Britney Spears -- The High Price of Sanity

Posted Nov 4th 2009 4:27PM by TMZ Staff

Britney Spears blew through $1.32 MILLION on lawyers in a recent 7-month span -- but the result was priceless.

The money has been used to pay off the lawyers who represented Britney's conservatorship -- the group of people who have essentially restored Britney.

The court order makes it clear: More fees are on the way ... and Britney's conservators need to stash a few bucks away to prepare.

BTW, it cost Britney roughly $280,000 in lawyer's fees to keep Adnan Ghalib, Sam Lutfi and Jon Eardley away from her.

3. I was FOIST, consarnit!
In addition Lawyers are a necessary burden that helps to explain and interpret the laws that govern our very lives.
Would you rather live in a lawless world where the politicians make paste from your bones?
Take heed! Without my lawyer, I'd already be doomed.

7. Britney is a pig and a total train wreck.
But I'd nail her.
Oh, come on... you know you would too!
You'd lie to your friends and say you didn't but you know you so would!

Plus, she's already shown that she can make some really bad decisions!
I could be the next one of those.

I'd treat her really badly too - I'd probably donkey punch her a few times but from what I've seen, she's pretty stupid and probably wouldn't even notice.

8. I won't be shocked if she decided to kill herself in order to be free again.

10. Anyone else that could do a tour would be off the conservatorship. What is wrong with her???? Did she do that much heroin that she is completely mentally unstable? If doctors won't let her run her own life by now, I am thinking maybe she will never be sane enough to do it. Mental problems plus no common sense plus extremely low IQ = conservatorship. Even Lindsey isn't that bad.

11. LOVE YOU BRITNEY!

HAVE FUN DOWN THERE!

1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I’m caught in between
Countin’
1, 2, 3
Peter, Paul & Mary
Gettin’ down with 3P
Everybody loves ***
Countin’

Babe, pick a night
To come out and play
If it’s alright
What do you say?

Merrier the more
Triple fun that way
Twister on the floor
What do you say?

Are – you in
Livin’ in sin is the new thing (yeah)
Are – you in
I am countin’!

1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I’m caught in between
Countin’

Peter, Paul & Mary
Gettin’ down with 3P
Everybody loves ***
Countin’

Three is a charm
Two is not the same
I don’t see the harm
So are you game?

Lets’ make a team
Make ‘em say my name
Lovin’ the extreme
Now are you game?

Are – you in
Livin’ in sin is the new thing
Are – you in
I am countin’!

1, 2, 3
Not only you and me
Got one eighty degrees
And I’m caught in between

Everybody loves ***

What we do is innocent
Just for fun and nothin’ meant
If you don’t like the company
Let’s just do it you and me
You and me…
Or three….
Or four….
On the floor!
