Britney Spears’ former friend and attempted handler Sam Lutfi has been ordered to stay away from Spears for three years.

The restraining order was granted to Spears’ conservatorship (aka: her dad, Jamie who has stepped up in a big way) after the court deemed Lufti to be interfering with Britney’s ongoing recovery.

Lufti is banned from coming within 100 feet of Spears, her children, her ex-husband Kevin Federline, her parents or any other family members. He is also forbidden to attempt to contact her or her family via phone, mail or email.

What about Twitter?

Game, match, point: Papa Spears!

Britney Spears’ ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib has been forbidden from communicating with the singer or getting within 100 yards of her for the next three years.

The orders, issued on Wednesday, also prevent Ghalib from contacting Spears directly or indirectly through phone, mail or e-mail, forbid him to claim that he represents her interests and extends to protect Britney’s parents, siblings and her children.

Super shady Sam Lutfi is suing Britney Spears and her parents, Jamie and Lynne Spears, for defamation and breach of contract. He says they launched a campaign of lies to drive him out of Britney’s life.

He claims he’s been “subjected to unfathomable amounts of ridicule and scorn,” and has received “numerous death threats from overzealous fans…[and can] no longer find work as a counselor of at-risk teens.”

Britney Spears’ father, Jamie, has secured a restraining order to protect his daughter and family from her former “manager” Sam Lutfi and paparazzi ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
