Britney Spears Freak Out

I generally like to post about 'high politics' but I do take the occassional plunge into the gutter. it being Sunday and all, I thought it was a perfect time for a gutter ball. I give you: Britney Spears.

I don't much keep up with Britney's comings and goings but after her breakup with her husband it seems like every day there's some new story about bizarre behavior. This article pretty much takes the cake:

Britney checked into an Antigua rehab clinic last Thursday after hitting rock bottom during a four-day booze bender in New York. But she stayed less than 24 hours before returning to California, where she briefly visited her sons in Malibu before shaving off her hair, getting tattooed and dashing to a hospital in the early hours and asking for help...Emily Wynne-Hughes, who was in the tattoo shop, said: “After she left, we said to each other, ‘We just saw a huge celebrity on the verge of a nervous breakdown.’

It would seem so. Wow.
