Britney Spears Conservator Says Jamie Spears Used Millions Of Stars Money On Own Defense – HuffPost

The conservator with control over Britney Spears’ personal life has hit back at criticisms made by the pop star’s father and in turn accused him of using millions of his daughter’s money to retain control of her finances. Earlier this week, Spears’ father, Jamie Spears, blamed attorney Jodi Montgomery for the suffering and abuse his daughter testified to experiencing under her 13-year conservatorship, a legal arrangement that puts her finances and most aspects of her personal life under the control of a handful of other people, including her father. In court documents filed Wednesday, he said Montgomery had been the conservator handling Britney’s “day-to-day personal care and medical treatment” and that he was concerned that Montgomery “does not reflect Ms. Spears’ wishes.” But on...

Geralts Voice In The Witcher Show Was A Happy Accident – Kotaku

Photo: Netflix During an interview that was part of WitcherCon, Henry Cavill explained that Geralt’s voice heard in the first season of the Netflix show wasn’t originally the plan. Instead, it happened by “accident” while filming a scene early on in production. The star of The Witcher on Netflix explained that he never intended to use a raspy voice in the series while playing Geralt. In fact, during auditions for the show, he was told to use his normal speaking voice. And so, once he got the part and filming started on the first season, that’s what Cavill did. But after taking a Christmas break, the crew and Cavill returned to working on the show, and during a scene, the actor accidentally added a raspy quality to his voice. He didn’t notice until the scene was over what he had done...

L.A. County has more than 1,000 coronavirus cases in a day – Los Angeles Times

Los Angeles County reported more than 1,000 new coronavirus cases in a single day on Friday — the biggest such report in months. The last time L.A. County reported more than 1,000 new cases in a single day was due to a backlog of cases in late May. In early March, the county was routinely posting new coronavirus cases of more than 1,000 a day. With 1,060 new cases reported Friday, according to a preliminary Times tally, L.A. County was averaging 598 new cases a day over the past week, a significant increase from a month ago, when the county was reporting fewer than 200 new cases a day. The latest case rate, however, is far less than the peak of more than 15,000 new coronavirus cases a day at the height of the pandemic. Officials are attributing the rise in coronavirus cases to the v...
