TMZ has learned Britney Spears took a meeting yesterday with a big-time producer and may be headed to the small screen in a starring role.
Sources say Britney and her team met with Roy Bank, President of Merv Griffin Entertainment, and discussed several TV projects in which Brit would star and possibly produce. We're told one of the projects is a music show.
Makes sense to pair Brit up with Bank -- they're both repped by the William Morris Agency, which packages tons of TV shows. It was, we're told, a "serious" meeting.
The ball is now in her court, but she's definitely interested in the whole TV thing.

Britney is having breakfast at IHOP on Ventura right now. I am typing this as she is ordering her food. Can TMZ please bring a camera with live feed and a live CHAT so we can all have some fun?

Does she really need to be thrust back into the spotlight??? I know she's paying 90% of her family's bills and paychecks, but come on! She'll be back in the loony bin by sweeps if they put her on TV.

I'm kind of getting tired of celebrities getting into things they just have no business doing. Britney is a SINGER (or she's supposed to be anyway). She is not an actress (she cannot act - did you see How I Met Your Mother?).. she is not a producer. She should stick to singing.
Plus, its getting a little ridiculous that everyone feels so sorry for Britney that they're literally spoon-feeding her dumb busy work. She seems to be nothing but a charity case now. Kind of pathetic.

What is occurring on behalf of Britney Spears can be attributed to the power of a loving parent(s) who stepped in when the evil coyotes were encircling to gain access to her hard-earned fortune by feeding her drugs while she spiralled further downward.
To those who referred to her father as a "hillbilly", this is proof that people without a college education can be innately more intelligent and have more common sense than many who graduate from a higher institution.
Hat's off to Mr. Spears and hats off to Britney in regaining trust of those who have their family's greatest interest at heart!

Madame Wongs...Sounds like a whore house.
Freddie Moore sounds like a porn star.
Nu Kats....you be the judge.
Kobe Bryant said there was no foul in game four, no foul.

wasted days and wasted nights:
Good for her to turn over a new leaf and give it a go. Better to entertain all of us on television than just the paps on a late-night crazy-go-round. Perhaps she could team up with good paps to go on a hunt for bad paps...bad paps, bad paps, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when the camera's turned on you :)
