Police called to Spears' home in custody dispute
Officers trying to resolve matter 'peacefully by court order'

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22497895/

LOS ANGELES - Police were called to the residence of Britney Spears late Thursday in a custodial dispute involving her children, a police spokesman said.

Around 8 p.m. police were called to Spears' Los Angeles residence, said Officer Jason Lee. At 10 p.m., the police were still there, he said.

The call involved a "family custodial dispute that we are trying to resolve ... peacefully by court order," said Lee.

Lee declined to give more details.

Spears and ex-husband Kevin Federline are fighting over custody of their you sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James.

Federline has temporary custody of the children because Spears, who has limited visitation rights, has defied court orders. The two were married in October 2004 and divorced in July.

Calls to attorneys for Federline and Spears were not immediately returned.

UPDATE: http://www.tmz.com/2008/01/04/cops-called-to-britneys-house-for-custody-dispute/

Us is reporting K-Fed's bodyguards went to pick up Sean and Jayden at Britney's home this evening after her scheduled visitation, but Spears refused to turn the kids over. Police were then called. Britney's soon-to-be ex- attorney Sorrell Trope told the mag, "In a normal case when someone shows up with a certified court order saying the kids need to be somewhere else, the police see to it that the order is obeyed. But that is in a normal case."

1. How does one screw up being rich?
I can understand being down and out and having problems. I know that one. But, having the world served to you on a silver platter and managing to royally **** everything up, that's beyond me.

2. Comes with the money
and a false sense of entitlement because of it. It doesn't help that the people that surround her have her convinced that everything she does is right and that she's completely justified, all the time.

I'm guessing here.

I don't know.

(Notice that not knowing didn't keep me from opening my big mouth, though. I've really gotta watch that)

4. escalating, apparently...
UPDATE: Another ambulance, more fire trucks and several additional police cars have just rolled up to Britney's house. One person on the ground described the situation to us as "scary."

Holy Kramer vs. Kramer!

TMZ is at Britney's house in Beverly Hills as several more police cars, fire trucks, an ambulance and a police chopper have now all descended on the popwreck's humble abode. Don't let 'em git me!!

We've learned Spears has refused to turn her two sons back over to their daddy tonight, as ordered by the court. LAPD tells us they've been called to the home to deal with the family custody dispute.

Sources confirm to TMZ that K-Fed's attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan was at Britney's home earlier, but has since left.

6. Don't even joke about it.
If she ran, she'd win by a landslide. The celeb-obsessed America public would carry her into the White House on their shoulders. And they'd make Paris Hilton the Veep.

Thank God for the 35 year age limit.

8. Am I the only one amazed that K-Fed has bodyguards?
1) That he thinks he NEEDS bodyguards, and
2) That he can actually AFFORD to have bodyguards

9. Of course he has bodyguards.
Someone has to protect him from the splash of hot fat from the deep fryer.

15. Why, this is so out of the ordinary for her! How can this be?
What has the world come to when our darling Ms Spears has to be taken, strapped to a gurney, to the nuthouse? My faith in humanity is hereby no longer.

:(

:cry:
