Britney Spears has lost her latest attempt to retake control of her life from the authority of her father. It's been 12 years now, and she's presumably in a better place, but the judges disagreed.

She wants her chance to give her side of the story in court:

There's already been one doc on the story, with another coming up soon.

In other news, Twisted Sister have won a court case against some Australian politician who tried to use one of their songs (We're Not Gonna Take It, inevitably) in a campaign without permission:

Britney did indeed get her chance, and she stuck both boots into her dad, and seemed fiercely coherent on her wish to end the conservatorship.

Many other celebrities from Mariah Carey to Justin Timberlake have shown sympathy and backed her call.

It made no difference, and her father remains in control.

The Bessemer Trust, mysterious co-conservators, are now trying to get out of their role, though. If they genuinely don't approve, wouldn't they be better working with Britney, rather than just trying to wash their hands of the whole thing?

This week's Britney update is that her long-time manager has quit working with her after 25 years, and her lawyer also wants out now. On the plus side, her mum Lynne still seems supportive.

I might just do a separate Britney thread yet. This week, she was granted the right to have a lawyer of her own choice at last, and she's emphasised she refuses to work any further on music whilst her father is in charge.

Britney's father has apparently decided to step down from his position as conservator, after all these years. I suspect it's not going to be one great leap to freedom for her, though.

Britney Spears Under Investigation For Striking Employee

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) –Britney Spears, who has been embroiled in a conservatorship case for months, is now under investigation for possibly striking one of her employees at her home.

The Ventura County Sheriff’s Office reported Thursday that the 39-year-old Singer is the suspect in a battery investigation. An employee claims that Spears struck them during a dispute at Spears’ home at about 10 a.m. Monday.

The employee was not hurt, but a complaint was filed with the sheriff’s office. Deputies would not confirm the nature of the dispute.


The sheriff’s office will forward the results of its investigation to the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office for potential consideration of misdemeanor battery charges.

Mississippi-born teen legend who rocked the known world in 1999, and after a good few early albums, saw her career thrown off course by Justin Timberlake, from which she's never really recovered, and in recent years has been more known for her mental health and business chaos. Still, here's some of those hits:

Baby, One More Time

Oops, I Did It Again

I'm A Slave 4 U

Circus

Piece Of Me

Celebrity Damage Control: Britney Spears
She was a child star, then she was a pop star, then she was a superstar, then she got into romance, and things went badly. After 2 marriages and 2 kids, she needed her parents to take control and put her back on the straight and narrow. And she seems to be steadied again now.

Britney Spears - Breaking Point
Muck-raking about her marriage difficulties, haircut and tattoo misadventures, with biographers, psychologists, and members of contemporaneous bands giving their $0.02 on it all. What it all reflected in her music wasn't really the point.

Inside Her World - An Unauthorized Story on Britney Spears
She was a child talent, then a solo singer, then linked with Justin Timberlake, then married and remarried, and melted down. Oh, and the records, some of which were very good indeed. She seems to be more balanced (and less successful) these days.

Framing Britney Spears
Her rather sad life and times. Justin Timberlake screwed her career at a crucial point (her records weren't entirely felt important here, which is a lost chance, in my view), and she never really recovered. Her father's conservatorship has not really helped either. A waste, really. Such is the fate of the talented tot.

The Battle For Britney - Fans, Cash and a Conservatorship
Mobeen Azhar joins the bandwagon over whether Britney should be freed or if she isn't a prisoner. An old enemy of hers, Perez Hilton, seemed contrite, but then his career is a long way from what it was. Catherine Falk talked about her beloved father dying under a conservatorship, after his final wife was not in accord with his children. Will Britney get her day in court (in June)? Time (and more documentaries) will tell. They never discuss the music on these things.

My Life on MTV: Pop Royalty
N Sync, so another chance for back patting to Justin Timberlake, and in irony alert, Britney Spears was the other act, which managed to gloss over her rough times (I guess they didn't happen on MTV, so who cares?)

I gather this fizzled out.

Jamie has made some steps towards stepping down as conservator, though not rapidly enough for her fans' liking.

Controlling Britney Spears
Alex Vlasov worked for Black Box security, who were supposed to be protecting Britney's interests, but it seems likelier they were working more for her father Jamire. Tri-Star were another dodgy-seeming outfit doing Britney more harm than good.

A CNN Special Report - Toxic: Britney Spears' Battle For Freedom
Ronan Farrow was among the contributors offering his $0.02 so you get the idea. The case presented was fairly convincing that all was not all it should have been. Heck, they even interviewed Mischa Barton for her experiences.

Jamie's offer to stand down, far from being the victory it was presented as, was more aimed to take heat off by making it appear he would be doing something sooner than he actually wants to. Britney being able to get her own lawyer seems to have helped matters as she's now being represented by a tougher cookie.

Perhaps coincidentally, Britney has let on that she is writing her own memoir, which she is finding satisfying and cathartic.

Video Killed The Radio Star: Britney Spears
Director Nigel Dick talked about working on her early monster hits like ...Baby One More Time and Oops I Did It Again, where dubious ideas were allowed because they were Britney's ideas. Director Joseph Kahn worked with her on later efforts like Toxic and Womanizer, where she was still full of her own ideas.

Britney at the BBC
A short compilation of her performances, where kids show Blue Peter featured her as much as any other (even for the somewhat inappropriate Toxic).

She's now married (again) to long-time squeeze Sam Asghari. Reportedly her ex turned up to the private occasion and got thrown out.
