Britney Spears Update: K-Fed May Testify This Afternoon, Lynne Spears Distraught, Adnan Ghalib Not Present
While Britney Spears hospitalized in Los Angeles and being monitored constantly after last night's psychotic meltdown, her ex-husband has moved to strip her of all visitation rights with their sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James.
Kevin Federline himself snuck into court this morning under the radar but left the area as the hearing adjourned, TMZ reports. He may return later as an emergency hearing in the custody case is believed to be set for 1:30 PST.
K-Fed's lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, was in court this morning at 8:30 a.m. to ask the Commissioner to strip Britney Spears of all visitation rights - at least for now. Attorney Tara Scott from the law firm of Trope and Trope is representing Britney - awkward, since the firm asked to withdraw as counsel Wednesday.
The hearing ended but is expected to resume this afternoon. Through an assistant, Mark Vincent Kaplan declined comment to reporters.
While Federline asks the court to indefinitely bar Britney Spears from visits with Sean and Jayden, Lynne Spears simply hopes people pray for her daughter.
Spears' family has been showing their support. Her dad, Jamie Spears, has been at the hospital with his daughter. Brother Bryan Spears was expected to show up today. Spears' mother, Lynne Spears, who's been in "constant contact" with the troubled singer, is en route from Kentwood, La., as is Jamie Lynn Spears.
According to Access Hollywood, Lynne Spears was "extremely distraught and crying about Britney on the phone" when contacted by their staff.
"Just say prayers," Lynne said.
Conspicuously absent from Cedars-Sinai: Mr. Adnan Ghalib, 35, who works for the celebrity photo agency called FinalPixx, and who has checked into a pair of hotels with Britney Spears over the last couple of weeks.
Sources say that as Spears was holed up in her Studio City home during her epic meltdown, Adnan Ghalib was not present - nor has he visited her at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center where she was hospitalized early Friday.
When asked about Spears Friday, Adnan Ghalib would not comment.
UPDATE: As of 2:45 PST, the court hearing is over, and K-Fed has been awarded sole legal and physical custody of the boys until January 14.
We'll see what contact Britney Spears will have with Sean and Jayden as of that date. Kaplan declined comment on what was decided, but said: "There are no winners here. We are not happy about any of the events that have happened."

Britney is all messed up because of her own doings. Nobody made her do any of the acts she has committed. It is a pitiful way for a Multi-millionare to live. There are millions of people who live paycheck to paycheck and live a happy life. Does britney even share her money with charities that help people?, I doubt it. But, i'm sure that mutt she carries gets fed better than the typical homeless person on the street!"Do unto others as they have done unto you"!! Maybe in her next life Britney will be a good person, one that appreciates life and doesn't just live through it.

BRITNEY NEEDS TO FACE REALTIY AND GET THE HELP SHE REQUIRES. ALSO TAKE TIME OUT FOR HERSELF, GET HER PRIORITIES IN ORDER. AT THIS TIME K-FED IS THE BETTER PARENT. REMEMBER HE WAS IN A PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIP AND BRITNEY INTERVEINED. HOW BITTER SWEET SHE NO LONGER HAS HIM OR HER CHILDREN. ALSO, SHE SHOULD CONDUCT HERSELF I..E. CLOTHING DRESS LIKE A RESPECTFULL PARENT AND CHANGE HER WAYS SHE CAN PULL THROUGH THIS.

Brittany is suffering from postpartum anxiety & depression. When u are in this state there is nothing anyone can say or do to make you feel better. You are a train wreck waiting to happen. Believe me I have been thru it. U feel as thro U are alone and everyone is out to get you. Even thro that is not the case. Try'n to make her understand and getting her thru it will be hard. I pray for her but isolating from her children is not right she is still there mother and she needs them. Im not saying for her to be alone with them but she needs that love n hope from their little faces. We can preach and we judge but we are all human and no one has the right to say she deserves this for we are all sinners..

Most women that love their children act crazy when they are threatened about losing them and someone restricts their contact with their children.

My heart goes out to Britney Spears. No matter what mistakes she has made or bad choices she has made, she is still a child of God. Instead of making judgments about her and joining in with all of the slander, I say we do something constructive for her. If we all would pray for her like her Mom asked then maybe we would see different results. There is power in prayer and Britney needs our prayers. I have never been a Britney fan or have really listened to her music, I just love people. When I read articles, every day, about Britney and how she has been deteriorating it breaks my heart and I know that it breaks God's heart. She is His child and He loves her. Our job is to PRAY!!!!!! Pray that Britney will get well, get in touch with who she is and become that person God intends for her to be.
Enough is enough! Britney you have my love and prayers!!!

If people want to see Britney get better, leave her alone. The Poparazzi needs to stop and the magazines back off. I think every one should boycott everything that has something to say. LEAVE HER ALONE, LE HER GET BETTER

I agree with most of the positive comments about Britney. Why don't people stop critizing the girl and leave her to heal.It would really be supportive if the media stop dragging the poor girls name through the dirt, all dis crap contributes to the depression she's going through. Nasty comments and negative remarks about her as a person. What she needs is some LOVE AND SUPPORT even from her fans. Even if that was possible, it could makes a difference. When someone is counting on you to heal. It helps to push that person forward. With time, she'll get there. LOVE AND PEACE!
