Why Fans Think Kim Kardashian Stole $600 Million From Britney Spears

 

Fans have believed for a few years that $600 million was stolen from Britney Spears. Now, they think the Kardashian family may be connected.

Fans have an interesting theory that Kim Kardashian and her family from The Kardashians are connected to the $600 million that was stolen from pop star Britney Spears while she was in a conservatorship. After being launched into worldwide fame at just 16 years old, Britney was on top of the world in the early 2000s. However, by 2007, the star had a very public meltdown which landed her in a conservatorship. Luckily her millions of adoring fans started to notice something was off about her legal guardianship. While it took over a decade for them to free her, the conservatorship was officially terminated in November 2021.

 

If the "Free Britney" movement revealed anything, it's that Britney's family does not have her best interest at heart and would do anything to scam the mother of two out of the money she spent her life working for. In 2018, Britney's younger sister, Jamie Lynn Spears, was named the trustee of Britney's SJB trust, and fans found this very suspicious. Their suspicions were correct as the star's sister started moving money around to the Stonebridge investment firm. Britney's former business manager Lou Taylor was once the Vice President at Stonebridge and spent years fighting to become a trustee on Britney's account. Fans believe, based on financial records, Jamie Lynn may have transferred $600 million of Britney's money to Taylor. However, fans believe this $600 million was soon moved to a company of the same name in Panama and is connected to the Panama Papers.

While fans are after Britney's family and business manager, they also think the Kar-Jenner family could be involved with the missing money. It may sound strange that the famous reality TV family is involved in Britney's fight for financial freedom, but the popular Britney fan account, @BritneyHiatus on Twitter, has jaw-dropping evidence. The connections between The Kardashians and Britney's stolen money go back to the pop star's business manager. Britney is not her only client, as Taylor also manages Kim's money, which fans found out through documents from her divorce from Kanye West. Kim faced a lot of backlash for working with the controversial manager but not as much as she may face once the public hears the latest theory.

 

In January, news broke that Kim had expanded her fortune not just by any number but by $600 million. The increase in her net worth was credited to her shapewear brand SKIMS, but Britney fans think this might be from money laundering. "If you're Lou Taylor and you need to hide $600 million, would Kim's estate be a logical place to try and hide it?" the fan account wondered. However, they're not putting all the blame on Kim as they also pointed out that her younger sister, Kylie Jenner, recently sold half of her makeup company Kylie Cosmetics, for a very familiar price. The fan account explained, "If you're following the conspiracy, that means the money could have went from Britney's trust to Stonebridge to Panama back into the U.S. through Kim's trust and over to Kylie Jenner." The account then called for the FBI to start an investigation.

 

 

The Britney-Kardashian theory is a wild one like most fan theories are. However, if there's one thing to know about Hollywood, it's that corruption and lies are not out of the norm. The Britney fan account presented some convincing evidence, and with the reality TV family's history, it wouldn't be surprising if they were involved with the pop star's missing fortune. Even if the theory is completely inaccurate, Kim working with such a controversial figure who caused so much damage to Britney is certainly not making her look innocent. However, if the theory gets back to Kim, The Kardashians star will surely have a PR statement clearing her name faster than fans can say, "Free Britney."

I did see that twitter thread and thought it was interesting. A tad far-fetched but you never know. I think we only know a drop in the ocean with what went on with Britney's conservatorship.

I saw it too. I know Britney is successful (esp her perfume line) but $600 mil seems like a HUGE amount. But if it isn't really $600mil then what does this mean:

 

Stonebridge assets under management went up and down by $600 mil:

Probably a slow day for that publication.

 

No one thinks « Kardashians stole from Britney ». Though Kardashians are connected to Lou Taylor and many suspicious money moves have been made.

Do people really think Britney had $600 million liquid to just be stolen like that?

Me too but 

 

 

[popstyle]

im pretty sure she got all her money back no way could they just swindle 600 mill from her and nothing happens. Im sure lou taylor and britneys family got away with millions but not that much.

[Totami Legend]

Her lawyer will definitely do something about it, her fans told me he is a god

Title is misleading, since I've seen No fan think KK stole anything from Britney

it's a whole other thing saying that Lou (who Kim works with), invested money gotten from Britney - into Kim.

 

But yea, it's pretty possible

they really got huge over the years and that's right after Britney was put into the con

You would be surprised

Deranged 

[Happylittlepunk]

I don’t think Kim actually stole money from Britney. However, I could see Lou Taylor actually using Britney money to invest in Kim’s businesses and other kardashian/Jenner companies.  Which is a different story entirely. I am not sure how Britney herself could handle that if she was seeking a way to revive her money. I am sure her lawyer would figure something out.

Did she ever have $600 million? I mean she was very, very successful, but not $600 million. This seems really far fetched and out there. It is certainly possible that a smaller amount could have been misappropriated in this fashion though.

My question is - where is all the money from the fragrances? Every little chain retailer in the GLOBE has kept a steady supply stock of dozens of her fragrances for over a decade. Clearly they're SELLING. Brit's cut must have made some MAJOR coin. Then again for all we know she has that coin? IDK. Guess there's so much we don't know we don't even know where to start with conspiracies.

[BraveNewSeth]

I think that, unfortunately, Britney isn’t going to get back most of the money they stole from her. Team Con either most likely stored it in off shore accounts or redistributed it through money laundering. Didn’t it just come out that Rosengart discovered Tristar made about $20 million during the span of Britney’s conservatorship? If she’s lucky she’ll get back that amount, but I fear the rest is lost.

I remember J.Lo once mentioning in a business relevant interview that her perfumes had sold over 2 $Billion, yet the deal was structured in a way that got her very little money out off of it. That’s why she left Coty once that contract was up and she now has a more fairly structured deal. Maybe Britney is stuck in a similar thing.

Why not instead of stealing Twitter threads, journalists make their own ******* research? Ugh

 

OT: Lou is doomed

Where are people getting the 600 Million from anyway? It may be that her Vegas shows and music have grossed such a total during the c-ship, however that’s not profit margin and a lot of money needs to be distributed from those grosses to pay any and all parties involved. But yeah, TriStar and Jamie + fam are still shady AF so I can see them secretly take some money from that. But I personally struggle to believe she ever had such wealth.

That's exactly what happened.

 

Lou Taylor was a nobody before she engineered Britney's conservatorship. So she didn't "stash her loot" because back then she was a nobody. What happened is she managed to, like any other businessman with an asset, took advantage of her conservatorship control and influence on the Britney's family and went to the bank and borrow investment money she needed in order to grow the Kardashian brand. That's how the money went into the Kardashians, as a seemingly innocent legitimate investment. No need to invent a cartoonish storyline about someone smuggling 600 million from country to country.

Imagine thinking the best selling female of our time having $600M is far fetched. not to mention the successful tours, brand deals, magazine deals, probably under the table tabloid deals back in the day, the most successful billion dollar celeb perfume line, most successful residency of our generation 

 

 

both math and logic went out the window 

 

 

ot: I don’t believe they did it but I wouldn’t put it above loucifer and Kriss to use Britney’s money to fund many questionable things. Either way, if this is true, britney her never ending impacT

600 mil seems like a lot but then what is this:

Its not liquid money that was moved but assets. They moved $600 million in assets to the management company (stocks, property, etc.) and then moved it out.

We are talking about assets not cash. I.e stocks, property (both physical and intellectual like ownership in her perfume line) etc. Before the conservatorship, Britney was estimated to have $250 million in net worth (Assets - Debts) that we legally knew about, and there are plenty of Assets we dont know about.

 

The $600 million missing are assets Jamie Lynn moved into control of Lou Taylor, then moved out.

That makes more sense but I find it hard to believe Britney had $600 million worth of anything
