Rising isn't easy for Britney

We don't know what's more surprising: that Britney's lawyers thought that telling the judge he couldn't understand her difficulty in having early-morning drugs tests because he's not a popstar, or that they got away with it:

Federline's lawyers asked for Thursday's hearing to complain that Spears is not complying with the drug testing order and is not responding to calls from the testing facility within the time frame ordered by [Los Angeles Superior Court Commissioner Scott M.] Gordon.

Gordon said he does not believe Spears should be treated different from other people who get calls from labs in the morning.

"I have to get here at 7:30 a.m. to read papers," Gordon said in reference to documents filed in connection with today's hearing.

Kiley said Gordon's situation is different.

"But you're not a pop star with a number one album," Kiley said.

Rather than saying "no, and nor am I a mother supposedly desperate to do everything she can to remain in contact with her kids", the judge allowed for a slightly more flexible system. He didn't grant the Spears's side demand for six hour warning of drugs tests - presumably to give her time to find her underwear before turning up for the blood sample.

'You're not a pop star with a number 1 album'... neither's she, surely?

Or did I just imagine that whole Walmart / Eagles business?

It's so hard to be 'Britney Spears'. I like her when she first started her singing career. so innocent.
