Angry at being forced into Promises rehab when there was obviously nothing was wrong with her, Britney axed manager Larry Rudolph last Friday. Yesterday, Britney’s father, Jamie Spears, released a statement to Page Six supporting Larry.

“When Larry Rudolph talked Britney into going into rehab, he was doing what her mother, father and team of professionals with over 100 years of experience knew needed to be done. She was out of control. Larry was the one chosen by the team to roll up his sleeves and deliver the message, to help save her life.”

“The Spears family would like to publicly apologize to Larry for our daughter’s statements about him over the past few weeks. Unfortunately, she blames him and her family for where she is at today with her kids and career. Larry has always been there for Britney. For this, we will forever be grateful to him.”

Britney Spears’ response through her rep read,

“I am praying for my father. We have never had a good relationship. It’s sad that all the men that have been in my life do not know how to accept a real woman’s love. I am concentrating on my work and my life right now.”

Unless we live in fantasy land, real women don’t go around flashing their vagina, swapping clothes with dancers in a club, shave their legs poolside in a public bathroom, shave their heads or swing umbrellas at people. I could be wrong though. I haven’t seen a flesh and blood woman ever since I was banned from the girl’s shower at the gym. I was just doing research. Sexy research.

The banner is of Britney Spears trying on a hat on a hat because, frankly, she’s retarded.
