Brit Not Ready For Comeback, Says Former Manager

Posted on Mon Jan 12, 2009 11:35 AM PDT

Britney Spears britnotready.jpg

Brit's former manager Johnny Wright has told OK Magazine:

    "A comeback is not what I wish for Britney. What I wish for her is to settle down and find real happiness."

No doubt Jamie Spears is looovvvvving this scathing interview!

You may know Johnny Wright from P. Diddy's Making the Band and as the "former manager" who sued Brit last year for allegedly breaking her contract with him in 2003.

He went on to tell the mag:

    “All her essential relationships have been torn apart. She’s been divorced twice, she doesn’t have custody of her kids, she’s being pushed back into being a money machine. I want her to be happy in her heart, then go back to the business because she wants to, not because people are convincing her she has to, or that it would be good therapy for her.”

And regarding the competition, he compares the pop princess to the queen of pop:

    “Madonna really wants to do it. Seeing Britney do it by the numbers isn’t a good sign. It means she might not want it as much as those around her do.”

Is his assessment fair?



Is Britney ready or not? Or is Johnny just pissed he's no longer Brit's manager?

He is so right! It would be good for her to take some time for herself and her boys, She missed so much in their little lives and you can never get those days back once their gone. She is very talented and young so she has plenty of time to get back into it if she WANTS to.

I think that his opinion is very insightful and caring.
Maybe he is right, she needs more time for herself before climbing back on the horse.

ANy NEw Mother of 3 and 2 year olds should be with their toddlers everyday not on a world tour. Not a normal healthy loving family family life. She is just a manufactured money mmaking machine.

What's the matter didn't the dorky music sell. So now it's time for some DRAMA and a hard luck story. Feel sorry for me people and buy my shit so I can drive around in expensive cars.

ummmmmmm ... isn't this the same guy who tried to sue her? yea he really cares. Britney and her family knows whats right for her not some old manager she hasn't spoken to in years. She was proven healthy enough for a tour (remember in october they had a meeting) and i read an article that kevin and the boys are going to be with her for her north american leg of the tour (march-june) and then she's in europe till sept. i think but im not sure. I think she'll be fine. We can only speculate only britney and her family knows whats really going on and it's their busisness so lets leave it to them. and to 12:52, her album is #1 for the 3rd week in a row on the world charts (shes in the top 5 for america but if you havent noticed our economy is kinda crappy). give her a break. shes a working mom. what about madonna who goes on tour and has 3 kids? and how does this guy even know how she feels about the comeback? idk it all seems werid to me. like he's not being sincere ... he wants his job back.

Most of America looks at her and knows this already just by the brain dead look in her fas eyes. And 1:04 I hope your mommy runs away and leaves you like Garbage so you will know what Shitneys kids must feel like. WORKING MOM ?? BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.. LOSER SHE SEES THEM 2 TIMES A FRICKEN WEEK SHE IS FAR FROM A WORKING MOTHER. SHE IS THE POOREST EXCUSE OF A MOTHER I HAVE EVER HEARD OF AND I CANT WAIT FOR KARMA TO FINISH THIS USELESS W H O R E OFF.

She shouldn't be doing this comeback now.
She is very very selfish, and so is her manager. If she really is mentally unwell that why would they be telling her to do this? This would be the worst thing. What she should be doing is, taking care of those poor little boys that she brought into the world. They are still very young, and she shouldn't be missing them grow up for a second.
It's not like she needs the money. If she had any maternal feelings at all she would want to be with those kids night and day, everyday. If she is well enough for this comeback, then she is well enough to look after her kids.
Karma is a bitch and she will pay bigtime for her selfish ways. Her kids will hate her when they're older.
She is not a good parent, anyone who says she is, is an idiot, and just like her.

What have we been telling you stupid fuucking Britards for the longest time now!?! You just stick your fingers in your ears and make up some ridiculously exaggerated bullshit and call it the gospel truth! Keep buying the lies the Shitney Machine is selling while we continue to laugh at your blind ignorance!



Posted by: MissNYC

Wow, you know I'm no fan of Britney, but some of you really scare me as human beings. You don't even know her, how can you be so hateful? Why do you care SO much to put so much energy into it?

I've seen plenty of her 'fans' talk lots of nasty shit about anyone with a different opinion and other stars too! The are just as nasty as anyone else out there! Seen lots of threats and even death threats from them too, so don't delude yourself that it's one sided!



Posted by: take a break brit

I saw her perform on a couple of the morning shows and she has no spark. She can't even dance good right now let a lone sing. She should go away and raise those kids they grow up and ya gonna be sorry when they don't turn out they way your fairy tale thought they would.

some of you should listen to her beautiful song "my baby" it's really beautiful about her and her kids. they love her. she loves them. get over yourselves.

OH HELL NO!!!

He is right. She is not ready. Pushing to had and to soon will cause her to have another breakdown. and it will all be due to her family. They are to money hungry. Wish she could live a happy live.

Britney has not been divorced twice. She has been divorced once and had her 24 hour marriage annuled. They are two different things. What did Johnny Wright ever do for her? Nothing.



Posted by: Anonymous

Her father has stepped into Sam Lufti's shoes in capitalizing on her talent. I first thought he would help her, but now is seems obvious he is into making money from her. Very very sad and now she does not have a chance to get full custody of those boys. I would never trade lives with her.

I love the side ad that says Britney's IQ is 105 - geez that is pretty dumb. Hopefully that is just some stupid catch, ppl are gonna click thinking hell ya Im smarter than Britney IQ 105 Spears.

AdBlock is a beautiful thing! Pages load faster too! And 105 sounds about right, if not on the generous side!

it's her job to do the tour to promote her album. so many staff and crew behind the scenes that are behind the album, if she just stay home and be a mom, it would disappoint every effort and support that everyone is giving her. same thing like a markerting job.. you gotta go out of town or country sometimes!! and how many mother arent spending time with their 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 years old toddlers because they have to work? think!! not everyone is lucky enough to be a stay home mom and spend every little minute with their toddlers.



Posted by: susan

I agee with everything Johnny Wright said. I've been saying basically the same thing. I think it's too much too soon and she's really not that into it. If she makes it through the whole tour without cancelling alot of the dates I'll be surprised. If her performances are as lackluster as what we've seen so far she's going to get creamed by the crtics too.



Posted by: Anonymous

Her manager and her stupid little teenybopper fans are to blame for all this. These people are selfish shallow morons. They don't care about Britney as a person they just care about her as a product. fact.



Posted by: Anonymous

The point is Britney isn't like the average working mom. she doesn't need the money, but still the average working mom still spends WAY more time with her kids than Britney does. Stop making excuses she's a selfish bitch.



Posted by: Debby

12:28, if I had Brit's bod I would dance naked in front of anyone (over 18 that is) who'd want to watch. This Johnny guy may have some good points but is he bitter and trying to sabotage her. DON'T LISTEN BRIT...KEEP THE FAITH...YOU KNOW WHAT'S RIGHT!

She not ready for her Promises Malibu Treatment Center comeback yet?

to 2:39, as someone else said, Britney does not HAVE to work. As far as not being "lucky enough" to stay at home with her kids, she could have but she chose not to and she messed up her opportunities. Plus, she didn't tour or do any promos for her last album so it's not like it's absolutely necessary. However, I don't think Johnny and everyone are talking JUST about her touring. They are talking about her having a new album out as a whole and all the things that go along with it. If she didn't just put out an album, she wouldn't have to tour. I think she and the people around her just want a fast fix to repair her image, so they are not going to wait.

That man's comments are false. He is full of SH*T and BRITNEY DOES WHAT SHE WANTS. She's a strong person will only get stronger. P*SS on you if you disagree.

He has known her since she was a girl.

He sounds concerned.

LOL. Think this is a one way train wreck???? Just wait for the sequel Britney does rehab again and looses custody of the kids and her mind. Leave Hollywood and get your mind and life together--there are better things in life than being a "pop star" and not living your life to the fullest. Money and fame DO NOT buy you happiness.



Posted by: YEPO

This is one mgr that has this one pegged. In 10 years she will still be trying to do the "teeny bopper" years like poor old haggy madonna. When the time is out is it out.

OMG you mean Britney could actually sing??? LOL the only one from Disney that has any PIPES and can ACTUALLY sing is Cristina A. Didn't Cristina win accolades for singing and not for a lets show our t and a and pretend to sing with voice???



Posted by: Go Home

If pappa Jamie wasn't around....Britney would most likely be six feet under. It is time for her to go home and leave the Hollywood crowd behind they will eat her alive. The only ones who think she is still a star are the tweens or those who want to see her like Anna Nichole.

Expert Report Damages: $5,000,000.00

Status: Still in discovery.

Who are you kidding? She is NOT bigger than ever. She's talentless and all marketing hype. Johnny Wright is dead on the money - he knows what the reality is. More power to him for giving a kind, honest, and generous appraisal.



Posted by: Britney is a joke

Finally! Someone in the industry makes sense about this pathetic has-been! Britney will be dead by the end of the summer because she isn't ready and she remains a laughing stock of the entire world. People aren't into her because she is so great, they are constantly there so they can get the million dollar money shot when she flips out again.

Are you hoping Britney Spears guest stars on Modern Family?

Yes! She has a funny personality and would fit in perfectly on the ABC comedy.
No! She would be horrific on the show and would tarnish its reputation.
Don't know! But it would be a great way for the show to get even bigger ratings.
