This is more of a cross-update. I have blogged about Ms. Spears and her prenup on a number of occasions (most recently, here and here), and I blogged about Amy Winehouse and her out-of-control behavior here. Ms. Spears has been exhibiting similar behavior, and her family actually did step in -- her father was appointed as conservator of her estate, and his position has been extended to July 31 (per this article). (Conservator is really just another name for guardian.) This article has a bit more information about the scope of the conservatorship.
