Britney Spears appears to have gotten her life back together since she left rehab, but she may be having trouble letting part of her old one go, as reports surfaced this week that the singer has had to slash a million dollars of the asking price of her Malibu mansion. TMZ reports that the 9,200 square foot Serra Retreat mansion, one that comes with seven bedrooms and a recording studio, was going for $13.5 million originally but that the price has been slashed to just under $12 million. The website reports that the listing appears on Coldwell Banker's website but without a mention of Spears and that there have been no offers on the mansion, even with the reduced pricetag.In other BritBrit news of the day, Star Magazine reports that the singer, who had recently been playing nice with estranged husband Kevin Federline, lashed out and told him that he was "the biggest mistake she ever made." Of course, in typical double-edged Britney Spears fashion, the comment came as a part of a last-minute open door to save their marriage. Britney Spears and Kevin Federline finalized their divorce last week and Star reports that a source tells them, "Britney said, 'Do you really want to do this?' and Kevin said yes. Britney replied, 'You're the biggest mistake I've ever made, but thank you for my babies.'"
Star Magazine implies in the same story that Kevin Federline led Britney Spears to believe that they would get back together if she went to and completed rehab, which may be why we heard so many rumors to that end while Britney was at Promises. Perhaps it was just something to help Britney Spears get through what she needed to get her act together. Monsters and Critics reports that Kevin Federline will get $13 million in the divorce settlement with Britney Spears. According to a prenup, K-Fed was only supposed to get $500,000 for the marriage, but Britney upped that number to a million in the settlement last week. Federline will also get half of the proceeds from the mansion, should it ever sell, and $25,000 a month in child support for Sean Preston and Jayden James until they're eighteen. Federline will also get custody of the kids four days a week.
One more piece of Britney Spears news - Life and Style Weekly magazine reports that Britney Spears and singer Howie Day fell for each other at Promises in Malibu. A source tells the magazine, "Britney has fallen hard for him. Britney just lights up and seems back to her old self when she talks to Howie or tells people about him. She thinks he's very talented - and says he's the best kisser ever!"
Someone claims to have already gotten momma Spears' opinion on the whole thing with a source telling Life and Style that Lynne Spears isn't happy about her daughter's new fling - "Lynne wants Britney to be with someone outside the music industry. Howie is always on the road and exposed to influences that are discouraged in rehab."
