Lindsay to hire Britney Spears ex manager

Larry Rudolph once credited with turning Britney"s fortune around during her public meltdown in 2007 has reportedly been employed by Lindsay. She has done so as to save her career post her current prison as well as rehab terms. She was put behind bars after she violated the conditions of her probation from a 2007 conviction as she was accused of driving under the influence.

However, in spite of the disturbed actress/singer telling friends that she's ready to return to her work, her latest manager has the 'lockdown' on her, till she is ready to come back to the spotlight.

As per an insider, even though Lindsay says that she"s ready to work, she"s seriously under a lockdown.

She has spent a total of 22 days of a 90 day court ordered stint stay in the rehab and has completed only 13 days of her total 90 day jail term, last month. She said that she looked up to people like Brtiney and is currently scared.

She also said that there are many people around her, who would say that they cared about her for all the wrong reasons. There were many who were pulling from her but thankfully, she had her share of well wishers as well.
