Britney Spears Says Sons Are ‘Special People’
 Courtesy Rolling Stone |
In a tumultuous year that saw them bounced from home to home during a protracted custody dispute, Sean Preston, 3, and Jayden James Federline, 2, had at least one constant in their lives — each other. So says their mom, Britney Spears, in the cover story for the Nov. 28 issue of Rolling Stone magazine. In the interview, Britney reveals that the demise of her marriage to rapper Kevin Federline came as a shock. "I didn’t think my husband was gonna leave me," she explains. "Otherwise, I’d be with my babies 24/7…But since they’re almost like twins, they both take care of each other." Musing that both Sean and Jayden take after her, Britney adds "they don’t look like their father at all."
Currently, Britney sees the boys three days per week with one overnight stay. "Every time they come to visit me, I think about how they’re such special people," she says. That Sean and Jayden are both enrolled in preschool already is surreal for the 26-year-old pop star.
"I went there to pick them up on Friday, and seeing them in their little classroom and seeing Jayden being bad or not listening? It’s like, those are mine, and it’s just crazy, you know what I mean? And the things that are coming out of their mouths right now — they’re learning so much, and it’s new, and you never know what they’re going to say, and they’re so smart yet so innocent."
That innocence is apparent when Britney reveals that the boys are "obsessed with monsters," and they often make mom disprove their existence! "Every night we look outside, and we have to show them that there’s no monsters out there," Britney explains. "It’s dark outside, but there’s nothin’ out there, you know?"
Britney’s new album Circus is in stores on Britney’s 27th birthday, December 2nd.

This is the perfect forum to ask this… when Jayden James was born, for the first month or so the media had the impression that he was actually called something else. I remember the initials of the alternative name matched Sean Preston’s, so the first name started with an S, the second with a P…
The reason I ask is I am organising a surprise baby shower for a friend and I want to do some celebrity baby trivia. It is bugging me that I can’t remember because I remember thinking at the time the name wasn’t that bad…Could it be Spencer something???
Anyhoo, if anyone can remember that would be great. please excuse the spelling here – I am Australian, we spell some words differently
Cheers

I’m glad she’s doing better and she looks great. For some reason I thought she left Kevin. Anyways the boys do resemble her a lot and Jayden is a Britney mini-me while Sean is a mix of both imo. It’s cute how she describes the monster story
November 25th, 2008 at 8:29 pm
Eh, other quotes from the article with regard to what she says about the boys and Kevin rubs me the wrong way. They really picked out the most innocuous, favorable quotes here.
Glad she’s back on track, but given what I’ve read, I don’t see it lasting if her dad loses conservatorship over her. It’s a shame, since she looks great and seems like she’s getting her priorities in order. She doesn’t seem to view it that way, though.
While the boys do look tons like her, it comes off badly to say they’re nothing like their father when she makes it pretty clear she’s not thrilled with him.
November 25th, 2008 at 8:33 pm
Yeah! I thought she left Kevin too! I don’t understand how she was shocked if she was the one who filed for divorce!
And that’s really sweet about the boys always having each other!
November 25th, 2008 at 8:40 pm
Nella, she did leave Kevin…or at least she was the one who filed for divorce and he found out about it via text message while on Much Music. I don’t think the leavee normally is the one who files for divorce. Maybe she meant it in more of a emotional sense…like he emotionally abandoned her. He didn’t seem very present after she had both boys so perhaps that’s what she meant?
Anyway, I’m really glad she is doing better and I hope she realises that all these restraints she has are to help her. I don’t think she’s quite there yet, but she’s making leaps and bounds and is on her way to being back to her old self. I can’t wait for her new CD!
November 25th, 2008 at 8:49 pm
I really wanted to pull for her but this is an awful interview. I’m hoping she was just nervous though considering her experience I highly doubt that’s the case. Perhaps she should have put as much effort into parenting as she did on her new look? Thank god their father and family seem to have the boys best interests at heart.
November 25th, 2008 at 8:58 pm
I feel she is a bit bitter about Kevin. You left out the part where she says Sean uses the F-word and than she blames Kevin for it!
I am glad she is doing better and I think it’s so sad to hear children “visit” their parents. Not just in this case but in every case.
November 25th, 2008 at 8:59 pm
I feel kind of bad for Kevin – if it wasn’t for him being an adult and not taking complete advantage of her breakdown, she would probably still be trying to get any time with the boys at all! And then to look down on him as a parent during one of her first interviews? That’s low. Neither of them are perfect parents, after all.
I hope for the boys’ sake she does the growing up she obviously still needs to do.
November 25th, 2008 at 9:13 pm
in the whole interview it says her son uses the “f” word?????
are you fricken serious????
oh my my my!
November 25th, 2008 at 9:26 pm
Gigi, what is the big deal? Kevin has been a bad influence on the kids too. maybe she was saying something that the kids do that she does not like, that kevin has taught them. Kevin does have a reputation of cursing alot. So I am sure she is really annoyed he is using those wored around his kids. Plus this was an interview with Rolling Stone, not a kiddie magazine.
November 25th, 2008 at 9:36 pm
Bela: Unless you know Kevin personally you don’t know what kind of influence he is on the kids.
And I don’t care how annoyed she is with Kevin. It is not good for the children for their parents to air their grievences with one another in public, especially not in print. Good for Kevin for taking the high road and never resorting to trashing Britney to the media. Sad that Britney refused to do the same.
November 25th, 2008 at 9:40 pm
wow. just wow.
the boys looking out for each other because they’re pretty much twins… twins still need decent parenting. huh?!
i hope those boys stay with their father for a lot longer. she is just a big kid.
November 25th, 2008 at 9:43 pm
I’m a teacher, and I bristled a little at her comment that she watched her son at preschool get in trouble for not listening.
I wondered what more there was to that quote. Why bring that up Britney? Is it something she’s concerned about? Or was she annoyed that the teacher reprimanded her son? I couldn’t quite tell from the quote.

awwww…. her quote about the monsters reminds me of when my mom had to PROVE to me that there were no monsters under the bed! She would take a broom and show me there was nothing! haha I was so scared I had trouble getting out of bed and to the restroom in the middle of the night! haha
November 25th, 2008 at 11:06 pm
I’m disappointed by this interview but mainly because I have always rooted for Britney and wanted to see her get her life together. I have always rooted for her just as another Mother, not as a fan of her music. She said that she did not think her husband would leave her or she would be with her kids 24/7. Um… no. She would be with her kids 24/7 if she acted like a responsible parent and took adequate care of them. She’s laying the blame elsewhere rather than accepting responsibility for her actions. I could have understood if she said something along the lines of she didn’t anticipate her marriage ending and that really took a toll on her and her emotional health suffered thereby affecting her being with her kids 24/7 due to her mental state. I mean not verbatim but you get the point, just accept some responsibility. And to say Kevin left her seems a bit strange when there was video of him getting the text that she filed for divorce while he was being interviewed saying how much he loved her. That said I’m not in any way saying that he was husband of the year. I’m just not sure why she’s pointing the finger at him. Also saying he has taught them bad words like stupid or the F word. Stupid is a word that we as people generally use without thinking sometimes, like say for example an infomercial for some useless product that leaves you scratching your head you may say, “Hm that’s stupid.” Or you see someone make a dangerous maneuver while driving like turn in front of someone and you say out loud without thinking, “That was stupid” I mean that word I can understand, of course don’t call PEOPLE stupid. Now the F word, not cool. That being said I do think she needs to have some respect for the father of her children who also stepped in and took care of them when she couldn’t. The man who has kept his mouth SHUT during all of this and has been an advocate of the boys having a relationship with Britney, even taking them to see her in rehab. The full article says she had a brutal custody battle but I don’t agree at least from what we the public could see. Kevin has been a class act when it comes to details of his marriage with Britney and taking care of the boys. She needs to show him respect and also not air dirty laundry and try to make him appear negative in media by calling into question his parenting. It’s just not cool especially when he has not done that to her and I’m sure there are TONS of stories he could share.. and be paid for. As far as what she says about the kids at school and monsters, I thought that was cute. When she said she watched Jayden get in trouble for not listening I do think it was meant in a sweet way. Like I go to my sons school early to watch him on the playground for recess right before school lets out. It’s fun to watch them in their environment when you are not right there. You know if you see your child get scolded, for typical kid behavior, you kind of just laugh to yourself and think, “That’s my boy/girl!” and just enjoy watching them be, them and their little personalities. I think that is all that was meant about him getting scolded, I didn’t take it as a complaint.
Anyway the more she talks the more I question how on track she really is or if she has truly taken responsibility for her actions. I know mental health issues may have played a factor and I don’t dismiss that but at least be honest and accepting. I still root for her as a Mother myself and hope she can truly truly get it together and be the best Mommy to those two adorable boys. The article also comments on the security team her Dad hired.. that Britney pays for. I thought that last part about her paying for it was pretty nasty as it implies some greed or money issues. I totally commend and respect her Dad for giving up his life and his business to take care of his daughter. I doubt it’s financially motivated as no money in the world is worth dealing with all of the craziness that surrounds Britney lol.

STOP THE JUDGING.
“Perhaps she should have put as much effort into parenting as she did on her new look? Thank god their father and family seem to have the boys best interests at heart.” your knowledge of this is based on what?
and this is all from reading selections from an interview that is itself most likely edited.
“the boys looking out for each other because they’re pretty much twins… twins still need decent parenting. huh?!”
how does that mean they don;t need parenting? i think she just means they are close in age, it’s nice they have each other
November 25th, 2008 at 11:13 pm
Olivia, you say unless you know kevin dont say those things. What gives us rights to sit here and say that about Brit? Im so sick of comments like these.. Why don’t we take the time and use it to parent our own kids, and let them do what they do with their kids!
November 25th, 2008 at 11:47 pm
I thought the interview would be more introspective but she comes across as blaming everyone else (except herself) for her situation. She still seems incredibly immature. Instead of taking jabs at Kevin and her father she should be thanking them. Hopefully Kevin won’t stoop to her level.
November 26th, 2008 at 12:02 am
yes bela….its a HUGE deal if a 3 year old child is using the “f” word.
no matter if the parents are celebrity or not, or whatever their custodial situation….its unnacceptable!
November 26th, 2008 at 12:17 am
What in the world makes anyone think that Britney’s going to change now? I think people forget that all celebrities aren’t “normal” people as we make them out to be. The child stars especially are surreal.
She’s pointing the finger at Kevin here, and I note along with everyone else that he’s barely said anything about the custody battle or anything unfavorable about Britney to the press.
November 26th, 2008 at 12:21 am
she seems so detached when she talks about her sons, it’s weird
November 26th, 2008 at 12:30 am
I have to say I agree with heather. Stop judging her, when you don’t know any more about her situation than anyone else. The only people who REALLY know that situation are the people involved. I do believe she is getting her life back on track, but unfortunately people will always find something to tear her down about. That’s just how it is. I for one, am still rooting for her and disagree with most of the negative comments here. But, that’s just my personal opinion.
November 26th, 2008 at 12:37 am
I don’t think they learned that word from their dad since they are raised by Kevin’s nanny and bodyguard.
November 26th, 2008 at 1:08 am
I think what Britney meant by “Otherwise I’d be with my babies 24/7″ is that, if she and Kevin had stayed married, there wouldn’t have been any custody battle. The boys simply would have lived in one house with both their parents.
Assuming Kevin would have showed the maturity he is showing now if they’d stayed married, the boys probably wouldn’t have been taken from Britney as Kevin would be living with her and would be able to care for them.
Anyway, it’s obvious to me that she loves those little boys very much. Yes, some of her comments were less than desirable, but it takes time to get back on the right track when you have a mental illness that spiraled out of control.
Obviously she’s still in recovery mode. Stay strong, Britney! I know it must be hard, but you can do it, girl!
November 26th, 2008 at 1:10 am
Veronica- ITA! I also want to point out that sometimes things don’t translate very well to paper. Therefore, some of what she said may have sounded totally different when she said it to the interviewer than it does on paper.
For example, in Brad Pitt’s recent Oprah interview, he said, in regards to having more kids, “Why should I stop?” That sounded a little “off” on paper, but if you listen to the actual interview, he actually said it in a very sweet, endearing way.
November 26th, 2008 at 1:16 am
“Olivia, you say unless you know kevin dont say those things. What gives us rights to sit here and say that about Brit?”
Asheleigh: When did I claim to have inside information into Britney’s life? When did any of the posters on this board? We have expressed disgust with her insulting the father of her children in print. That’s totally different from someone claiming to know that Kevin is a bad influence. We are going on Britney’s own words. Those who are insulting Kevin are just making assumptions. I don’t know what kind of parent either is. But what I do know is that Kevin had plenty of chances to not only trash Britney in print but to also keep her out of her childrens’ lives. Instead he has stayed quiet, never badmouthed her in public/print and given her chance after chance to still be involved in her children’s lives. Good for him. It’s unfortunate that Britney doesn’t seem to realize that insulting Kevin in print does nothing to promote the well-being of her children.
November 26th, 2008 at 1:26 am
This interview proves that while her physical appearance has improved, she still has mental problems. There’s nothing cool about a child not listening to their teacher….only young minded mothers think it’s “cool” for their kids to act out. I also can’t believe she’s judging Kevin’s parenting skills, when the whole world has SEEN what she’s put her boys through.
November 26th, 2008 at 1:50 am
I love britney, and glad to see her doing better, but this interview makes her seem so bitter towards kevin. Kevin has never talked about her, even when she was shaving her head and showing her privates, he also has custody of the kids and always made it clear he wanted britney in the picture. Of all the nice things she could say about her kids, she has to say they learned cursing from him. How do you know they didn’t hear it in school or from other kids. Than she goes on to say she sees no kevin in their looks. Well jayden is her mini me, but sean is a mix of both britney and kevin, you can see a lot of kevin in sean’s face. I hope the minute her dad isn’t in charge of her, she doesn’t go back to her old ways, because recently she has said her life is boring, it’s worse than prison, etc, makes me think she misses partying and all that. Sean and jayden are two of the cutest boys ever, and I’ve always been a britney fan, so hope she continues to do ok.
November 26th, 2008 at 1:56 am
icky interview. doesn’t seem like she’s accepting any responsibility. and, a little weird to hear someone say that their kids learned the F word from their dad…when there are a hundred of videos of her screaming that word at the paps with her kids in the backseat of her car. Maybe she doesn’t remember any of this? Maybe her interview is so airy and weird b/c she’s medicated? Who knows.
November 26th, 2008 at 2:10 am
How many toddlers do you know that run around not repeating what they hear? How many two or three year olds always do what their teachers and parents tell them? Britney and Kevin are not the only people around those boys, there’s bodyguards, nannies, other family members…Not to mention, television. Kids say and do thing they shouldn’t. Have my kids gotten in trouble at daycare? yes, but I sat them down and explained things to them. My three and four year old now know the difference between adult words and big boy words, after having them blurt out stuff they’re not supposed to. I don’t even know why this was even posted, since a lot of people stil want to crucify her.
November 26th, 2008 at 3:06 am
Since when has Britney been perfect? Uhhh never. That’s why I like her! She went through hard time and got out on TOP and of course she’s still struggling, I’m sure… but how will she ever get better with all this judging? People are making it seem like Kevin is some godsend. He isn’t. He goes to Vegas ALL the time, he smokes weeds, he’s not a godsend. At least she holds a kid in a few photos… he doesn’t. You mainly see them being held by the nanny.
November 26th, 2008 at 3:37 am
I’m glad she’s been able to turn things around and get back on the right path.
However, I think it’s very immature to be talking poorly of her childrens’ father in such a public manner. Her boys will grow up one day and be able to read all about it. She should take the high road (like Kevin has) and only make positive comments.
I have an 8yo from a previous relationship. He’s been a dead beat Dad, in and out of her life since I left him when she was 2. I’ve never bad mouthed him in front of her yet even at 8 she knows what kind of person he is and chooses not to see him. Kids are smart and can pick up on things all on their own.
November 26th, 2008 at 4:52 am
Wow, that’s a great cover shot of her!
November 26th, 2008 at 5:02 am
whats wrong with you people!!! back off the poor girl, its been well reported kevin left her alone alot ofter jadens birth he also spent alot of her money maybe she got tired of it. the press helped go crazy as in lost her mind she will be on meds for th rest of her life, she was a good mother with sean, h never left her side, she glowed around him but she has gone through a very tough time, bad people people got in her life and helped distroy her. you sit up there judgeing…have you ever ever even had a quater of the pressure she has put up with, had two babies in two two years, watched your marrige fall apart, have a breakdown, helped to be driven mad, drugged by your managers, lost your babies had every one judge you, hate on you, wish for bad things for you…..then been held against your will at a medical center then loose all your rights as an adult….no i thought not so before you post a nasty comment just think how you would feel, mothers are supposed to stick together.
November 26th, 2008 at 7:27 am
To all you people making out Kevin to be some kind of Saint then think again. It was in their pre-nup that Kevin NOT ALLOWED to do any interviews about her if they divorced. Also, Kevin is responsible for Sean saying the F word, not Britney! – like she said. The man doesn’t have a job yet he has two nannies raising his kids. He gets close to $20,000 per month in child support so if he didn’t have full custody of his kids then he wouldn’t get that. It seems like the only reason he wanted custody of his kids was so he could live off them. He never requested custody of his kids with Shar Jackson. Some of you can be so ignorant sometimes. Also, just because Britney was the one that filed for divorce – it doesn’t mean Kevin didn’t leave her before that and she was the one that actually submitted the divorce papers first.
November 26th, 2008 at 7:37 am
Hi, just struck me from this aritcle that the boys are afraid of monsters because she was like a monster to them with her crazy ass behaviour–she has to be kiddin herself if she thinks this has not affected them — hope she is changin for the good-these kids have been thru alot because of her crazy ass self indulgent behavious
November 26th, 2008 at 7:49 am
Hmmm, try as I might, I can’t like Kevin. And sometimes I really want to because it appears as though he might be a different person than the one who was married to Britney. I don’t like this whole ‘I’m so angelic and I’ll take the high road’ thing with Kevin. And I’m not really a Britney fan so it’s not that I’m doing the fan thing and taking sides here. Essentially, I feel sorry for two beautiful little boys who have two parents who have both, at times, displayed spectacularly immature behaviour. I hope that both parents grow up to be honest. Britney still has some stuff to work through, and if Kevin is allowing his children to say the f word, he obviously has stuff to think about too.
Best wishes to all, but I think this saga has a few more stories to run on yet.
November 26th, 2008 at 8:27 am
J, you said everything I wanted to say but I couldn’t think how to phrase it properly lol. I’ve often wondered if the money was a motivating factor in the custody of these children. It’s sad, and if it’s true, I can totally understand the boiling anger Britney must have. Sure, she’s had her problems, but she’s worked for her money, which is the only financial support her children have. Kevin, well, he got a pretty sweet deal out of all this and I bet he knows it. Honestly, I just find it really uncomfortable that people buy into the image that Kevin tries to portray, when all it really is is a man who lives off of his wife’s money and is happy to do so. If there were not massive sums of money involved in this situation, I think we would see a whole other side of both parents.
November 26th, 2008 at 9:19 am
I agree with much of what has been posted already:
Heather P: She said that she did not think her husband would leave her or she would be with her kids 24/7. Um… no. She would be with her kids 24/7 if she acted like a responsible parent and took adequate care of them. She’s laying the blame elsewhere rather than accepting responsibility for her actions.
So true!
cb: and, a little weird to hear someone say that their kids learned the F word from their dad…when there are a hundred of videos of her screaming that word at the paps with her kids in the backseat of her car.
Yes!
h williams: the press helped go crazy as in lost her mind she will be on meds for the rest of her life.
I think she has lost her mind too – with the help of a sick press and a mother with bad judgment. Below is a quote from an interview with Lynne Spears:
“[Lynne] Spears said she first felt she was losing control in 1999 when Britney, then 17, appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine in her underwear. She said the magazine photographer had taken Britney into her bedroom alone during the shoot.”
I read elsewhere that during this photo shoot, Lynn Spears felt it wasn’t right for her daughter to be alone in her underwear with this photographer, but didn’t know better at the time to stop it. Imagine that? Being a 17-year-old and having this happen- This kind of thing could really mess with the mind- along with countless other exploitations. I think Britney has a long way to go still. In many ways, she never emotionally developed beyond the age of about 10.
November 26th, 2008 at 10:26 am
I just wanted to mention that there is also a video clip out there of that 90 minute special she did with MTV (maybe, I can’t remember who did it) and she comes across as not really getting how serious her behavior was in the past. She does come across as unwilling to accept responsibility for her actions. To me these interviews just show that she still has a long way to go. Not really surprising though since she seemed to have had a pretty bad breakdown. I would think it’s a long slow process of recovery and hopefully she will get there little by little.
November 26th, 2008 at 10:28 am
Yeah, this interview doesn’t exactly make you feel like she’s ready to be Mom of the Year. She still seems pretty immature to me…
November 26th, 2008 at 11:01 am
This is what you get when you have “yes” ppl. around you your whole life! She is NOT presenting herself to be a good mother or a mother who looks out for her kids. As a mom, we all hear that consistency is the rule of thumb, I know with my two boys’- words like “stupid”, “hate”, etc. come up all the time, we are CONSTANTLY reminding the boys’ that those are not words we use in our household and then go on and explain to them(over and over and over again) why they are not good but hurtful words. If as a parent you are NOT reminding your children of that fact and even laughing or showing them in some other way that it is “acceptable” for them to say such things and mis-behave at school, you are TOTALLY sending the wrong message! To me, she may be a mother in the “biological” sense, but in every other sense- looking out for, re-directing, being there, being consistent, positive parenting/ reinforcement, being a positive role model to your children, etc. she obviously is NOT there and unfortunately Sean & Jayden will also grow up with an elitist sense of entitlement due to her poor parenting skills and not being able to set up any sort of boundaries, consequences, etc. Babies/Kids are not just something you have to “dress-up” in nice clothes and parade around, they are little ppl. looking to you- the parent to guide them down the right path through positive, disciplined, consistent parenting- something this woman obviously knows nothing about!
Sad…
November 26th, 2008 at 11:12 am
No matter how many interviews that I get weird vibes from, I will always think that she’s a better parent than her ex. Does anyone remember that he dumped his pregnant wife when she was “very pregnant” to move on to Britney? Father of the Year, right there. I just know that we seem to see lots of pictures of Kevin golfing, yet see his kids with their nannies quite often
November 26th, 2008 at 11:38 am
J — Kevin does indeed have a job and has for well over a year (the entire time that he’s been raising his sons on his own). He’s been working as a DJ. He’s also made money doing spots in commercials and TV shows…
Again — He never requested custody of his children with Shar because the two of them happily SHARE custody of their children together. Watch any interview of Shar Jackson talking about Kevin. She refers to him as a wonderful father and a great person, saying that their relationship just didn’t work out because they weren’t right for each other.
I think the point here is that this entire interview is in poor taste. It is a well known fact that she is the one who called off the marriage and she should be thankful that Kevin was there for her children when she was not.
It sounds like she’s incredibly bitter — she needs to just learn to own up to her mistakes.
As for SP saying the F word. Well, it happens. The less attention paid to it the less likely it is to continue. I’m not sure that’s worse than the photos from last year of Jayden playing with Britney’s cigarette’s. It’s pretty clear that they’ve both had some negative influence on their children.
November 26th, 2008 at 11:41 am
Natasha — I somehow don’t think that Britney setting up camp with a married man whose wife was expecting a baby makes her any better a person than him…
just saying.
November 26th, 2008 at 11:58 am
I’m irritated by this article too. She’s playing a victim and placing all the blame on other people, most notably, Kevin. The information she is giving is disrespectful and presumptive. Was it really necessary to say that the children say the F word? Was it really necessary to say that they learned it from their father? Is that even true? As erradic as she has been, I wouldn’t doubt some choice words fly out of her mouth on occasion as well.
She is putting information out there that she cannot take back, and her boys will see this someday.
November 26th, 2008 at 12:08 pm
Well of course those boys have had to take care of each other. In a time of bonding with their mother, she sure didn’t seem to be around or in her right mind. I feel sorry for both those kids.
November 26th, 2008 at 12:20 pm
Those of you who are vehemently defending Britney (and lecturing those of us who have a problem with this interview about how judgemental we are) are totally missing the point. No one is crucifying her. No one is saying she’s a horrible mother. And on the flip side, no one is saying that Kevin is a wonderful parent or a saint or anything.
What we are saying is this: Kevin has never trashed her to the press. Good for him, he did the right thing in that regard. She should extend the same courtesy to him, not for his sake but for the sake of the children.
It’s unbelievable to me that no one can even express a hint of a problem with anything Britney does, no matter how inappropriate it might be, without a group of posters jumping all over that person and lecturing them. I find it even more unbelievable that most of the time while a poster is lecturing others about not being negative towards Britney and how we shouldn’t jump to conclusions they are making snide remarks about Kevin and jumping to huge conclusions about him. You’re invalidating your own argument by insulting him while lecturing others about not insulting Britney.

J-
Interesting that you say that about him not requesting custody of his kids with Shar. Why should he? He’s a father to those kids and Shar seems perfectly capable of taking care of her kids. Shar praises Kevin all the time so obviously their custody agreement is working out.
Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case with SP and Jayden. Britney’s had a rollercoaster of a year and it’s probably better for the boys to be away from that.
November 26th, 2008 at 12:38 pm
Shar Jackson was getting child support from Kevin after he left her. But who do you think was paying for it? Of course it was Brit, he has no money to give her! So of course she is not going to talk bad about him! He was not working at the time, so Brit was paying for everying, she was supporting her family and his!
November 26th, 2008 at 12:50 pm
It’s obvious that Britney Spears is mentally much younger than 26. She needs to learn what it is to be a mature role model for her sons but she has a long way to go. Kudos to Mr. Spears as well as Kevin for acting like adults, at least when it comes to the best interest of the children.
November 26th, 2008 at 12:59 pm
olivia I never said you did. Isaid you said, don’t say anything about kevin b/c we don’t know whats true. Im saying do the same about brit. We don’t know how she really is.
All these questions had to be given to britneys “people” weeks before. So im guessing there is more questions, not just about kevin and the kids.
November 26th, 2008 at 12:59 pm
I can’t understand why is everyone being so bitter about her. She’s back on the cover of Rolling Stones which means she’s OFFICIALLY back.
She’s talking about her sons and her love for them, showing how she cares and how she’s back on track. Where is are the negativity coming from? That she is bitter towards Kev? Well, they’re divorced and fought over kids, it probably is going to take a while for them to be amicable again.
I don’t understand people, Im so happy for her getting her life back and people still say they don’t like what she said? If you look for flaws you’re definitely going to find them!
November 26th, 2008 at 1:03 pm
Wow it’s so hard to like Britney after reading the interview. She should be counting her blessings instead of talking so bitterly about the father of her children. Maybe Kevin was a horrible husband but everything points to him being a good father. Is she really this narcissistic? She looks nice but true beauty is on the inside. Perhaps no one ever taught her that. Shame on her.
November 26th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
Sean uses the f-word, how am I not surprised…:(
Ubnfortunately Brit’s just turning into a better looking version of my neioghbor, whose oldest son (now 13) and youngest son (now almost
were hellions as tykes, when they were Sean & Jayden’s ages. (The 8 yr old boy still swears like a sailor, dropping f-bombs constantly, which is ridiculous.)
I just hope Brit’s sons don’t turn out that bratty, but only time will tell.
November 26th, 2008 at 1:15 pm
Well said Grace. Some people have a skewed view of the world it appears…
November 26th, 2008 at 1:20 pm
It honestly seems like most of the commenters defending her are very young. Nobody is crucifying her at all – if they were, the comments would be much, much worse! And no one is saying Kevin is a saint, either – just that, at least when it comes to speaking to the press, Kevin comes off better because he never said a bad word about her – and neither did his attorney! And as for the “he isn’t allowed” that may be true, but if Kevin truly wanted to hurt her and take advantage of her, they would still be in court, and Kevin would be insisting that Britney not see the boys at all. And you know what? She probably wouldn’t be, at least not nearly as much as she does.
There was really no reason at all for her to say anything at all about Kevin to the press. Little kids say bad words, but to insist that it “must” come their father is so ridiculously childish, to me it really does seem like this whole thing has not changed her nearly as much as it should have.
November 26th, 2008 at 1:24 pm
So the point Britney is trying to make in this interview is: Kevin is a bad example to the childern? Yeah right.
Which parent used booze, drugs and tranquilaizers in front of her kids? Which parent partied all night long and let herself be snapped by the paparazzi without panties under her skirt? Which parent turned at least at one occacion completely hysterical in front of her kids, kept them hostidge in her house and treathend to kill herself in front of them? Which parent has been in rehab and a psychic ward twice while the childern were still in their infancy? Which parent has been granted full custody of the childern?
November 26th, 2008 at 1:26 pm
No wonder Britney can’t believe those little people are hers: she was in purple haze all the time!
November 26th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
I have to say, without judging, just my view, from what I’ve heard about Kevin and seen in interviews and on TV etc, he doesn’t seem a very good person although he may love his kids- he didn’t seem to be there for most of the time when Britney had her sons and it just seems he is in it for the money. Of course, that may be wrong, but from why Britney’s had a breakdown, I do not blame her.
Good for her that she’s getting better and I pray to god, she gets her boys back (full custody)
November 26th, 2008 at 2:02 pm
I truly don’t think Britney takes responsibility for her past actions and that is sad. I was pulling for her (still am) but I agree this interview seems odd to me. I also think it’s too soon for this “comeback” of hers. I still think she needs time but the fact that she’s trying to fight her father again to regain control just goes to show that she probably sees nothing wrong with her past actions and why her family needed to step in.
I also fear that she’s going to spiral out of control again.
I always hated when Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards went back and forth with their bitterness about each other to the media and Britney doing it to Kevin is no better.
And surely Kevin is no saint when it comes to being a father or even just a man…but it’s about being the bigger and better person. When you have children the worst thing you can do as a parent is to belittle the other parent. And sure Sean and Jayden are too little right now to read these interviews but one day they will be old enough to understand. Sometimes some things are better left unsaid (and kept to yourself).
As far as Sean and Jayden using the “F” word. I’m not bothered by it. For one my 3yr old nephew has whipped out the word here and there. Is it nice? absolutely not. Does he get in trouble? of course! Is he soley to blame? hell no! No parent is perfect and yes folks sometimes slip up in front of their kids and say bad words. It doesn’t make them bad people it makes them human. I wonder what Britney does when her sons use bad language. Does she laugh and giggle or does she discipline them??
Bottom line is that neither Britney or Kevin are the most responsible people to have birthed children but they’re not the worst either. They both are to blame for many of their actions and they both need to take responsibility for it but turning around and blaming one another publicly is NOT the way to do it.
I just hope both parties can grow up and see that their actions have consequences and lets hope Jayden and Sean come out of it alright.
November 26th, 2008 at 2:02 pm
“mothers are supposed to stick together.”
No, not at the expense of the children. Not if that includes excusing everything a mother does no matter how harmful it may be to their child. Not if it means blindly agreeing with everything another mother does simply because they are of the same gender that we are. I think in the year 2008 we can get beyond that sexist idea that women must always agree with other women just because we are of the same gender. That line of thinking has been used to keep women quiet and “in their place” for far too long. I refuse to go along with the notion that women cannot express constructive criticism about one another.
November 26th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
“olivia I never said you did. Isaid you said, don’t say anything about kevin b/c we don’t know whats true. Im saying do the same about brit. We don’t know how she really is.”
Ashleigh: No I didn’t. I said that the comments of a previous poster about him being a bad influence was something she couldn’t know for sure.
The difference between saying that Kevin is a bad influence and that Britney shouldn’t say bad things about Kevin in public is that with Kevin we don’t know what kind of influence he is. The comments on here about Britney are not speculation, they are based on her own words from an interview. She said those words. We are not making assumptions that she badmouths Kevin, we are reading her own words where she is doing that. The comments about Kevin are all speculation. The comments about Britney trashing Kevin are not based on speculation.
November 26th, 2008 at 2:16 pm
Goodness!!! Things are really intense on here and I think there are several people on here taking this WAY too personal!
I hope that everyone involved in the boy’s life, will come together for the sake of the kids.
Another thing, just look at how focused every celeb blog/radio station, etc. is on Britney’s appearance-my goodness, even if someone does not have any sort of mental health issues, that right there is enough to drive a person insane..JMO
November 26th, 2008 at 2:39 pm
The more I think about it, the more I think Kevin’s behaviour, contrary to what I initially thought, hasn’t changed a whole lot since he and Britney split. When they were together, he was backed by her financially and apparently went off and did his own thing. Now they’ve split up and he has full custody (hence more child support), nannies raise the boys and he goes off and does his own thing. And I’m sorry, but I find Shar’s comments somewhat disingenuous. She and her children (and not just the ones she has with Kevin) have very much benefitted financially and otherwise from the Spears connection, which makes me feel that she’s more likely to praise Kevin’s parenting skills because he supports her financially by way of Britney. I’m not saying it didn’t cut like a knife when he left her (what a stand up father, leaving his lady when she was pregnant), but she’s done okay out of it since then.
I suppose I just find Britney more honest. Kevin has an image that doesn’t wash with me, because very little has changed with him. Britney went through some bad stuff, and her role had to change, but Kevin’s hasn’t. I apologise if I’m wrong, but to applaud Kevin for his parenting skills, you’d think people would look a bit further below the surface. I see a man who takes money from his ex-wife to raise children, who then employs people to raise them for him. Again, I apologise if I’m wrong, but that’s the impression I’ve got. However the children are benefitting or not benefitting from the situation as it is now, I fail to see how either parent is doing good right now, more specifically Kevin though, as he has the chance to be a full-time carer to the boys.
Britney, who I am, btw, no fan of, is seemingly trying to change things for her and her boys, no matter what the impression may come off in interviews. I don’t see how Kevin has made any changes since the boys were born.
November 26th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
I’m really glad to see her doing better. I hope she keeps it up for the sake of her kids. raising kids in the spot light can be overwhelming. I’ve prayed for her. It would have been nice if her marriage was intact. but you can’t force something that isn’t going to work….
November 26th, 2008 at 3:29 pm
God bless her. I just really hope she continues to grow up and stay on top of her mental health. Fame is such a horrible thing for some people…she needs to get away from Hollywood and that celebrity lifestyle for a good long while!
I was so surprised that she was mad with her father for doing what a father should do…step up to the plate and save your child (like Kevin had to do) I hope she stays on track and realizes that what her family did was ultimately for her best. Can you image where she’d be if her manager that Sam guy and that Anan dude or her “cousin” Ally were still her influences? Those people alone should remind her that her judgment of the people around her were skewed.
November 26th, 2008 at 3:52 pm
T, I completely agree with you. Unfortunately, just from the tone of this interview and that 90 second clip of her upcoming documentary, I still don’t think Britney has taken any real responsibility for her action. She likens her life to being in prison (!!!) and implies that her father keeps her on an unnecessarily tight leash. From where I’m standing, Britney’s father has almost singlehandedly saved her life. This girl was a mess for a looong time and it seemed she had a real talent for surrounding herself with people who had anything but her best interest at heart. I kind of shudder to think what would’ve happened if the kids had been with her full-time during that period.
I don’t know what kind of husband Kevin was to her so I can’t comment on that, but it’s clear that for a judge to strip any mother of her rights so thoroughly while awarding the (much less wealthy) father custody, that this man is probably not the one to blame for a lot of his ex-wife’s outrageous behavior. And it does come off as bitter for her to even raise Kevin’s name in a negative light regarding his parenting in this interview.
November 26th, 2008 at 5:21 pm
I can’t beleive she said these things in one of her first interviews back with a major publication. Of all the things she could’ve said about her boys she makes them out to be untamed children and places the blame on their father. Yeah right Brit, what you think about Kevin’s parenting skills is your opinion and we can take it or leave it, but we’ve all SEEN what you put your boys through! Grow up!
November 26th, 2008 at 6:45 pm
The interview was not what I had hoped. She wasn’t as open as I think her fans wanted. That is all well and good, but it seems strange to me for several reasons. Why is her career back in full force when she isn’t totally together yet? I heard her manager say in an interview that she is basically defined by her work. So keeping her busy as possible, according to that logic, is best for her mental health. Something is still strange here, but I do love Britney and I wish her the best.
November 26th, 2008 at 8:50 pm
I have never heard Shar Jackson say one negative thing about Kevin. Only that he is a really good father and a good friend to her. They had broken up while she was pregnant – BEFORE he got together with Britney.
And I also believe that she filed for divorce unbeknownst to him. He was here in Toronto shooting a thing for MuchMusic. There is a clip of him in getting an email on his blackberry telling him she filed.
I still do not know how anyone couldn’t see how mentally fragile that girl was after SeanP and when she got preg so soon after. That Matt Lauer interview wasn’t a wakeup call for everybody around her???
I agree with the poster who said she sounds pretty immature.
Here’s my take:
She filed for divorce in haste and in a state of post partum depression.
He didn’t really fight to stay married.
She got depressed/bi-poalr reared it’s ugly head.
He became this great Dad who stepped up to the plate when she faltered.
She regrets the divorce and is still bitter about it because she came out looking bad.
November 26th, 2008 at 10:04 pm
I am sorry, but her comments sound like she’s trying to play the “Poor Britney” card and frankly, most of us are over it. If she wanted to be with her babies 24/7, then why is she booking a world tour? I’m not begrudging her the right to work, but badmouthing Kevin left and right when he has shown her nothing but grace post-divorce, to the point where many believe he is still mourning the loss of the marriage. She dumped him, she filed for divorce and blindsided him. Me thinks Britney needs to accept her role in the mess she is in and grow up instead of putting out an album.
November 26th, 2008 at 10:34 pm
Here we go again… seriously CBB do you even READ your rules for posting… what about OFF TOPIC and COMPLETELY UNRELATED… look at the post its a mess and its cruel and mean, yet you let it go on. I bet you wouldnt allow anyone to criticize your oh so perfect Brangelina family, but Britney its ok right? Sheesh… yeah my post might be off topic but it fits right in with all the others…But I guess it wont be posted, because it disagrees with your beliefs
November 26th, 2008 at 11:14 pm
it’s sad to see everyone passing judement on her. can anyone honestly raise there hands here,and say they have experienced some sort of mental illness? Probably not. it makes you do things you wouldn’t normally do. whether it be,depression,post partum,etc…what ever. she had a downfall,like many parents do.Now she’s trying to move forward. pick up the pieces. Lets just continue to keep her in our prayers.
November 27th, 2008 at 12:54 am
Where are all these comments about Kevin coming from? Several people have stated he just “runs off” and leaves a nanny to mother his children. Uh…what? Where are you seeing evidence of that? I’ve seen him pictured in clubs a couple of times, being paid for promotional appearances…what’s wrong with that? He’s getting paid. Something you should be happy about if you’re upset that he gets Britney’s $$ for child support. So, how exactly does complaining about that make sense? Otherwise, when he is out and about? How would you know how much time he spends with his kids?
Secondly, he has a nanny…and? That’s bad, why? They’ve had the same nanny for a long time now. They seem happy with her, and it provides stability to have the same nanny around, to have a positive, stable female in their lives…something Britney doesn’t provide. The nanny and Kevin do things like push them around in big wheels and take them to the zoo. What does Britney do with her kids? Shop and go to Starbucks. So, again, please explain how Kevin going to work and having a nanny is a bad thing. You would rather them be in Britney’s care, to be dragged around for frappucinos and dates with married papparazzi? That’s better?
November 27th, 2008 at 2:18 am
bc-I mostly agree with you. However, I have not seen any pictures of Britney taking her boys to starbucks or shopping lately. Instead, she has been seen picking them up from school, taking them to the Pumpkin Patch, and even throwing a joint birthday party for them (her parents, brother Bryan, Jamie-Lynn, and Jamie-Lynn’s baby daughter Maddie were all in attendance).
That said, I totally agree with you about the nanny thing. First of all, I’ve read that Kevin has ONE nanny, NOT two. Also, I read somewhere that he’s said the reason he’s not seen out in public with his boys very much is because he knows that, if he was out with them, the pap attention on them would be much worse than it is otherwise.
By having the nannies take them out, the pap attention isn’t nearly as bad, and the boys can enjoy a more normal life.
Grace- That’s not true. I defended Britney like crazy last year when she was on the verge of losing her children. At the time, I was worried about how being taken away from their mother would affect the boys, as they were only 1 and 2 years old at the time, and at that age, most kids still want/need their mommies. I was worried that being taken from their mommy would be traumatic for them.
However, I eventually came to realize that being removed from Britney’s care was actually the best thing for those sweet little boys at the time. I also realized that they likely would have been more tramatized by staying with her than they were by being taken away from her.
Not only that, but I even accepted the fact that having her boys taken away from her was probably the best thing for Britney herself right then.
All of that said, looking at Britney’s recent comments in her upcoming documentry (about the fact that she married for the wrong reasons, for example), makes me think that she has actually been unwell for longer than most of us have realized.
What I think happened is this: Britney’s mental illness had already begun to manifest itself before she married Kevin. Becoming pregnant with Sean shortly thereafter most likely made things worse (pregnant women can get emotinal as it is, plus Kevin didn’t seem to be there for her that much so she was probably, in essence, going through most of the pregnancy and all the emotions that went with it on her own).
Then Sean was born, and along with the fact that being a first-time mom (and just plain taking care of a newborn) is stressful, she probably had Postpartum Depression as well.
Just a few months after Sean’s birth came Brit’s second pregnancy, and subsequently the birth of Jayden. I think it was Jayden’s birth that finally sent her over the edge.
She probably had PPD again, and that, on top of the fact that her PPD from Sean was never treated, along with her mental illness, PLUS the break-up of her marriage, more than likely proved too much for her, and thus her downward spiral began.
I agree with several other posters that, more than likely, Britney’s father literally saved her life. Had it not been for him, I honestly think she may have ended up like Anna Nicole Smith.
My one hope for Britney is that she will continue to recover, and that one day she will be able to regian at least some custody of the boys.
Artemis- ITA!
November 27th, 2008 at 2:20 am
Oh, and I also honestly don’t think Britney DOES remember/realize just how bad things got during her downward spiral. I think she was in sort of a “fog” or “daze” during it, especially right before her hospitilizations.
If you look at some pictures of her from around that time, she literally looks dazed, confused, and lost.
November 27th, 2008 at 6:04 am
A bit late in the conversation, but I am curious, what is this mental illness of hers called? I thought she had a massive child-celebrity meltdown. However,by the comments I’ve read it seems like a mental condition was diagnosed.
As the daughter and sister of a manic-depressive people, I worry that mental illness is being used to describe a case of misshandled fame and the combo of immaturity with big time money, which is what I thought she had.
November 27th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
Eva…I believe she’s been diagnosed with bi-polar disorder. That was leaked to the press a while back. That’s why we all keep mentioning mental illness.
November 27th, 2008 at 2:14 pm
celebbabylover — I agree, we have seen pictures of Britney picking the kids up from school and throwing them a birthday party (note; we’ve also seen pictures of Kevin doing the same things). At the same time it’s important to remember that Kevin has SOLE physical custody of the children right now, meaning anything Britney does with the boys is pretty much under strict scrutiny of the courts.
November 28th, 2008 at 1:28 am
heather – and this is all from reading selections from an interview that is itself most likely edited. – I couldn’t agree more!!!!
I think people are judging too much. How many times have celebrities come back and say that they were misquoted in articles or that things were taken out of content and/or context….
Veronica – I also agree with you, no matter what Britney does and/or says someone is going to find something negative about her.
Nicole – And as for the “he isn’t allowed” that may be true, but if Kevin truly wanted to hurt her and take advantage of her, they would still be in court, and Kevin would be insisting that Britney not see the boys at all. And you know what? She probably wouldn’t be, at least not nearly as much as she does. – I honestly think the reason Kevin decided to settle custody with Britney is because if he went for full custody of the boys then he wouldn’t get the $20,000 a MONTH; granted right now he has sole custody of Sean Preston and Jayden but Britney still get’s visitation! Also I don’t know for a fact, of course, but I’m willing to put money on the fact that the only reason he HASN’T bad mouthed Britney is because there is some kind of order in place that he can’t.
phoebe -but to applaud Kevin for his parenting skills, you’d think people would look a bit further below the surface. I see a man who takes money from his ex-wife to raise children, who then employs people to raise them for him – I totally agree with this statement! And with your comment in general.
CelebBabyLover -Posted by: CelebBabyLover at Nov 27, 2008 2:18:03 AM – I agree with your whole post here!
NOW I know that celebrities hire nannies all the time to help tend to their children and I’m not going to down Kevin for that but what really bugs me with the whole situation is that everytime you see Sean Preston and Jayden while their with Kevin is that their never with Kevin! Their with his bodyguards and/or their nanny going to “kiddie” gym class, going to daycare, going to the park, going for a walk, etc…. Now I do understand the fact that the “paps” would be worst if Kevin took them to all of these places instead of the bodyguards or nanny but at some point I still think Kevin should do some of it at least some of the time.
As far as Shar Jackson saying that Kevin is a wonderful dad and all ….. I know from personal experience (my friend’s boyfriend), just because a guy is a wonderful dad doesn’t mean he’s a wonderful person. He might be good even excellent with kids but he might suck with “adults” and need to work on his adult people skills.
I do agree with the people on here that said that Britney needs to take responsibilty for her own actions, And she really shouldn’t air her and Kevin’s dirty landuary in public for all the world to judge, somethings are meant to stay at home – she’s no saint by any means!!!
But then again neither is Kevin. It just amazes me how when they were together everyone talked crap about Kevin when he was leaving Britney at home all the time with SP while he was out shopping, going to clubs, going to Las Vegas, out playing golf, out partying it up, doing whatever he wanted, then leaving her at home with a small SP while pregnant with Jayden – now their ready to hand him a award.
Kevin hangs out at clubs, Las Vegas …. and he’s just working – after all he’s a DJ – so that makes it ok. …. he’s out playing golf – and he deserves a break and needs to have fun also …… he goes shopping – it’s all good ….. I personally have never seen him out and about with his children recently – and it’s in the best interest of the children …… I just feel like there are a lot of double standards here ….. Britney does it – she’s a aweful person. Kevin does it – lets make excuses why it’s ok.
Please don’t get me wrong I applaud Kevin for stepping up and taking custody of his children and raising them – with Britney’s $20,000/month. I personally just think there are 2 sides to every story. I think Britney is doing great right now on her road to recovery but still needs to work on a lot of things but she’s not totally to blame for everything that has went on with her, Kevin and her boys. And I believe there are a lot of things that Kevin needs to work on as well.
Feel free to point out Britney’s faults but please do the same with Kevin and not only to Britney – that’s my whole point I was/am trying to make.
Britney looks great and I wish her the best in her recovery. I wish Sean Preston and Jayden the best.
OH and btw all kids cuss at one point or another – where is everyone getting this from anyways, it’s not in the article provided above.
November 28th, 2008 at 1:58 am
bc is correct. Also, from what I’ve read (in realible sources like PEOPLE magazine, I might add), Britney is on medication for her condition. From what we’ve seen and heard about her lately, it seems to be helping.
If she didn’t have a mental illness, medication would not help. That said, I do see your point, eva. Mental illness is certainly not something to be taken lightly!
November 28th, 2008 at 11:06 pm
Bi-polar is extremely difficult to treat. . . people tend to often think that a mental disorder is curable which is bs. (I have aspergers so I know what a disorder/syndrome is like.) I think most of you have not seen the spot on MTV advertising the show which I am definitely going to watch. “What was I thinking?” clearly shows she is taking semi responsibility for her actions. I wish her the best and is seeing that she seems to be working through her issues makes my day
Good luck, Britney. Welcome back!
November 29th, 2008 at 1:53 am
Bancie- Actually, Kevin was seen picking Sean up from preschool just a few weeks ago. Here’s the link: http://www.celebrity-babies.com/2008/11/halloween-round.html
It’s the third picture from the top.
November 29th, 2008 at 6:01 pm
CelebBabyLover – thanks for the link I remember that picture from just a couple of weeks ago…… but my point was we don’t see him enough with his boys ….. at least that was the point that I was trying to make; well one of the points anyways.
November 29th, 2008 at 11:32 pm
Bancie- True, we don’t see him with his boys a lot…But how do we know what goes on behind closed doors? For all we know, he spends lots of time with them in private.
December 1st, 2008 at 4:53 am
I loved the quote about Monsters, so cute!:)
I don’t see her quotes as being immature or having to grow up She’s bitter at her Ex-for being a MIA hubby. Sounds like she’s human.
Someone even attacked the fact she said the boys take care for one another?? There is nothing wrong w/ that. Since they’re so close in age it sounds they treat each other more like equals.
BC-what the heck are you talking about?? Get your facts straight. Kevin is barely seen with those kids. Britney takes them to fun places, to school & out on playdates, trick or treating & family parties. Goes swimming w/ them & pushes them around in their toy cars. Don’t just go making up lies now & act like she doesn’t do things w/ them. We see her w/ them way more than kevin.. She’s doesn’t take them shopping, to Starbucks( although there isn’t anything bad if she did) & isn’t even dating any married pap.
Kevin DOES NOT have a job & has been seen drunk & partying in clubs many times. He was partying in Vegas during their B-Days this year.
People are going crazy ASSuming they know more about Britney’s own marriage than she did….uh were you guys there ?? Kevin bailed on her & she filed the papers. How hard is that to grasp?
Kevin take the hight road??? NOway. Thru his lawyer, family & friends he’s been bashing Britney since she filed for divorce. REMEMBER Kevin is barred from talking about Britney because of the pre-nup.
Most of you took that 24/7 quote all wrong. I took it to mean she never thought there would be any divorce, & no custody battle, thus the boys would live with her at all time. Remember even she had full custody the boys wouldn’t even be at her house 24/7. But some hateful people on here always want to jump on Britney’s case & bash everything she does or says.
Some of you say she shouldn’t work. Well who the heck do you think is supporting all these people?? Her ex his 4 kids, her mom her boys…etc. She has to work.
Before passing judgement on this interview based on a few quotes, how about actually reading the whole thing?
You should read what the RS writer had to say about interviewing Spears. Her thoughts on how Britney has changed & the conservertorship are really interesting. It sounds like there is far more to this C-Ship than meets the eye.
