Britney Spears

Britney placed in padded cell

Britney’s doctor has decided to extend her stay to 14 days — a sign that there’s a serious problem. She’s also been placed in a padded cell, usually done if a patient has become violent or can pose a danger to herself or others.

So what’s life like for Brit?  She’s not completely under lock and chain — she can use her own clothes, receive visitors, make calls on the public phones.

But it’s not the life she used to have…and she’s not the Brit we used to know. What a sad, sad turn of affairs for this pop star. Hopefully, the only way to go is up.

Spears’ parents seize legal control, cut off Sam

Courts have granted Britney Spears’ parents, Jamie and Lynne Spears, temporary control over her finances, visitor access, medical records, and even her property (for example, they can change the locks of her mansion, or raid her growing collection of pink wigs). She is still undergoing psychiatric evaluation.

The first thing the couple did was to issue a restraining order against Sam Lufti, Britney’s friend. He says: “I object to this. Britney is fully capable of handling her own finances. Her doctors are capable of handling her health care. You’d think in a time like this, the family would be at the hospital taking care of their daughter, rather than fighting for her money. How sad.”

Britney’s hospitalization part of “intervention”

Why would Britney check herself in at 1 am? Did something happen? Was there an ‘episode’ or some imminent danger to health that it couldn’t wait till morning? CNN reports that it was an “intervention” staged by her psychiatrist. It could explain why her mom had been visiting her. And why the reunion was particularly tense.

Family sources say everyone is worried, but hopeful that this could finally mean that Britney is willing to get the help she needs. “She’s been manic for years,” they said. “Please, pray.”

Britney rushed to hospital

Britney Spears was rushed by ambulance to the UCLA Medical Center for a psychiatric hold at 1 am Thursday morning.

She went voluntarily, sensing that she needed help. She hadn’t slept for days and had been driving madly around the streets. She even joked to attendants about how this was her second visit.

Spears’ mother, and friends Alli Sims and Sam Lufti were with her when the police and fire department arrived. A family source said: “Britney has been prescribed medication which she refuses to take. This is just another sad, sad evening.”

Britney shops for pregnancy test

Oh my God, is Britney pregnant???

She and her sleazy paparrazo boyfriend were seen shopping for a pregnancy test in their neighborhood Rite Aid store.

On top of a mental breakdown and losing visitation rights, this is the last thing she needs.

Friends have said that she’s going through a lot now, and just needs “time and space” to sort things out. It would help if she used her common sense, too. How is she going to fix her life and career if she keeps doing STUPID THINGS???
