Singer Britney Spears has been freed from her conservatorship following a ruling from Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny on the 12th, November. Many aspects of Britney Spears' finances and personal life have been controlled by her father Jamie and others for the past 13 years under a form of legal guardianship called a conservatorship.
当地时间11月12日，洛杉矶高等法院法官布伦达·佩妮做出判决，歌手布兰妮·斯皮尔斯正式结束被监管的生活。在过去的13年里，布兰妮的财务和个人生活的许多方面都受到她父亲杰米和其他人的控制，通过所谓的监护权的形式。
Fans had gathered outside the LA court to support Britney.
粉丝们聚集在洛杉矶法院外支持布兰妮。
In 2007, Britney Spears was struggling herself. Humiliation by the press, stalking by the paparazzi, speculation around her mental health and substance abuse and a custody battle over her two young sons helped lead Britney Spears to a breaking point.
2007年，布兰妮在困境中挣扎。媒体的羞辱、狗仔队的跟踪、关于她心理健康和药物滥用的猜测，以及关于她两个年幼儿子的监护权之争，都致使布兰妮走到了崩溃的边缘。
After stints in hospital and rehab in 2008, Britney’s father Jamie petitioned a Los Angeles court to place his daughter under a temporary conservatorship. He was charged with making decisions about her career, as well as her estate and financial affairs.
2008年，在布兰妮住院和进行心理康复治疗后，她的父亲杰米向洛杉矶法院申请将其女儿置于自己的临时监护之下。他负责决定她的职业生涯，以及她的财产与财务事务。

However, the conservatorship has control over her reproductive health. She was forced to perform against her will and was made to take medication she did not want. She was exploited for money.
然而，监护权控制了她的生育自由。她被迫违背自己的意愿去表演、被迫服用她不想要的药物。她被剥削、被利用成为了赚钱的机器。
The singer has been faced with a decade-long nightmare orchestrated by her father and others. "This conservatorship is doing me way more harm than good," she said, "I deserve to have a life."
这位歌手经历了由她的父亲和其他人所策划的长达十多年的噩梦。“这种保护对我弊大于利，”她说道，“我应该有自己的生活。”
