Madonna has shown her unremitting support for Britney , insisting that the media needs to "step off" the troubled singer. In a recent interview with the “Yo on E!" satellite radio show, Madonna urged everyone to save the fading pop star. "They need to step off. For real...Let's go save her," E! Online quoted her, as telling the radio show.
The ‘Material Girl" singer revealed that Spears remains the favourite artist of her 11-year-old daughter Lourdes. Madonna, who"s married to film director Guy Ritchie, added that Lourdes “gets the drift of what"s going on, and I think she feels very protective of Britney." She also insisted that like her daughter, she also remains a supporter of the beleaguered star. Madonna recently revealed that she enjoys listening to Spears' Blackout album while exercising.
Britney and Madonna famously locked lips on the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards and collaborated on the song "Me Against the Music." Madonna also said that she plans to spend the summer in New York and may go on tour in the fall to promote her new album, Hard.

Kevin Federline: I Will Always be There for Britney Spears.
Latest Britney Spears News
Tina Robinson claims Aldridge, the father of the 16-year-old's unborn child, proposed to Jamie Lynn "a few days ago".
Reports the Zoey 101 star and Aldridge, 18, are engaged to be married surfaced earlier this week when Jamie Lynn was spotted showing off a diamond ring to friends and family in her hometown of Kentwood, Louisiana, and to relatives in Mississippi.
Robinson tells UsMagazine.com, "He proposed a few days ago, and she accepted.
"They probably weren't expecting (the proposal) to be, like, right now, but, with her being pregnant, that really pushed it up."
Britney Spoiled Chambers' Hospital Stay
The actor checked himself into UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles for a break just days before Spears was admitted into the same hospital in a media frenzy.
And Chambers insists only his family and close friends would have known about his health issues if the hospital hadn't become a hotspot for reporters and the paparazzi.
The 37-year-old tells the new issue of Life & Style magazine, "I only got attention because Britney came. Otherwise, it would've been private."

Britney Spears News:
Mother pulled in about 10.6 million viewers, a huge spike from its season-to-date average of 7.8 million, according to Nielsen Media Research.
Critics were relatively impressed.
In the New York Post, Linda Stasi wrote: "You'd never know that pop tart Britney Spears had ever had a bad day in her life.
"Now clean and sober and under her dad's thumb once again, Britney looked as adorable last night as she did waaay back when.
"On the show, which she filmed in the last few weeks, Brit looked slim, (OK she was behind a desk), trim and gorgeous.
"And, more importantly, her acting was nothing short of adorably believable.Mother was the fourth-highest-rated show of the evening, and CBS won the night (averaging 12.5 million viewers), even as the rest of its comedy lineup dropped slightly from last week's record-setting return to original episodes.
Spears, 26, played love-struck receptionist Abby in a tattoo-removal clinic who falls for the main character, Ted. Spears spent two days filming the scenes. She last made a TV appearance with a guest role in the sitcom Will & Grace in 2006. She said in a statement issued two weeks ago, while shooting her scenes, that she was having "a blast."
How I Met Your Mother, narrated through flashbacks from the future, stars Josh Radnor as a man who is joined in his quest for true love by his lecherous pal, played by Neil Patrick Harris.
Producers said there were "no diva moments" and Josh Radnor, who plays Ted, told USA Today the cast tried to provide "a nice safe place" for Spears.
"It's a cute, funny role, and she ended up being great in it," he said.
"She's actually very vulnerable and sweet."
He went on: "We both screwed up our lines (during taping) and made fun of ourselves.
"She definitely has comedic instincts. She made funny line readings (during script read-throughs). That's the sign of a good comedic actor."
However, it had been claimed her co-stars struggled to work with her because she refused to take off her sunglasses until the cameras started rolling.
A show insider told the National Enquirer magazine: "Britney delivered her lines, but the show's actors had a tough time reading her expressions since they couldn't see her eyes at all.
"It's hard for an actor to make a connection when all he sees is his own reflection staring back at him in shiny dark glasses, but no one wanted to upset Britney by asking her to take them off.
"In the end, someone said to her, 'You will be taking the sunglasses off for the actual tapings, right?' To which Britney responded, 'Uh ... yeah!'"
How I Met Your Mother is shown on the Seven Network in Australia.
Meanwhile, Spears's life remains in the hands of her father Jamie, after a claim challenging his conservatorship was rejected yesterday.
Jon Eardley - who claims the troubled singer hired him to challenge Jamie's control of her estate and daily life because it violates her civil rights - filed a claim in the Los Angeles Court of Appeals, but the judge rejected it without even seeking a response from Jamie and co-conservator Andrew Wallet.
While Spears's team have always denied the 26-year-old asked Eardley to represent her, the lawyer has now produced a transcript of a phone conversation they had before Jamie was made responsible for his daughter.
In the call, Spears - who set up the call through a paparazzo friend and speaks in an English accent throughout the conversation - can be heard saying: "Basically I want my life back. I want to drive my car. I want to live in my house alone. I want to pick my own security, see who I want to see and make it happen."

Britney Spears spends Easter in Malibu with parents.
Breaking News: Britney Spears
Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Britney Spears' dad is set to take her away from Los Angeles' decadent lifestyle. Jamie Spears, who was granted conservatorship over his famous daughter's affairs, is reportedly planning to force her to move back in to their family home in Louisiana.
Jamie's strategy is just one of his many plans to make certain Britney, 26, will stay away from "bad influences." Among his other ideas are a court request to keep her away from clubs, drugs, and her paparazzo boyfriend Adnan Ghalib.
An insider reveals, "Britney has been feeling lonely and isolated since her dad has taken control of her life. He hopes to take her back to Louisiana where she will be surrounded by her family."
"Jamie also hopes it will give her the chance to mend her troubled relationship with her mom and her recent rift with her pregnant sister. And he hopes to keep her away from the negative L.A. scene and people who've been using her."
After their sibling falling-out, Britney and her 16-year-old pregnant sister Jamie Lynn have reportedly been keeping in touch nowadays. The pop star is apparently giving the Nickelodeon star's soon-to-be-born child baby stuff and toys without regard to the price tags.
Meanwhile, Britney is also reportedly planning to open her own dance studio. She has recently been giving young children dance lessons and found it enjoyable.
A source tells celebrity blogger Perez Hilton's site, "It wil lbe right near Millenium [her favorite dance studio in the Valley]. And she plans to call it The Basement."

Hollywood actor Mel Gibson has shot down rumors claiming that Britney Spears would be performing a gospel gig at his church.
Rumors started off after a British tabloid The Mirror revealed that the troubled pop star would be performing a gig at his catholic church in California.
The reports also claimed that Spears was to have “a new song written for her for the occasion”,
According to TMZ.com, Gibson’s representative has dismissed the rumours insisting there isn’t “an ounce of truth to it,” .
Gibsons church, known as The Holy Family Catholic Church holds a daily mass in Latin and follows an ancient ideology of Catholicism.

Britney Spears Prerogative
Customer Reviews
A Little Confusing, But... (A Guide To Using This DVD)3
This DVD can be a little hard to use, especially trying to find the alternate versions of the videos. Here is how, what they are called, and how they differ. Once the DVD gets to the main menu, choose "Alt. View." The screen changes and here you access the different videos. Below is the listing and what they are:
*My Prerogative (Dimentional Edit){a.k.a. Digital View} = the beginning has some additional footage of people at the party. In the video, there are 2 different "clips" you can watch. One clip is some additional black and white footage of her on the bed. The second "clip" is photos of her and other guests at the party. Also look for the astronaut from the "Oops!...I Did It Again" video. Access these features by pressing Enter on your remote when the word ENTER appears on your tv screen.
*Outrageous (Takes) = Unused footage from the "Outrageous" video. Her most infamous video due to the fact that it was never completed. Shortly after the shoot began, Britney injured her knee. After she healed, it was never finished. And yes, that IS Snoop Dogg. And NO, that is NOT Britney at the end.
*Everytime (Angle Two) = When this video starts, LET IT PLAY. Hitting ENTER will only let you see how the video originally aired. This version is footage of outtakes, false starts, etc. The majority of it is Britney standing in front of us, singing.
*Toxic (Karaoke) = Take a guess what this is, lol. It is the video with the words on the screen. Sort of. It is a version of the "Toxic" video never seen. It is mainly Britney dancing around with those diamonds glued onto her body. Also, the singing has been totally removed, so it is just the music. I must say it is VERY COOL to see this version. She looks so good with the fan blowing her hair all over as she dances. You can hit ENTER on your remote during the video to turn the singing on if you like, hit ENTER again to turn it back off. WARNING: turning the singing on and off causes the video to start back at the beginning. I recommend watching it twice, once with the singing off, then again with the singing on. Also, some of the words are mis-spelled. "Your" is used when "you're" is the correct version.
*I'm A Slave For You (Uncut) {a.k.a. Accapella} = More bonus footage not used in the original version. On the plus side, it means more male nipples. Hitting ENTER shows you even more bonus footage. I suggest watching it twice. The first time, let it play. The second time, hit ENTER on your remote. I had a hard time using this video, especially when I hit the ANGLE button on my remote, took me to all kinds of weird shots. I eventually got irritated with all the bonus footage and stopped trying to find it all in this video.
*Don't Let Me Be The Last To Know (DLMBTLTK Outtakes) = Not sure what this was. It appeared to be outtakes set to a remix/instrumental version of the song. Also mixed in are clips of other videos. THE MOST BIZARRE version of one of her videos yet. Also very short, less than 2 minutes long.
*Stronger (Outtakes) = You guessed it... A neat little surprise it the home video footage of Britney when she was younger mixed in. It is also like a remix of 'Stronger.' Also less than 2 minutes long.
*Oops!...I Did It Again (Uncuts) = The original video with the begging trip to space removed. Instead, the whole video is Britney in front of us, singing and dancing in that red outfit. At the end, hit ENTER to see more outtakes. Britney does some funny stuff on the outtakes. It ends abruptly.
*You Drive Me Crazy (Mix) = Not sure how to explain this version. I guess it is the same video playing at different times on the same screen?? Also includes outtakes. LESS THAN ONE MINUTE LONG!!
*...Baby, One More Time (Uncut) = Hitting ENTER when the word ENTER is on the screen takes you to the alternate version. Nothing special, just some outtakes. And we see that that really IS Britney doing a back-flip.
OVERALL = Disappointed with this DVD, it sounds much better than it really is. The menus are hard to use, and the box makes it sound like there are hours of bonus footage. That is a lie. The alternate versions of the videos are much shorter. I could have arranged this DVD in an easy-to-use format. All this bonus footage to the videos could have been done in a better way.
Britney: From 'Baby One More Time to 'My Prerogative'.5
After 4 studio albums & a Greatest Hits collection, Britney had already knocked up a total of 18 singles. All of these are included here.
There is also a clip for `Outrageous'. This video was never finished due to Britney injuring her knee on set. She required surgery & had to cancel the remainder of her `Onyx Hotel' tour. Ouch.
As a final treat, the remix for `Overprotected' is also included. This extremely popular remix has it's very own video, completely different to the original video.
And since this a dvd release, you can play with the multiangle feature on your remote. And if you already weren't getting enough, some of the videos can be viewed uncut!!

what a true talent should be5
for all that comment on britney about her music base on her personal life, then shame on you.
a true music should be judge solely on the artist performance, not about her-who-care-personal-life, the music is what we enjoy not her-who-care-personal-life, imagine how you be if all, around the world stuck their nose in your personal life?
britney, I like her music and performance, but not her-who-care-personal-life, because I too have a personal life that I don't want the world to know about! and so do you.
and also if you're not a pop fan than don't comment on pop music, it just like a caveman visiting a 21st century city, don't know nothing and it would be a wast of time and words for those who wanting to hear comments from a true expert.
back the the topic, the music video is the best, you should buy it.
I love it, don't know about you.Sphere: Related Content
Britney's Father Plans To Get Rid Of Her Cars
In addition to giving Britney $1,500 a week to spend, Spears father is planning to sell or dispose of many of his daughters’ cars which range from two white Mercedes, a white Mini Cooper convertible, and a black Audi.
Lawyers for Jamie Spears told the court on Monday that the cars were costing the estate too much money to maintain, and that getting rid of them would “save substantial expense to the conservatorship estate,” reports the Associated Press.
Jamie Spears was named co-conservator of Britney’s estate earlier this year shortly after the singer was hospitalised for psychiatric issues.
He will maintain control of the estate until a hearing on July 31.
Kevin Federline Celebrates His Birthday in Las Vegas
By Mark Gray
Originally posted Saturday March 22, 2008 11:45 AM EDT www.people.com
On Friday night, Britney Spears's ex-husband took a break from parenting to ring in his 30th birthday at Pure Nightclub – the same place he celebrated his birthday last year.
As he entered the club, a dapper-looking Federline – wearing a chic gray suit – said he felt "great" about turning 30. Flanked by a group of 20 pals, including his family and attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan, Federline headed straight to his VIP table where he was greeted by ex-girlfriend Shar Jackson.
Throughout the night, Federline and his group sang along to tunes by Jay-Z, Kanye West and other hip-hop artists. At one point, the deejay played Federline's own "Lose Control," a song familiar to the club considering its music video was shot there in 2006. Close to midnight, Federline danced on the couch at his table and held up a California license plate that read "FDRLINE", all while drinking Jack Daniels.
At one point in the evening, the birthday boy grabbed the microphone for a rambling profanity-laced speech in which he encouraged everyone to have "a good time. "
"I lost my voice at the craps tables and I lost all my money," he went on to say in a raspy voice, before a friend dragged him away from the mic.
He left the club just before 2 a.m. and headed back to his Caesars Palace suite. On Saturday, Federline is expected to return home to Los Angeles, where sons Preston and Jayden remained in the care of a nanny and a bodyguard while their dad went to Vegas.

She said: “He told me he pitied her and felt sorry for her. She’d been through a lot. That’s why he spent time with her.”

She also added, “He asked me to start a new life with him. He said: ‘Let’s leave Hollywood, live in Italy and start a family.’
The waitress also claimed, that the pop wreck used to bombard Ghalib with more than hundred texts a day, “Britney used to call all the time when he was at mine. She sent him hundreds of texts a day, sometimes just seconds apart,” said Amanda.
But reality hit Amanda when she got to know about Adnan’s and Britney’s break up,” I felt sick,” Amanda said. “I knew the texts were ones we’d sent to each other.
“I realized there were three of us in this relationship - and I would never be a priority.
“I was heartbroken.”

Breaking News: Britney Spears' Friend Objects to Commissioner
4 days ago
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Britney Spears' friend Osama "Sam" Lutfi has filed papers objecting to the Superior Court commissioner assigned to the pop star's conservatorship case.
Lutfi filed the papers Friday, but was not present for a hearing Monday at which Commissioner Reva Goetz extended a temporary restraining order against him until April 16.
His one-sentence filing said: "Please take notice that Osama "Sam" Lutfi will not stipulate to the above-referenced case being heard by Reva Goetz, commissioner presiding, to whom the above-entitled case has been assigned."
The document was signed and indicated Lutfi was representing himself.
Although the document was filed Friday, it did not reach the courtroom in time for Monday's hearing, Superior Court spokesman Allan Parachini said Tuesday.
Parachini said Lutfi can appear in court on April 16 to ask for the case to be reassigned to a judge.
Commissioners perform many of the same duties as judges, but all parties have to agree to a commissioner hearing a case.
Michael Sands, a spokesman for Lutfi, said during the weekend that Lutfi agreed to abide by the terms of the restraining order for another month.
The order directs Lutfi to stay at least 250 yards away from the pop star and her homes.
The order was requested by Spears' mother, Lynne, when Spears was hospitalized on a psychiatric hold at UCLA Medical Center.
Tuesday, March 18, 2008
LA courts Scott Gordon has ruled Britneys' actions led to many delays in the proceedings, according to the AP.
Kevins attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, asked at one point for nearly $500,000 to cover the fees
The singers' attorney, Stacy Phillips, said that Mr. Kaplan was over-charging.
The two were divorced this past July after being married for three years.
Kevin was won primary custody of the kids, two-year-old Sean Preston and Jayden James, aged one, this past October.
In the mean time a judge extended a restraining order against Sam Lutfi, Britneys' "former manager," for one month.
The pop stars' Dad, Jamie, currently controls the 26-year-old singer's personal and business affairs.
In Feb., an LA judge ordered Sam not go within 250 yards of Miss Spears.
Brits' mom Lynne has sayed that Mr Lutfi had drugged her Britney, cut her phone off and taken control of her money.

Britney Spears Purchased An Elephant For Her Sister Jamie Lynn
Appearantly all that money went to an ocean theme for her future niece or nephew and she wants to give them the best of the best from the beginning.
The new baby will not only be swimming with the dolphins but will have organic bedding and baby blankets. Petit Tresor is the one behind this very environmentally friendly nursery in Kentwood, Louisiana.
The huge custom made elephant has a blue bow and will sit in the middle of the nursery. Since Britney's picking up the tab for little sis, she's sparing no expense with the over $30,000 tab.
With the blue bow on the elephant and after the two sisters bought items in blue at the baby store. The rumor mill is in full swing that Jamie Lynn's first baby with boyfriend Casey Aldridge is a boy.
News: Britney Spears Is Back
Her father's control has been extended until July 31, attorneys have been brought in to make decisions for her and audit her business deals. This all happened after the second time in one month that Britney's mental status had been questioned by doctors, so there wasn't much question that the court was acting in the pop star's best interest.
However, news this week is that Britney is back to work. She is rehearsing and taping an episode of the television comedy "How I Met Your Mother" and also released a new movie video. This seems to call into question how sick the star really is. When it's been less than forty five days since she was first legally unable to make her own decisions. Britney does seem well enough to function on the set.
On Monday March 17th we might find out more regarding Britney's mental status at a hearing. This hearing is about the temporary restraining order against her former manager Sam Lufti. There is new arguments whether Mr. Lufti or those handling her now are to blame for her mental problems.
Your guess is as good as mine what will be coming next, but right now Britney states she is "having a blast" with her new work endeavors, especially on set. She's at least not adventuring out in strange hair and accents, so she must be doing better.
Breaking News: Hospital to Fire Workers in Spears Case

Mar 14, 2008
LOS ANGELES (AP) — UCLA Medical Center will fire some employees and discipline others for snooping at the confidential medical records of Britney Spears, who was hospitalized in its psychiatric ward, a hospital official told The Associated Press.
Jeri Simpson, the hospital's director of human resources who was involved in the investigations of the confidentiality breach, confirmed the action but could not say how many employees were affected. The hospital did not say when the snooping took place or which of Spears records were looked at.
The Los Angeles Times reported on its Web site Friday that the breaches stemmed from incidents before Spears' most recent hospitalization, but did not elaborate.
The newspaper said more than 13 employees, none of whom are doctors, would be fired. Twelve others, including several doctors, will be disciplined otherwise for looking at her computerized records, it reported.
This is not the first time the hospital has had to reprimand employees for looking at Spears' records. Several workers were fired after they were caught snooping after Spears gave birth to her first son, Sean Preston, in September 2005.
"It's not only surprising, it's very frustrating and it's very disappointing," Simpson told the newspaper, adding that she felt "horrible" that it happened again.
Spears was admitted to the hospital twice in January under a state law allowing patients to be held against their will for up to 72 hours for evaluation if they are deemed a danger to themselves or others. On her second trip to the medical center, Spears stayed for nearly a week.
Leading up to the hospitalizations, Spears had been behaving bizarrely. She shaved her head, was seen in public without underwear, ran over a celebrity photographer's foot and attacked a vehicle with an umbrella.
After her Feb. 6 release, a judge placed Spears and her estate under a temporary conservatorship. Conservatorships are granted for people deemed unable to take care of themselves or their affairs.
Spears has since had very limited contact with her toddler sons who are under the sole physical and legal custody of her ex-husband Kevin Federline.

Spears 'Having a Blast' on CBS' 'Mother'

NEW YORK (AP) — Britney Spears is relishing her new role on "How I Met Your Mother." Spears has been taping her much-hyped cameo on the CBS sitcom for the March 24 episode, in which she portrays a receptionist in a dermatologist's office named Abby who crushes on Ted (Josh Radnor).
"Working at `How I Met Your Mother' has been so terrific," Spears said in a statement Thursday. "Everyone, including the cast, the crew and the producers, has been wonderful and Abby is such a fun girl to play. I'm having a blast!"
CBS spokesman Kelli Raftery said Spears attended a table reading with the cast on Monday, did a "run-through" on Tuesday and filmed scenes Wednesday. Raftery confirmed reports that Spears' divorced parents — James and Lynne — dropped by the "Mother" set on Wednesday.
Spears was scheduled to shoot scenes Thursday.
Radnor told People.com that "on the first day of the shoot, Britney knew her lines better than I knew mine. She's been great to work with."
Spears has previous TV sitcom experience playing a character on a 2006 episode of "Will and Grace." She was also the host and musical guest on "Saturday Night Live" in 2000.
"How I Met Your Mother," returning Monday with all-new episodes following the writers strike, co-stars Radnor, Jason Segal, Alyson Hannigan, Cobie Smulders and Neil Patrick Harris as twentysomethings living in New York City.
Spears has been under the conservatorship of her father, James, following bizarre behavior and two hospitalizations. She is also locked in a custody battle with ex-husband Kevin Federline over the former couple's sons, Jayden James, 1, and Sean Preston, 2.
CBS is owned by CBS Corp.

Britney Remaims Under Dad
E! Online has reported that it's looking as if Britney's summer vacation is going to be another family affair.
Jamie Spears' coconservatorship over his daughter's estimated $100 million estate has been extended until July 31, Los Angeles Superior Court spokesman Alan Parachini said Wednesday.
No other details were given, but the temporary power Britney's dad has had over her affairs was scheduled to expire on Monday, and it's well documented that Jamie and his attorneys have been adamant about stopping efforts made on Britney's behalf to wrest control away from the conservators, including a recent move apparently orchestrated by Sam Lutfi to transfer the case to federal court.
Jamie and attorney Andrew Wallet were named coconservators of Britney's finances, and Jamie was put in charge of her welfare on Feb. 1, the day after the Blackout artist was admitted to UCLA Medical Center's psych ward for evaluation, her second hospitalization that month.
