Although he won't confirm reports that he's back working with Britney Spears, her former manager Larry Rudolph reckons the troubled star is in "great shape."
"I've seen her a few times over the past week or two. I've spent some time with her just socially. I've gone up to the house. I've sat with her. She's in great shape," he told Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS FM radio show.
"I couldn't be happier to see the condition she's in. But this is not a time to talk about business with her.
"What she needs now is the public to be on her side and root for her, because she deserves it and that means a lot to her," he added.
Larry went on to praise Brit's recent guest appearance on sitcom How I Met Your Mother and commented on her parents newfound presence in the singer's life, saying; "She needs people around her who are there for the right reasons."
He was also optimistic about her future.
"I can't think of a situation where somebody's been set up for a bigger comeback than that girl," he said.

So, it’s about an old man flying away on an adventure by attaching a huge bunch of helium balloons to his house. Even for the talented craftspeople at Pixar, who successfully brought us a near-silent film about robots last year, this seems far-fetched. We needn’t have worried though. Up is the best Pixar film since Toy Story.

With Wimbledon 2009 in full swing, err… serve, the top tennis players from around the world are focused entirely on their game. As they run up and down the court screaming with exertion, the rest of us non-pros can't help but judge them on something other than their passing shots; that's right, how good looking they are.
