Britney Spears’ father Jamie has asked the court to allow him to give Britney an allowance. Yeah, that’s right….an allowance.

Jamie wants to give Brit a debit card loaded with $1500 a week. He wants to give her more freedom and basically give her part of her life back. Funny thing is, though, that’s $1000 less than he makes as her conservator.

Britney chose not to attend the hearing, so it’s unclear as to how she feels about this.

Here’s some even sadder news for American Idol fans. A 25-year old mother of 5 accidentally left 2 of her young children in the bathtub last week in Indianapolis leaving one to nearly drown because she was too busy watching American Idol. Luckily, the little tot survived. According to a police report, Sheila Brooks placed her youngest kids, a 3-year old and a 1-year old, in the tub and then went to another room to fetch clothes. She then watched some Idol with 2 of her older kids when she suddenly remembered about the 2 in the tub. She sent her 7-year old daughter to get them out but when she got there, the 3-year old was underwater and not moving. She called for her mom, who then performed CPR and called 911. No charges have been filed against Brooks and the kid is still in the hospital.
