Report: Britney Spears Feels Out Of Control

Britney Spears feels "completely out of it" because her father is so controlling, it has been claimed. Friends say the '3' singer is so strictly guarded by dad Jamie Spears she has lost track of the time and days of the week. A source told FoxNews:
"She is so out of it she just doesn’t care anymore. She just does what she’s told and is totally in her world.
"She’ll even call people at all hours of night for a general conversation and acts like it’s the middle of the day or something."
Jamie – who took charge of Britney's personal and financial affairs after her emotional breakdown in January 2008 – is so determined to keep his daughter under control he is reportedly systematically firing her staff so she doesn't have the chance to get close to anyone.
"He’s really trying to clean up her image. He’s making a lot of changes to the people around her. Everyone is a bit on edge they could be the next one to be replaced.
"Britney's family has seen what happens when she gets too close to outsiders and they lose control, they don’t want it happening again."
Jamie blames Britney's relationship with former manager Sam Lutfi and paparazzo Adnan Ghalib for his daughter's breakdown. He has taken out restraining orders against both men.

Oh how the media loves the controlling father angle! Leave the poor girl alone...
He should be giving more control over her life as she gets closer to the end of the conservitorship.. If she does not have the confidence in herself to handle her affairs on her own she is gonna be in the back of an ambulace by the end of the first year.. I hope that I am wrong but I don't think I am.

I'm totally ok with her dad being over protective of his daughter and if his acting like this is because he doesn't think she's ready to manage life on her own. This was the best thing that happen to Britney, so i think is totally ok for her dad to manage everything that's going on around her. She might want to start caring and stop calling people in the middle of the night to chat first...and if she doesn't know what day of the week it is than freaking ask.
I call lies and rumor. Blah....

What he's doing is not good. It's not healthy for her to have no control over her own life. He should be slowly giving her more freedom, rather than tightening the leash. Seriously, he can't be her guardian forever....at some point, she's going to have to stand on her own two feet and he's not giving her the tools to do that. It's really sad.

I'm not sure if I believe this story. Anyway, she should be thankful her father stepped in and took control. Look at Lindsay Lohan. Britney at least has one parent who cares enough to step in and get her help.

Yes, exactly.
I don't think that Jaime is that controlling or Britney wouldn't be allowed out of the house to do anything. I do think that him stepping in and taking care of Britney and handling her affairs is exactly what Britney needed. She needed a little control in her life because she was already heading in a downward spirial. Britney is definitely better now but I don't think he should totally leave all control to Britney becuase they could be exactly in the same spot next year.
BLAME BLAME BLAME BLAME MR SPEARS HOW EASILY YOU ALL FORGET SHE IS MENTALLY RETARDED AND CANNOT CARE FOR HERSELF. SHE IS MENTALLY UNSTABLE AND WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO LIVE A NORMAL LIFE BECAUSE HER BRIAN IS NOT DEVELOPED ENOUGH TO MAKE ADULT DECISIONS. RATIONAL REALISTIC DECISIONS. I AM SOOO SICK OF JAMIE GETTING BLAME BRITNEY IS A GROWN WOMAN WHO PISSED HER LIFE AWAY BY MAKING BAD DECISIONS CONSTANTLY. NO ONE TOLD HER TO BE MARRIED AND DIVORCED 2X BY 28. STOP DEFENDING HER AND FACE THE FACTS THAT YOUR 'IDOL' IS A MENTAL MIDGET WHO CANNOT LIVE AS AN ADULT. YOU CANNOT SEE THIS WHEN SHE DOES INTERVIEWS??? TALK ABOUT ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT. STOP BLAMING THE ONLY PERSON WHO CARES ABOUT HER I AM SURE HER FATHER HAS BETTER THINGS TO DO THEN BABYSIT HIS OUT OF CONTROL 28 YEAR OLD SPOILED BRAT SELFISH DAUGHTER. GET OVER IT PEOPLE.

Your slamming a person who is, "mentally retarded" makes me question your mental development as well.
she has a mental disorder and not to mention years of drugs use....god only knows how many times she tried to commit suicide and/or hurt one of her children. she is incapable to take care of herself. she should be thanking her dad for saving her life or she could have ended up in a looney bin for the rest of her life.

Self-medicating is the norm for those with untreated/undiagnosed bipolar disorder.

I did not believe the comeback when it happened and for some reason still have a problem believing that she is fully over it. She still has a vacant look in her eyes and just is not herself.
