Singer’s rep calls behavior ‘totally inexcusable’ as family prepares to intervene

According to PEOPLE, a rep for Spears spoke out in a statement regarding the pop star’s arrest and denounced her actions.

“This is an unfortunate and completely inexcusable incident,” the spokesperson said. The statement continues, sharing Spears’ need to change her “long overdue” lifestyle.

“Britney will take the right steps and comply with the law and I hope this can be the first step in the long-awaited change that needs to happen in Britney’s life,” the spokesperson added. “I hope she can get the help and support she needs during this difficult time.”

“Her boys will be spending time with her,” the statement said, referring to Spears’ two sons, Preston, 20, and Jayden, 19. “Her loved ones will develop a long-needed plan to prepare her for health success.”

Britney Spears reportedly hemorrhaged money

According to the Daily Mail, an inside source told the outlet that Spears’ “heavy spending” was a major factor in her decision to sell her music catalog, while another source said it was because her once-lucrative music career was over.

“Everyone needs to be realistic about Britney’s future, including herself, so selling her catalog was a wise decision because she’s not going to return to music,” the source said.

Spears’ previous Las Vegas residency ran from 2013 to 2017, but since ending she has struggled financially, according to an insider.

“Without her Vegas gigs, she’s really suffering,” the source told the Daily Mail. “Those shows made her a fortune, but that unfortunately ended years ago. The best thing for her is to go back to Vegas to perform again and have a steady paycheck, but I don’t think she wants to work that hard.”

The singer’s last studio album was released 10 years ago and she hasn’t toured since 2017.

“Britney has a lot of money, but since she’s no longer making music, touring, or having a residency, only certain lucrative ventures are coming, like her perfume line or her book,” the source added.
