Britney loses custody of her children

[heaven]

Neither do I..There comes a time in everybody's life when one has to stand in front of the mirror,look into it and take control of your life. People from worse situations,with far less resources available to them,have managed to turn it all around...

I second that. She deserves it. I hope the kids will be fine..

I'm sorry, but I don't think you, me, or anyone else on this board or any other have the right to say that.

...

You have no idea what goes on behind closed doors. Look at how Kevin Federline has treated her? It was this time last year people were shouting how happy they were she finally kicked the scrounging money-grabber out. Now? He's the publics saviour, come to rescue the children.

The media is a joke. She is being portrayed as bad mother because it sells papers, and it fits.

You make decent points, but on the contrary, who are you to think you know everything there is about her? To criticize the media for publicizing her life while at the same time saying that the media makes her look bad... where do you get the grounds that she's not that bad? From the media as well?

Actions show louder than words, Britney isn't getting special court treatment for the kids, they're treating her just as if they'd treat any normal citizen in this type of situation. She clearly has issues, and the last thing she needs is to have her kids learning from her examples as she tries to clean up. When she's cleaned up her life, and there's no dispute that she does need to do that, then she should be able to have her kids back.

OMG! Chris Crocker has probably already started recording a new britney video. Please no!

If you missed what he did before, here is the link

I feel sorry for her. To have come down so low...

Every time I walk by a news stand, the front page is always something about Britney.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I think I'm going to agree with Chris Crocker.

We need to leave her alone and let her get her life back together.

Your post seems to just try to contradict everything I have written in mine. Before making a reply like that again, please read my other posts - where I clearly say a few times 'Britney has problems. Britney has done things wrong'. And like I have also said, this post is not about that. This post is about her self destruction in front of the world, and people carrying on making her feel and look worse and worse. No one knows fact from fiction, but if the life of Britney Spears' children was so bad, they would have been taken from her long, long before this.

It's Hollywood - its hard to seperate fact from fiction. The papers aren't going to sell copies showing what a brilliant mother she is, thats more OK or HELLO!'s style. The papers want to tarnish her, dish the 'dirt'. Never once have I seen them print anything positive about her, or even well wishing her.

All I am saying is stop, and listen to where your getting all your information from. Papers, who have slagged who off in the past? Everyone. And how many times have papers printed something one week, to completely reverse their allegations the next? Not only is it Hollywood, but its the media - and mixing the 2, when they often go hand in hand, can have disasterious effects.

Britney has been very, very bad - thats well document from photographs of her out partying. Now its not the partying thats bad, its when she does it (ie: after court hearings). But we don't know whats going on behind closed doors.

Take this an example of what I'm saying. A lot of Britney's ex-staff are writing stories on her, and jumping onto K-Fed's side of the fence. Fair enough, they're doing their part ''because she's causing the children harm". But, when they were on Ms. Spears' payroll and earning God knows how much, where was their concern for the children? Where was their disgust, which is ''turning them to exploit all the lies"? They've suddenly developed good-will characteristics.

Anyway, back to my example. Priness Diana was loved by all. Now, before any of you get on your high horse saying "Don't compare her to Britney - close your mouths, and read my post properly. After her death, her closest aide, Paul Burrel, did the dirty on her, and sold a lot of secrets on her, did TV interviews, wrote books - the whole 9 yards. She was an angel - and nothing like Britney Spears, yet in the name of money and personal gain, even her staff turned their backs on her.

Now, think of it in Britneys case, except, add Hollywood, an already deep interest by the tabloids. It's too easy. It wouldn't surprise me if every account written by her staff in the media was a load of bull****.

Actions show louder than words, Britney isn't getting special court treatment for the kids, they're treating her just as if they'd treat any normal citizen in this type of situation.

Yes, as they should. However, the media aren't.

She is not getting the chance to respond, she's conflicting with herself over what to do, people are leaving her and turning their backs on her in the name of money left, right and centre. Her Husband, who she idolised against the whole worlds' wishes bled her dry and left her, even her own Mother who apparently dispised Kevin has now moved over to his camp. She's completely and utterly broken, in every sense of the word. She's probably on anti-depressents and God only knows what else.

She needs to left alone, no media, nothing. They should see just what its doing to her and her children. She needs a circle of strong, supportive people around her to get better - however long it takes. Writing things that are hear say will only make her go round in circles. The dogs who feed off her name aren't stopping, so why should she bother? No ones noticed that she's trying to improve.

Just because other people have got over things, myself included, we aren't all the same. The point someone made about people who have nothing getting over things is quite possibly the most ridiculous, idiotic thing I have heard in my life. Because she has assistants, money and a nice life.. it should make it easier? Your really have a lot to learn about 'people'.

That might be true, but the direction her career took in its later stages was under her complete control. She started off as a goody-two-shoes singer, and she exploited herself.

Not really. Record companies have a lot of control over their artists. While Britney's has nothing at all over her now - they did. Remember the time when it was ''Her naughty school image has gone - look at her NOW!". Britney Spears', like others, such as Christina Aguilera, had their Teenage Rebellion in front of the camera - at the support of the record companies and tabloids. Why? It made them all money.

As for the last few years where has simply been 'out of the spotlight' (or at least tried). She has had a very troubles personal life. She seems like a very needy person. She chose Kevin Federline to fill that need. And look at what he did. A divorce or bad relationship is bad normally - imagine having your dirty laundry flaunted every day, across billboards, magazines, papers, TV and the internet. I would hate to think how I would cope. I don't think I would.

Perhaps her name doesn't need to be dragged down further, but she also doesn't help matters by continuing her activities in the public spotlight. It's not even a matter of us judging solely on what is published in the rags about her, it's about what she does so publicly.

There is no perhaps about it. It doesn't. End of story.

Continuing her activities in public? So, because of who she is, she's not allowed out to party, because it will wreck the pedestal image we are meant to hold of her? She has gone out at all the wrong times, and last year especially, all the wrong people. But people should have the common sense to see that she's literally breaking down - there is nothing left. She's going crazy.

You don't know anyone who's gone out and got wasted? Drowned their sorrows? She can't go anywhere non public and do this, other than her own home. And if she does that, her Staff are going to write things about her. At least if she goes out and does it, she can't be classed as directly hurting her children. They at least have someone looking after them.

I agree that she shouldn't get into the states she does, or at least as often, in public. But shes young, and lost. I can see it from what I would imagine is her point of view.

She can't go out without being classed as trying to 'createa public display' or exhibit herself - as the press are always after her. They literally chase people. It's their jobs and they do not care - they hunt people down.

 

[Abstract]

JDT has made many good points, and I agree with most of what s/he has said.


I just wanted to say that we don't really know much about Kevin Federline other than he looks like a d****e-bag. However, this doesn't mean anything in real terms. I don't know him personally, and my only impression is what the tabloid media tells us. If he's the better parent, or possibly, a "great" parent, then I don't have any problem with him having the kids.

Thank God for that. Those kids are better off elsewhere.

I don't know who this Kevin guy is but going off what the press has reported about her as a person then she sounds very dangerous to keep around such young children.

LEAVE BRITNEY SPEARS ALONE!!! SHE'S NOT WELL RIGHT NOW!!








leave britney alooooonnnnnneeee....



I'm bored of this already

 

[jaydub]

I don't understand why she's made out to sound like the unfortunate pawn of her mother and the record company. She STILL had the choice about how to live her personal life, and she chose poorly. <forgive the indiana jones line...>

She's got her own personal responsibility in this, and whether the record company or her mother played a role (or not), she's the one who was ultimately responsible for her actions. It's always easier to blame all these peripheral people in her life, but in the end the one who pays the price is her - and she is.

 

[rdowns]

Oh, poor Britney.

Fake Steve postulates that she is bad for the iPhone.

In other news, the Mother of the Year candidate overslept and missed a custody hearing. And we have new pics of her va-jay-jay.

Can't we just leave her alone.

 

[chaosbunny]

JDT, you made some very good statements, I agree with some of them.

However, I'm getting sick of the "omg poor star the evil press follows you everywhere" comments. Not only from you, but every time I hear or read this.

After all, the stars chose this career path, worked very hard and had the necessary luck to get there. And they earn an insane amount of money compared to other jobs, that doesn't reflect any of their actual effort, of course there have to be negative aspects. In the end, the media pushed these people to whom they are now, driving a different car every day of the year and bathing in champagne. Britney is just an example that money alone doesn't make you happy, but it certainly doesn't make you unhappy either.

There are thousands of homeless people, mothers with 2 children trying to survive with minimum wage or on social welfare, etc. etc.
Compared to these lives Britneys oh so big trouble seems like a little minor unlucky phase. After all, she has the money to just visit the best therapists on the planet and check into the best rehab clinic, she just needs to get her a** up. Others with no money and similar problems (drugs, depressions, etc.) don't have the luxury to take all the time that's necessary to get back on track.

If you want to pity someone, google Africa for example, but certainly not Britney Spears.
