Not quite, but the new guy in Britney’s life treats her boys like his own kids. Jason Trawick, Britney’s current boyfriend, seems to really love her and everything that comes with her. Wishing her luck this time around!

David Letterman’s viewers were treated to a bikini clad Britney as she read off the top 10 list for the night – what would America be like with Britney as president? FREE PIE!

Britney’s back and controversy is not far behind. A couple of her crewmembers were arrested during her tour. The official word is that they are not directly employed by her and that her group does not tolerate that sort of thing. Ahuh.

Britney does really seem to be cleaning up her act, doesn’t she? On her web site, she sent out a Christmas greeting to all her fans, together with her sons. It was a really sweet picture of them, too.

Britney Spears will reportedly officially light the Christmas Tree at the Rockefeller Center this December third. The girl’s surely slowly coming back.

Madonna has pulled another coup. Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake will reportedly perform together with her during her Sticky & Sweet Tour stop at Dodger Stadium.

Let’s see if these are just rumors or if Madonna does deliver.

Check out this exclusive series of photos of Britney Spears preparing for her concert with Madonna.

Amazing. Britney’s back, bitch!

Britney Spears seems to be doing really well. She had a ‘family day’ with her mom and two boys.”Britney walked in with a big smile and introduced her mom to the staff,” says someone a the restaurant where they had lunch. “She looked gorgeous, and I have never seen her in a better mood. She was laughing the whole time she was here. Britney seemed to have the best time hanging out with her mom and friends.”

Guess she’s no longer a trainwreck! Wish Amy Winehouse would get her act together, too.

No, she’s not broke. But Britney Spears has asked the courts for permission to sell her home… because it would, uhm, make her a better parent.

The official request is for a “lower density, more quiet and less trafficked neighborhood, that is also more accessible to parks and recreation areas.”

Of course it helps when paparazzi aren’t parked outside the door.

Jamie Lynn Spears has given birth! She was surrounded by family, and seems excited about motherhood. Hopefully she’ll avoid some of the mistakes her sister made. She and fiance Casey Aldridge named their daughter Maddie Briann.

Britney’s dad banned her from using the car, and we’re starting to understand why. She got into another fender bender (her insurance company’s probably not yet even done processing the lst one, which happened in April). But she was nice about it, even inviting her new “victim” into her home to exchange information.

K-Fed’s attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, admits that Britney’s made “great progress” — on all fronts. She was given longer visitation hours, and even had 2 full days with them last week (May 8 and Mother’s Day). He even hinted that she and Federline are on better terms, although no reconciliation is in sight. They just want to be good parents for the kids. Now that’s good news. Britney’s meltdown is over, and she’s back where she’s needed most — in her boys’ life.

Britney returned to her hometown this weekend, her first trip back to Kentwood since her aunt’s funeral early last year. So why the sudden burst of nostalgia? Could be the popstar’s attending her sister’s baby shower.

Aaaw, dysfunctional family reunions, aren’t they the greatest?

Britney’s been required to pay almost $400,000 in legal fees — and that’s just for 3 months of service! In fact, Samuel Ingham, Spears’s court-appointed attorney, gets $10,000 a week,
Andrew Wallet, the co-conservator of Spears’s finances, will receive an advance of $100,000. (Wallet had not been paid since becoming involved last February.).

The firm which won Jamie Spears control of his daughter’s affairs will also be advanced $175,000, and a lawyer representing Britney’s brother Bryan Spears will get $22,500, while Stacy Phillips, Britney’s new divorce lawyer, will receive $75,000.

The singer’s father and Wallet remain in control of her life until a July 31 hearing.

Kevin Federline’s lawyer says he’s “happy” that Britney has gotten some of her act together. “Before, it wasn’t a question of what was going to happen, but when,” he says. But he says that reports that she’s fully recovered are premature.

“Jamie is doing a really good job,” he says, refering to her father. “There was a situation and that seems to be stabilized. Does that mean she’s cured? Of course not.”

Britney’s father is putting up several of the pop star’s cars for sale, explaining that the “cost of maintenance” was too high. According to his lawyers, this “will save substantial expense to the conservatorship estate.”

Her collection includes two white Mercedes (a SL65 and a CLK350), a white Mini Cooper convertible, and a black Audi.

We can only wonder if the money will actually go to Britney, or to you-know-who’s pockets.
But, maybe her Dad’s just thinking of a way to help her pay the huge legal bills

Oh, my. Britney Spears — who has about $100 million in assets — is stuck to a measly$1,500-a-week allowance which she has to get via a debit card.

What the hell? Okay, so her property’s under conservatorship, but what would merit cutting off her access to her own cash? (What — so her Dad can spend more of it?)

Well if that’s the case, Kevin’s got to shoulder some of the legal fees, her lawyer argues. After all, who can you hire with $1,500 a month?

K-Fed’s lawyer spills his guts in an exclusive interview with E! He talks about the deal that the pop star made in order to see her kids.

Britney’s supposedly appointed a new lawyer — and he claims that her civil rights have been violated.

Jon Eardley said: “These are issues of confinement. Very serious confinement. Not allowed to contact her friends. Not allowed to use the phone. Not allowed to come and go as you please. Bodyguards controlling you and so forth.”

However, legal experts say that Eardley’s legal grandstanding has no ground. In fact, the Superior Court has found that Spears “lacks the capacity” to choose her own counsel.
That’s one reason her former lawyer has dropped from the case.
