Britney Checks Into Rehab - Out a Day Later

TMZ has learned that while Britney Spears checked-in to rehab, she refused to stay and checked out -- less than twenty-four hours later!

As "EXTRA" first reported, the pop star entered a rehab facility two days ago. Now TMZ has learned that the center was located outside of the country, and she refused to stay. PEOPLE confirms that Brit was at Eric Clapton's Crossroads rehab facility in Antigua.

TMZ is told that Britney checked in at the urging of friends and family, after being seen intoxicated in public places and was so "exhausted" on New Year's Eve she collapsed.

According to TMZ sources, Britney is on her way back to Los Angeles.

A rep for Britney could not immediately be reached for comment.

47. She was raised as a christian so she knows the truth. She is headed for rock bottom if she continues to ignore what she knows is right.

48. Something is wrong with this chic...I think being married to Kevin Federline all this time made her a bit wacko...I think she's doing all of this for attention from a special old flame maybe...She need to wake up and and be a grown up. She's acting like a drunk teenager. Grow up and be an adult Britney

49. What I think happened was that she didn't want to get rid of K-Fed, but she listened to everyone anyway, and now she's miserable without him. She's on this self-destructive path because she's so miserable. I'm not going to judge whether Kevin was good for her or not, but we didn't see this side of Britney when she was with Kevin. I don't know. She's just a mess and she needs help. Sad, very sad.

54. I hope she goes back, I hope she will get to a point of knowing that there is help and that she has to do it for herself, not the press, not her friends or family. She just may not be ready, but I hope it's soon.

There is hope. Addiction for women NOT in the press is such a private hell, hers is public. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

When your ready Britney, the help is there!

58. If she lives through this, she'll go to rehab and make comeback album about how she's changed and then not tour because she needs to tend to her boys. The best thing to happen is for her to kill herself like ANS. Then the children won't suffer as much
