Daddy Spears: It's Hard Dang Work Being Me

Posted Jun 16th 2008 6:52PM by TMZ Staff

Jamie Spears needs to get paid y'all!

Daddy Spears quit his job as a personal chef in February to watch over Brit 24/7. As compensation, the Commish agreed he could pay himself $2500 a week from Brit's cash.

Court docs just released today prove he's working hard for the money. He's her full-time bitch -- running errands, buying groceries, paying her bills, managing her medical care and "cooking supper on a regular basis." In addition to all these mundane little things, he spends his days and nights as his daughter's pal -- to "ensure her comfort and well-being."

We're told Jamie filed these papers accounting for his every move to keep everything above board-- and make sure all involved knew exactly what he was up to.

63. Consider this ... most people work only 40 hours a week, and he has to work 168 hours a week. When you break down the 2500 into 168 hours, it equals out to less then $15 an hour.

I say he deserves at least triple that, considering what a good job he's doing.

I agree with many of you, that she was spiraling of out control before her dad stepped up to the plate and took control of her life. Actually he did that legally - through the court system. I'm sure things were much worst than was posted on the internet.

$2500 a week isn't that much money. I used to earn that when I was still working, and never considered myself to be extremely rich. That was about 7 years ago. I figure he was earning that, or close to that before he became Britney's full time caretaker.

He has truly put his whole life on hold to try to help his daughter. I hope he is rewarded for his efforts, and at some point she can pull her life together. When Britney can publicly apologize for all the pain she has caused her children, parents and fans, and state what her problem was - then she will be ready to control her own life.

66. Dianne T..shhhh it's me!! hahaha...that woman would not be alive today if her dad didn't get in at the last possible moment that he did and that is a good thing. He obviously has a much needed tight rein on his daughters best interests..all of them and I love it...I couldn't even begin to imagine her now without him.

True,

K is now in 110 percentile in height for her age group. Very tall! I hope everything works out for that family. It must break Jamie's heart that Britney is unable to connect with her kids. I'm sure he really loves his grandchildren, like I love mine.

70. I'm sure Jamie is happy he was able to get her help in time...I can't help but wonder what the Adnoid and Luftis r up too...they have been quiet wayyyyyyy to long...I'm thinking legal affidavits and payoffs!...Kids grow wayyyyyyyyyy to fast!..grrrrrr

True !,

Sam's challenge to overturn the restraining order was recently DENIED! Adnan is long gone because it was reported that he was cheating on her. Maybe she is slowly coming to senses.

72. ...what about Lufti trying to sell rights for a tv movie...or adnoid for a tell all...that is what I am talking abt...notice I didn't use capitals on either of their names! hahaha...neither deserve.

74. what? so Dianne T in Texas is fake and I am asking abt Katrina...whatever..was duped again. Nite.

Oh no, True ! you're in recent comments. As for Lutfi & Adnan, this just doesn't seem to be the time for them to make money off of her. They're both pretty much hated. Much later, I'm sure their sides of the story will come up.
