Apprentice star offers to represent Britney Spears

A former star of The Apprentice has offered Britney Spears free legal representation after the pop tart's legal firm severed ties with her.

Divorce lawyer Stacy Schneider, who appeared on season five of the reality show, has offered to move into Spears' home to help her fight for custody of her two sons Sean Preston, two, and Jayden James, two.

"I hope my offer to represent her at no charge is communicated to her," she says.

She also offered some advice to the troubled star.

"Number one, I would tell Britney to hibernate. She'll no longer be airing her personal business in public. She needs to stay inside and stop the Starbucks runs so that no more bad-behaviour stories leak out.

"She has to stop mouthing off to the judge, she has to learn to control her emotions. She has to practice her testimony.

"She only has one shot to win back her kids and she's not able to lip-synch her way through her testimony. What Britney's doing now is showing everyone that she's irresponsible or just doesn't care."
