Britney Spears: I Read The Bible Every Day
Posted by Sassy Smith at 10:45 AM on March 19, 2009
Britney Spears is a grown woman and a mother of two – yet she’s often treated like a child. Perhaps it’s because her ability to function as an adult has been stunted by her early mega-success as a teen or maybe it’s because her father is now controlling almost every aspect of her life. According to sources, part of that control means Britney has to read the Bible each day.
Jamie Spears is doing whatever he can to keep his daugther on the straight and narrow. Top of his ‘to-do list’ is a Bible reading each day for Brit.
Father Spears also bans his daughter from eating junk food, Internet use, leaving the hotel unless she’s accompanied by security or meeting her ex-husband, Kevin Federline, without him or her manager.
Spears became co-conservator of Britney’s estate after her very public breakdown in 2007/2008 and that’s permanently in place.
A source said, “Jamie is determined nothing can go wrong with Britney’s comeback. He’s making sure she reads the Bible for at least an hour during her quiet time before she goes on stage and has banned her from using the internet [sic].
“He is even monitoring what she eats by insisting on none of her beloved junk food on the rider. He’s stopping her from leaving her hotel unless accompanied by a security guard and eventhough she gets on much better with her ex-husband, Kevin Federline, she isn’t allowed to speak to him without Jamie or her manager there.”
Sure, we all know Britney can get into trouble when she’s left to her own devices -her behaviour cost her no longer having custody of Sean Preston and Jayden James. However, on the other side of the coin, it’s almost as if she’s a prisoner (which she said on her MTV documentary special last year) and has no free will whatsoever. Perhaps she and her father should work out some sort of happy medium so Brit can have some independence (I mean really, the woman is 27) and her father can have some assurance that she’ll make the right choices.
Losing custody of her kids was probably (let’s hope) a big wake-up call! I think her father should loosen those puppet strings a little bit.
