Britney Spears Watch

Perez was over the moon when he was asked to participate in the Circus Tour by way of a video shoot - and now we have the entire sequence here for you to enjoy! Some of us don’t get to go to the concerts, after all, and missed all the glitz and glamor and fun that was had at Perez’s expense.

You think if I got to shoot him with a crossbow they’d bring the Circus to Alaska? No? Well, we’ll just have to live vicariously through them from afar, then!

Here’s the opening Intro video to the Circus Tour - with Perez Hilton!

In the meantime, Britney took an evening off on Saturday night (June 6) and spend some time to party at the MAddox nightclub - her first venture out since arriving with the tour. She didn’t stay out long, comparatively, heading to the hotel at 12:30 AM, to make it for a fairly early night.

Of course, that means that there’s some rumor about her being with an unknown male for company by the paparazzi on the scene! Apparently he was in the same car, while it made a “fast getaway”!

The second single from the upcoming Circus has been leaked - and you can listen to it right here! It’s another dance floor romp, inspired by Britney’s ever following paparazzi. Check it out!

Today, Britney Spears was back in court again, getting ready to go to trial next week for the misdemeanor driving without a license case. During the hearing today, Britney and her lawyer rejected a deal to avoid trial, turning down a $150 fine and a years probation. They feel that Britney’s being targeted just because she is a celebrity and doesn’t deserve even this minor criminal conviction on her record. They were looking for a infraction decision, and a lessor fine, stating that since she’s since turned in her Louisiana license for a California’s license, and the hit and run portion of the charge was also dismissed, the fine should be no more then the standard $10.

They also tried to put the case on hold, because Jamie Spears is still in charge of her conservatorship, thus making her “unable to participate meaningfully” in the case. This is all because of her fender-bender in August of 2007, and the hit and run charge was dropped after Britney compensated the other driver for the damages.

Now comes the funny part!

Just after the announcement by Britney’s attorney that she had rejected the deal, she got involved in a minor car accident. She wasn’t driving - thankfully - but her body guard ran into a paparazzo’s car as they headed to a store called Wasteland in West Hollywood.

I know right? No word on if there were any charges filed, or if this is one simply for the insurance companies to work out between them, but you have to admit the timing is funny as hell!

Britney Spears takes a break from her hectic schedule of misbehaving to do something radical this week: work!

She’s been busy guest-starring on the hit CBS show, How I Met Your Mother. Stepping into the shoes of a receptionist at a dermatologist’s office named “Abby,�? has been “terrific,�? reports Brit. “Everyone, including the cast, the crew and the producers, has been wonderful, and Abby is such a fun girl to play. I’m having a blast!�?

Brit’s bit part took the cast by surprise. “We were literally just filming last week and told, ‘You’re not going to believe who just called and said they wanted to be on the show,’�? recalled Emmy-winning lead Neil Patrick Harris.

Even more surprising - she’s no trainwreck! Co-star Alyson Hannigan admits she’s “quite impressed�? with Britney’s acting.

Many people were surprised then Adnan was forced to turn around and was refused entry to Britney’s neighborhood on Wednesday night, but what many people don’t know is that Adnan may have moved on to another women since Britney’s release from the psych ward.

According to an eyewitness, just prior to showing up at Brit’s house, Adnan was videotaped leaving Bossa Nova Restaurant in West Hollywood with a mystery girl on his arm. When Adnan spotted photographers, he quickly bolted, leaving the girl behind. The girl claimed she was a “business associate.�? (more…)

From the NY Post:

Britney Spears’ new bodyguards are on strict orders from her dad, Jamie: Don’t let her go to a bar or a bathroom alone!

The popwreck went to Jeffrey Chodorow’s new LA restaurant Citrus at Social on Saturday night with her father, a few friends and a woman described as “her chaperone.�? The group sat at a table to eat, but Spears hardly touched her lobster burger, preferring butter-fried frites and Tater Tots. (more…)

A restraining order against the man who’s been at Britney Spears’ side during her downward spiral portrays him as a Svengali figure who held her a virtual hostage in her home, drugged her, took over her finances and controlled the ravenous paparazzi “like a general.”

The order against 33-year-old Sam Lutfi was based on a lengthy declaration from Spears’ mother, Lynne, who says they met in October 2007, when he “essentially moved into Britney’s home and has purported to take control of her life, home and finances.”

Lynne Spears’ account of a long, chaotic night at Britney’s home depicted a drugged and confused pop star being led around by Lutfi, who was setting up pictures for the paparazzi even as she was spinning out of control.

The documents released by the court Tuesday ordered Lutfi to stay away from Spears, her homes, her parents and siblings’ homes and the hospital where she is confined for psychiatric evaluation.

On Monday, Lutfi told The Associated Press in a text message: “I have no problems with anyone writing anything negative against me. My image is not of concern, hers is.” He has not responded to further inquiry.

Lynne Spears said in the order that Lutfi “drugged Britney, he has cut Britney’s home phone lines and removed her cell phone chargers. He yells at her. He claims to control everything — Britney’s business manager, her attorneys and the security guards at the gate.”

Much of the 6-page declaration centers on the night of Jan. 28, just a few days before Spears was whisked by police and ambulance to a hospital psychiatric ward, where she remained Tuesday night. Her mother outlined increasingly bizarre behavior through the night, and said her daughter asked at one point, “When do I get to see my babies?” to which Lutfi answered, “Wednesday.”

Spears has been in court with ex-husband Kevin Federline over custody of their two small children, 1-year-old Jayden James and 2-year-old Sean Preston. She lost visitation rights last month after refusing to hand them back over to their father.

Lynne Spears described a harrowing night that stretched into the wee hours when she, her husband and a friend went to Britney’s home because they’d heard Britney was crying after a fight with Lutfi. Once inside, Lynne Spears said she was told by Lutfi that her daughter didn’t want anyone but her in the house and she was afraid to see her father.

Lynne Spears also said there were several photoggraphers present, who deferred to Lutfi. “The paparazzi reported to Sam and addressed him with great respect,” she said. “They treated him like a general.” (more…)

CNN reports:

The wife of Britney Spears’ paparazzo pal has filed for legal separation from him.

Azlynn Elizabeth Berry cites irreconcilable differences with Adnan Ghalib for the split after four years of marriage, according to documents filed Friday in Superior Court.

Berry, representing herself in court papers, seeks spousal support, and for Ghalib to pay her legal fees, the filing said. Her phone number wasn’t listed.

In recent weeks, Ghalib has been seen accompanying Spears on shopping excursions, restaurant outings and trips to the courthouse in her custody case with ex-husband Kevin Federline. Ghalib is said to work for the photo agency FinalPixx. An after-hours call to the agency wasn’t answered Tuesday.

Ghalib told the syndicated television magazine show “The Insider” on Tuesday that he had photographed Spears for several years before they grew closer in late December. (more…)

Crazy, meet crazazy: Britney Spears’ paparazzi bagman — whose wife just filed for divorce — proclaims that he wants to marry Britney, and more shockingly, that Britney wants to have his baby.

Rumors are also swirling that Britney is prepared to change her religious beliefs to be more in sync with Adnan’s religion: Islam. No word yet on whether she’ll convert, but if Britney’s affection for undertaking the religion of the moment, this seems like a plausible possibility.

Despite everything that has transpired between the two runaway trains, Adnan Ghalib tells “Entertainment Tonight” (via People) that their relationship is “far from over.” He says that he didn’t get involved with Spears to sell more pics. And here’s a howler: Adnan claims that when Britney was looking at pregnancy tests at a Rite Aid, she was “hoping” that she was pregnant with his child.

Apparently the Britney stand off earlier this month had a note found by her friend, Sam Lufti. But not just any note – it was a suicide note written by Britney.

Sam found the note on the bathroom counter in the days leading up to the meltdown.

The letter was filled with reasons why she didn’t want to live any longer, and included lines from a poem about death. Britney said she was sorry for making her life what everyone else wanted it to be.

Britney also mentioned in the letter how lonely and unfair life could be, how peaceful death seems and how her mind would finally be at ease.

BritneySpearsWatch.com wants to know: WHO AUTHORED THE POEM? IS THERE MORE DEPTH TO BRITNEY THAN WE REALIZE? DOES SHE ACTUALLY SPENT TIME READING LITERATURE AND POETRY?

451 Press received a press release from NBC Universal, which included a transcript of NBC News’ “Today” show exclusive with Meredith Vieira and a Spears Family Spokesperson. The spokesperson, Ms. Lou Taylor, stated that Dr. Phil Betrayed the trust of the Spears family, acted inappropriately and took advantage of them. Ms. Taylor also claimed that Britney never planned to appear on the show, and that Dr. Phil acted “self-serving” and that he “compromised” their relationship with Britney.

The Interview aired live yesterday morning on NBC News’ “Today” show - a full transcript follows. (more…)

BritneySpearsWatch.com has learned that Britney’s parents — particularly her dad — have been trying for months to get her admitted into a mental hospital for bipolar disorder.

We know Jamie Spears in particular has been convinced since last summer that Brit was suffering from a mental disease and not substance abuse (though the substance abuse probably is a contributing factor). Jamie has been looking for a way to push his daughter into a facility but she refused. In fact, we’re told she refused and continues to refuse to undergo a battery of tests that would officially diagnose whether she has bipolar disorder. (more…)

TMZ.com reported this morning on the matter between Dr. Phil and the Spears family:

Jamie and Lynne Spears slammed — and we mean slammed — Dr. Phil this morning, calling the way he handled his contact with Britney a betrayal, inappropriate and a total breach of their trust.

Spears family rep Lou Taylor told Meredith Vieira on the “Today” show that Dr. Phil actually broached the subject of doing a show about Britney, but that they nixed the idea, only to have Phil try to set up the show anyway and even go as far as ADVERTISE the exclusive. Taylor scorched Phil, saying it was even “inappropriate” for Phil to bring up doing a show, and that the family thought it would be detrimental to Britney. (more…)

Britney Spears was released from her “medical hold” at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center yesterday, but still needs psychological help. (As if that weren’t obvious already.) And guess who’s helping her? (This shouldn’t be that hard of a guess, if you read the headline above.)

Yes, that’s right. It’s Dr. Phil McGraw, who was thrown into fame after several appearances as Oprah Winfrey’s go-to psychological expert.

A press release quotes Dr. Phil making a statement about his meeting with Britney:

“My meeting with Britney and some family members this morning in her room at Cedars leaves me convinced more than ever that she is in dire need of both medical and psychological intervention.”

“She was released moments before my arrival and was packing when I entered the room. We visited for about an hour before I walked with her to her car. I am very concerned for her.” (more…)

TMZ was there as Britney Spears was wheeled out of her home last night on a gurney by paramedics. Look at that shot of her inside the ambulance — she’s smiling! What in the world is the problem here?

The short story:
The incident occured after a three-hour custdy standoff with Kevin Federline - Britney REFUSED to give back her kids. The police were called, Britney went crazy, she was hauled off for mental evaluation, PRAISE GOD.
