Britney Spears is taking an 'indefinite hiatus' from work and putting her Las Vegas residency on hold to care for her ailing father who 'almost died' recently, the star revealed on Friday.
The 37-year-old pop star made the announcement in a press release as well as a social media post explaining that her decision to put the brakes on her career was to care for her father, Jamie Spears, 66, after his 'colon spontaneously ruptured'.
'Two months ago, Mr. Jamie Spears became seriously ill and was rushed to Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas. His colon spontaneously ruptured and he was immediately admitted into surgery,' the release stated.
Britney's father then spent nearly a full month in the hospital and is 'recuperating at home and gaining strength, and is expected to make a full recovery.'

The hotly anticipated Britney: Domination residency was planned to launch in February at Las Vegas' Park Theater and run through August, but it is now being placed on hold 'until further notice,' according to the release.
'I don't even know where to start with this, because this is so tough for me to say,' Britney wrote on Instagram Friday afternoon.
'I will not be performing my new show Domination. I've been looking forward to this show and seeing all of you this year, so doing this breaks my heart,' she continued.
The post was accompanied by an old image of a young Britney after a dance recital with her father and mother, Lynne Spears, 63, who have since divorced.
'However, it's important to always put your family first… and that's the decision I had to make. A couple of months ago, my father was hospitalized and almost died,' the star revealed to fans in the post.

She added that she was 'so grateful' that her father survived the ailment, 'but he still has a long road ahead of him.'
The Hit Me Baby One More Time hitmaker explained on social media that she made a 'difficult decision to put my full focus and energy on my family at this time.'
The star apologized to fans and asked for their understanding. She also provided information about ticket refunds, which will be issued in full.
'I am dedicating my focus and energy to care for my family,' Britney said through a representative. 'We have a very special relationship and I want to be with my family at this time just like they have always been there for me.'

Britney's father Jamie has been in control of her money and assets since a judge placed her under a conservatorship in 2008.
Prior to the judge stepping in, Britney's behavior had become erratic for several years. In 2006, paparazzi photos surfaced showing the pop star driving with her young son on her lap.
A year later she checked herself out of a rehab facility after just one day and then infamously shaved her head at a Los Angeles salon. Britney later re-entered treatment.
In 2008, Spears was hospitalized and placed on a 5150 hold after she refused to release her two sons to their father, ex Kevin Federline.

The Toxic singer's conservatorship, which is still in effect today, is overseen by her father and lawyer Andrew M. Wallet.
Jamie, it's said is so actively involved in his daughter's monetary affairs that he was said to have asked to see ex-son-in-law Kevin Federline's tax returns after he requested a $20,000-a-month increase in monthly child support, E! Online reported in March 2018.
The New York Times reported in 2016 that Britney was paying her father $130,000 a year to manage her finances and other affairs and that every purchase she makes is kept track of in court documents in an effort to keep her fortune in tact.
Britney's net worth is currently estimated to be about $215million, according to an October estimate from Celebrity Net Worth. This does not include any money she might've made from the Britney: Domination residency, however.
That now-canceled residency was previously marked a major milestone in her career.
The star was slated to make a little over a half-million dollars per show - a record in the industry.
The Grammy winner was also reportedly working on her 10th studio album.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
