Britney Spears Might Cancel Tour 

Britney Spears is this close to canceling her much-anticipated tour.  Britney, her dad, and Kevin Federline were all working out a deal on their own that would keep Britney’s boys near her and Kevin Federline would get paid.  Everything was going fine until Federline’s lawyers got wind of the deal.

Britney, Kevin and Jamie Spears hashed out a deal where Britney would have three bases in New Jersey, New Orleans and Los Angeles where her boys would stay while she commuted to her shows. Kevin was even going to be paid for the deal until his lawyers stepped in and objected to the whole arrangement. Now Britney is going to scrap the whole tour if her sons can’t come with her.

TMZ reports:

And here’s a fun fact. We’ve learned Britney will pay Kevin in excess of $4,000 a week for each week she’s on tour. The way the deal goes… Brit would get K-Fed his own pad in each of the three bases and he wouldn’t even have to show up to get the money! Why, you ask, would she pay him? You figure it out….
So here’s the rub: Britney, K-Fed and Jamie worked out the arrangement without the help of any of the lawyers. We’re told a week ago K-Fed’s lawyers became aware of the plan and were furious, thinking Jamie went behind their backs. Sources tell us K-Fed’s lawyers have said they object to the plan but won’t specifically say why. And Kevin apparently doesn’t have the cojones to stand up to his lawyers.

Isn’t it sad that Britney gets her life together, and has to – or is willing to pay money to be near her sons, and because lawyers object (because they aren’t getting a piece of the action) her time with her sons and tour is in jeopardy. Federline needs to man-up and tell the lawyers that he will call them when he needs them, and to butt out!
