Britney Spears and Kevin Federline still have one huge asset to settle -- according to the Louisiana State Dept. of Revenue, the government owes the ex-couple over $50,000 from when they were still married.
The money is from an unclaimed interest fund earned from either a joint property the ex-couple sold back in Louisiana, or some shared income tax filed several years ago. The government's just waiting for Brit and K-Fed to step forward and say it's theirs.
But here's the point -- because the refund is jointly owned, K-Fed and Brit Brit will have to figure out how to divide up their surprise loot.
Our dear Britney Spears ventured out into the wet streets of SoCal yesterday in Calabasas, CA to take care of a few errands on her To Do list. Firstly, Ms. Britney made her way to Starbucks to pick up one of her fave caffeinated drinks and then she made her way to the nail salon to get herself a manicure:We know from her song Lace & Leather that Brit Brit is fond of “French fingertips, red lips … [and] cotton candy kiss[es]“ so I’m not surprised to see her French tipped fingernails. While her ex-hubby is trying to peddle a story about depression (which I do not believe at all), Britney is bizzy primping and pampering herself … like she should. She looks great. I love me some Britney!!

Britney Spears goes out to see a movie with BF Jason Trawick on Monday (January 25).
The 28-year-old pop princess perked up after she saw a little girl smiling at her and gave her a big hug as they left the theater.
Brit, who asked photogs not to capture the moment on film, made the little girl’s day - she ran back to her mother saying, “Britney Spears just hugged me!” So cute!!
In other Brit news, she was granted permission by a judge to auction off one of her 2008 VMAs dresses to support Haiti relief!

She's no George Clooney, but Britney Spears is doing her part for the Haitian relief effort -- she's donating a dress she wore at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards for auction.
Britney was in court today for a conservatorship hearing, but has since left the courthouse because of a commitment with her kids.
Brit's lawyer, Geraldine Wyle, asked the commissioner for authority to dispose of certain property -- items that are no longer useful to her or her estate. Wyle was not specific, though we're thinking Adnan is one of the items.
We're told the commissioner also wants to get a first hand look-see of how Britney was doing. No reviews so far.

Britney Spears may not be capable of signing record deals and buying homes, but when it comes to a simple shoe purchase, she's a regular shopping ninja.
We've learned Britney is using her bodyguard's credit card to score purchases that don't fit into her conservatorship budget.
Britney hit up the Steve Madden store in the Valley over the weekend and bought 2 pairs of boots. We're told Brit paid for the new kicks with a credit card, but the card had the name of one of her bodyguards on it.
The store employees gave Britney a hard time over the card ... because she signed her own name on the dotted line. We're told Britney convinced the clerk the person named on the card is an employee of her company and she was entitled to use it.
Here's the thing: Under the terms of the conservatorship Britney has a credit card with a limit of $1,500 a week.

The commissioner in the Britney Spears conservatorship case wants a command courtroom performance from Ms. Spears, and the commish is frustrated that didn't happen today.
Commissioner Reva Goetz just confirmed what TMZ reported earlier today ... that Britney was due in court at 1:30. We were told her people didn't want her to show because Brit would be besieged by reporters.
But the commish apparently wasn't as receptive to Britney not showing as we had heard. Commissioner Goetz said, "The court was supposed to meet with Ms. Spears this afternoon and there was a misunderstanding. I'm going to continue the matter until next Friday at 1:30 and she will be here."
Ken Baker, from E! Online, was on with Ryan Seacrest this morning and gave more info about Britney and Jason.
According to Baker, they did break up over the holidays, but got back together and have been together basically every day since. The break up happened because they were fighting a lot. He said one of their fights was about Sam and Adnan contacting Jason.

So much for staying shacked up at the Mondrian Hotel all alone with her assistant Brett!
Britney Spears started off her day around 11 a.m., first stopping by a music studio on Wilshire - where she was working on her latest album! So excited for that, natch. Then our girl was dropped off in Bev Hills for a little retail therapy...
Our photogs on the scene say that Brit "seemed relieved to get out of the house," or in this case, her hotel!, and that she "appeared to be in better spirits than in recent days."
Then Britney stopped at Pottery Barn for some moderately priced home furnishings and afterward, headed to the Chateau Marmont around 2:45 pm.
Jason Trawick was there waiting for her. So it looks like the twosome are at least on friendly terms. Maybe their rough patch is smoothed over temporarily?
The two just left the hotel together in the same car -- Brit's bodyguard driving Jason's car and Jason chauffeuring Britney in her car. They stopped at Jason's house to pick up what appeared to be an overnight bag for him and then headed to Britney's house!
What does all of this mean ... Are these two back together? Are they just friends? Just business associates? Business associates spending the night together???!!!

Satisfying her need to drop a little cash, Britney Spears headed out on a shopping spree in Beverly Hills on Wednesday afternoon (January 7).
Showing off her dark brunette locks, the “3” singer browsed through a local antique shop’s selections while joined by her trusty security staffer.
Meanwhile, Miss Spears recently chatted with Look magazine about her body appearance - confessing that she’s never totally satisfied with her physique.
Brit tells, “I’m such a perfectionist, which means I’m never satisfied. I always strive for things to be better. I think you can be happy with the person on the inside but on the outside you’re always striving for more. But that’s how you end up driving yourself crazy.”
Asked if she considers herself a sex icon, the 28-year-old replied, “I don’t see myself like that at all. I don’t know why. To me, someone who is sexy is someone with confidence, who carries themselves properly and is comfortable in their own skin.”
