Britney Spears Attempts Suicide

According to The News Of The World:

Britney Spears attempted suicide in rehab last week, according to The News of the World.

The paper claims Britney also wrote devil's number, 666, on her shaved head and began screaming "I am the Antichrist!" at frightened clinic staff.

"She was crying, and shouting, 'I am the Antichrist!' a source told the paper.

Great, we had to hear about Anna Nicole Smith for 4 weeks straight, now we get to hear about how Britney is going insane as well. Maybe the rest of the news media should do what Craig Ferguson did and not talk about her until she's better: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bbaRyDLMvA

=/ Things have really gone downhill for her. A story like this will only cause the media spotlight to grow exponentially on her, which is at the heart of the problem. I only hope that the media chooses to address this as unfortunate and will have her best interests at least partially in their writings.

I usually don't participate in gossip, but this one has me trying to read between the lines. "The News of the World", as was pointed out, will tell anything to sell papers. I am hoping, for Britney Spears' sake, this is the case. On the flip side, look at her past exploits over the last few years. Someone see a "miraculous" recovery sometime in the future, with a movie, book(s), new album dedicated just to it, ect., for her? Part of a plan? Get attention now, look desperate, then "bam"...found God, some other faith, or other miracle...then more popular then ever? Alot of this just isn't rational, even for the irrational

That seems a little far-fetched, but then again, your title is "You wouldn't understand.." so i'll just assume it makes sense and is (possibly) logical, lol.

Well let me see. She was a disney mousketeer. Went on to be a bubble gum superstar singer, while dating Justin Timbelake(ehhhhhhhhh, yuck, I see nothing worth while in him -but anyways), had a 50+hour whirlwind Vegas marriage. Than the frosting on the cake, Married K-Fed. Can I say Justin is/was looking better.......

I can only imagine, those poor children she has. Lucky they are young enough atm....

By the way. One more thing. If I understand correctly. Rehabs are suppose to be strict. I think you are suppose to be supervised the first few days with what they deem as dangerous objects....So the thing with 666 in the head, can I say real big time tabloid gossip.

I feel sorry for her. Her mother is responsible for this. Ever since she was a teen ager, her mom treated her as a commodity. Ther enormous pressure put on her during her teen age years has caused this.

She is in a really desperate state. Few days ago (after shaving her head), she forced into a hotel. She didnt have any money or credit card. She posed with unknown people in her underwear and was begging them to be her friends.

Here is the story

Quote:
Having fled rehab at an all-time low, troubled pop princess Britney Spears tried to hide away from friends and family by drowning her sorrows at the Mondrian Hotel in Los Angeles and begging strangers to be her friend.


Hotel guests revealed how she:
• Constantly swigged booze at the pool side
• Paraded around the pool in her underwear
• Tried to shave her legs at the sink in the changing room
• Was not allowed to book a hotel room because she had no cash
• Posed for photos with guests as if they were her best friends

"It was all so sad," one eyewitness said.
"She seemed out of control and like a lost soul." Spears, 25, stumbled into the swanky Hollywood hotel on the morning of February 17 - wearing an electric blue wig to cover her newly shaved head.

The pop princess tried to book a room but was refused when it emerged she had no credit card or cash - just half a credit card number scrawled on a piece of paper.

Guests and hotel staff said it was clear the singer had not been to bed and was wearing her clothes from the night before.

One worker insisted: "She looked rough like she hadn't slept. Crusty eye make-up and everything." The previous evening fans and photographers had watched aghast as Spears turned up unannounced at a hair salon and shaved her own head with clippers, before getting two new tattoos at a nearby parlour.

But her behaviour was about to get even more bizarre - proving to everyone that she was a superstar spinning out of control and desperately needing help.

As the Toxic star headed towards the pool area at the Mondrian Hotel she immediately turned heads. Without a bikini, Spears stripped down to a black bra top - reportedly given to her by a stripper - and blue knickers, and began lounging by the pool.

A 29-year-old hotel guest described how she walked into the pool changing area - and saw the singer shaving her legs at the sink.

"She had her legs up in the sink and was just shaving them right there," the woman said. "It was weird.

"She just suddenly started talking to me, asking where I was from and what my name was.

"She was wearing what looked like her bra and underwear - along with a blue wig.

"I kept questioning myself about whether it was her or not.

"It's not a sight you expect to see - Britney Spears shaving her legs at the Mondrian Hotel."

The woman said Britney kept going backwards and forwards to the bathroom, changing her wig.

"She kept going to the bathroom and every time she came out she had changed," she said.

"At one point she came out wearing a blonde wig, which she had on the rest of the day.

"She had no concept of what she was doing or what the people around her thought about it.

"It was sad, she looked in desperate need of a friend."

Spears was so desperate for pals she approached complete strangers at the poolside and asked them to be her friends.

"She asked me if I wanted to sit with her," the hotel guest revealed. "I said I was there with a girlfriend but told her she could join us if she wanted.

"She said 'I'd love to. Let's get some drinks' and sat with us for the rest of the day."

The singer began necking alcoholic drinks, getting through them so quickly she barely had time to finish each one.

She started with spirits poured by the hotel staff, raided a hotel guest's mini bar and poured vodka into a Red Bull can, then ordered pitchers of mojito cocktails from the bar.

"She constantly had a drink in her hand - I'm not even sure she finished any of them," the eyewitness said.

"She came across as fun and giddy and really sweet. She was very talkative and asking random questions."

Worried about the stares Spears' underwear was attracting, guests asked if she wanted to borrow a bikini.

"Britney had asked one of the hotel managers for a bathing suit, but they don't sell them in their gift shop," the onlooker said.

"My friend told her she had a spare one if she wanted to borrow it.

"Britney said 'Can I go and put it on in your room?' and she went upstairs and came back down in the bikini.

"While she saw there she raided the minibar. She grabbed bottles and just started mixing drinks.

"She was maxing a drink up, taking a couple of sips and switching to another one.

"At one point she poured liquor into a red bull can and started swigging out of that." At the poolside her drinking continued.

"Britney ordered a pitcher of mojitos and probably had three or four drinks from there," the source said.

"She also had a frozen drink before that and she'd help herself to what everyone else was drinking as well.

"She had a rum and coke and drank someone's margarita."

But the guest said despite her constant slurping, the pop princess appeared able to handle the booze.

"She didn't really seem drunk, she was holding her own," the woman said.

Bizarrely for someone so heavily in the public eye, Spears wanted her picture taken and posed for photographs with guests like they were close friends.

"Everyone there assumed that she would want them to respect her privacy and not ask for photos with her," the guest said.

"But it was Britney who kept saying 'Let's have some photos taken together y'all.

"It was like it made her feel like they were long term girlfriends, all having fun together.

"When she was with these 'friends' she seemed bubbly, like she was desperate to win their approval.

"But away from them she just looked lost, sometimes looking into space. It just seemed like she was looking for a friend."



i really hope that somehow she is able to recover.
Its a tragic tale of a greedy world ruining a talented person.

I absolutely agree with you. The media won't quit hounding her because there's too much money involved. The sad thing is, our society wants more of this trash flooding our tv's, magazines, and internet.

To be perfectly honest and cynical, I think the only reason she's putting on this act is because she's so naturally desperate for attention, always has been, and can no longer get it by making a slutty video or doing the standard stuff she used to.
