Celebrity Justice
Britney Spears Lawyers Up

Britney Spears has lawyered up again -- this time, she met with the lawyer who represented Mel Gibson in his DUI case.

Sources say Spears -- wearing a blonde wig -- went this morning to meet with Blair Berk, a prominent criminal defense lawyer whose roster of clients includes Lindsay Lohan, Halle Berry, Tracy Morgan and others.

We do not know why Spears chose to meet with Berk, although it's unlikely it has anything to do with her divorce. In her divorce case, Spears is repped by disso-queen Laura Wasser.

Spears could have met with Berk on a civil matter, as Berk handles both civil and criminal matters. Interestingly, Berk once repped Reese Witherspoon in her battle with hard-driving paparazzi. It's possible Spears went to Berk for similar reasons.

76. All of the people who write positives things about any of these hoes are probably their people. They have lost their minds just like this crazy b*tch or bad parents just as well. How can you defend her and anyone else's action? If they are tired of being famous then stay out of the limelight. Stop being a media whore. Give all of your money away to your kids and just live a normal life. Peope only make comments if they put themselves out there. Wrong is wrong plain and simple. Paris, nicole and lindsey are all talentless hoes. If people stop reading the crap or people stop reporting then these hoes would just go away. It is funny how the stars back in the day were known for the acting and making great movies. We have made stars out of nobodies. Now anyone can get a star on the walk of fame.

77. Brit should have spent more evenings at home with her kids. My child is 11, old enough to leave home for short periods, but I would never think of going out til all hours of the night, EVERY night, babysitter or not.

78. datlaw214...... jeez talk about being random..... who cares that she is a republican???? what does that have to do with anything???? the point is britney needs help and i don't understand why she goes to rehab and leaves and then goes to rehab again... i doubt that its because her mother froze her credit cards do we need to remember how old she is??? she is 25 and the mother therefore cannot do anything to her credit cards.... and as for fed-ex getting the kids.... not like he is any better.... im not saying that britney should keep the kids either but fed-ex isn't cut out to be a father.....

80. how come you all are willing to bash this girl?
have you never EVER in your pathetic lives been so overwhelmed that you acted out? have you ever lived a life so public that your every blink was recorded? have you ever had people make huge financial gains off of YOU?
how many public lives have been lost because "adoring fans" felt entitled to know every last savory and unsavory detail of their life? how many people like Britney, ANS, PH, or LL who have money but little guidance and no where to turn without their fans commenting on every nuance of their life that comes the public way? these young stars, male and female need mentoring from normal, non public people to learn what real life is like. to learn there are limits to what is acceptable and what isn't. just like every young person in the world. these are people who hear not only every positive thing but every negative thing. every one of you who has posted a comment or blog positive or negative knows that there are limits on how much negative critism YOU personally could take before you blow. lol at me, critisize me, belittle me for my opinions but don't anyone publicly speculate on a celeb or non celeb, unless you have lived a life (young or old) without ever having made a mistake. i would gladly volunteer to help someone or anyone as desperate as this young generation, any way i could. but alas, i'm a no one.

81. Watched the video. She sure doesn't seem upset to me. Laughing, singing, chewing gum, smoking, and how caring by carrying her dog. She is not fit for anything, and hardly worth all the time we've spent on her. To watch the tape, she looked as though she was loving it.

82. Some people can be so self-righteous. All I can say that we can never understand what Britney's going through because we don't live the rich and famous lifestyle that she have with paparazzi following her around. There are a lot of aspects that affects someone behavior. We grew up with diff. backgrounds and family, that's why we react differently to some incidents in our life. It's easy for you to say that she have to this and that? Why is she like this and that? But you and Britney is different. And we don't know what's in her mind and heart or maybe there things that we don't know that had happened to her that makes her behave in a certain way. And to all the negative people who continue to put her down even if she is in a tough situation like this. If you cannot say something good about other people. Don't talk at all. Keep it to yourself. You are only making Britney's situation worst. Right now, she is vulnerable and the least she needs is your criticisms. She make some mistakes. The girl checks in the rehab, wants to get well and what did other poeple do. She was still judge. She went out because the paparazzi did not give her peace. They still try to annoy her inside the rehab. LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE!

83. No one but Brittany knows for sure what's going on inside her head. Rehab may not be the place for her. She should find God. He will save her.... he saved me.
God help you Brittany.

84. Britney probably went to see this lawyer to deal with the paparazzi giving her a hard time.

85. i think they should take the kid's away from her, she's never with them anyway it's really sad if there being raised by nannies, i don't think k-fed should get them either he's shown he aint to stable either, give them to the grand parent's at least they'll be with someone who will love them and take care of them !!!!!!

86. statement on hair:

shaving the head was because repeated color hi-lite processing and hair extensions fried and caused her hair to break off all the time. her hair was fried beyond repair and so she chose to just shave it off and let it regrow back in her natural color and without chemicals.

thats it.

88. The only reason you go to a criminal defense lawyer is b/c of some criminal offense. Lord only knows what this time bomb has done.

89. She can hire all of the lawyers she wants to, but the bottom line is that she is out of control and in need of serious rehab and mental help. I really hope Kevin gets these kids, because he truly has stepped up to the plate to be a parent. You don't see him out in public, partying it up every night and making an ass out of himself. I really hope she gets the kids taken away from her today.
