wow, she looks clean

WOW! Her hair looks GREAT! And a pretty smokey eye! Who the hell is this person??

i see she used a hair and make-up arist

yeii she took a shower!

NO sh*t! She actually looks hot,if my eyes are not deceiving me.

this is amusing

She does look good

wow...it's about time she has to show up to court on time. I hate when celebrity's get special treatment. PS. She looks good in this picture. I can't remember the last time I saw a picture of her looking "normal".

Love the blonde! Welcome back Brit Brit!

It's going to take more than showing up to one court appearance on time to impress the judge after all of her antics. Since she's still under conservatorship herself, (i.e. unable to care for herself,) I doubt there will be much movement in the visitation.

If a person is deemed by the court unable to take care of their own affairs, the courts don't hand them small children to care for.

I still think she needs more time to prove she is fit to have any kind of custody with the kids.

im sorry but she does not look good, beautiful, pretty, clean yes i will give her that, im being dead serious i see no beauty about her anymore her hair looks straight and damaged with different colors

Um her hair looks quite trashy here. I mean compared to the rats nest she usually opts for maybe...But sorry last time I checked yellow blonde with brown stripes was considered tacky. Props though to Brit for being on time for once!

although it is wonderful that she finally made it to a court date on time and apparently showered and dressed appropriately, she needs to do more to earn the right of a mother. it is EXPECTED that she be there and that she dress and behave properly. it takes more than a few short months and a new hair do to be a good parent. she needs more time to make sure that she won't go back to her old ways.

and it seems like she showered and combed her hair!

agreed couturexaddict and sweetnshy5282

hopefully she put a bra on.....I agree about the trashy hair too...

She looks good! Hopefully this is a step in the right direction.

expected and required are two different things

What should her hair look like for you all to think she actually does look nice? I mean, lets look back at the last 2 years, compared to then, she looks amazing.

Go Britney!!!!!!!!! Im so happy for her that shes moving in the right direction!!! Keep it up!!

Kevin is getting rattled having to care for the boys all the time, I read where he's actually going to tell the court that Britney can have much more time with them just so he can have some private time of his own.

I think her hair looks wicked... least she showed up looking decent.. YAY go BRIT so happy for you

she looks amazing compared to last year.love her!!!

isn't she coming straight from HIMYM set? looks like that...

Her hair was done like that for her HIMYM appearance. They did her hair similarly last time. Give it like two days and it'll be changed.

She looks good though.

It'll be interesting to see what happens. She won't win full custody back but I'm thinking the judge will reward her a bit for the progress she's made.

Who cares if she looks beautiful or not? She's been through some real mental strain and that can take a toll on everything.

Bottom line is she's clean and appears to be back on the right track. I've never been a fan, but since finding out she has bipolar illness, I'm rooting for her all the way and hope she continues to recover and stay on the right path.

it really is nice to see that she's changing her habits, even if it has to do with the fact that sam isn't running her life and her parents are. i think that it says something that her parents are supporting her, and that maybe it means that she'll be a better parent in return.

i'm sure that kevin would be really happy to have more 'free time' although i'm sure that he's got 'help' or a nanny to watch the kids since he manages to go to vegas and all those other places.

we'll just have to wait and see what the updates are there.

brian with money and a staff that can make her look nice she still manages to look like sh*t, her makeup looks trashy her hair does as well im sure her outfit does too, i hope all goes well for her, no one knows she has bipolar there are alot of people that want to believe that something medically is wrong with their idol, i think she was using alot of drugs, but that is all speculation no one knows the truth all we can go by is what we see and thats what i see, poor little men they need a mommy i hope she gets her sh*t together atleast for the sake of those adorable boys

how do we know that kevin would love to have more free time has he expressed that to people has he done things that would make people believe that, people can argue well he is out clubbing, sorry to say thats his job that he is paid for like it or not, he keeps his kids safe and away from the paps, and yes people can say no one cares about "federjerk" but the paps would love to get something on him that is bad, and they have not

OMG! She made it on time! All it took was Mama and Papa Spears treating her like a 4-year-old! Wow Britney, that's great, we're SO proud of you

*weak golf clap*

Hmm... I wouldn't call her my idol. And I don't know for sure that she has bipolar disorder, but the way she acts certainly suggests that. A lot of the reason I hope Britney makes a PERSONAL comeback (career aside) is that I see a lot of similarities between myself and her. I was diagnosed with biopolar disorder and after leaving my psycho redneck husband (sound familiar anyone?) I'm finally getting my life back together. Keep it up Britney... you're on your way.

She looks pretty at least.

good for her

monday im glad you got away, i personally have met people with bipolar severe cases and none of sh*tsh*ts characteristics claims bipolar, spoiled and on drugs yes, all of a sudden her father is in the picture and she doesnt have bipolar or none of the characteristics, just my opinion and nothing else

Eh. Maybe she's properly medicated this time? Having Psycho Sam give her whatever medication he deemed appropriate is different than having people who genuinely care about you find a doctor that has your best interests in mind.

her hair/weave looks great. not my ideal colors but at least it looks hydrated and fresh.

YAY she made it to court, AND her hair is down!!

I think she looks great! Now, I have never been on "team "Britney" but it almost seems like everyone wants the girl to fail...it is very clear the girl is sick with a mental disorder (not to mention the substance abuse that may/may not be still going on). I think she looks great compared to what we've seen of her in the last few years. She showed up on time, is re connecting with her family, back at the gym. She is doing GOOD! Its all in small steps and I think we should be praising her. Maybe someday soon the old (or new and IMPROVED) will make her debut.

She looks fantastic!
Hopefully her internal mental state is doing as well as her outside!

so what? she probably just took a shower! what we do EVERYDAY!

i dont want her to fail but i am not going to praise her for doing things people do on a daily basis

Aah, you go to a lot of media frenzies and custody battles on a daily basis? People follow your ever move and pick apart your flaws? I didn't know.

She looks so nervous in the pictures. Even the most bitter hater should give her some props for going and waiting nearly an hour before the thing even started and staying for court. In fact, I think she's still there. Not crazy about the Kim Vo overdone colors in her hair though, but otherwise looks great.

Didn't the claims of her being bipolar come from Sam, the same guy who has an active restraining order to stay away from her?

Drugs is the more likely culprit. And the desperate need for attention.

well of course she showed up on time, daddy made her. she DOES NOT have bipolar disorder, please, more excuses people make for her just being stupid and making stupid choices.
