and \u201cAbsolute Britney\u201d website developer, Anthony Elia.\u00a0 In a lawsuit filed recently, Jamie Spears, who has served as Britney Spears\u2019 conservator since 2008, alleges Elia inflicted malicious intent to defame him.\u00a0In Elia\u2019s blog, he concocts conspiracy theories about Jamie\u2019s apparent power over Britney.\u00a0 Two theories include Jamie\u2019s misrepresentation of Britney on her social media accounts to make her appear crazy, and not allowing Britney to regain control over her own life.\u00a0 The blog has evolved into a \u201cFree Britney\u201d campaign, attracting many followers.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles, references a June 14 post connected to \u201cAbsolute Britney\u201d that claims Britney\u2019s Instagram account is not managed by the popular singer, but rather, by her conservator father.\u00a0The statement <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/entertainment\/britney-spears-father-jamie-spears-free-britney-absolute-britney-defamation-lawsuit\">reads<\/a>, \u201cBritney\u2019s team is deleting positive comments on her Instagram post and leaving negative ones to keep up the illusion that she needs help!&#8230;This has to be a human rights violation!!!!\u201d\u00a0 Due to the false and harmful claims made in the post, Jamie Spears is now looking for a judge to permanently stop Elia from writing about his conservatorship over Britney.<\/p>\n<p>Elia, who has not commented on the recent lawsuit, appears to be a big supporter of Britney and wants her to be freed from whatever control her father apparently has over her.\u00a0 The conservatorship began in 2008, following Britney\u2019s infamous head shaving incident in a salon.\u00a0 The decision to shave her head stems, in part, from the grief she experienced after the death of her aunt.\u00a0 Since then, her father, Jamie Spears, has maintained guidance over her affairs.\u00a0 According to one of her allegedly tampered-with Instagram posts, Britney is still not well and has checked herself into a mental health facility for self-improvement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jamie Spears is striking back at blogger and \u201cAbsolute Britney\u201d website developer, Anthony Elia.\u00a0 In a lawsuit
