Britney Spears is said to have gone ballistic following news that her father Jamie Spears was given power of attorney of her estate. According to reports the troubled star made two animated calls from the psychiatric ward at UCLA Medical Center after learning that Jamie Spears is now the conservator of her estate. An unstable Spears screamed: "I'm so sick of all of this they can have the goddamn house and stick it up their f**king asses. Actually, no they can't." "Nobody's taking my house. Who is my family?" Britney also said she did not want her parents near her home and threatened to take them to court. Picture: Hot Shots Worldwide

Update: The judge has issued a restraining order against shady Sam Lutfi meaning he cannot go anywhere near Britney Spears. Anybody want to start taking bets on how many yards he has to stay away from Britney? I'm going to put the over/under at 500. Breaking news: Jamie Spears is awarded temporary control of his daughter Britney's financial assets (along with lawyer Andrew Wallet). No medical decision has been made yet because the incorrect paper work was filed so either we'll be back in court on Monday or possibly the morgue if Britney checks herself out of the hospital. Hopefully it's the former.

Britney Spears' parents, Jamie and Lynne, are at court in Downtown Los Angeles to try and end the power struggle between them and Sam Lutfi over who should be in charge of Britney's well being. They could ask that control be given to them or the court could appoint someone independent from the warring parties. Where is Vegas are the Cayman Islands when you need them??? I can't wait till Super Bowl Sunday to blow my salary on stupid prop bets of who will win the coin toss or how many timeouts Tom Coughlin burns in the third quarter! I need odds now!

Normally I would give a show like 'Lipstick Jungle' two episodes until it's cancelled (one if it premiers opposite anything with a talking animal) but due to the writers strike and the lack of anything remotely entertaining on TV I'm adjusting my prediction to five.

Big-screen sex symbol Eva Mendes has checked into a rehab facility to battle a substance abuse problem according to TMZ. For the past several weeks she's been staying at The Cirque Lodge outside of Sundance, Utah, the same rehab Lindsay Lohan spent several months. I'd be in rehab too If I'd starred in Ghost Rider.
