Britney Spears has said that her father saved her life by taking over all her legal and business affairs earlier this year. As you'll remember, the courts gave Spears senior complete control of his daughter's affairs after one of her particularly loopy turns.
She told The Daily Star: "My father saved my life. I probably wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him. I've not always been a good daughter; but he basically gave up his job and his life to look after me at a time when I wasn't even sure I wanted to go on living. I owe him my life".
