Britney Spears' Conservatorship Continues

Britney Spears will stay daddy's little girl a bit longer. The pop princess' battle to sever ties with her dad were denied as a judge ruled to extend her conservatorship. Jamie Spears (Brit's dad) will receive $16,000 a month for it.

As TMZ reports,

The judge didn't specify how long the conservatorship will remain in place, but lawyers involved in the matter tell TMZ they expect it to last somewhere between six months to a year.

TMZ has learned action may be taken next month to begin the process of bringing the conservatorship to an end -- at least part of it.

We will keep you posted as January will be a busy month Britney, she is due to start work on her seventh studio album.

Britney Spears Wants To End Conservatorship

Now that the tour know as Circus is over it's time for Britney Spears to enter into another Circus in the courtroom. Brit's trying to end a conservatorship.

As TMZ reports,

We know there have been several lengthy meetings recently between the lawyers and the court commissioner in the commissioner's chambers.

Jamie and the lawyers will not make the decision to end the conservatorship. They will weigh in, but the person with all the influence is the "capacity expert" -- a psychiatrist who was appointed by the court. The capacity expert will do a thorough evaluation and submit it to the commissioner.

We're told one of the fears Jamie has ... Sam Lutfi, a guy Jamie (Britney's father) thinks is still a threat to Britney if she allows him back in her life. He's got that right.

There are actually two conservatorships -- one over Britney, the person, and the other over Britney's business affairs. We're told the business conservatorship will likely continue. The issue on the table is whether to end the conservatorship over Britney, the person. Again, no decisions have been made, but it's all moving in that direction.

Sounds like Britney will have her hands full for awhile. In January she will start work on her seventh studio album.

Britney Spears' Fans In Australia Upset Over Lip-Synced Concert

Britney is back alright and just like she did in North America when storming off stage over the ventilation system, the pop princess is stirring the pot down under. This time Australian fans are upset Brit took cues from Ashlee Simpson and lip-synced her show on Friday night.

As the Daily Telegraph reports,

Many claimed her show was not worth the $200 they had paid.

The lip-synch controversy has dogged Spears since she arrived in Australia and made headlines around the world, including on US TV's CNN.

Spears mimed most of her songs on stage, singing only on ballads.

Among fans who walked out early was Amanda Hawlet, 22, who drove from home two hours away and spent almost $500 on a weekend to see Britney.

She left only half an hour into the action, angry at the miming.

"I want my money back or I want her to sing properly," she said.

"The ticket cost me $200 and she lip-synched the whole thing.

"It's cost me half a week's wage and you've got bills to pay, but you look forward to this concert, it's a night out - and what do you get? Nothing! It was a waste of $200 - I could have got four pairs of shoes for that."

Wow. Umm, maybe someone here stateside should have warned the Aussie fans that controversy and anything that could possibly go wrong at a concert usually goes wrong at a Britney concert. Look at the bright side. No crotch flash. No wig fell off. Success.

Britney Spears' Family Ready For Her To Marry Again

We're not sure if Britney Spears is thinking about getting married again anytime soon, but if you chatted up her mother you'd get a different impression. The Spears' love Brit's latest beau Jason Trawick.

As Us reports,

"Lynne said, 'He's the kind of man you would dream of your daughter marrying. The kids love him, and he's stable,'" a friend tells Us Weekly.

"Most everyone else abandoned her, but Jason refused to be completely cut out of Britney's life," says a source. "He's very protective of her."

If he's stable, he's gotta be a good guy.

Britney Spears Says Good Bye To North America

The North American leg of Britney Spears' Circus tour finally came to close Sunday night in Las Vegas. There were many, many controversies along the way. What else would you expect, right?

As People reports,

"Hey Vegas, how y'all feeling?" the headliner, 27, asked the crowd in one of the only times that she spoke during the 90-minute show at Mandalay Bay also attended by Lance Bass and Barry Manilow.

It wasn't all work for Spears.

"She spent about $3,000 and walked out of the store with 10 bags," a source tells PEOPLE. "She got a bunch of candy and shirts for her kids and got a bunch of the couture lollipops to give to her backup dancers." Following the purchase, the store sent another $2,500 in merchandise to her room at the Mirage Villas, according to the source.

Oh the memories... perhaps the best was her stop in Vancouver where she left the stage only to return a half hour later telling people to "stop smoking weed and rock out with your cock out." Or that time she was in San Jose and yelled to the crowd, "What's Up Sacramento?" Both totally true stories.
