Larry Says Brit Had A Breakdown Because She Was Bored

Posted on Mon Nov 24, 2008 10:38 AM PDT

Britney's manager Larry Rudolph delved deep into some serious psychological analysis to come up with this one ...

He told the LA Times, in response to the interviewer politely asking if, when Brit says her life is like "jail" in her upcoming MTV doc, things really have "changed" for her since her breakdown at the end of last year/beginning of 2008:

    "There was a stretch where she became very unbusy in terms of her career. I think she got into some trouble because maybe she had too much free time on her hands. She likes to work. In many ways, she's defined by her career."

And this is the best question from the interview ...

One thing that struck me in the footage shown was that she didn’t always seem very happy. She looked sullen during quite a bit of it. Why do you think she keeps going? She's putting out another album, going on tour…

    "I think she keeps going because she knows there's a beginning, middle and end to this. She realizes that there are better times ahead. She's already in a much better place than she was not that long ago and she knows that she's going to be in a better place a month from now, six months from now, a year from now, etc. That's what keeps her going. She's doing what she loves right now. Every day she's found more happiness in her life."

Gee, I always liken my perfect life to "jail" too! It's a sure sign of happiness!



Is Britney really happy?

wow if that's the case, i should have had about 2 trillion breakdowns by now.

Yes, dear Larry, give us some more of that deep crap.

If she was just "bored" and now she's not - so how does conservatorship fit into this? Or child abuse and loss of custody?

Where did he say she was bored? He basically said she had way too much free time on her hands. She's use to working and having a schedule. During her breakdown she had nothing to do and ran into the wrong people.

How about she's a moron that is 27 and acts 12? Why does NOBODY blame britney?

It always everybody elses fault but Britneys. GOD I HATE THIS BITCH. Yes britney, we all made you not wear panties, get married to a guy in vegas even though you were not in love, hang out with skanky Paris and Lindsey, Pop pills and shave your head. I hope this worthless skank never gets her kids back full time. Its sad to say but they are better off with Kevin than this bitch who only cares about herself and uses her fans to keep money in her pocket, cause she is too stupid to work at Burger King.

Why would she want to work at Burger King? Nobody wants to be like you. You can't have it your way.

This guy only makes money on her if she's working. What else can he say?



Posted by: Sunnyday

Larry you jerk, how will you explain those breakdowns which will come during the tour?
Asshole!

Mr rudolph,i'm aware you've been to law school and know ms spears well but who are you fooling.A human being does not have mental difficulties just because of boredom.Ms spears difficulties came from stress,being unhappy(i suspect).
The entertainment business needs more honesty and transparency.

MORE BS FROM BRIT'S PR DEPARTMENT BECAUSE SHE IS A LOW LIFE LOSER!!!!



Posted by: Britney is Pathetic

Notice that Britney was not at the American Music Awards nor was any of her people able to BUY HER A PITY AWARD?? The REAL singers/performers were at the awards last night. Britney needs to go back to school and get the hell out of the spotlight. People are sick to death of her.

This album will tank and there will be no tour. They keep talking about a tour to try to keep some interest in her, but it's not going to happen. Nobody cares about Twitney anymore, thank God. It's way past time for this skank to go away.

Well we all know Larry Rudolph is such a well educated mental health professional that he must be right, right?

Right there is part of Britney's problem--people around her that are even more stupid than she is.

What happened to the Bi-polar crap ??????????????????????????????????????? Just like most of knew, just a BULLSHIT excuse, like her whole life, nothing but a SORRY excuse...................

Ok, first of all he didn't say she had a breakdown b/c she was bored but he did have a point. All of Britney's problems started when she wasn't working so he's pointing out the correlation. I'm glad that For the Record is going to be raw & show Britney's true feelings but for him as a manager he's going to want to talk about her in nothing but the positive. What should he say? Oh yes, Britney hates life & is miserable so we're gonna stop fighting for her & working w/ her & we'll just leave her out to dry. I don't think he was trying to do fakery or sugercoat anything b/c we'll see the truth in For the Record. I think he is saying that Britney's healing & that's the most important thing. BTW- no one from Britney's camp ever said she was Bi-Polar. I think her mom said it was Post- Partum.

Oh please give me a break. this guy is a fake and phony as the whore herself.
She had no breakdown, she just wanted to get rid of her kids because she is a selfish spoiled skank. tell it how it is.

According to TMZ, she wants daddy to leave her alone so she can go out with that camel jockey again and hit the clubs. Britney is a 27 year moron. I say let her free so we all can watch her fall on her face again. I need a good laugh. BRITNEY IS A LIP SINGING SKANK.

These people want to make their damn minds up. First she is post-partum, then she is bipolar, and now she was just bored? It's all a crock of sh**.



Posted by: Anonymous

What happened to her being Bi-polar and being "drugged" by Sam Lutfi??

Oh wait, that's right, it was a crock of shit. Like I said it was months ago.



Posted by: PB

Except that she had two kids and it's not like she didn't have stuff to do. When will he acknowledge that she suffers from some sort of mental disease (remember she is taking medication)? I feel for her because everyone around her is more concerned with her career than her mental health. I have a feeling that she is heading for another breakdown...



Posted by: Anonymous

How do you get BORED with 2 kids? More like she wanted to do DRUGS and whore around after she dumped (if you want to call it that) Kfed.

Exactly - Larry makes $$$ from Britney if she is working.
Their story regarding her behavior has changed so many times. Can't they stick to one freakin story??
I think we all know what the problem is - Britney is a self-absorbed dumbass skank who likes drugs and loser dick more than raising her own children.

Maybe the "jail" she's referring to isn't that of her parents, but of the papparazzi constantly buzzing about in her life? She can't do anything without an army of people following her, snapping her picture, harassing her. Yeah, that sounds like jail to me.

I'm made from a board Larry, does that give me an excuse to do drugs and have a break down?

LOL You haters are so lost in your delusions. This woman is fixing to show everybody in the business how it's done. Genius is right, that is Britney. Often when one has an extremely high IQ it is difficult to understand where others are coming from and it can be quite frustrating. I realize that many of you have not educated yourselves about what it means to have an extremely high IQ and that it being a genius does not necessarily mean you are well versed in all things. Britney knows how to bring it on to the show. She has had her up and downs in her life but a lot of it has to do with as she grew up her mind continued to race faster and faster and she became accustomed to self medicating and was sleep deprived. After years of living that way a person will crash. Britney did but thank God she had some people that love her there to catch her when she fell. She may well crash again but I do not think it will be on this tour. I think she will pull it off and the world will embrace her and then she will go rest. I pray that she gets some therapy and educates herself about what her brain is doing. It is not uncommon but for us that have manic episodes followed by depression we do understand it and we know it is not a bad thing but it is something one must learn to cope with and monitor. Living a happy, healthy life is possible once you understand what your body is telling you. That is when things will balance for Britney. It will God willing and in God's time. I hope she finds peace and finds somewhere to live away from all the insanity and chaos of LA. Yes for you that do not understand it was a nervous breakdown. It is common and it can happen to you. So hush, you could be the next one. Mental hospitals, psychiatrists and psychologists exist for a reason.

This documentary was done ., in my opinion a little bit too early, because Brit is still in a transistional stage. Meaning, as each day passes she will become stronger and better and will forget the bad phase that happened to her.
She is doing wonderful. But hope she gets a little more rest during her tour, and does not always stay on the high. That is not normal, and she needs the down for rest, relaxation and balance.

She was never diagnosed with bipolar disorder and that rumor has definitely died out.

She got involved with bad people, period.
