News and gossip about Britney Spears

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline are due back in the Los Angeles family court today for another round in their child custody case.
Britney plans to personally attend a hearing, a court spokesman has confirmed.
“It’s a hearing to discuss the status of Britney’s case,” said court rep Allan Parachini.
Asked if her ex-husband, Kevin Federline, would show up in person as well, his lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan replied, “Kevin has been at every important hearing. I view Tuesday as an important hearing.”
However, Kaplan says that his client is fine with more visits - but not right away.
“She needs to prove herself over time,” he explains. “We need to see that there is consistency and stability over a substantial amount of time, a slow ramping-up and not a spike.”
Pop princess presently has monitored visitation rights with her sons, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, several times per week (including Mother’s Day), but no overnight rights.
A report was completed by the ex-couple’s child custody evaluator in recent weeks, which could heavily influence future visitation arrangements.
Britney’s father, Jamie Spears, and his lawyer, Andrew Wallet, remain in legal control of her personal and financial affairs until an evaluation hearing on July 31. The actual trial for custody is not yet scheduled, but Kaplan has said in the past that it won’t be until sometime in September.
