Britney Spears has recently “fallen off the deep end” as many would say. From losing custody of her children to Kevin Federline of all people and her everyday drama captured and widely exposed by the press, Spears has been through a rough couple of years. While she has released a couple of popular songs, “Gimme More” and “Piece of Me,” and appeared on the March 24 episode of How I Met Your Mother, the artist clearly is in need of some help in order to get her life back on track. Enter Mel Gibson. As one of Hollywood’s most well-known and successful actors, Gibson can empathize with Spears in the difficult position of being constantly hounded by paparazzi as well as other hardships that come with celebrity.
According to People magazine, Spears and Gibson have “been getting together since the end of February [because] Mel and [his wife], Robyn, saw a woman in crisis and wanted to help.” Apparently Gibson is advising Spears “how to navigate celebrity and how to keep one’s family intact and out of the limelight.”
It sounds like Spears has found a guardian of sorts. Hopefully Gibson’s advice will provide Spears with the guidance and wisdom she needs to redirect her life onto a path of improvement and reconciliation. I guess not all Hollywood celebrities are completely selfish. Gibson has displayed a kind act of outreach to this troubled singer and actress. If we are lucky, Spears will take her new guardian’s instructions to heart, and the daily “Britney drama” that is impossible to escape will be replaced by more positive coverage of the star improving her family, career, and life in general.
