Even though the paparazzi follow his and Britney Spears‘ every move, Kevin Federline says it’s nothing unique and the only difference is the media attention.

Kevin Federline says, “People put it up on this pedestal when it’s really the same way that everybody else goes through their stuff, you know?”

“Even though everything is so publicized and everybody is looking at it, it’s normal for us,” he says. “I think the infatuation with the whole thing is that watching us go through things makes other people feel normal.”

The court has decided that it will keep it’s original ruling in the Britney Spears vs. Kevin Federline custody case, today.

The ruling by Superior Court Commissioner Scott Gordon came after a full day of testimony on a bizarre situation this month in which police had Britney Spears taken to a hospital after a standoff in her home when she refused to return the children to Kevin Federline.

Gordon scheduled another hearing for Feb. 19.

Britney Spears went to the courthouse briefly during the afternoon but never went inside, and she left amid a swarm of paparazzi.

The hearing in family law court was held behind closed doors after reporters were ordered to leave.

Court spokesman Allan Parachini said those who testified were two Los Angeles police officers; Paula Strong, the court-appointed monitor who was present for the visit at Spears‘ home; Lisa Hacker, a parenting coach who has been working with Britney Spears and Kevin Federline; and Lonnie Jones, the bodyguard who went to the home to get the children.

At least she doesn’t have to wait until April to try again. Get it together, Britney!

Shar Jackson says her ex, Kevin Federline, is holding up well during the ordeal with Britney Spears.

“He’s good,” Jackson, 31, told People on Thursday at the GBK luxury suite in the Beverly Hills Thompson Hotel. “I talked to him the other night and he’s fine. He’s just happy that the boys are safe. That’s his biggest thing, making sure that the boys are in a good place and that they’re happy. And they’re happy.”

Kevin Federline, 29, now has sole legal and physical custody of his sons with ex-wife Spears – Preston, 2, Jayden, 1 – following the pop singer’s meltdown. A hearing is set for Monday on whether to resume Britney Spears’ visitation rights.

Shar Jackson, who has two children with Federline – Kori, 5, Kaleb, 3 – has remained close to her former boyfriend, speaking with him “all the time,” she says.

Jackson says that for the sake of the boys, Britney Spears should focus on her own needs right now.

“I’m just one of those people that believe you need to take care of yourself before you can take care of anybody else,” Jackson says. “My only advice would be take care of yourself. If you need help for whatever reason, go get it. Do whatever you have to do for those babies.”

Kevin Federline’s first attempt at musical stardom, the ill-fated hip-hop CD Playing With Fire, was one of 2006’s most notorious failures. Not only was the record met with universal critical disdain, its release came only days before his then-wife Britney Spears filed for divorce.

And according to a story on Eonline.com, while this ego-shattering experience has — at least for now — convinced K-Fed that he’s not going to be well-received as a hip-hop artist, the former backup dancer hasn’t given up on a career in music and is now focusing his energy on working behind the scenes.

“Kevin has been actively producing, nurturing new artists and doing it all from his home studio so he can be there for his kids whenever they need him,” E! quotes a source close to Federline as saying. “He loves the music business and is committed to making it a career for himself, even if it’s not as a singer.”

Meanwhile, lawyers for K-Dog will be back in court on Monday for a hearing to determine whether or not Brit-Brit’s visitation rights for the ex-couple’s two young boys will be reinstated or remain suspended.

Despite winning full custody of his two sons on Friday, Britney Spears’ ex-husband Kevin Federline is livid about Brit’s surprising release after only 36 hours of psychiatric evaluation. And, a source close to K-Fed reveals exclusively to OK!, that’s caused him to beef up security.

“Kevin is so worried that Britney will rush his house and try to grab the boys, just like she tried to do last February,” explains the source, who tells OK! that K-Fed has doubled security at his Tarzana, Calif., home.

“The boys are safe for now,” the source reveals to OK!. “But Kevin feels Britney is clearly deranged, and there’s no telling what she’ll do. After all, this is a woman who two days ago barricaded herself in her bedroom with her youngest child for three hours!” Adds the insider, “You can’t get mentally well in a hospital after 36 hours.”

The source recalls an encounter from February 2007, following Britney’s multiple failed trips to rehab and her public head shaving: “She was so scared of losing custody of the boys that she drove to Kevin’s house three times and tried to wrestle her way inside to get her sons,” the source tells OK!. “When Kevin refused each time, she took out her frustration on a photographer’s car by banging it up with her umbrella. There’s no evidence that Britney’s any saner than she was that day. In fact, she appears far worse.”

TMZ has just learned that Britney Spears’ visitation has been suspended!

The commissioner in the Britney Spears Vs. Kevin Federline child custody case has just issued his order –Kevin Federline gets sole legal and physical custody of Sean Preston and Jayden James Federline.

Brit’s visitation has been “suspended pending further order of the Court.” The order is in effect until January 14. There will then be a hearing to determine where the case goes.

Hours after Britney Spears was rushed to the hospital on a gurney, Kevin Federline’s lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan called an emergency meeting in the couple’s ongoing custody battle Friday morning at L.A. Superior Court.

Spears’ attorney, Tara Scott, was also present.

A rep for Kaplan told reporters, “Due to the circumstances, Mark Kaplan will not be making any statements to the media today.”

A source tells Us Kaplan planned to ask the judge to strip Spears of visitation while she’s on a 72-hour lockdown at L.A.’s Cedars-Sinai hospital. She has been labeled a “special needs” patient, a hospital source tells Us.

After she was taken to Cedars-Sinai Thursday (following a nearly three-hour custody standoff involving her sons), LAPD Officer Jason Lee told City News Service that Spears appeared to be under the influence of an “unknown substance.”

Last September, Los Angeles Superior Court Commissioner Scott Gordon called Spears a “habitual, frequent and continuous” user of alcohol and controlled substances, and ordered her to undergo twice-weekly random testing.

Two weeks later, she was temporarily lost of custody of her sons; Federline now retains physical custody.
