Britney Spears's unceremonious firing of manager Larry Rudolph has apparently led to bad feelings within her family. Yesterday, Britney's father Jamie released a statement to Page 6, expressing disappointment over Britney's treatment of Rudolph, and concern for his daughter's well-being:
When Larry Rudolph talked Britney into going into rehab, he was doing what her mother, father and team of professionals with over 100 years of experience knew needed to be done. She was out of control. Larry was the one chosen by the team to roll up his sleeves and deliver the message, to help save her life. ... The Spears family would like to publicly apologize to Larry for our daughter's statements about him over the past few weeks. Unfortunately, she blames him and her family for where she is at today with her kids and career. Larry has always been there for Britney. For this, we will forever be grateful to him.
Jamie and the rest of the Spears brood may feel gratitude toward Larry for his efforts on troubled Britney's behalf, but Britney obviously doesn't. Said Britney through her rep:
I am praying for my father. We have never had a good relationship. It's sad that all the men that have been in my life do not know how to accept a real woman's love. I am concentrating on my work and my life right now.
Okay Britney, explain that one. The men that have been in your life don't know how to accept a real woman's love. And what, exactly, would "accepting a real woman's love" entail, in your opinion? Sitting there quiet and letting the "real woman" (presumably you) do whatever the hell she pleases? I think we've just gotten a little insight into the workings of your addled brain, Britney. To you, "love" means never being criticized, never being told you've done anything wrong. "You're a complete out-of-control slut with drug problems and two kids you don't pay any attention to, but it's all good, because I love you." I hate to break it to you Brit, but what you're talking about isn't love, it's cowardice. Like so many brittle, neurotic narcissists, what you really want, Britney, is to be surrounded by people who enable you - people who do nothing but kiss your ass, and tell you how great you are, how perfect in every way. "You're so hot Britney, and you're so smart, and it's so great the way you hit me with that stun-gun every thirty seconds. My uncontrollable twitches are signs of love." Get over yourself Britney - you are obviously a trainwreck, and your old man and Larry Rudolph tried to help your sorry ass, but you'd rather hang out with sycophants and assholes who lie for you. Like the friend of yours who told Page 6 this about your admission to Promises:
[Britney] had no drugs in her system when she was admitted to Promises - they [tested her] and there was nothing. She was embarrassed she had to go in there when she knew she was suffering from postpartum depression, not a drug or alcohol problem.
Sure Britney. And I suppose it was postpartum depression that made you look like this on New Year's when you infamously collapsed and had to be hauled away by dancers:
And I'm positive PPD was to blame when you were going around with Paris Hilton looking like this last fall:
Oh, and here's another rich one via the same "friend," concerning your famed head-shaving incident:
Britney's aunt had just died of cancer. She was feeling very guilty because she hadn't been there with her, she was overwhelmingly depressed and she shaved her head in solidarity.
Damn, you get depressed a lot Britney. Maybe you should see a shrink. Or Brooke Shields. Jesus Britney, how dumb do you and your friends think we are? You were forced to go into rehab against your will by Larry Rudolph and your family? You spent a month there, and went to AA meetings, because they made you? Are you an adult or a child? Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked that - we already know the answer. You're a "real woman," right Britney? The kind whose love men can't accept.
Pathetic.
