Britney Spears

These days, Britney Spears has attained full-blown icon status and been granted admission into the pantheon of pop gods alongside Madonna and Michael Jackson.

But it wasn't all that long ago that it looked as though Spears was headed for the kind of tragic flameout that's all too common among stars who hit the big time while still in their teens.

Back in February, Kevin Federline demanded more child support from Britney Spears.

He argued that the $20,000 he receives each month isn't enough support for the two preteen sons, of whom he shares custody with Britney.

Earlier this year, Kevin Federline demanded that Britney Spears give him more child support. He claims that as their two sons grow older, $20,000 per month is no longer enough.

Now, Britney has been ordered to pay out $110,000 to her ex.

Though some misguided individuals may think that Britney Spears is an awful mother, she's actually one of the best celebrity parents out there. Yes, really.

She treasures her time with her sons, and she's always happy to share that on social media.

Has Wendy Williams finally done it, folks?

Has she finally sunk to the lowest point to which a human being can sink?

It's 2018 and Kevin Federline is still in the news.

We just felt a need to state that incredible fact prior to delving into the reason why Kevin Federline is in the news at this current moment.

Last month, it was revealed that Britney's ex Kevin Federline has asked for more child support. He is the father of both of her amazing sons.

While Britney treasures her children and would do anything for them, a lot of people are wondering how her current, substantial child support payments are falling short.

Our younger readers may not be familiar with the velour track suit come to life that is Kevin Federline, so let us fill you in the saga of the ultimate baby daddy:

Federline married Britney Spears back in 2004, and she's been paying for that mistake ever since.
