Britney Spears' new song is called "Piece of Me."

But the most popular show on television, at least, has no interest in any pieces of this ongoing train wreck.

Asked about having Spears on American Idol as a guest judge, producer Nigel Lythgoe told Us Weekly:

"I would have had Britney Spears last year when I thought she was trying to get it all back together again."

But what about now, Nigel?

"Britney, at this moment in time, I don't think is well enough to do anything," he said. "I think she needs looking after. I think she needs to pull herself together."

Fortunately, Sam Lufti and Alli Sims are in Britney's corner.
