Britney Spears wants to trade in her paparazzi-magnet of a house for something quieter for her kids. Court records show Spears is hunting for a house with a larger yard that's closer to parks for her two boys. She also wants a "less trafficked" area.
She currently lives in Beverly Hills, in a $7 million mansion. Her father and conservator, James Spears, requested the sale of the current home and a court
commissioner agreed.
And Spears could make a musical comeback. Even after she seemingly sleepwalked through her MTV Video Music Awards performance last year, MTV is considering having her back. MTV Networks Music Group President Van Toffler says, "Everyone deserves a second or third chance, right?"
Spears performed "Gimme More" at last year's VMAs and became one of the most-talked-about events of the night -- for all the wrong reasons. She appeared to lip-synch, missed cues and appeared in a less-than-flattering black bikini. When asked if he was joking, Toffler said, "Sorta." Toffler says he's not sure how to top Spears opening the show, but MTV is working on it.
