Britney Spears’ Mom Speaks

Britney Spears‘ family is understandably “terrified” following the news of her hospitalization, a family insider tells People.

“Everyone has been worried for some time,” s/he says. “Her world has been crumbling around her and this is another call for help. Her parents are just devastated. Nobody knows if they can take much more, but they’re trying to be as strong as they can.”

Britney’s father was at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Thursday night, and her older brother Bryan is expected to show up today. Meanwhile, Access Hollywood spoke to Britney’s mother, Lynne, who they say was “extremely distraught,” crying on the phone and asking everyone to “just say prayers.”

That Lynne sure is a woman of faith, isn’t she? That must be why she let them kick off Britney’s career by dressing the 16-year-old in that “holy” Catholic schoolgirl uniform.

    My mom would have beaten me into submission before she let me out of the house in anything remotely resembling that ‘ensamble’ when I was 16.
    ‘The only place for a whore is on the corner. Not a pedestal.’ Words of wisdom from my 17 yo sister, who I thank god knows what birth control is.

  2. Julie says:

    Hear hear to omj’s sister!

  3. tellin ya what I know says:

    That is just a shirt tied up at the belly. I see girls wear that and less at that age all summer. Brit was and still is a very pretty and sexy girl so whatever she wears might be too sexy to some folks.

  4. Jenn F. says:

    That’s a fantastic quote, omj… your sister is wise beyond her years.

    tellin ya ~ Britney certainly was and is very pretty, and yeah, she works the “sex” thing pretty hard. But that’s the problem. She’s trying too hard. And as for the little ones wearing that and less all summer, a little experience tells the rest of us where most of them end up.

  5. Vern says:

    I have to confess, I have contributed to the “madness.”
    My kid was young enough to like Brit, and I hated her influence then, but it didn’t stop me from buying a Brit doll for my niece. Oh the shame!

    omj and sister are very wise indeed!

  6. tellin ya what I know says:

    Britney today over did the sex appeal, like the VMA outfit. But back in her teen years, I did not see her being overly sexy. That was Xtina Aguilara. If a teen isn’t a “bit” sexy while starting a Hollywood career, she just won’t make it.

  7. Erika says:

    How does a mental breakdown or her old outfits make Britney a whore? Its not like she had those kids with random men…she was MARRIED. People are so judgemental.

  8. Zeno says:

    ok that schoolgirl outfit wasn’t THAT trashy, also consider it was for a music video and not on the street…granted, brit was exploited so much to the point where it was undoubtable that she would end up in this downward spiral.
    but what Lynne isn’t getting is that “prayers” aren’t going to bring back her little girl.

  9. Mr. Peepers says:

    Excellent point Erika.

  10. Pak31 says:

    tellin ya~I understand what you are saying but as a mother, I am not going to subject my daughter to that because it just leads to more and more of the same and/or worse. Yes, it’s just a shirt tied up to the belly but it is on a 15 year old and dirty old men and not so dirty men love a woman in a school girl outfit. Why? It turns them on sexually. Yeah, it sells records but I am sorry if it were my daughter, I would rather not subject her to that. That was just the brink, so she let her do all the other crap she did and now look at her.

  11. Simon T. says:

    I think Brit’s breakdown is from a lack of closeness within her family, a bad choice for a husband, TMZ cameras in her face 24/7, fair weather fans, and her being only human (not Superwoman). Not from being a cute, sexy superstar teen.
    I sure hope Brit bounces back cuz I’m a fan true and true. Luv U Brit!

  12. Cindy P. says:

    Pak31, news flash, dirty old men look at all young girls in that way. Girls need to be educated about the woes of the world but to force them to be so uptight about their bodies that they can’t even wear a bathing suit at the beach cuz it shows skin? I think that will cause problems too. Britney’s tummy out in that video was just sexy enough for a 16 yr. old.

  13. jenner says:

    I don’t think this is about Britney being a “whore”, I gathered it was about Lynn & Jamie Spears WHORING their daughter.

    Simon T. - I’m totally with ya, except for the TMZ cameras bit. Don’t forget X17 cameras are in her face 24/7, too. Just because they’re pretty much on the payroll doesn’t make them any less damaging ;)

  14. midevil says:

    Yeah, it’s about parents whoring out their kids. The school girl outfit is a universal symbol for the virginal type girl men crave to deflower. Anyone who says different is totally missing the point.

  15. Happy Go Lucky says:

    Britney is a whore. She whores herself these
    days. She can’t make it to court to try to get
    her kids back but she always has time for a
    photoshoot at the local starbucks. She has a love-hate relationship w the paps, no doubt.
    I wish people would quit making excuses for her
    and her behavior. GET IT TOGETHER BRITNEY! She’s
    a grown woman AND A MOTHER. She could at least
    act like she gave a fuck about those poor kids.
    And now….they’re gone. As they should be.

  16. Mr. Peepers says:

    Jenny Craig is a “Universal Symbol” for women who can’t handle seeing pretty young girls being adorable, talented and sexy for their age.

  17. midevil says:

    I don’t even know what the fuck Jenny Craig is. If you need to lose weight, Mr. Peepers, try yoga.

  18. Paige says:

    Britney is not pretty. Your eyes must be on the side of your head too, Mr. Peepers.

  19. midevil says:

    Yeah, I googled it, cause I know how to use a search engine.

  20. Simon T. says:

    I think Brit is very pretty. Walk down the street and tell me you see better than Brit. Nope.

  21. pray for me says:

    I am sick and tired of these people going “Oh she had it rough as a young star, she shat out two kids with a loser, she hung out with that bad influence Paris Hilton, she’s not fat- she’s just big boned” BULL SHIT! My god, wake up and smell the STD’s and cheetoh’s people! Britney Spears is a grown ass person who has made stupid, fucked up decisions and deserves to be ridiculed into oblivion. She’s nothing but a useless waste of space.
    I hate the fact that she is “famous” and most especially I detest that it upsets me to see people come to her defense.
    If it weren’t for her kids, I’d recommend suicide ASAP.
    Pray for that bitches.

  22. January says:

    pray for me -???! So people without kids and
    have problems should commit suicide?

    This young woman is obviously having the
    down-swing of a manic episode. I really
    feel for her, her children and her
    family.

    Suicide is a symptom of an illness.
    It is like a diabetic dying from
    insulin shock. And our society needs
    to realize that comments like this”recommend
    suicide” only feed the stigma of mental illness.

    I don’t condone how she is living her life.
    But would you be so upset if she were not
    rich and famous and just another 20 something
    who is in need of help?

    I hope that now that she has hit bottom - she
    finds her way back up - not to fame and
    mtv glory - but back to a sense of peace and
    love for herself. She is sick. Human compassion
    says we should ALL wish her well.

  23. entEngle says:

    When she hit the latest MTV awards we became HIPPO -
    critical. Don’t tell her she’s fat ! Just get her
    to wear appropriate clothes (+ panties). Remind the
    drunk that she can AFFORD drivers to anywhere around
    the clock. She’s now the most tragic of the tramps.
    Losing respect &/or a fortune is nothing compared to
    having your kids taken. Like K-Fed’s lawyer said…
    Nobody has won here. She could’ve been slipped her
    1st Mickey while wearing those ears. I know a 14yr.
    old who said that the trash didn’t fall far from the
    trailer. Maybe that paparazzo stud’ll do her strait!

  24. Bee Hind says:

    Her career will never be what it was, even if she does get her act together. Generally speaking, when faced with the threat of having your children taken away, most women would go to the ends of the earth to keep them. She blew off court dates and went to Starbucks. It’s hard to muster compassion for her, it just feels like everything she does is for attention.
