Britney Spears: No Panties, No Hair...

Britney Spears VMA girlfriend still looks good all you haters.jpgAnd now, no lawyers? From the AP:

Britney Spears' lawyers in her custody battle with ex-husband Kevin Federline are quitting. The law firm Trope and Trope asked a court Wednesday to be relieved as Spears' attorneys. The firm says there's been a "breakdown" in communication with the pop princess that makes representing her "impossible," according to the filing, obtained by CelebTV.com.

Structured finance lawyers, it's time to put down those securitization agreements and pick up Us Weekly. Representing the embattled pop star is a growing practice area:

On a separate legal front, an attorney for Spears wants the city attorney's office to prove that the pop star is a permanent California resident and is subject to state laws that require her to have a valid California driver's license.

Spears faces up to a year of probation if convicted in a misdemeanor case of driving without a valid license, a charge to which she has pleaded not guilty. The case stems from a videotaped fender-bender in a parking lot in August. A hit-and-run charge has been dismissed.

Spears attorney J. Michael Flanagan earlier Wednesday requested that prosecutors be required to demonstrate that Spears, who owns homes in Louisiana and Florida, intends to make Los Angeles her permanent legal home.

Of course she does -- Britney Spears is the quintessential Californian.

Now if only the judicial system would just leave... Britney... alone!!!

Trope and Trope cite an end to blowjobs by the pop princess as the reason for "breakdown" in communication. In other news, city attorneys have dropped cases against BJ Spears.

"Britney Spears is the quintessential Californian"

Why because she is white? She is southern trash... not cali girl. All white people are not the same...

"Britney Spears is the quintessential Californian" Not because she is white but because she is dumber than sheetrock.

It's cool. Someone will step up to represent her at the commitment hearing.

She's a quintessential Louisianan. She's "Californian" in exactly the same sense as were the Beverly Hillbillies.

Better choice for T5-->V10: sophisticated cross-border transactional work or complex bet-the-company litigation?

In the legal papers, attorney Tara Scott from Trope and Trope wrote, "There has been a breakdown in communications between [Britney] and Trope and Trope making further representation of her interests impossible." Ding dang wha?!

Who cares about Britney--go to the Trope and Trope web site and look at Tara--now that's HOT

I echo the point made by other commenters that Britney is not at all a "quintessential Californian." She's from Mississippi and was raised in Louisiana. Her whole personal style and aesthetic is way more influenced by that culture than by the West Coast.

It's bad enough to invoke inane California stereotypes. It's even worse to try to apply them to somebody who clearly doesn't fit the mold.

Anyone want to take a guess as to whose nipples are more f'd-up . . . Tara Reid's or Brittney Spears'?

Sorry folks, she is pure California. It's not that California breeds empty headed, materialists like this is; it's that it attracts and enables them. California is like a trashy bar you attend once and then feel embarassed because of it. It's obviously not trashy because of the people born in it or because of its architecture. It's trashy because of the clientelle it attracts and serves. You can't get out of this by pointing out Spears' birth was somewhere else.

Call her unfit, crazy, trash, whatever- I'd still knock the bottom out of Ms. Spears.
