Britney Spears custody battle
p2pnet news | Music:- Britney Spears’ Malibu mansion now looks safe from the ravages of the bush fires which have been sweeping southern California.
Hollywood celebrities, “maintain second homes in the Malibu area,” says Guardian Unlimited, going on:
Others frequent its sushi bars and even rehab clinics such as Promises, where Britney Spears and Lindsey Lohan were treated and which was evacuated.
Olivia Newton-John, who starred opposite John Travolta in the film Grease, was among the first to be evacuated at the weekend as hotels in beachfront towns filled up with well-heeled refugees from the flames. Cher and Mel Gibson also had to flee to safety.
Several of the evacuees have moved into the notorious celebrity hangout Chateau Marmont. For those unable to pay for such exclusive refuges, the billionaire record producer David Geffen invited firefighters and volunteer workers yesterday to stay for free in his recently renovated Malibu hotel.
‘Obscenity-laden insult’
For Spears, attention is now switching back to her parenting troubles.
She’s embroiled in a bitter fight with her ex-husband, Kevin Federline, over the custody of their two young sons, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1.
Yesterday, the two, “appeared together for the first time in their ugly custody battle were chagrined to find themselves shut out of the downtown courtroom,” says the Los Angeles Times.
There, “she repeatedly snapped at reporters and launched an obscenity-laden insult during her frequent breaks from the all-day hearing,” it says, adding:
Spears lost her visitation rights earlier this month after Gordon found that she had failed to comply with some conditions for shared custody.
He has said there is evidence that Spears is a “habitual, frequent and continuous” user of drugs and alcohol. He later withdrew the ban and allowed her to visit her sons — but only in the presence of a court-approved monitor.
Spears was to undergo random drug and alcohol tests and meet weekly with a parenting coach who would report back to the court about her parenting skills.
Spears and Federline also were prohibited from making derogatory remarks about each other in their children’s presence and from using “corporal punishment” to discipline them. Both were also ordered to complete the court’s “Parenting Without Conflict” class.
No ruling was made on Friday, says the LA Times.
