The renowned director applauded Brit during a new chat with Elle, fondly recalling the moment a bald Britney attacked a paparazzo’s car with an umbrella in 2007. She raved … “She’s become this symbol of women’s rights. That would never happen to a man.”
Sofia did not specify what “that” means, but we all know the Princess of Pop went through it in 2007 … with a series of public outbursts leading up to her former husband, Kevin Federline, winning custody of their two sons. And she was notoriously placed under a court-ordered conservatorship in February 2008, which lasted for 13 years. As for Britney now …
And as you know, Britney was back in the headlines — not for her signature dancing videos she posted on Instagram — but for being arrested for a DUI earlier this month. She’s been hanging low since … but we were told at the time that those around her want a mental health and detox treatment plan.
