ord souce learngthpo su bug in legal analt areva martin to help break it all down for us. good morning, areva. >> good morning, eva. >> so let's start with the things i think fans were most shocked about. following her emotional testimony last week, the latest court ruling didn't end britney's conservatorship and a lot of people were expecting at the very least they would remove her father from it altogether. can you help us understand how the judge came to this most recent ruling? >> well, it's important to note that this ruling related to a petition that was actually filed in november of 2020. so it did not take into account the explosive testimony that we heard last week from britney. this was the judge ruling that britney's father would not be suspended as a conservator as had been requested by that earlier petition. also, this ruling confirmed that wealth management company bessemer would be co-conservator with britney's dad. >> and after her testimony,

jamie spears, her father, said twlu his lawyer that he was sorry to see his daughter was in so much pain and wants all parties to be able to respond to various allegations, but another reaction to britney testifying was that wealth management firm bessemer trust that you just mentioned they've requested to be removed as a co-conservator. what happens if that's approved? >> yes, that's a good question. so we know that ruling confirmed bessemer as the co-conservator, but immediately after that ruling came out, they filed their own petition asking to be removeds. if that happens, that would leave jamie spears as the sole conservator unless the court appoints an additional or a new wealth management firm to serve alongside jamie spears and we should note that right before that explosive testimony was given by britney spears, apparently she made a call to 911 reporting what she alleged to be conservatorship abuse. >> that is very interesting to hear. the other twist in all of this

that i think is fascinating, representative matt gaetz has britney has not respon eqsts yat have to gain from interesting plot twist. congress obviously doesn't have jurisdiction over the los angeles superior court, where britney's case is pending, but if she does testify before congress she would gain this national audience. she would be able to shine a bright light on what she has described as this conservatorship abuse. we know that there are advocates who are claiming that conservatorship abuse exists not only with respect to britney's case but in cases pending in los angeles, and other counties throughout the country, so it would give her an opportunity to shed light on this and perhaps put a little pressure on the los angeles superior court to provide more oversight with respect to her conservatorship and perhaps even launch an investigation which we know her dad has asked the court to investigate some of those charges made during britney's testimony last week.

>> yeah, this is a case that so many people are watching and are just really enthralled with. areva martin, thank you so much for your analysis this morning. let's head over now to rob marciano. >> hey, good morning again, eva. let's talk about hurricane elsa. the first hurricane of the season battering some of the islands in the caribbean. here's video out of st. vincent which saw 75 to 85-mile-per-hour winds. there you see the big waves rolling ashore and roof damage of homes in that area, and also, barbados sustaining some big winds. this is the first actually hurricane, proper hurricane to hit barbados in like 60 years. you can see some of the tree dahere so you know it came in with ll urs. 75r-ur, ill category 1 storm heading to the west at a brisk pace of 31 miles per hour. it's humming along. hurricane watches and warnings posted for hispaniola, jamaica and cuba. there you see it making landfall

in haiti today and cuba tonight. gulf of mexico on monday. at that point likely a tropical storm but may strengthen more than that and it will affect all of the florida peninsula. it's just a matter of what capacity and then heading up into probably parts of the southeast on wednesday and thursday and maybe all the way up the east coast, so it's definitely a storm that bears watching for us here in the u.s. that's a check of what's happening with elsa. good saturday morning. it's a foggy start here along the coast but we'll get clearing. we'll be heating up inland rand tomorrown to some mist and drizzle and cooler temperatures around the bay. so even a warmup a small one. mid-60s to mid-70s but the 90s to upper 90s in the inland valley and getting up toward lake cut where we have heat >> as you can imagine with a

name like elsa the memes have been flying around this week, and one of which saying she's going back to her home in orlando, florida. hopefully elsa won't be a bad storm and we can get by with this one. >> i thought she was from arendelle actually, elsa. >> i think that's somewhere in orlando. a pocket. >> thanks, rob. >> a lot of people are urging her to let it go. i'm sure. rob, thank you. as everybody knows it's july 4th weekend, which means big sales are under way right now, but which items should you buy now and which ones should you hold off? amy panos is the home editor of "better homes and gardens" has the answers that could save you some money. amy, good morning to you. thanks for coming on. >> good morning. >> so -- >> my pleasure. happy to be here. >> it's great to have you. i know you're going to quiz uswe should bu wait on some items.he a swe're ous get started with grills.

whato u guys t, buy or wait on this one? i'm going to go with wait. >> wait. >> i'll say buy just to be different. >> eva says buy. amy, what's the answer? >> all right, eva's got it. that is a strong buy. july is really the first time that grills start going on sale this summer, so if you need a grill, i would go ahead and get one, then you're still going to be able to use it for a couple of more months. so let's buy on that. in fact, at lowe's right now, there is a $50 off deal on select weber genesis grills so great time to buy it and use it tonight or tomorrow. >> i'm going to be using a grill tomorrow with these guys. janai is coming over and she wants us to make a lot of hot dogs so we'll be doing that. moving on to outdoor furniture, buy now or wait, what say you? what do you guys say? >> buy. >> what do you think? >> i'm going wait. >> wait. >> okay. the waits have it on this one. a little bit of a surprise, right? so, if you can hold off until august, september, labor day,

you're going to get the rock bottom deals on outdoor furniture, and i'm talking about the big things like outdoor tatisets, sofas, sectionalssome dea tad now for sure so, but if you're not super, super picky about what you're going to get and you just want an awesome deal i would hold a little bit lateonn the mmer. >>up is summerswimsuits and san. what do you say, buy or wait now. >> wait. >> buy. >> i'll say buy. >> oh, the buys have it. it is time to shop for this kind of stuff. but now in a normal year conventional wisdom would hold that the best deals happen later in the summer on things like swimsuits because it's high season right now, right, but the pandemic has made everything different and retailers are really into just moving the merch. so there are good sales to be had right now. in fact, macy's has 20% off certain summer items through i

think july 5th. i think that's on the graphic there and then j. crew has up to 70% off normal retail prices on things like swimsuits, so, if you feel like shopping, go for it, and another idea, if you've got little kids, buy a size or two up and they can wear it next year. >> go get those speedos, whit. here's the last one, sunscreen and bug spray. guys, what do you think? buy now or wait. >> wait. >> i feel like you have to use it. >> okay, so, she's right. you got to buy that if you need it. i say buy even if you don't need it. there are awesome deals right now going on, summer skin care, sunscreen, bug spray, it's interesting, it's high season. you'd think they wouldn't do deals but they do and, again, you can stock up. did you know that sunscreen according to the professionals has to be sort of shelf stable and at full strength for three years and for bug spray it's two years so you could buy a bunch of it now, making sure the

expiration dates are going to hold you for a couple of years, and use it next summer. in fact, tonight, if you can skittle over to target quickly tonight, before midnight, you can get a $5 gift card if you buy $20 worth of summer skin care. >> all right. >> one for four on that. >> sorry about whit. but thank you very much for joining us, amy, appreciate it. >> my pleasure. >> coming up here on "gma," the skin care secrets to get the summer glow in holiday weekend. plus, fourth of july food tips to make your get-together a hit. we will be right back. gether a hit. we will be right back. “cracked windshield” take 1. ♪ you say ♪

>> so, absolutely important. critical during the summer months so when you moisturize your skin it's important how you apply your moisturizer so you have your favorite lightweight moisturizer. what do you do? it's best to apply it on damp skin so that you really lock in that moisture. tap, tap, tap, pat it in gently for the best effect and don't forget to go beyond your moisturizer. i love a facial mist. it's a nice, quick way to give yourself a midday boost of hydration without running makeup. >> you say that we can make this mist ourselves, you say? >> absolutely. so my favorite mist is very easy to make, three simple ingredients, three tablespoons of organic aloe gel, a half a cup of rose petals and two cups of water. boil your rose petals, then drain about half a cup of that beautiful fragrant liquid, add three tablespoons of that aloe and you have an amazing cooling

facial mist that is full of antioxidants. >> we always hear about how we should stay hydrated. i'm feeling a weird mist. what is that? >> it's like a water gun. >> it will ruin my -- >> yes, it is virtually impossible to have beautiful radiant skin if you're dehydrated, so i recommend about 11 to 15 cups of water per day to keep yourself well hydrated. watermelon, cantaloupe and , gk celery count as well. >> so sunscreen is also important in the summertime. how do we make sure we're applying enough? what is sort of the hourly rate of sunscreen application? >> so absolutely, sunscreen is absolutely critical. we know it helps to prevent against wrinkles and sunspots and keeps us looking beautiful. so, if you're going outside, remember to apply your sunscreen 20 minutes before you go out if it's a chemical sunscreen. now, if you're in a pinch try a mineral sunscreen because that works immediately.

during the peak hours of the day which are between 10:00 and 4:00 p.m.10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. very critical. nice trick to know the shadow rule. if your shadow is shorter than you, the sun is high in the sky and you're likely at a higher risk of a burn. if your shadow is longer than you, then likely the sun's rays aren't as potent. so that's a great rule to keep you safe. don't forget your lips, scalp and ears, and invest in a powder sunscreen you can apply over your makeup. also, if you're getting wet, there's no such thing as waterproof so reapply frequently. >> let's talk about summertime acne prevention, the sunscreen, the masks, the sweat. everything going on. how do we stay on offense? >> yes, so, one of the first things that you can do is switch your cleanser, so switch from your hydrating creamy cleanser to a more robust foam or gel cleanser, which will do a great job of getting rid of dirt, oil and debris.

also, if you get that kind of cystic hormonal acne, try to incorporate organic spearmint tea. that can block some of those hormones. it's also a nice stress reducer so that's fantastic. switch your moisturizer from a creamy thick moisturizer to an oil-free moisturizer to help not clog your pores. >> some skin care basics, what are your go-to favorite solutions? >> so we're going outdoors, we're getting or encountering uv light and pollution, all those environmental aggressors, so i like bulking up on your environmental shield and do that by using antioxidants, so that uv light will create these free radicals and those free radicals come in and really terrorize our skin and poke holes in collagen and compromise our skin's quality so i love adding topicals like vitamin c, resveratrol to help squelch those free radicals and protect your skin all summer long. >> dr. henry, these guys do take

good care of their skin. i see them with eye patches on when we're getting ready in the morning. >> i love it. i can tell. >> it's part of the job. >> mostly when whit has had a late night, you know what i'm saying. >> got to hydrate. >> thank you so much for being with us. rob, i know you use the eye patches as well. >> and full mask. full mud mask on this morning. >> robf an iv fluids guy. >> i'll take the hydration anyway i can get it. that's for sure. good morning again, guys. this is a weekend where you don't want too much hydration or moisture in the air falling on your outdoor plans or traveling on some of the interstates so we got some spots that are highlighted that might be trouble. cloudy in the northeast, some leftover showers, not quite as heavy a rain as we saw yesterday but they'll be popping up i-95, i-90, then i-10 along the gulf coast where the heaviest rains will be today. tomorrow similar spot. hotter and dry across the midsection of the country. i wouldn't say it's full-on

sunny across the great lakes and the northeast tomorrow, but it certainly will be drier and temperatures warming up just a little bit for fireworks festivities and barbecues tomorrow night once the sun goes down and we start to light them up. much more so than we did last year, reason to celebrate and will be dry across the northeast and northwest will be dry and warming up as has been the trend the past two weeks. good morning to you. fog continues to scatter. our heat advisories to the north. look for upper >> and we're back. ready to get it popping tomorrow night at dan's place. call the fire department. >> i thought that was planned. a blue steel type of thing. turn around, give a look at the camera. pretty awesome. >> they told me there was no

hour with breaking news out of surfside, florida, just moments ago, officials announce they'll demolish the remainder of the tower as soon as tomorrow because they're concerned about the approaching storm elsa. the surfside mayor spoke just moments ago. >> instead of waiting weeks and allowing the bur rasy to crawl has made a very dramatic decision and sign the order to get this building taken down im fear was the hurricane may take it down, in the wrong direction, on top of the pile where we have victims. >> a key point here officials stre stressing that the search and rescue mission will continue, this is still a search and rescue mission. i want to go now to abc's trevor ault on the ground in surfside, he joins us on the phone. trevor, just say more about this

emphasis we're hearing from officials on the ground here that this is designed to enable them to continue the search and rescue mission instead of bringing it to an end. >> that's right, dan, and it really is a significant acceleration in their plans in terms of tearing down this building. last night the miami-day county mayor said this process was going to take weeks. they made a dramatic decision in accelerating this process and it speaks likely to the precariousness of the structure and the stability that is still standing and we've seen that has hindered the search and rescue mission already. thursday, shutting down those efforts for 15 hours and since then, since they've resumed their search itprevented them from enter some pockets of that debris. there are still a 124 people

unaccounted for and it seems they believe on top of preventing hurricane or tropical storm elsa from maybe toppling over the remainder of this struck dhur they believe this can bring this down in a controlled manner. and then, beyond protecting their hundreds of rescue workers who have been arguably in danger over the past week and a half, they'll be able to continue the search and rescue safely, they'll also now be able to access pockets of this rubble they had been restricted from because of the fear that the building was going to come down at any moment. the most recent forecast with tropical storm elsa recently downgraded, the most recent trend shows it heading mostly west of the area. that positive movement they don't feel they can take the

risk of leaving this structure up and they argue that taking it down on their own is going to help them speed up this process and maybe at the very least get some closure for some of these families, but having said that, the big question now is, execution, we can't ignore the fact that yesterday the mayor said this is a process that cannot happen quickly it's going to take weeks, now they're doing it quickly, we'll have to do it in a safe manner. >> emphasize a few points you made there, trevor, they'll try to do this quickly, it could happen as soon as tomorrow but they're not giving us a hard time line. the other thing point is, they're going to use explosives to fall in the opposite direction of the pile where the search and rescue mission third, they updated the numbers, 24 confirmed dead as of right now, 124 people still missing.
