Did she voluntarily get an IUD, has now changed her mind and they won't allow it to be removed, or did they force an IUD on her? WTF
Okay those comments on her gigs in Vegas makes me unspeakably angry, what the fuck. Everyone involved in the monetary flow of this conservativeship should be sued for every penny they have, the psychiatrists, the legal representatives and of course her parents and promoters. That is literally slavery what they are trying to pull.
100% it's like meek. People only found out about some common shit bc it happened to a famous person.
While not exactly the same, Stan Lee was another good case of how people who need help can be massively taken advantage of.

Yep, that whole saga is a prime example, and like was said is hardly something that only happens to the famous, and shows that even being famous you can get stuck unable to get the proper help you need even if desired. Much like Stan lee this wasn't a one person or group only show, its clear a whole chain of people were abusing her for money and as far as I can see were all in on it in order for her not have had even a little help filing against them.
Stuff like this is just like...there's way too many ways for people to fall through cracks. Maybe we should be shifting some of the classes towards general law so people can't run into stuff like this.
It'll never happen tho
Fucking insane.
This is horrific. And she's absolutely right about Lithium, having tried that as an option that ultimately didn't work. You constantly need to monitor that. There's so much about this that's truly disgusting.
I'm reading this shit with my jaw hanging open. How the fuck is this shit allowed to happen in a so-called civilised country? This shit is barbaric and cruel, and is no doubt contributing to worsening any mental health issues she has. She's been forced into work, had an IUD inserted against her will and has no freedom of movement to live her life...how the fuck can that be ok? As others have said, we're only hearing about this because it's Britney Spears, how many people are suffering this kind of abusive captivity with no means to fight back publicly? It took Britney this long to be able to say her piece, regular people are completely fucked, and suffering who knows what level of abuse.
This is disgusting.
This is disgusting.
Yeah this, mental health issues aren't helped with this shit and honestly the fact that the usa syatem allows such a fucking ridiculous thing to exist in this form is more proof that the American system is fucking stupid and isn't in anyway designed to try and understand mental health etc. There is no reason this stupid system should exist at this point in the way it does considering as well as Britney there are a bunch of known cases of elderly people abused because courts have put them under care of assholes and people who don't know them at all.
I mean at this point it doesn't matter either way, if she originally decided to have it or they forced it doesn't change the fact that they are forcing her to continue to have it against her will. It's human rights abuse and absolutely fucking disgusting. The idea of actively deciding that someone has mental health issues and using it as an excuse to force them into not being able to have kids is awful, let alone the fact that a big part of the reason I have to assume is her asshole dad knows if she's pregnant then it's a lot harder to force her to go do shows and make money for him to steal among other issues such as having more reasons for her to point out why he shouldn't be stealing her fucking money with the courts permission.
It's also clear that the managers etc are making it seem like she's not fit to be in control because they know if she has a say she'll tell them to fuck off and will actually have a break like she wants to and that's the money train for them stopped as well. All of the people involved at every level are just milking every cent they can from her with zero care for her wellbeing at all. It's as clear as day and if that's what the usa court system thinks is doing a good job of caring for someone with mental health as they seemingly have done for 13 years now despite her arguing multiple times for her own life back, then it's also pretty clear that a lot of judges in the usa are idiots who don't belong in the positions they have. Which isn't surprising when you considering the only qualification you actually need is to have a president nominate you and a partisan hack senate confirm you as seen from 2016-2020
Her father definitely took advantage off her "unstableness" back then. It got blown up to hell and back and he used it to pin her down where she literally can't do anything.
I think it was either TMZ or one of the sites like that said Rolling Stone had an 'In Memoriam" ready to go for her at any time back then. You'd think the record label would dispatch the best of the best to take care of her. Heck I remember when Dr. Phil tried to get in on her downward spiral. Even Katt Williams had a bit about her being "wheeled into the back of an ambulance looking happy and mad at the same time." If I remember right there were some pretty nasty people that surrounded her.

The conversation about whether she's actually mentally ill should be held. Be prescribed lithium and locked up for rejecting a choreography move. Be threatened with not seeing her sons or suffering punishment if she doesn't agree to dance moves, shows or being locked up. WTF is this. She said all of that.
She specifically mentioned Miley Cyrus because they once shared managers. Larry Rudolph was Miley's manager in 2014 when she did the VMA thing and smoked weed freely. Britney had fired her manager Larry Rudolph twice before being put on a cship. Once in 2005 and the definite time in early 2007, when she accused him of setting her up with parties and the subsequent rehab stunts. First thing her dad did after being granted cship was to rehire him -- and the first thing Larry did upon being rehired was to manage her a new album, a new world tour, videos, music etc etc.
Like, basically what happened in 2007 was that she tried to get away from a set of people who have been with her since the beginning, including her own family, but ended up legally obliged to be with them again. That's what the conservatorship did.

And it doesn't help that she can't even choose her own lawyer. Like, Britney didn't even know she could ask to *end* the conservatorship.
This whole thing is as maddening as it is sad.
This is fucking disturbing.Full transcript is available to read. It's heartbreaking.

It won't because the whole thing has been fucked up from the beginning.
I hope the justice system does as well but there needs to be serious reforms based on what's been described. Britney Spears is obviously an adult of sound mind who had a traumatic experience when she was younger that caused her behavior years ago.
Whenever she gets out of this, I can see her taking years off and out of the spotlight. I fully expect her to make an album when she's 50 (if at all).
I hope she disowns her dad and sues the shit outta him.
Her situation is supremely fucked up. I hope she regains her liberty ASAP and seeks every legal recourse to bury the assholes who are abusing and exploiting her.
I am shocked there is a legal avenue to support this. They were able to rob ber of her money and freedom for 13 YEARS, its insane.
Man I hope she gets her life back, sue the shit out of everyone and deplete everyone's money drowing them in legal fees while she enjoys her life with all her money.

Any, not necessarily about Britney. I can't believe the system allows this kind of control over someone's body over the "mental health" excuse.
You can't even do that to prisoners.
This is a brief part of a harrowing transcript that's unclear. My impression on reading was that she seemed fine with having the IUD, but she wanted to remove it to have another child and was not allowed to. Again, though, it's unclear. Either way, it's horrifying.
I hope the courts do the right thing and correct this glaring injustice. Most of all, I hope Britney can find joy once past this. She has brought joy to so many and does not deserve to live under these conditions (not to say that anyone does, of course, famous or not).
From the transcript, I do worry about her actual mental condition. I have no doubt that whatever she is dealing with has been exacerbated or even caused by the horrible conditions she's lived under. She says at one point that she doesn't believe in therapy (but still says she would like to see a therapist once a week under her own conditions and of her own selection), but I can't blame her considering the sound of the "therapy" she has received. What an absolute mess her family has made of her life.
I'm at a loss for words..... she's literally being treated like a performing animal. This is one of the most vile things I've ever heard of.
10k a WEEK??? And no mention to her of her fucking rights??? That piece of shit lawyer has siphoned millions from her. This is the most obvious fucking con. I hope the judge sees that.
He should be forced to pay everything back.
It's obvious why he doesn't want her to be free, shouldn't be allowed to work anymore.
I think we know why the lawyer didn't try. Dude drained millions from her.
I don't understand how anyone could enjoy the money they made off a woman they basically enslaved and forced to work for 13 years while keeping her as a virtual prisoner in her own life.
How do they sleep at night?
Unironically its time to leave her alone and let her live her life as she sees fit she's been through too much and she doesn't deserve this.
Very well, on a bed of pure gold.
It's abundantly clear her father does not view her as a human being.
I hope she gets out of this shit now.
