OK! Magazine reports Britney Spears is allegedly facing serious financial trouble. If you’ve seen any of her Instagram offerings, you might think there’s something else going on as well. She’s been blowing through cash and now has a mountain of debts and no money coming in. It’s not all Britney’s fault given all the people who’ve leeched off her and continue to do so. Adding to that, her soon to be ex-husband is getting a “low six figure” settlement. And is living in a $10k a month apartment paid for by Spears.
