Britney vs. Mr Spears: He Said, She Said

You know when people in your house are really aren't talking to each other and they do the silly thing where they tell a third person to give a message to the person they are mad at?...yeah, it's kinda like that...

"When Larry Rudolph talked Britney into going into rehab, he was doing what her mother, father and team of professionals with over 100 years of experience knew needed to be done. She was out of control. Larry was the one chosen by the team to roll up his sleeves and deliver the message, to help save her life.

The Spears family would like to publicly apologize to Larry for our daughter's statements about him over the past few weeks. Unfortunately, she blames him and her family for where she is at today with her kids and career. Larry has always been there for Britney. For this, we will forever be grateful to him."

"I am praying for my father. We have never had a good relationship. It's sad that all the men that have been in my life do not know how to accept a real woman's love. I am concentrating on my work and my life right now."

I have more empathy with the father than I do the daughter. Except I think I would have rolled up my own damn sleeves if I was the father in this sad story. Has anyone made the stretch yet as far as Mr.Rudolph being chosen to be the front man in the efforts to drag Britney out of the foggy night?
