Court Rules That Britney Spears Conservatorship Will Remain Unchanged Until 2021

tmp47c56359-8711-47ad-b638-c31ddcd616be-jpg

On Wednesday, Britney Spears request to remove her father, Jamie Spears, as sole conservator was dismissed – after a Los Angeles court made no immediate changes to her 12-year court-appointed conservatorship.

Spears, now 38, had asked for her longtime care manager, Jodi Montgomery, to permanently replace her father Jamie as her conservator, however the hearing extended the current arrangements until February 2021. Jamie Spears was appointed conservator in 2008 after the pop star was hospitalized for psychiatric treatment. The singer’s care manager Jodi Montgomery took over in a temporary capacity late last year when Jamie Spears suffered a bout of ill health.

A lawyer for Spears had submitted documents ahead of the private hearing saying Spears was “strongly opposed” to having her father return to control her affairs. Spears pulled out of a Las Vegas concert residency last year and briefly entered a mental health facility, and has not performed publicly since October 2018.

Taylor Swift’s ‘Folklore’ Holds No. 1 Spot For Third Week On Billboard 200

tmp1fe408c8-8f72-48ed-aa54-49463ed16689-jpg

Taylor Swift’s latest album, “Folklore,” is holding onto the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 albums chart for the third week in a row, marking the first album by a solo woman to spend its first three weeks at No. 1 since 2018. The last time a solo female musician accomplished this was Swift herself, with her “Reputation” album back in 2017. “Folklore” is her eighth studio album.

The continued success of “Folklore” was aided last week by the CD sales in stores, with 136,000 album units sold in the U.S. in the week ending Aug. 13. Before that, it was only available for digital download on her website and iTunes.

Folklore sold 1.3 million copies on its first day and 2 million copies in its first week globally.
