Britney Spears Gym

Britney Spears has to dish out some serious cash to her legal team for their services, and she's got to pay hundreds of thousands right now! OK! Magazine says:

Britney Spears' conservators were back in court again on Thursday afternoon, where they discussed, among other things, the subject of payment.

Commissioner Goetz agreed to advance Andrew Wallet, Sam Ingham and attorneys for the conservators exactly half the money they are expected to bill for. Ingham, Brit's court-appointed attorney will be getting $10,000 a week through July 31.

Co-conservator Wallet gets $100,000 and the Luce Forward law firm will get $175,000 — and that's just for work done through March 31.

Clark Byam, another attorney, will get $22,500. Stacy Phillips, the lawyer repping Brit in the family law case, will get $75,000 — also for work through March 31."

Damn, that's a lot of cash. My mama always did tell me that I should have been a lawyer. Hell, maybe if I worked hard enough, I could have been over in Cali representing Miss Spears and racking up some serious celebrity cash. That would have been great. Oh, and I could have even had a little fun with it, I could have showed up there at some prestigious California law firm, wearing a leather jacket, tight jeans, and a bandana and I could have played the role of the rebel from the east coast, smokin' cigs in the office and putting them out on my higher-ups... but they couldn't say anything because I was like a legal genius.

I'd be like the legal version of Doogie Houser, only instead of being young and nerdy, I'd be normal-aged and bad ass! And hell, while I'm at it and I'm making parallels with myself and Neil Patrick Harris, I could throw on some leather assless chaps to match my leather jacket. Because, deep down, if Doogie had a voice while he was on his old show, he definitely would have incorporated the ole' assless chaps, I just know it!

Here's Britney at the gym earlier this week... could this mean we'll be seeing a nice, toned Britney of old within the next few months... because that would be insane. I couldn't say I ever thought I'd see that coming! So, only time will tell... stay tuned!
