Britney Spears’ Medical Records Sought in Lawsuit

A company suing pop star Britney Spears for cutting them out of a perfume deal is trying to gain access to her medical records to prove she can’t testify. At issue is the court-ordered conservatorship she is still under after her behavior in 2007-08, which she is citing as the reason for not giving a deposition. Her father, Jamie, and attorneys control Spears’ affairs. Britney will not be required to give a deposition to Brand Sense, which claims that it helped negotiate a perfume deal for Spears but was cut out of profits. Brand Sense wanted to see records proving Spears couldn’t testify. But L.A. Superior Court Judge Reva Goetz ruled that Brand Sense has no standing. [Photo: WENN.com]

Dancing With The Stars Praised, Assailed For Chaz Bono Casting

The casting of Chaz Bono on Dancing With The Stars has sparked serious debate. That watershed moment for the gay and lesbian community has been hailed by many, calling it a breakthrough and a triumph for diversity in America. “Chaz Bono joining the cast of a series like Dancing With The Stars would be a tremendous step forward for the American public to recognize that transgender people are another wonderful part of the fabric of our culture,” said GLAAD . However, the move has prompted backlash from critics as well. A spokesperson for the Media Research Center, which “seeks to bring balance to the news media and prevent liberal bias from undermining traditional American values” says that Bono’s addition to the DWTS Season 13 cast is taking things too far. “Whether it’s Glee or Dancing With the Stars , this is Hollywood’s insistence on tearing down traditional families,” said Dan Gainor, VP of Business & Culture. “Parents now more than ever must realize they cannot let their kids watch TV without supervision or risk advocating lifestyles that most do not approve of.” Your comments are encouraged below.
