Britney Spears 'upset & dejected' after reaching settlement with dad who controlled her life for 13 years | 93Z955M | 2024-04-30 13:08:01
SINGER Britney Spears said she felt "hurt" after failing in a bid to hold her father accountable for controlling her life and cash for 13 years.
Lawyers last week reached a settlement over her conservatorship and she must foot Jamie's £2million legal bills.

Yesterday she wrote on Instagram: "My family hurt me! There has been no justice and probably never will be!"
The Sun can reveal the reason it didn't go to court was over fears that Britney, 42, would be put on the stand and forced to re-live her most embarrassing moments.
Amid concerns for her mental health in 2008, she was put under a conservatorship, with her dad managing her financial and personal affairs.
It was in place until 2021.
A source said: "Her legal team decided the focus should be on protecting her from reliving the traumas of her conservatorship."
"[But] her legal team decided the focus should be on protecting her from reliving the traumas of her conservatorship."
In a statement in court in 2021 before the conservatorship was revoked, she said: "My dad and anyone involved in this conservatorship, including my management… they should be in jail."
Britney and Jamie are yet to comment on the legal settlement.

BRITNEY Spears concerned fans after she uploaded a photo of Justin Bieber crying.
The 42-year-old uploaded a carousel of images on Monday night with little context and fans thought she could be hinting Justin is in trouble.

Britney's post included ten photos in her Instagram collection, including her lying on top of a horse in a bikini.
In the middle of the post, she featured a close-up selfie of Justin as he cried.
In it, he wore a green hat and his facial hair looked unkempt.
"A wonderful dump of photos and videos as Sara my dog s**ts on us all!!! Have a nice day folks," Britney captioned the post.
The photo came from a recent post of Justin, where he posted the selfie after his friend and rapper Chris King was killed in a shooting.
While her comments were turned off, Britney's fans flocked to Reddit to discuss the post and theorize what it could mean.
"Britney Spears posts this photo of Justin crying in her last post. Why does this scare me more now?" someone captioned the discussion thread with a screenshot of Justin crying.
"Woah that's very weird/telling even for usual posts," added another.
"Britney is trying to spread awareness, showing us that JB is in trouble," wrote a third.
A few days before the photo, Britney also shared a video of herself dancing raunchily in the living room of her Los Angeles home.

She donned a skin-tight nude dress which was cut short to expose her long legs.
She pulled her straps down and posed at the camera while Daddy Yankee and Luis Fonsi's track Despacito played.
Justin famously featured on this track in 2017 and reached huge chart success.
Britney's fan concern came after she appeared to have a turbulent week after a two-year court battle was settled.
Since her conservatorship was terminated in 2021, Jamie, 71, and Britney, 42, have still butted heads.
The dad-daughter duo was still in a fight regarding his legal fees and his management of her finances during the conservatorship.
Jamie was seeking approval from the court for more than $2 million for hiring lawyers during the 13-year conservatorship as well as his current lawyer's hefty bills.
In the end, Britney was ordered to pay her father's legal bills of more than $2 million, according to TMZ.

In a video on social media yesterday, he said he had found his "path" and had felt "incredibly blessed" and "nourished" following the ceremony.
Brand, 48, has been accused of rape, sexual assault and emotional abuse by four women after a joint probe by Channel 4's Dispatches and The Times.
He denies all claims about his behaviour at the height of his fame between 2006 and 2013.
In the clip at the weekend Brand did not mention the accusations directly, but referenced "challenges".
Singer Nicole Scherzinger said: "Amen! So awesome you are doing this! Jesus is the way!
"You will be reborn, renewed and cleansed!
"Maybe just don't do it in the Thames, praying for you."

This also means Masters 2024 will only have two newcomers (JIT winner Groce and 2024 ToC winner Yogesh) instead of three.
"How do you have a tournament that eliminates people from masters but still pick them…" one fan reacted to the news.
"For the record, as a big Amy fan… I'm not a massive fan of this pick. it's kind of a predictable choice and I just don't know if her gameplay will hold up against the other five," wrote another.
"So then what was the point of the JIT," asked a third.

MEET THE MASTERS
James, a 32-time winner and poker pro, won Master Season 1 in a breeze and only lost one match.
Mattea wrote on X last week, "Just spent a good portion of my day rifling through my (straight!) brother's closet looking for cool sh** I can wear on Jeopardy Masters."
Matt, 39, placed third last year and was the only player to notch a win against James the entire special.

But Alicia, 47, made sure to save some alone time during their vacation as well, stripping down naked for a swim in a lagoon pool on Thursday.
The '90s star posted a snap on Instagram of herself completely nude while wading in the hotel pool.
In the photo, the actress gazed away from the camera as she swam naked while surrounded by jungle plants.
Although the water concealed Alicia's body, she made sure fans knew that she was nude.
"When life offers a secluded pool, skinny dip," she wrote in the caption, adding a water emoji.
Fans offered their support in the comments section, with many gushing over the MTV award-winner for enjoying the peaceful moment.
"The true sense of freedom," one wrote, as another agreed, "You look so peaceful."
"Looks like you're having a great time," a third admitted.
"That looks perfect," another agreed.
Alicia was joined on the trip by her lookalike son, Bear.
Jeopardy! fans say James Holzhauer will 'smash' contestant in Masters who once bragged about 'being smarter than him' | 93Z955M | 2024-04-30 13:08:01
JEOPARDY! Masters 2024 is just days away, reminding fans of the feud that newbie Yogesh Raut started with none other than James Holzhauer.
Ken Jennings hosts the six-legend ABC primetime competition starting this Wednesday.

Season 2 of Jeopardy! Masters kicks off on May 1, airing on ABC at 8 p.m. ET.
The format pits the six top-ranked contestants against each other with two matches in each intense hour-long episode.
In the premiere, Mattea, Matt, and Victoria face off, with Victoria securing her spot through sheer grit in the recent JIT.
But the real drama unfolds in the night's second match between Yogesh, who qualified by winning the 2024 Tournament of Champions, and the formidable duo of James and Amy.
'HOPE HE'S PREPARED!'
Fans on social media are anticipating James's inevitable domination over Yogesh. But they also recalled how, in 2023, Yogesh taunted James on stage, relishing in his victory over the Jeopardy! legend at high school trivia.
"The first night's matchups for the Jeopardy Masters has just been released online," one Facebook user started a thread.
"Second quarterfinal match of the Masters features the long-awaited James vs Yogesh battle on May 1. This is gonna be an exciting Masters tournament."
"Hope James beats Yogesh," one fan replied.
"James will smash the other guy," wrote another.
"James is going to topple Yogesh," wrote a third.
"Yogesh will be preparing to the max so he will not eat his words," wrote a fourth.
'HE WAS JAMIE IN THOSE DAYS'
Yogesh is a three-day champ who amassed a dominant $98,800 (including a rare perfect game) in 2023.
The pro quizzer is controversial to many fans, in part for using many of his initial interview segments to brag about his trivia prowess.
Ken prompted, "Also like me, we share a rival in James Holzhauer. You were James Holzhauer's rival long before I was, in a sense."
Yogesh replied, "He was Jamie Holzhauer in those days, but yes."
"He went to a rival high school – we competed against each other in Scholastic Bowl and Math Team"
Ken asked, "Can you stack up with James Holzhauer? Or at least back in the day?"
Yogesh was not shy about how things went against the poker player-turned-Jeopardy! star long before he knew he'd be a Master.
Yogesh hilariously replied: "My team won two scholastic bowls and a state championship and his team won zero, so…"
"Well!" Ken jumped back with a grin and a wide shrug, not expecting the confidence.
"That would be, I'm not a mathematician but that would be two more" the host concluded.

Bianca Censori's lookalike sister Angelina channels star's bold look with tiny black dress for night out after birthday | 93Z955M | 2024-04-30 13:08:01
BIANCA Censori's sister looked like the spitting image of her in a new social media post.

The youngest of Bianca's two sisters took a video of herself from a mirror in her Australian home.
Angelina donned a skin-tight black dress that was cut short and exposed her long legs.
The dress featured a draping fabric which accentuated her slim waist and gathered around her hips.
Angelina's one piece also contained long sleeves and a plunging neckline, which showed off her bare chest.
Her hair was scraped back into an updo and she wore a face full of natural makeup.
In the video, she moved her slim body around to show a couple of different angles.
There was no further context added to her post, but the star shared the video the day after her birthday celebrations.
Angelina was featured on a friend's social media as Saskia Stecki uploaded a snapshot of Bianca's sibling in her steamy dress.
The figure-hugging outfit had cutouts on the side which hinted she was not wearing underwear.
She teased a bit of bare skin from her hips while posing in front of white tiled walls.

Angelina smiled at the camera as she extended her arms and carried a handbag.
Her long hair flowed onto her shoulders and down her back.
"MF birthday," Saskia captioned the post.
After that, the friend shared a video from Bianca's sister at a concert dancing to music.
During the clip, the Australian professional basketball player flaunted her flat tummy as the electronic dance music thumped.
FAMILY CONCERN
In addition to Angelina, Bianca's sister Alyssia is a nurse and has a son in Brisbane, Australia.
Bianca lived Down Under before she started working for Kanye's fashion brand Yeezy, in Los Angeles, in November 2020.
Bianca and her sisters were raised by their parents, Leo and Alexandra Censori, in the Ivanhoe neighborhood in Melbourne.

In February, insiders told Daily Mail that Leo believed that the 46-year-old rapper turned his daughter into a "trashy commodity."
"Bianca's father Leo wants to have a proper sit down with Kanye and ask him what the hell he is thinking when he parades Bianca around like a trashy naked trophy pony," the source told the outlet.
CONCERNING PROJECTS?
Recently, Bianca's fans have also been begging her to leave Kanye after he revealed he was working on his own pornography studio which will be "like nothing we've ever seen before."
Kanye is collaborating with Stormy Daniels' ex-husband, Mike Moz, on the project.
The news was shared on Reddit along with an article speculating about whether Bianca would appear in the X-rated venture.
"You know, she really could leave. If it's support, the public would believe her, and I'd honestly be inclined to believe her side too," one fan wrote on the social media thread.
"There's time, Bianca. you can jump outta the ship," another added.
"What is happening here, why is this woman agreeing to do this? Someone help her," a third posted.
