Her father, Jamie Spears, runs Britney Spears\u2019 financial affairs but stopped making day-t0-day decisions for his daughter several years ago, according to court records.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDeath to the greedy patriarchy that has been doing this to women for centuries,\u201d Madonna railed. \u201cThis is a violation of human rights! Britney we coming to get you out of jail!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In late June, Spears spoke out in court, asking a Los Angeles County judge to end a 13-year conservatorship that governs everything from how Spears spends her money to how she structures her daily routine. Her statement, read in open court, marked the first time Spears has spoken out on the arrangement.<\/p>\n<p>In her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2021\/06\/24\/1009858617\/britney-spears-transcript-court-hearing-conservatorship\">statement to the court<\/a>, Spears alleged that she has been the subject of abuse. The team of conservators, ostensibly charged with protecting her and her finances, has been taking advantage of the situation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI shouldn\u2019t be in a conservatorship if I can work. The laws need to change,\u201d Spears told the court. \u201cI truly believe this conservatorship is abusive. I don\u2019t feel like I can live a full life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last week, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny denied a request to remove Spears\u2019 father \u201cfrom his role as a conservator of his daughter\u2019s $60 million estate, making official a&nbsp;November request to allow a trust to act as co-conservator of her estate,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2021\/07\/01\/entertainment\/britney-spears-motion-denied-on-co-conservator\/index.html\">according to CNN<\/a>. That decision, however, was unrelated to Spears\u2019 June request, which will be handled next week, at a hearing on July 14.<\/p>\n<p>Since her testimony, there has been some movement among her conservators. Spears\u2019 father, Jamie, denied a request from his co-conservator, Jodi Montgomery, to use Britney\u2019s funds to cover private security \u2014 security Montgomery says she needs because of the public attention the case is now receiving. In addition, \u201cSpears\u2019 lawyer, Samuel Ingham, earlier this week&nbsp;<u>f<\/u>iled court documents to resign as her counsel after 13 years. The singer\u2019s longtime manager, Larry Rudolph, also resigned on Monday after Spears expressed her desire to go on an indefinite performing hiatus,\u201d per Fox.<\/p>\n<p>Spears\u2019 conservatorship has become something of celebrity cause, in addition to Madonna, \u201cJustin Timberlake, Mariah Carey, Halsey, Rose McGowan, Jesse Tyler Furguson and more have all taken to social media to show their support as the hitmaker seeks other avenues to gain her freedom,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/madonna-britney-spears-conservatorship-violation-human-rights\">according to Fox News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Madonna\u2019s support for Spears is unsurprising, though. The singer has been \u201csticking up\u201d for the teen pop idol for years, according to Newsweek. She even defended Spears back in 2008, when Spears was struggling, publicly, with what appeared to be severe mental health issues.<\/p>\n<p>I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that she was never allowed to have a childhood,\u201d Madonna said at the time. \u201cShe didn\u2019t get to grow up and make mistakes privately and try things out and just be a kid and be innocent. She\u2019s been watched, judged, and been under a microscope since she\u2019s been a teenager. It\u2019s hard to evolve that way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
