Britney Spears Reveals the Tragedy of Her Life: ‘It’s The Men, Especially Justin Timberlake!
It can be said that the low notes, sadness, or even tragedies in the life of “pop princess” Britney Spears are all associated with men.
Going through many love affairs, but not once complete
In her life, Britney Spears went through many different long and short relationships, but none of them brought a happy ending. Her current lover – a man who works as a fitness trainer named Sam Asghari, 12 years younger than her – can be considered a fairly long-term companion of Britney, they have been together since 2016.

But their years together were also when Britney was struggling to get the court to end her under guardianship. Therefore, Britney Spears’ current love affair is also subject to a lot of limitations and restraints.
A person placed under guardianship will lose a lot of autonomy and self-determination in all aspects of personal life, because basically, before the law, he is not a true adult, to be able to take responsibility for himself and his dependents (such as children).
The person placed under guardianship is considered incapable of making wise and correct decisions for his or her life, and is also capable of making wrong decisions that affect others.
What led to Britney Spears (now 39 years old) having to endure 13 years of living in guardianship? The answer needs to turn over the events that happened since she began motherhood in her marriage to dancer Kevin Federline (married in 2004; divorced in 2007). Britney has two children from this only marriage in her life (up to this point).
Previously, in January 2004, Britney was in a hurry to marry a childhood friend – Jason Allen Alexander, then Britney was 22 years old. The marriage was annulled after 55 days of engagement at the church, and Britney’s request for annulment submitted to the court stated that at the time of the wedding, she was “ignorant of her actions”.

In Britney’s life, she went through an annulment of her engagement, then a brief marriage full of turmoil and suffering, causing her to experience the shocks of being deprived of custody, even custody of her children. To this day, the relationship between Britney and her two children is still very limited.
Right from the last stage of this marriage, Britney began to fall into a long slide, which eventually led to the collapse of the “pop princess” image and put her in a state of guardianship.
In February 2006, Britney became a mother for the first time for about 5 months, the image of her putting her first son – baby Sean in her lap and driving a car, causing unsafety for both mother and daughter and especially the child, caused her the first big trouble with the media – public opinion.
After giving birth to her second son in September 2006, Britney filed for divorce from Kevin Federline in November 2006. In February 2007, she went to a rehab center but only stayed for less than a day.
The next night, Britney shaved her head in a hair salon, then went to rehab centers. In the face of the uncertainties of a mother like Britney, her ex-husband won full custody of her two children.
In January 2008, Britney was hospitalized after police arrived at her home and found that the singer was under the influence of drugs. Britney continued to be deprived of visitation rights to her two children, and she had objections. After that, she had to be hospitalized for psychological treatment compulsorily because of abnormal disorders that were difficult to control.
It was from here that the court put Britney in need of a guardian, and that person was her father – Jamie Spears. Along with the court-appointed co-guardians, Mr. Jamie Spears has the right to manage all of his daughter’s assets and many other aspects of Britney’s private life. That is how a tragedy in the life of the “pop princess” began.
The apology of the “most talked about lover”
Among Britney’s ex-lovers, the most well-known to the public is singer-songwriter Justin Timberlake (now 40 years old). Witnessing Britney’s recent efforts to ask for the end of guardianship, Timberlake spoke out in support of his ex-girlfriend.
But the public still can’t forget the selfish treatment that Timberlake used to treat Britney when the two broke up. They had years together from 1998 to 2002.
Among Britney’s ex-lovers, the most well-known to the public is singer-songwriter Justin Timberlake (now 40 years old).
What is to blame on Timberlake’s side is that when the two broke up, there were rumors that Britney was unfaithful, which led to the breakup. Although this was an unfounded rumor, Timberlake immediately exploited it, turning it into the idea for the single “Cry Me A River” from his debut solo album “Justified”.
In the MV, there is the appearance of a girl who looks like Britney, the way the story is created for the MV is built in the direction of “nurturing” rumors, so that the public sees that Timberlake is suffering, that there is a “high possibility” that Timberlake has been betrayed.
Timberlake has turned the end of a love affair into a scandalous story, becoming a tool to increase the attraction of new music products, causing rumors of “Britney betraying her lover” to lurk all over the news sites, causing Britney to fall into misery.
In her 20s, stepping out of her relationship with Timberlake, Britney once received the question: “Timberlake is sharing everywhere that you broke him, what did you do to make him suffer so much?”
The singer replied: “We are all too young. It is necessary to wait and see what will come. I will always love him. Everyone has their own way of looking at a story, with their own feelings. I’m not telling him to lie, but I’m not telling him he’s telling the truth.”
In February this year, Justin Timberlake apologized for his behavior in his relationship with Britney in the past for the first time. The time to issue the apology was shortly after the release of the documentary “Framing Britney Spears”. This film analyzes the negative effects that the men who appear in Britney’s life have on her.
Shortly after the film’s release, Timberlake wrote through his personal social media account: “I deeply regret that at a time in my life, I took actions that complicated the problems that arose in Britney’s life, there were times when I said things that I shouldn’t have said, Or there were times when I didn’t dare to say things that should have been said.
I understand that there were times when I behaved badly and took advantage of the situation to arouse a negative attitude towards a woman. I feel I need to speak up now, because I want to acknowledge that I’m more mature than I was in the past.”
And the person who has made Britney suffer for the past 13 years…
On June 23, Britney presented to the court the arguments for ending her guardianship after 13 years. Guardianship has left her denied basic human rights: “This guardianship is doing me more harm than good. I deserve to live a real life.”
Since being placed under guardianship, Britney has been subject to her father’s influence in every decision she makes when it comes to matters related to property, money, career, health, and many other aspects of her personal life.
Britney and his biological father – Mr. Jamie Spears.
This is the first time Britney has spoken out publicly and directly about her current state of life. Britney’s arguments were very detailed and shocked the media – the public, increasing the wave of public opinion demanding “return of freedom” to Britney, abolishing the guardianship for her.
Currently, the parties involved have not made any comment on Britney’s allegations, but the lawyer representing Mr. Jamie Spears (Britney’s father) shared with the media on his behalf: “Mr. Jamie is very sorry to see his daughter suffer and go through so much suffering. He loves his daughter very much.”
According to Britney, the way she was treated while living in guardianship made her feel as if she was being “abused”.
First Britney has reproductive health controls, she has to wear an IUD and is not allowed to remove the ring even when she expresses her desire to have more children: “I want to get married and have children, but my current guardian doesn’t allow me to do that.”
Britney also wants to be free to travel, meet friends or sit comfortably in her lover’s car to go out, but all these seemingly small things have to be approved.
Monday Britney thinks she has to use too many drugs, even unnecessary ones. Since she herself does not have the right to make up her own mind about her health problems, she has to take the medicines that people give her, otherwise she will be considered opposed.
For example, when she said she didn’t want to perform in Las Vegas anymore, she was told by her doctor that she was showing signs of psychological instability, and Britney had to take medication to help her balance her mind:
“Taking these drugs makes me feel like I’m drunk all day, to the point where I can’t talk to my relatives clearly, soberly. My relatives do not intervene in this issue, but let people with expertise, assigned tasks, make their own decisions.”
At one point, Britney wanted to receive psychological treatment at home, but she was also refused, because the person responsible wanted her to go to a center, on the way from home to the center, Britney was followed by a paparazzi who made her feel miserable.

Tuesday Britney said she was forced to perform even if she didn’t want to. When Britney felt unwell, did not want to perform, she was often threatened by her manager, sometimes threatened with a lawsuit, once falsely reported to the treating doctor, that she was refusing to cooperate, refusing to take medication:
“It feels scary. The only thing I could relate to in my situation was the image of the slaves. Those who treated me like that couldn’t get away with it so easily. I have the right to refuse to practice dance moves that I don’t like, but this alone can get me in trouble with them.”
Wednesday Britney thinks guardianship is unnecessary for her and is showing signs of abuse. Accordingly, she found that although she had the ability to work, participate in performances and earn money on her own, she was considered incapable of making basic decisions in her personal life, not being able to spend the money she earned according to her personal wishes:
“I shouldn’t be placed under guardianship, because if I can work on my own and make money, why say I’m not personally competent. This needs to change because I feel that I am living a life that is not true.
More than that, the people who are in control of my life need to be reminded that they work for me, to support me, not that I work for them and be held under their control.”
Thursday Britney argues that her father doesn’t put his daughter’s interests first, but seems to enjoy him having control over her: “My father seems to enjoy controlling his daughter to the point that it makes me feel hurt. Everything in my life needs to be approved by my father.”
Last Britney thinks she can’t speak freely in front of the media. Britney was not allowed to give an interview to the press: “I’m not allowed to say anything. But I really have the right to speak. I lied, pretended to the whole world that I was okay and happy. At first, I felt afraid to speak up. I thought that no one would believe me…”.
Britney Spears in her youth.
In fact, in 2014, 2016, and 2019, Britney made moves to contact the court to reflect on the issues of guardianship, but did not bring significant changes. This 2021, Britney’s appearance in public court shocked the media and the public.
During the trial, the lawyer representing the guardian voiced concern about letting the trial go public, but Britney quickly retorted: “I see the trial needs to be public and everyone should listen to what I have to say.” The judge in court agreed with Britney on this, after that, the information reflected by the media shocked the public.
Thanks to Britney Spears, will the guardianship in the US change?
In fact, for a long time, the media – the public has questioned the guardianship that is being imposed on Britney. Several documentaries that exploit her life have also analyzed the contradictions in the guardianship imposed on her.
During the years of guardianship, Britney still participated in performances, earning millions of dollars, but she was considered … not being able to make basic decisions for themselves, especially those related to health and finances.
It can be said that the low notes, sadness, or even tragedies in the life of the “pop princess” Britney Spears are all associated with men.
Guardianship is a form of protection for an individual, appointed by a court, usually for people who are unable to make the best decisions for themselves, including the elderly and those with limited personal capacity. But there have long been concerns that guardianship could be abused, and the case of Britney Spears has always been cited as an example to consider.
In fact, Britney has to regularly spend her salary to pay her co-guardians, who… work for guardians, such as lawyers, employees, so that they do the same job: support… Guardian Britney!
In fact, Britney’s depression in 2006-2007 stemmed from her being stalked and exploited to the extreme by paparazzi while she was having mental health problems. Britney’s situation at that time should have been more sympathetic, that she was going through a psychological breakdown, a difficult time having given birth twice in two consecutive years.
But Britney’s whole long slide happened at the darkest moment, when the paparazzi acted like a “storm”, when respect for women was limited, when sympathy for mental health problems, or postpartum depression had not yet formed…
Britney is a rare star who has succeeded on an international scale right from her debut music product (single “… Baby One More Time”), but Britney is also a tragic star to the point of shocking public opinion. Many tragedies in her life involve the men who appeared in Britney Spears’ life.
