BRITNEY SPEARS and KEVIN FEDERLINE
The prenuptial agreement Spears signed with Federline before they married in 2004 stated she expected to earn $143 million (GBP75 million) by 2009.
But she has made just a fraction of that after putting pop to one side so she could have two children with the former dancer, 14-month-old SEAN PRESTON and eight-week-old JAYDEN JAMES.
She has not released any original material or toured since 2003 and her lawyers estimate she has lost between $20 million (GBP10.5 million) and $45 million (GBP24 million) in the past two years.
Spears' accounts still appear healthy - she has a $125 million (GBP65 million) fortune including property worth $15 million (GBP8 million) and forest land in her native Louisiana worth $6 million (GBP3.1 million).
The singer served Federline with divorce papers last week (ends11NOV06), ending their brief, turbulent union.
