Britney Spears: 'My Father Saved my Life'

Britney Spears credits her father, Jamie, for helping her get her life back on track.

Jamie Spears -- who is officially the conservator of the Toxic singer's financial affairs and estate -- has helped his daughter overcome her recent troubles, and is helping Britney return to her former glory.

And Britney is thankful for her father's help.

She tells Britain's Daily Star newspaper, "My father saved my life. I probably wouldn't be here if it wasn't for him. I've not always been a good daughter, but he basically gave up his job and his life to look after me at a time when I wasn't even sure I wanted to go on living. I owe him my life."

Jamie has bought in a a personal trainer, a chef, a lifestyle coach, self-help books and an alcohol counselor to help get his daughter back on the straight and narrow after a turbulent 12 months.

Meanwhile, as Showbiz Spy reported yesterday, Britney will have to wait until the end of the week to learn if she will have to stand trial for a misdemeanor driving license offense.

The pop star's attorney, Michael Flanagan, urged Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James A. Steele to dismiss the case on Tuesday morning, prompting the judge to review the details of the case.

Spears was found to be in possession of an invalid out-of-state license when she was questioned by police over an accident she caused last year (07).

Flanagan told the court he felt his client was being singled out because of her celebrity status.
