So why exactly did Britney Spears cut her mother out of her will and sever ties with her?  Early reports stated that she was upset with her for tricking her into going to rehab when she (obviously) didn't need it.  I mean come on... who hasn't ... well...  nevermind.

Apparently this breaking point in their relationship came from a physical fight described as a "slap fest" that occurred between the ever entertaining former entertainer and her mother Lynne Spears in June.  According to Star Magazine, the scrap "left Lynne shaken and Britney more determined than ever to cut her mother out of her life for good."

This apparently started when Lynne arrived at Britney's house uninvited.  An insider told the magazine "Lynne barged into the house and insisted on taking the kids out to spend some private time with them.  She didn’t ask or suggest, she demanded!  Then she began denigrating Britney’s mothering skills and losing her temper at the same time!"

This lead Britney to serve legal papers against her mother, but rumor has it that Lynne Spears is mulling a countersuit. When asked about the incident, Lynne said that she doesn’t completely blame Britney — she believes her daughter is suffering from depression.

What a shocking revelation that wouldn't be!
