It Really Pays To Be Her Pop
Posted by Media Outrage on December 23, 2008
Our entire economy is built around the successful marketing of celebrities. Britney Spears’ father Jamie is making a pretty penny by handling his daughter’s affairs for her. Peep game below:
Via AP:
A court has put a higher value on being Britney Spears‘ father this year: about $75 an hour.
For helping his daughter through her turbulent period, Jamie Spears on Monday was awarded an additional $51,000 payout, reflecting an increase in his monthly payments since he took over his 27-year-old daughter’s affairs in February.
Jamie Spears had been receiving $10,000 a month for his work, but Los Angeles Superior Court Commissioner Reva Goetz increased that amount to approximately $16,000 per month and agreed to give him backpay.
He was also granted an additional $1,200 monthly payment so he can maintain and office, which Goetz said was justified by his work getting his daughter’s personal life — and music career — back on track.
Mediaoutrage- Now let us explain our earlier statement about the economy being built around the successful marketing of celebrities. Michael Jordan made more than $4 billion for the economy during his years as a professional basketball player. Will Smith has made over $4 billion for the economy with his many successful movies. Magazines, Radio, TV, Websites, Clothing and Car companies all rake in millions off of the successful marketing of celebs. Celebs tell us what kind of clothes to buy. Anything they have, we in turn want. It’s a real interesting dynamic once you analyze it. So that is why it is absolutely necessary for our society to build up celebrities before our eyes. It’s sort of the same reason every nation has a designated leader, because without one the society would fall into instant chaos.

I don’t see anything wrong with him getting that money. Especially if he has been taking care of her for her entire childhood.
