What's with her face or expressions these days? Bad makeup? Or a haircut that just doesn't work for her? I know very little about her, but I remembered her with a bit more of a sweeter face, I don't know.

From what I'm reading about the Jamie Lynn podcast, it doesn't actually seem that bad? I mean I haven't watched it (don't have spotify lol) but from the summations and articles it seems like she got some much needed PR training on the subject. The knife story was apparently "taken out of context" but if you can't even bother to include said context in your book then why bother sending it to print? Either way, it's much kinder to Britney than she's been as of late.
Part of me wants to give this girl some grace because, yeah, I don't think she is actually lying about the trauma she went through because Britney herself has corroborated itβand honestly, coming from someone with asshole parents, who wouldn't be an asshole child being stuck around parents like hers?βbut the other part of me is like, ok, you're out here doing podcasts to basically promote your book that talks about your sister at length while she's publicly eviscerating you after lying about her sending you gifts prior to her being freed; obviously you're going to recontextualize everything as if this is also in her best interest too so you don't look like an asshole. She's also not being entirely truthful about the trust going to Britney's boys. The docs showed JL would recieve it in its entirety upon Britney's death to be distributed to Britney's children at her discretion, which is an absurd amount of privilege for a grantor.
Speaking strictly business, I have no idea who thought it would be a good idea to release it so soon after the conservatorship hearing and before Britney and JL had a chance to talk or reconcile. Someone Lou Taylor made a gamble that this was going to sell more on the Britney hysteria alone, but I'm not sure that's paying off.

Rosengart really is a king. Jamie Lynn really thought this was the week for her to open her trash mouth.

Don't forget though that part 2 is apparently where they get more into it - and Britney specifically - especially with alleged "texts." But this TMZ article from "sources close to JL" sums up everything for me - www.tmz.com/2022/01/18/jamie-lynn-spears-thinks-britney-spiraling-disturbed/TBH, I think Jamie (and Lou if she's in cahoots with her, which seems likely) all along was trying to push Britney to respond to all of her nonsense and then be able to say that Britney is 'unhinged' and 'spiralling.' Very calculated to me. If anything, it appeared as if JL tried to backtrack a million times in the first part and couldn't keep her story straight. Not to mention, new Rosengart docs have appeared to confirm that she (and her gross husband) did benefit greatly in many ways from Britney's $$$

@ Britney's addition to her last post. I can't pretend to understand what she is talking about most of the time, but it is riveting.

I find it very, very sad. She is obviously unwell and has been completely mishandled by those people in the conservatorship. Iβm glad her mom hasnβt responded to anything publicly. Her family needs to go away as fast as they can. All of this is not good for her.

Her family needs to go away as fast as they can. All of this is not good for her. Good luck with that. The Spears family canβt actually use her for money anymore but in name only, and Britney had her ball gag ripped off. I hate that a part of me finds this so amusing because at the end of the day it is pretty sad. These people deserve it, but not if itβs coming at her own expense. What burns me the most is that I think she really does need help unpackingβ¦ I mean idk, her whole f**king life from the sound of it, but the conservatorship burned her on therapy and doctors that she probably does need. And I canβt even blame her, but itβs a lose-lose. I donβt even say that as an indictment of her, I just genuinely worry about her because she deserves better.

Yeah, what we're not gonna do is go back into the "Britney is unwell", "Britney is crazy", "Britney is unhinged", etc. stuff. That is so degrading. It's one thing to say she could probably use a real therapist to help her get through a lot of the issues and trauma of the last 13 years, but just because she is finally letting this all out does not make her "unwell." The stigma surrounding her is just awful, she can't make a move without someone psycho-analyzing her without actually knowing.
Could you imagine having your voice stifled for 13 years and gone thru what she went thru? You'd probably want to tell a lot of people to "f**k off" too. She's allowed to let it out.
You may disagree with the way she's going about it but her expressing her frustration and anger does not make her "unwell."

The way something is spilled every week... what a nasty family. Anddd this is my point too. But Britney is the "unwell" and "unhinged" one for making it known how she feels about these truly awful, terrible people.

"Britney is free! Yay!"
"Britney's not being free the way ***I*** want her to be! Annoying!"
Is essentially what this has all become. It's funny how "fans" were so sympathetic to her being locked up for 13 years in this and now think they have the right to judge how she's dealing with it.

I donβt think saying sheβs unwell is saying the same thing as sheβs crazy. In context that post seemed to be coming from a place of concern. Calling her crazy or unhinged is disrespectful as fuck though, yeah, but nobody except the bitter Xtina stans are saying that.

JL has made it a point in all these interviews and the book to defend Jamie while at the same time sh*tting on Lynne.
I wouldn't be surprised if Britney was still a tiny bit open to reconciling with her mom but not JL or Jamie.

I wish she would stop addressing this on IG. It's starting to get sad as f**k. Agreed it just makes her look bad too. The best thing would have been to address it once saying itβs untrue and then not giving it more press.

She literally has no support system.
And the only one she did have was literally written into the conservatorship.
No one should be surprised at what weβre seeing.
Sheβs NEVER healed.

As long as the people close to her continue to trash her in public, of course sheβll respond in kind. Idk why people are so adverse to Britney continuing to reply publicly. She was silent for 13 years. Woman has a lot to say.

I feel like she wouldnβt be saying anything though if Jamie didnβt just drop a book trashing her. Sheβs never been able to control her own narrative. Not even before the C-Ship. She probably does want to stay quiet but then opens her phone and reads the latest headline.

There was another court hearing yesterday. Rosengart had submitted a new court filings that go into detail about Jamie's alleged wrongdoings. Despite Team Con being uncooperative, a lot was discovered, including the fact that Jamie made at least $6.3 million from the conservatorship and spent $30 million in legal fees. Here is a nice summary:
As for the court hearing itself, it was very tense. Here is a nice summary (with an article link) of what happened:
Also, in case anyone has any doubt about what this conservatorship was always about, Jamie's lawyer makes it very clear when he said the quiet part out loud:

She actually does look like Ted Cruz oh my god??? No, but like, this is something I would have never seen or come to a conclusion on on my own, but now that someone has pointed it out... Are we sure JL isn't just Ted Cruz in a wig?? I cannot unsee it. My brain cannot process this.
