Britney Spears's brother, producer Bryan Spears, addressed fans of the singer and their #FreeBritney initiative, through which they demand that Britney no longer have a legal guardian. On the "As Not Seen on TV" podcast (via E! News), Bryan said it was "irritating" for the family to hear that fans are angry about the custody issue, as no one knows what is going on behind the scenes.
"It's irritating. "Even if someone comes in peace or comes up with another attitude and constantly says you have to do something, it is irritating," he said.
Bryan said Britney "always wanted to not be under the supervision of a legal guardian", but it was a decision the family made together. Britney's father, Jamie Spears, served as her legal guardian until 2019. According to E! News is temporarily serving in this role Jodi Montgomery, member of the singer's team.
"We are somewhat united, but not all of us agreed with the decision. We all had our opinion. But in the end, I think we made the right choice. " - said Bryan.
The court will assess the custody issue and Bryan says the family "hopes for the best". Likewise, Britney's sister, Jamie Lynn Spears spoke publicly about her mental health emphasizing that no one has the right to mock or talk about someone's health.
Spears u vu nën kontrollin e kujdestarëve ligjorë në vitin 2008 pas problemeve me shëndetin mendor. Babai i saj mori të gjithë të drejtën për të menaxhuar çështjet financiare dhe jetën e përditshme të këngëtares. Që prej vitit 2019, kujdestarja e saj ligjore është Jodi Montgomery. Sipas Forbes, për çdo vit shërbimi, ata kanë tërhequr 1.1 milion dollarë.
Një kujdestar ligjor caktohet zakonisht për njerëzit që janë të paaftë të marrin vendime vetë, kanë çrregullime mendore ose janë në moshë të madhe. Pavarësisht problemeve me shëndetin mendor në 2008, gjatë këtyre 12 viteve në kujdestari, Britney Spears ka publikuar katër albume, ka grumbulluar 140 milionë dollarë nga performancat në Las Vegas Residency, ka nxjerrë në treg produkte për modën dhe parfume si edhe ka shërbyer si anëtare jurie në X Factor.
Meanwhile, referring to being under guardianship, Spears cannot drive, vote, marry, have children, meet children, spend her income or speak publicly without the legal guardian's approval. Fans are of the opinion that Britney is being mistreated by the people around her.
