Fired by Clarkson, Hired by Britney!

Posted Aug 6th 2007 3:39PM by TMZ Staff

Britney SpearsTMZ has learned that Britney Spears has finally succumbed -- to the notion of having legit management! Britz has hired uber-manager Jeff Kwatinez to help resurrect her dying career. Nurse! Code Blue!

We're told Kwatinetz, CEO of The Firm, one of Hollywood's most powerful agencies, is eager to get his hands on a charity case -- and Britney's a case, for sure. If he can pull off an image revamp for the trashtastic poptart, he'll be considered a hero in Hollywood ... and considered for sainthood by the Vatican! Good luck to him. Bring your own Taser!

As TMZ first reported, Kelly Clarkson axed Kwatinetz to hire Reba McEntire's manager/husband Narvel Blackstock. The Firm reps such stars as Leo DiCaprio, Cameron Diaz, Mandy Moore, Korn, Enrique Iglesias and Ice Cube.

61. Britney Spears and her "career" are DOA. She doesn't need a lawyer -- she needs a mortician.

What's your problem? Why would you love Britney Spears? Just because she used to make a lot of money, she's still an uneducated, emotional, immoral mess.

What's to like? career over, looks gone, terrible mother, addicted to attention, and yesterday's news

She's pathetic and only trailer park trash admire her because she got out. Look at Jackie Kennedy and see what Brit could never have - class

Someone needs to bitch-slap anyone who admires Bitchney Spears

64. So many young lives this woman has ruined. She's a young Madonna. She has been nothing but a bad example. How interesting it will be to watch their children grow up...or attempt to......and how they turn out. Hollywood has been allowed to do as they please for so long they think they can do ANYTHING,,,,even murder. God help them all.

65. No need for a manager. Just release the usual crap, - heavy breathing, some grunting and moaning, irritating electronic backing, raunchy video and all of you above so called discerning critics will be snapping it up! Thats how she made her name and her fortune in the first place. Who needs talent???

66. To #30 - You have been blessed with many things, but compassion is not one of them. Hope your major is not in Human Sciences. You are still young and have yet to meet with life's ways of humbling one. I hope by then the world will be more forgiving to your shortcomings than you are to others.

67. Hey, Ms #29COMMENT - Are you real or what? Just because you're getting your Master's Degree in less than one year DOESN'T MEAN A THING. THAT SURELY DOESN'T MAKE YOU A SCHOLAR...Thank God you were blessed with great parents, how did they create such a hateful person? By the way, you don't know how to spell Ms. high and mighty. Why don't you try spell check or God forbid crack open that dictionary! I think you need a hell of a lot more compassion than Britney.
