I haven’t kept up on the Britney Spears drama because I think it’s gotten to this level where it’s completely out of control. I just couldn’t keep writing about all her drama because–as good as it would be for the site–I just got so tired of it.  It seemed like all her drama kept growing and nothing good was coming out of it so I took a couple months off. But now I’m writing about her because I’m hoping that this story is actually going to be the story that starts her comeback in getting healthy and doing the right things. So here’s what happened: Britney’s family has been with her the last couple of days, supposedly trying to have an intervention for her and help her. The intervention was not going so well but this morning, early, Britney was taken by ambulance to UCLA medical center. According to PEOPLE:

“She went willingly. It was like something in her heart was telling her she should go. She knew something was wrong,” confidant Sam Lutfi tells PEOPLE.

While its good to know that she is going to try and work out her mental problems, its not so good to know that someone else is still sort of mooching off of her and controlling her. I think Britney has problems letting men control her every move. Her parents are hip to that need and they are trying to get some rights over their daughter, in efforts to save her from self-destruction. TMZ reports:

We’re told Britney’s mother, father and brother have been “working closely with the LAPD for weeks” to get her back in for psychiatric care. There is now a dogfight between Britney’s family and Sam Lutfi over who will make medical decisions, however, that fight is now put on hold because the judge now makes the call.

I definitely think Britney should be controlling her own actions, but its clear that she cannot do that due to mental problems. So the question is; who should be the next person in line to make medical and mental decisions for her? I normally am not one for people stepping into celebrities lives and cleaning up their messes for them, but I do think there comes a time in some people’s lives where they need help because they just can’t do it on their own. This, I think, is one of those times for Britney. I hope her parents get some control over her so they can help her. But.. will she let them help her? I guess only time will tell.
