Description
With the publicity of Britney Spears' now-terminated conservatorship and the #FreeBritney movement, how guardianship arrangements work across the U.S. is an increasingly hot topic, prompting nationwide discussions about the value and potential problems within guardianship proceedings.
What may be surprising is that Britney Spears is not the first celebrity to be put into a conservatorship or guardianship. In this episode, we'll overview guardianship laws across the country, then discuss seven celebrities who've been in these situations before or still are today: Nichelle Nichols, Casey Kasem, Mikey Rooney, Brian Wilson, Bam Margera, Joni Mitchell, and Amanda Bynes.
