The Drudgery of Being Britney's Dad

by celebuzz on Jun. 17, 2008 03:27 PM / 5 Comments

Jamie Spears banks $2,500 a month as a paid employee of wayward daughter Britney Spears, and the man earns every penny.

"I was with Britney on a near-twenty-four-hour basis to ensure her safety and well-being," say court documents petitioning for an increase. "During the times I was not with her, I was arranging, coordinating or managing her medical and legal affairs, including buying groceries and cooking supper...I arranged for Britney’s transport and security to go shopping."

It gets worse: "I spent a good deal of every day conversing with Britney."

Oh, the horrors!

More money might not help. Maybe Jamie needs to join a support group of parents whose situations are even worse than his own.

Quotables /

“Britney Spears' latest appeal to overturn the conservatorship her daddy Jamie Spears was awarded in February was rejected by a Los Angeles court.

Jamie still gets to call the shots now which is good because someone needs to keep an eye on her after all of her crazy issues.

So although Brit is probably really bummed, it's good someone's still looking out for her.”

Gabby Babble

“Conservator Jamie Spears is doing his job. His daughter Britney Spears was going to get together with a Danish designer named Claus Hjelmbak to create a line of shabby-chic Scandinavian furniture. Because, why not? When I think of Scandinavian furniture, I think of Britney. IKEA holds nothing for me anymore. I want Scandanavian furniture that I can neglect children on.

Anyway, Britney was specifically supposed to supervise a piece called "Woofy." "Woofy" would be a pink and blue plastic dog that you hide the electrical wires in your home in. Subtle. Seriously, just leave the wires out.

Jamie Spears decided to end the potential deal because he felt like Clause was just trying to get publicity via Britney. Oh?

Here's Britney Spears leaving Ballys Gym. Hopefully she didn't cause a ruckus this time. Intern Traci was bullshit, and she may seem adorable and sweet but she will reign fire down on your ass!”

Socialite Life

“Britney Spears' dad Jamie Spears gave up his private catering career to wrangle in his daughter's crazy. He decided to pay himself (from Britney's estate) $10,000 for lost wages. I can't remember the last time I saw her vagina, so, shit, why not make a mil? The dude earned it. "The Sun" reports:

"As a result of the responsibilities Mr Spears has assumed as Temporary Conservator of the Person and Temporary Co-Conservator of the Estate, he has been unable to continue his prior employment and thus no longer has the source of income he previously had in order to pay his expenses and bills."

I added pics of Britney going out to eat last night after returning from her reign of terror in Costa Rica. Mostly because they're new and, also, I get a lot of e-mails asking for posts that make readers feel like "a chicken wing on the buffet at Bonanza." What can I say? I'm a giver.”

The Superficial

“Britney Spears gets comfortable in her bikini at the Palms Place pool in Las Vegas on Friday.

The 26-year-old singer/actress was in Vegas to celebrate Father’s Day weekend with her dad, Jamie Spears. The mother-father duo attended the Cinevegas party with Palms hotel owner George Maloof and business associate Jon Gray.

Her ex-husband Kevin Federline was also in Vegas, first stopping off at the Strip House steakhouse and then the Prive club with his entourage.”
