Sexy Mom Live, Mature Celebrity Gossip

Britney Spears' cousin and former assistant, Alli Sims, insists the press made a mountain out of a molehill over the pop star's alleged breakdown in 2008.

The media had a field day when Britney Spears locked herself in the bathroom of her Hollywood Hills home with her youngest son Jaden. Britney Spears subsequently suffered a breakdown before she was committed to a UCLA Medical Center psychiatric ward.

Alli Sims, who was dismissed when the singer's father Jamie took control of her affairs, is adamant that neither her cousin nor her son were in any danger then.

Sims revealed that Britney Spears did not want to hand over the boys to their father Kevin Federline's security guards. The sexy mom was not ready to end a visitation with her sons but was otherwise, fine.

And, despite the fact Sims is no longer close to Britney, she has no criticisms about the pop star or her mothering skills. When she testified at Spears' "brutal" child custody trial, she insists: "There was nothing bad to say."

Now, at least we gained an insight into the life of Britney Spears during her traumatic days in the beginning of 2008. The sexy mom didn't go bonkers as what the press suggested. She just needed understanding and support when her life went off track.
