Cutaway to reporters and camera operators\u003cbr/\u003eBritney Spears' continuing downward spiral took a devastating turn Monday (01OCT07) when she was ordered to relinquish custody of her children by a judge who had cited her drug-and-alcohol-fuelled lifestyle.\u003cbr/\u003eSuperior Court Judge Scott M. Gordon ruled that that ex-husband Kevin Federline will take Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, beginning Wednesday \"until further order of the court.\"\u003cbr/\u003eThe order stemmed from an unspecified oral motion made by Federline's lawyers and was handled in a closed-door hearing. The judge's order did not state the reason for the change in custody and he ordered all transcripts of the proceedings sealed.\u003cbr/\u003ePhone messages left for representatives of Spears and Federline were not immediately returned Monday.\u003cbr/\u003eTony Potts, a correspondent for \"Access Hollywood\" and host of new \"Celebrity Expose,\" told the Associated Press, \u003cbr/\u003e\"There must have been some egregious thing that Britney did over the last seven days that, some sort of checkpoint that she failed, and the judge said, 'Hold on. Failed a checkpoint. This invokes what I said. You're going to lost custody of the kids for now. You're going to lose physical custody, and we'll go from there, and see if you can go back, and either explain what happened, and if you cannot explain what happened, you need to take actions that will amend what you did.'\"\u003cbr/\u003eLast month, Gordon said Spears engaged in \"habitual, frequent and continuous use of controlled substances and alcohol\" and ordered her to undergo random drug and alcohol testing twice a week as part of her ongoing custody dispute with Federline.\u003cbr/\u003eSpears also was previously ordered to meet weekly with a \"parenting coach\" who was to observe and report back to the court about her parenting skills. Both Spears and Federline must complete the court's \"Parenting Without Conflict\" class.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Losing your kids, and, also, in a very public way, is traumatic, for anybody,\" Potts noted. \"And for a mother, I can't even understand how it would feel 'cause there's a whole different bond than being a father. My hope is, and the people I've talked to, she's very fragile emotionally. I hope this doesn't send her over the edge. There's often a very dramatic thing that happens when a drug addict finally hits rock-bottom and I hope the fact that she's losing physical custody of the kids is dramatic enough that will make her say, 'I just need help.'\"\u003cbr/\u003eSpears, 25, and Federline, 29, were married in October 2004. She filed for divorce last November and it became official in July. The two have joint custody of their sons, but Federline is seeking a greater share of custody.\u003cbr/\u003eSince Spears became single, her troubles have been closely followed by the tabloids. First she was photographed at various Hollywood hot spots partying hard with Paris Hilton - appearing drunk and out-of-control. Some photos captured the pop star without underwear. Then Spears shaved her head as paparazzi captured the moment, beat a car with an umbrella and ended up spending a month in rehab.\u003cbr/\u003eAn MTV Video Music Awards performance last month meant to herald her comeback was universally panned, with Spears appearing spaced-out and lethargic - and, in some eyes, less than her former lithe self. The following week, Spears' management firm dropped her and her divorce lawyer resigned.\u003cbr/\u003eShe then was charged with misdemeanour counts of hit-and-run and driving without a valid license for allegedly crashing into a parked car in August.\u003cbr/\u003eThe driving offences likely compelled the judge to issue Monday's orders, said New York divorce lawyer Raoul Felder.\u003cbr/\u003eHours after news of Spears' custody issues, Gloria Allred, attorney for former Spears bodyguard Tony Baretto, met with the press.\u003cbr/\u003e\"I believe that removing custody from Miss Spears is the shock treatment that Britney Spears needs. Tony and I believe that she loves her children, and that the children also need their mother. We hope that this change of custody will give Miss Spears the strong incentive that she needs to get help, so that she can one day be the responsible parent that the children deserve to have.\"\u003cbr/\u003eBaretto went to court Monday to support a sealed declaration about questionable behaviour by the pop star in a child-custody dispute between the singer and ex-husband Kevin Federline - but never got to testify.\u003cbr/\u003eThe couple are due back in court October 3. \u003cbr/\u003eSpears' new album is set to be released November 13\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read more description' class='rp-full-description' type='button'\u003e\n\u003ci class='fai fa-solid fa-align-left'\u003e\u003c/i\u003e\n\u003cspan id='read_more'\u003eRead More\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/button\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='rp-report'\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv aria-labelledby='resource-details-heading' class='rp-info-section'\u003e\n\u003ch2 class='title' id='resource-details-heading'\u003eResource Details\u003c/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='rp-resource-details clearfix'\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='detail'\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCurator Rating\u003c/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\u003cspan class=\"star-rating\" aria-label=\"3.5 out of 5 stars\" role=\"img\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"fa-solid fa-star text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c/i\u003e\u003ci class=\"fa-solid fa-star text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c/i\u003e\u003ci class=\"fa-solid fa-star text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c/i\u003e\u003ci class=\"fa-solid fa-star-half-stroke text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c/i\u003e\u003ci class=\"fa-regular fa-star text-action\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c/i\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/dd\u003e\n\u003c/dl\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='detail'\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt class=\"educator-rating-title\"\u003eEducator Rating\u003c/dt\u003e\u003cdd\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"educator-rating-details\" data-path=\"/educator_ratings/rrp_data?resourceable_id=1093328\u0026amp;resourceable_type=Boclips%3A%3AVideoMetadata\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"not-yet-rated\"\u003eNot yet Rated\u003c/span\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003c/dd\u003e\n\u003c/dl\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='detail'\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eGrade\u003c/dt\u003e\u003cdd title=\"Grade\"\u003eHigher Ed\u003c/dd\u003e\n\u003c/dl\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='detail'\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eSubjects\u003c/dt\u003e\u003cdd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ca href=\"/search?grade_ids%5B%5D=259\u0026amp;search_tab_id=1\u0026amp;subject_ids%5B%5D=358379\"\u003eSocial Studies \u0026amp;
