The music sections deals only with the ITZ era and does not count the money from the previous albums and tours.She's still got it A quick check of Britney by the numbers shows the star remains on top, financially. Phew. By JANE RIDLEY Thursday, March 22nd 2007, 4:00 AM Britney Spears may well have found her stint in rehab taxing, but her biggest challenge lies ahead: Settling her divorce from Kevin Federline and fighting the complex custody battle over their sons. There's good news for the troubled pop tart. With an estimated net worth of $100 million, Britney can easily afford the $48,000 bill for her month-long stay at one of the nation's poshest rehab centers. Though her fortune will be slightly dented by an expected seven-figure payoff to Federline, she'll still have enough to cover almost a lifetime of treatment at the $1,600-a-night Promises Center in Malibu, Calif. But the star - who not too long ago was on top of the music world - would be wise not to hang up her microphone for too long. "The best thing Britney can do right now is take some time away for herself and make a great record," says Joe Levy, executive editor of Rolling Stone magazine. "The old saw is that she's just one hit away from a comeback. Side by side is the saying that there's no such thing as bad publicity." The drop in sales of her previous albums doesn't necessarily mean she has fallen from favor, because record sales have declined across the board, says Levy. "I think it is still possible for her to run her business." And what a business it is. Divided into a string of separate companies, such as Britney Touring, One More Time Music, Fairy Zone Productions and Britney Online, it's more of a corporation. "She's a very wealthy woman and protected by an ironclad prenuptial agreement," says financial expert Lea Goldman, associate editor of Forbes magazine, which recently ranked Spears as the 12th-richest woman in entertainment. Fortunately for Spears, her income will continue to grow, whether she goes back to work or sits on her butt. Under the terms of her 2005 perfume contract with Elizabeth Arden, she gets a guaranteed sum of $2.54 million this year, even if, as Goldman predicts, sales fail to meet expectations. "Midnight Fantasy, the latest perfume in the range, looks like it's going to be a bomb," says Goldman. "It came out at Christmas around the time she started spiraling out of control. "The campaign isn't working because the gorgeous advertisements of a blond, thin Britney are completely out of sync with the tired, out-of-shape mess we are seeing in the tabloids." The headache won't be the star's, however. Even if it were, the hundreds of thousands of dollars she'll collect from other sources make the perfect tonic. Royalties, merchandising, past endorsement deals and revenue from properties produce hefty annual handouts and, wisely invested, will earn large amounts of interest. Britney's finances are supervised by an elite group of bankers and accountants who have skillfully managed her funds for a number of years. Sources say she follows their advice to the letter. What a shame they don't have as much influence over their wayward client's private life. INSIDE BRITNEY'S FORTUNELeaked documents drawn up by the savvy legal team that prepared Britney's premarital agreement - plus extensive research by Forbes magazine - give a fascinating insight into the star's immense wealth, which continues to accumulate every second. MUSIC: $26.5 millionThe star's contract with Zomba Records earned her $6.72 million for her last album, "Into the Zone." The accompanying 2004 tour netted an average $413,000 a night, which led experts to estimate she made $20 million. Royalties from albums and music used in ads and films generate about $60,000 per year. PROPERTY and VALUABLES: $22.6 millionFour houses, including a $10.2 million, eight-bedroom mansion in Malibu and a $4.5 million carriage house in Kentwood (in L.A.), plus the equity from recent sales of her $6 million Manhattan penthouse apartment and the $1 million Orlando apartment she owned with old flame Justin Timberlake. She also owns vast forests in Louisiana valued at $6 million. ENDORSEMENTS: $21.6 millionSpears earned a record-breaking $9.27 million in 2001 for her three TV commercials and print ads as the face of Pepsi. She also pocketed millions from Toyota, Samsung, Nabisco, Kirin, Proactiv and Skechers, although a court fight over the four-wheeler rollerskates made in her name soured the deal. MERCH: $16.7 millionUnder the terms of her 2004 Elizabeth Arden deal, Spears earns 6% royalties on her perfume, skin-care goods and cosmetics. Her first scent, Curious, was a best seller. She is guaranteed between $1.96 million and $2.94 million per year each year until 2009, regardless of sales. Dolls, T-shirts, tour posters and keychains rake in a further $5 million. CASH IN THE BANK: $33.25 millionThe star has six high-interest accounts at banks including Credit Suisse, Citizens Bank and Signature Bank. ANOTHER BRITNEY PASSION: $333,000 worth of jewelryHer custom-designed platinum and diamond 5.21-carat rings are valued at $259,000 in the prenup papers, and her Tiffany diamond watch cost $4,000. Another expensive piece is a platinum necklace with one-carat butterfly-shaped diamond and 1.5-carat intense pink diamond at $22,700. TV, MOVIES and MAGAZINES: $6.5 millionShe earned $3.07 million for "Crossroads" and $790,000-a-time for TV specials on cable channels such as HBO and Showtime. Meanwhile People magazine paid her almost $100,000 for first photos of her first son, Sean Preston, and she has secured other lucrative print deals.

If u know anything about accounting the assets r combined with previous income
so what r her assets:
the houses 22+ mil
cash 33+ mill
future garantted income $5mil from the perfume line
her assets r like 60$mil
goin to fed-ex -20mil
net assets after divorce is 40million
The rest of the money she earned which resulted in her cash and house!! so u dont combine the 2 parts!!
who ever wrote the report isnt very financially savy
despite the iron clad pre-nup he still walks away with 1/3 of her assets!! he must have a good lawyer because he just used the kids as leverage

40 Million dollars can go a looooooong way, and that's assuming Kevin gets that whole 20 Million. So saying that it won't last long is very naive. Especially with her new album coming out, things are gonna be pouring in.

Especially with her new album coming out, things are gonna be pouring in. Naive - hardly. 40 mil can go quickly. Hopefully her mother set up some safeguards. And Kevin is not getting $20 million thanks to the pre-nup. Her upcoming album is not going to do that well. She would have to release a single that was beyond good - unbelievably good.

Exactly. You're just another hater. And this album is gonna be bigger than ever. Just you wait. And btw, that was my opinion. Not reality yet. Why don't you come down off your high horse and realize that not everything you say materializes right before your eyes.

Question: When was that pic of Spears taken with no panties in the car?
Missy Elliott says it in the new Timbo Cd and I was wondering when it was recorded..

Question: When was that pic of Spears taken with no panties in the car? Missy Elliott says it in the new Timbo Cd and I was wondering when it was recorded.. Like in November [??] I'm pretty sure... Missy: "Like Britney Spears, I wear no panties" I swear Missy loves Britney, she's mentioned her before in the "Touch It remix" with Busta Rhymes. "I'm toxic baby... like a Britney Spuurrsss." It'd be hott if Britney's first single featured her, I think they would make an amazing club banger together - especially if Timbaland produced it. Sh!t - I'm getting myself excited over my own suggestion.

Janice Dickinson is a huge Britney Spears fan!
Wacky TV modeling agency hostess Janice Dickinson is a huge Britney Spears fan!
TMZ spotted the self-proclaimed "World's First Supermodel" on Robertson Blvd. yesterday, when she was asked about Britney Spears. Janice replied, "There is no scandal, what's happened to her hair has nothing to do with the caliber of her music. She's a brilliant musician ... and she's a brilliant person."
This, from a woman wearing a red and black plaid fur-lined coat and carrying an electric green purse.

Britney Spears’ parents are to blame for her breakdown, because they pushed her into the limelight and failed to step in when she found herself in trouble, according to comedienne Sandra Bernhard. The controversial funnywoman has been a longtime critic of the pop princess, but claims she feels sorry for the former Mouseketeer’s recent plight. She says, “I’ve been doing pieces on Britney for quite a while now, and I find her kind of a touchstone in culture, and I have a great deal of empathy for her. “I think she was basically co-opted by her parents at a very young age, forced into this business. And it’s not completely her fault that she’s flipping out. “Having an eight-year-old kid myself, and knowing the vulnerability of a child and being thrown into that disgusting, slimy world of Disney. I mean, I can’t think of a more horrible thing to do to your child.”

You're clearly retarded if you think BRITNEY SPEARS can't sell. Then the music industry is really in trouble. Just because you do not agree with someone does not mean you resort to personal attacks. All you have to do is look at her sale declines from her first album to her last. She is not going to sell as much as even ITZ. It is what it is.
