Stop for a second and think about the most ridiculous thing that's ever happened to you. Then think about the most ridiculous thing that's ever happened to anyone you know, then combine the two and multiply them by 14 and you're still far from Britney Spears' life. The latest according to People:
Under her father's care and control, Britney Spears now lives a protected life, her access even to telephones strictly restricted.
So when the 27-year-old pop star managed to get a prepaid cell phone recently, her security team confiscated it from her purse while she was at a dance practice. Confronted, she revealed the phone was given to her by someone during a hotel stay.
And that person, she disclosed, got it from two men whom her father wants to keep permanently in the singer's troubled past: ex-manager Sam Lutfi and former boyfriend, paparazzo Adnan Ghalib.
Jamie Spears described the cellular phone incident in testimony Monday in a Los Angeles court as he sought to maintain a restraining order against Lutfi, whom Jamie has claimed harassed Britney and has sought to undermine Jamie's legal control over her life.

When you go from selling out arenas to having to do shady transactions involving a pre-paid cell phone, you know your life has gone to sh*t. I do think the story could be spun to her advantage and possibly into a movie. Former singer locked in the attic by her controlling father, only to bust her way out using a series of intelligent schemes no one thought she was capable of. I'd definitely see it at the dollar theater.
