Another documentary about Britney Spears’ controversial guardianship aired with more shocking information about the singer’s life. According to ” Controlling Britney Spears, ” a documentary made by The New York Times , the singer’s father, Jamie Spears , hired a security company to secretly monitor her .
The disclosure about such action, which is considered illegal and an invasion of privacy, was made by Alex Vlasov for the documentary, which serves as a kind of continuation of the controversial ” Framing Britney Spears .” For nine years, Alex was an employee of the Black Box company , hired by Britney’s father to protect her and secretly record her conversations, phone calls, and even text messages.
“It really reminded me of someone who was in a prison and the security guards were put in the position of being jailers” Alex Vlasov told the documentary “Controlling Britney Spears.”
The statements of Alex were all corroborated by documents, emails, text messages and audio recordings that show interactions even Britney with her children and her boyfriend. According to Alex, the recordings were made in secret even from the singer’s bedroom.
It is worth noting that voice recordings and text message monitoring without the consent of both parties is a violation of US law .
“I heard Britney’s testimony and I think that was the final indicator that she wanted to present what I know“

In other related news, working hard for Britney Spears’ freedom since she was hired, attorney Mathew Rosengart told The New York Times:
“Any interception or monitoring of Britney’s communications, especially attorney-client conversations, which are an important part of the court system, would represent a disgraceful violation of her privacy and a perfect example of the deprivation of her civil liberties”
“Putting a mistake in Britney’s bedroom would be particularly unforgivable and embarrassing and largely corroborates her strong and moving testimony“
