13-year conservatorship
Britney Spears has asked a judge to end the conservatorship that has controlled her life and finances for the past 13 years, yesterday telling a court she just "wants her life back".
Addressing a hearing in LA, the 39 year-old said she feels she's been "exploited" & treated like a slave.
The singer told an LA she doesn't have access to a passport or any money, and has been put on drugs, including lithium.
She added being totally controlled by all of those around her.
Her father has been the guardian of her affairs since 2008, after a series of public breakdowns.
Lawyers for Jamie Spears dismiss criticism of his actions.
Sky News' Greg Milam was listening in to the hearing:
Harriet Alexander, Senior Online Reporter for the Daily Mail, says Britney's testimony was shocking:
