Britney Spears

  • Profession: Singer
  • Place/Date of Birth: McComb, Mississippi, United States, 02 December 2020

The 25-year-old mother-of-two reportedly visited Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Centre in Antigua for just one day last week.

Entertainment website TMZ.com said that according to sources Spears was at a Los Angeles in-patient facility.

Her wild weekend began on Friday night when she turned up at Esther’s Hair Salon in Tarzana, California, and demanded that owner Esther Tognozzi shave her head.

When the hairdresser refused, Spears grabbed the clippers and did the job herself, as shocked passers by and photographers watched through the windows.

The star then moved on and got two new tattoos of pairs of pink lips, while listening to a Janis Joplin CD.

Unconfirmed reports claimed she later turned up at the Cedars Sinai Medical Centre in Beverly Hills wearing a dark wig. But apparently she left soon after arriving.

Britney ’may be rebelling against mother’ - Feb 20 2007
Britney Spears’ decision to shave off her hair might have been an act of rebellion against her mother, according to a US report.

As celebrity watchers struggled to make sense of the singer’s move, it was also revealed she’d been deeply upset by the recent death of an aunt from cancer. Britney was said to have been very close to Sandra Bridges Covington, who died last month.

Another report suggested the 25-year-old may have opted for the cut after hairdressers discovered her hair was so damaged by dye-jobs that bald patches were appearing.

She and her mother had been feuding over Lynne Spears’ demand that her daughter end her wild behaviour, a source from the X17 photo agency told the New York Post.

Spears’ surprising new hairdo, which has led to speculation she may be on the edge of some kind of breakdown, did not stop her socialising.

On Saturday she was spotted at West Hollywood’s chic Mondrian hotel sporting a short blonde wig and a mismatched bikini and smoking "cigarette after cigarette". On Sunday night she covered up with the wig again to go to at the Roxy nightclub.

Salon owner Esther Tognozzi is now selling Spears’ jettisoned locks on a specially created website, with an asking price of a million dollars (£510,000). The proceeds will go to charity.

Hours before committing her hair to history, Spears was talking about it without giving any clue of what she was about to do, video footage on website TMZ.com showed.

As she walked through Los Angeles International airport on Friday afternoon a photographer told the star: "I love the brown hair."

Spears replied: "Thanks, I think I’m going to keep it this way."

’Out of control Britney needs help’ - Feb 19 2007
Britney Spears’ recent behaviour is erratic and worrying and she needs help, according to a leading psychologist.

The pop star reportedly checked into rehab, then checked out again within 24 hours, before shaving off her own hair in a Los Angeles salon.

Professor Cary Cooper, professor of psychology and health at Lancaster University, said: "She’s obviously quite a disturbed girl at the moment, she doesn’t know who or what she is.

"If she’s checked in and checked out within a 24 hour period, it shows she’s kind of lost control. She obviously needs some help, and needs somebody to take hold, because her behaviour is very erratic."

Professor Cooper, an expert on stress, added: "I think it’s a call for help. She’s saying, ’I’m very confused, I’m not in control of myself at the moment, I need a fresh start, I need help’.

Biography

Born in December 1981 Britney Jean Spears shot to fame in a blaze of pigtails and knee high socks in 1998 with her debut single Baby One More Time. Just seventeen years old Britney quickly became the biggest name in pop following up her success with Oops, I Did It Again, Lucky and Stronger as well as two albums, also called Baby One More Time. However, this wasn?t the first time Britney had tasted fame, she had started her career in American Saturday morning TV?s Mickey Mouse Club alongside pop rival Christina Aguliera and boyfriend Justin Timberlake.

During the early years of her career Britney made millions thanks to merchandising deals and successful hits. But she faced controversy throughout with rumours of plastic surgery and feuds with other stars. Her third album, which saw her take a sexier and more adult turn, was a relative disappointment while her critically panned but box office friendly debut movie Crossroads was a fleeting highlight. Meanwhile her long relationship with Justin Timberlake came to an end in 2002 amid claims that her reputation as a virgin was false and in fact that she had cheated on the N*Sync star?Britney responded by sharing a kiss with idol Madonna on stage at the MTV Awards ? an act which saw the pair criticized more than admired.

The kiss signaled the end of Britney?s pop-childhood and with the release of In The Zone and the hit single Toxic she began building a new fanbase. A drunken Las Vegas wedding to childhood friend Jason Alexander ended in annulment after just fifty five hours but, rather than concentrate on her career, Britney continued leaning on the lovelife self destruct button. She, despite advice to the contrary, married dancer, aspiring rapper and all round rat-faced bad boy Kevin Federline in a trailer trash wedding in 2004 and within months announced she was pregnant.

Having given birth to son, Sean Preston, Britney seems to have put her career on hold despite the success of a greatest hits album and the launch of her fragrance, Curious. Meanwhile rumours persist about the state of her marriage to Federline with the press accusing him of taking no interest in his wife and son and of cheating on the singing star.
