little later out in Silver Lake! Isn't it great seeing Britney's family coming to her aid like this? 'Course, that's just what the Spears family does when one of their daughters is in need!

The following italicized article is from www.popcrunch.com:

Will Britney Spears take the stage when MTV celebrates the 2008 Video Music Awards in Hollywood next month? You bet, according to a new report from across the pond.

The Britster will perform a track from her Blackout album during the September 7 ceremony at Paramount Studios, according to Britain’s Daily Express. The rumored gig will be the first since Spears humiliated herself during a bikini-clad, choreographically mess at last year’s VMAs.

Britney has already appeared alongside host Russell Brand in a series of adorable promos for the event.

“She really wants to do this, despite the jitters. She is as nervous as hell but at the same time itching to get back in front of the same audience where she screwed up so badly last time,” a Spears insider revealed to the Daily Express earlier this week.

“It is the perfect platform for her to announce to her fans and the world that the dark days are behind her and she’s back on track with her life and her career.”

“This is her big chance to make amends and let everyone see that she is becoming the Britney of old again.”

Britney Spears’ Steep Legal Bills

The following italicized article is from www.celebrity-gossip.com:

With so much headway having been made in Britney Spears and Kevin Federline’s custody case, you’d think they’d leave well enough alone. But you’d be wrong.

The “Gimme More” singer was spotted heading over to celebrity lawyer Barry Tarlow’s office with her mother Lynne yesterday (August 19) to further discuss the finer details of the arrangement for Sean Preston and Jayden James.

Another snag in the whole process has been the mounting legal fees incurred by the “Piece of Me” songstress both by her and on the behalf of her ex-husband K-Fed. All in all, the entire custody battle could cost as much as $700,000 or more.

With all of this drama looming overhead, it’s no wonder Brit decided to head out to Sunset Plaza in West Hollywood with her bodyguard for some retail therapy following the meeting with her lawyer.

Britney Spears Dishes On Healthy New Lifestyle

The following italicized article is from www.entertainmentwise.com:

Britney Spears has revealed how she regained the super-toned figure back that shot her to fame when she was seventeen.

The pop star’s revamped bod is thanks to a calorie-controlled diet and a vigorous workout regime.

"I'm the healthiest I've been all my lifemagazine. My diet has a lot to do with my getting into shape. I have no sugar. I don't eat fruit or even fruit juice because of the sugar," she tells OK!.

"I eat chicken and salmon and rice. I eat avocados. I'll have egg whites for breakfast and sometimes turkey burgers for lunch.

"I try to do just 1,200 calories a day. It may sound like it's not much, but it's actually a lot of food if you eat the right things."

The Toxic singer, 26, also hits the gym on a regular basis, doing "lots of cardio and weights" five days a week.

The star seems to have discovered her domestic streak too.

"I get mad if the maid does all the housework. If she takes it all into her own hands, well, what's for me to do? I'm a cleaning fanatic. Dusting is my favorite, and Windex-ing," she said.

"Usually the maid and I will cook together. [Sons] Sean and Jayden love my spaghetti."

Healthier And Happier Britney 'Looks At Regaining Custody Of Her Two Sons'

The following italicized article is from www.dailymail.co.uk:

She is already preparing for what is being labelled one of the biggest comebacks in pop.

But now Britney Spears is beginning an even bigger fight - to regain custody of her two young sons.

The star, who recently lost custody of sons Sean Preston, 2 and Jayden James, 1, to ex-husband Kevin Federline has made no secret of the fact that she wants to regain custody of her boys.

Britney, accompanied by mother Lynn, visited celebrity lawyer Barry Tarlow's office yesterday, fuelling speculation she is fighting to regain full custody of the toddlers.

Britney has already revealed she is preparing for a comeback in the next six to nine months and wants her young sons back by her side.

The singer has been in fine form of late and is looking better than ever after bouncing back from recent health troubles.

The former Princess of Pop has also been happier after agreeing to the settlement Federline.

As part of the agreement, Britney is allowed two visits and one overnight stay with her two sons, while her ex-husband retains primary custody.

But the mother-of-two is now hoping the custody arrangement will be altered so she can spend even more time with her boys and eventually retain full custody.

A hearing has already been set for September 16 and while cost hasn't appeared to be a major issue so far, the custody battle could leave her with more than £350,000 in legal bills.

Her battle to establish access rights to Sean Preston and Jayden James, led to two law firms billing her a combined total of £230,000, court documents have revealed.

Britney, 26, also agreed to pay Kevin's legal fees, which amounted to around £120,000.

But despite her recent troubles, Spears remains upbeat and reveals she has been busy experimenting with a new image and style in preparation for her career comeback.

'It is more urban. I'm working with producers who are just amazing.There is a fresh new energy,' she told OK magazine.

'The image factor is a little older too. The videos will be very different.'

Britney To Bare All

The following italicized article is from www.dailystar.co.uk:

Britney Spears is set to tell all about her crazy life in a shock new telly show.

The MTV documentary will lift the lid on her battle with mental illness and her chaotic family life.


But insiders fear it could turn into “car crash television”.

Britney, 26, has shocked fans with her raunchy antics, including shaving her head, battering a car with an umbrella and even having a lesbian romp in a pool with former PA Shannon Funk.

She has also spent two spells in rehab, and her parents are said to be “furious” over her TV plans. But Brit has ignored pleas from them and ex-husband Kevin Federline, 30, to snub the show.

A source said: “Britney’s dad is furious. He thinks it’s a big mistake and doesn’t want anything to do with it. “But Britney thinks it will help her custody battle for her two sons.”

Mum Lynne, 53, is also said to be trying to talk her out of appearing in the show.

It has even been claimed that Britney is using it to hit back at her mother’s book before it comes out. The singer is said to fear it will expose their rocky relationship and wants to make sure she gets her own side of the story across.

Another pal added: “This could turn out to be the biggest car crash television moment of all time.”

A spokeswoman for Britney declined to comment on the tell-all film.

MTV in London said they were not aware of the project.
