Britney Spears‘ daddy is ready to release his daughter into the wild again — we’ve learned the conservatorship may be coming to an end.
Sources tell us Jamie Spears will ask the court to review the terms of the conservatorship after her concert tour ends in November. Jamie can’t ask the judge to end it — just to review it. The judge then decides if Britney should regain control of her life.
We’re told Jamie thinks Britney is ready to roll on her own. He has made her life his full time job since February, 2008.
Fact is … if it weren’t for the tour, given Britney’s progress, the judge might already have made the decision to undo the conservatorship. The various vendors were promised under their contracts that the conservatorship would stay in tact throughout the tour.
A little editorial comment … it may be the most remarkable turnaround we’ve ever seen. A year and a half ago, people were worried for Britney’s life.

POLISH PROMOTER CANCELS WARSAW PERFORMANCE OF THE CIRCUS STARRING BRITNEY SPEARS
Los Angeles, CA – The Circus Starring Britney Spears will not be touring Warsaw, Poland during the 63-city world tour. To Britney’s great dismay, the performance scheduled to take place in Warsaw, Poland on Friday, July 24th has been canceled by the Polish promoter due to a contractual dispute that was unable to be resolved. Britney regrets that she will not be visiting Poland’s capital during her world tour. She apologizes to all her loyal fans for the cancellation and hopes to visit the culturally exciting city of Warsaw in the near future.
“The Circus Starring Britney Spears” kicked-off in New Orleans, LA on March 3, “The pop star…pulled out all the stops before a sell-out crowd of 16,400 to launch her much anticipated world tour,” stated Reuters. To date, the Circus is the highest grossing tour of 2009 in North America.
