Singer is ready to take relationship with her agent one step further

The Britney Spears of today is miles away from the Britney Spears that had to be taken to hospital and involuntarily committed under the 5150 act for mental evaluation at the beginning of 2008. Partly responsible for the change is her agent, Jason Trawick, who helped her get her life back in order and career on track, and whom she’s been dating for many months. Now, the two are preparing for a wedding.

Sources are telling US tabloids (story via HollywoodRag) that Britney is determined to tie the knot with Jason and, more importantly, to make this marriage – her third to date – really work. The singer believes that she is now more emotionally mature and clearly more able to make a judgment call about long-term commitment than she ever was in the past, and that includes saying her “I Do” to then-backup dancer with musical aspirations, Kevin Federline.

“Britney told [dad] Jamie and [mom] Lynne she wants to marry Jason. They weren’t shocked, but they’re worried Britney is confusing close friendship with romance,” sources say for the US media. However, the singer is reportedly so smitten and convinced that she can’t possibly make a mistake now that she’s even willing to risk the wrath of her parents to have her way. “She says Jason makes her feel safe and loved,” the same unnamed but reportedly reliable source further explains.

Still, as fans must remember, Britney and Jason never even officially confirmed being an item in the first place. Speculation about a secret man in her life has been around for many months, but it wasn’t until June that some sort of confirmation emerged with photos of the two on vacation together. Also about the same time, the paparazzi that are always stalking Britney vouched for the media that she and Jason were definitely an item.

“In my eyes, Britney and Jason are definitely together. I’ve never seen any other celebrity spend as much time with their agent as Brit does – vacation in Costa Rica, dinner, the Bahamas, running out to get Starbucks on a Saturday afternoon – I mean, it’s not just business as usual. They look so comfortable together and Britney looks happy to have someone with her other than just her bodyguard. She’s alone so much or with her dancers or with her assistant Brett, that for her to finally be with a guy seems comforting for her,” a pap working for X17 Online, one of the two largest paparazzi agencies in Hollywood, said back then.
