Britney Spears is due in court today to deliver her second courtroom testimony. Calling the 18 year long #FreeBritney trial a complete and total legal mess would be a massive understatement.
Since her “incendiary” testimony on June 23, the past two weeks have seen major shifts in the pop icon’s legal team, placing the future of the conservatorship in great uncertainty. Today, the court will continue to move forward in hopes of selecting who will manage Spears’ finances, represent her moving forward, and if Spears’ conservators will be granted security as death threats have allegedly been frequent.
Spears has been vocally unhappy about her current representation led by court-appointed lawyer Samuel D. Ingham III who has yet to file a formal request to have the conservatorship ended.
Since Ingham’s request to resign on Sunday, the question of if Spears will be allowed to select her own attorney has been a point of public focus. Should she be given the opportunity, after the party is approved by the court, a petition could then be filed to end the conservatorship. This would then allow the James Spears’ and his co-conservator, the court appointed Jodi Montgomery’s representation to object, initiating another trial before the final decision can be made.
Ms. Spears repeatedly expressed that she wants termination without anymore “invasive” psychological evaluations. This may create further trouble as Spears may need to prove her mental stability in order to be granted power of attorney by Judge Brenda Penny.
So since Britney dropped that teary, million-word-a-minute, public courthouse bomb on June 23, how in the hell did it get this much worse?
The New Yorker releases an in-depth report on the extent of the #FreeBritney movement and Spears’ courtroom appearance by Ronan Farrow and Jia Tolentino that reveals the extent and scope of the conservatorship. Most notably, it was revealed that Spears called 911 the night before her testimony to report herself as a victim of conservatorship abuse.

That same night, former Hole frontwoman and noted Britney super-supporter Courtney Love releases a candid rendition of Spears’ autobiographical masterpiece “Lucky,” visibly shedding tears during the conclusion. Love joins Spears’ other contemporaries Christina Aguilera, Kevin Federline, Justin Timberlake, Paris Hilton, Mariah Carey, and Brandy in support of the #freebritney movement.
Larry Randolph (Aerosmith), Britney’s long-time manager resigns. In a letter he wrote to Spears’ co-conservators obtained by Deadline, it was revealed that Randolph hasn’t spoken to Spears in two and a half years and was told to take an indefinite work hiatus. It is unclear who will replace Randolph or if Spears will have any say in the matter.
It has been over 2 1/2 years since Britney and I last communicated, at which time she informed me she wanted to take an indefinite work hiatus. Earlier today, I became aware that Britney had been voicing her intention to officially retire. As you know, I have never been a part of the conservatorship nor its operations, so I am not privy to many of these details. I was originally hired at Britney’s request to help manage and assist her with her career. And as her manager, I believe it is in Britney’s best interest for me to resign from her team as my professional services are no longer needed.
Please accept this letter as my formal resignation. I will always be incredibly proud of what we accomplished over our 25 years together. I wish Britney all the health and happiness in the world, and I’ll be there for her if she ever needs me again, just as I always have been.
Larry Rudolph
Celebrity support for #freebritney continues to grow with Spears’ idol and mentor Madonna demanding that Britney’s conservators "give this woman her life back," and vowing to break Britney out of (an assumingly) figurative jail.
From Madonna’s Instagram story Via creator post: "Slavery was abolished so long ago! Death to the greedy patriarchy that has been doing this to women for centuries. This is a violation of human rights! Britney we coming to get you out of jail!"
Bessemer, the wealth management firm that has been appointed to help manage the conservatorship paper trail and Britney Spears’ finances pull out due to unchanged circumstances citing “Ms. Spears’ recent public criticisms of the conservatorship” as the primary reason. According to their statement, the firm had been told the conservatorship was voluntary. Though the removal of Bessemer has yet to be approved by the court, this would make James Spears and Jodi Montgomery the sole conservators and be detrimental to the #freebritney cause.
Samuel D. Ingham III, Spears’ lawyer who was appointed by the court in 2008 due to Spears’ lack of power of attorney, asks to withdraw from the case and releases a resignation letter from Loeb & Loeb, the litigation firm he had brought on last year. Spears has not been happy with her legal representation, revealing in court that she “didn’t know (she) could petition the conservatorship to be ended” and that Ingham advised her against it, “he said ‘it’s not good, I can’t let the public know anything they did to me[…]He told me I should keep it to myself, really.”

That same night, former Hole frontwoman and noted Britney super-supporter Courtney Love releases a candid rendition of Spears’ autobiographical masterpiece “Lucky,” visibly shedding tears during the conclusion. Love joins Spears’ other contemporaries Christina Aguilera, Kevin Federline, Justin Timberlake, Paris Hilton, Mariah Carey, and Brandy in support of the #freebritney movement.
Larry Randolph (Aerosmith), Britney’s long-time manager resigns. In a letter he wrote to Spears’ co-conservators obtained by Deadline, it was revealed that Randolph hasn’t spoken to Spears in two and a half years and was told to take an indefinite work hiatus. It is unclear who will replace Randolph or if Spears will have any say in the matter.
It has been over 2 1/2 years since Britney and I last communicated, at which time she informed me she wanted to take an indefinite work hiatus. Earlier today, I became aware that Britney had been voicing her intention to officially retire. As you know, I have never been a part of the conservatorship nor its operations, so I am not privy to many of these details. I was originally hired at Britney’s request to help manage and assist her with her career. And as her manager, I believe it is in Britney’s best interest for me to resign from her team as my professional services are no longer needed.
Please accept this letter as my formal resignation. I will always be incredibly proud of what we accomplished over our 25 years together. I wish Britney all the health and happiness in the world, and I’ll be there for her if she ever needs me again, just as I always have been.
Larry Rudolph
Celebrity support for #freebritney continues to grow with Spears’ idol and mentor Madonna demanding that Britney’s conservators "give this woman her life back," and vowing to break Britney out of (an assumingly) figurative jail.
From Madonna’s Instagram story Via creator post: "Slavery was abolished so long ago! Death to the greedy patriarchy that has been doing this to women for centuries. This is a violation of human rights! Britney we coming to get you out of jail!"
Bessemer, the wealth management firm that has been appointed to help manage the conservatorship paper trail and Britney Spears’ finances pull out due to unchanged circumstances citing “Ms. Spears’ recent public criticisms of the conservatorship” as the primary reason. According to their statement, the firm had been told the conservatorship was voluntary. Though the removal of Bessemer has yet to be approved by the court, this would make James Spears and Jodi Montgomery the sole conservators and be detrimental to the #freebritney cause.
Samuel D. Ingham III, Spears’ lawyer who was appointed by the court in 2008 due to Spears’ lack of power of attorney, asks to withdraw from the case and releases a resignation letter from Loeb & Loeb, the litigation firm he had brought on last year. Spears has not been happy with her legal representation, revealing in court that she “didn’t know (she) could petition the conservatorship to be ended” and that Ingham advised her against it, “he said ‘it’s not good, I can’t let the public know anything they did to me[…]He told me I should keep it to myself, really.”
