Paparazzi Buzz Rehab for Buzzed Britney

Britney SpearsTMZ has learned a gaggle of paparazzi just took off by helicopter from the Santa Monica airport, headed for Malibu. Their target: Britney Spears in rehab.

Spears checked into the ritzy Promises treatment center in Malibu today. We're told the doors are off the chopper so the paps can get a clear shot of the grounds as they hunt for the troubled singer.

46. We should be asking ourselves why have we cared for almost ten years about this untalented, piece of trailer park trash. I mean my god what is happening to this country or world for that matter. She's having a breakdown. Who really should give a s**t. Just like the American Idols. Seriously, everyone writing here should wake up and ignore her. She hasn't even made a good contribution to popular music. She's was always a bad role model and....it's just pathetic already people. Britney, Paris, Lindsay these people are famous for bulls**t.

47. Just because she is not mothering does not mean she is neglecting or abusing her kids. She has the money (and family) to pay for some one to take care of them and that is all the court cares about. I did a lot worse then she has done for a whole lot longer and no one ever came and cked on my kids or took them away. I am long time sober now and feel for Brit. Its not easy being an alcoholic and its not easy staying sober (in the beginning) Everyone should back off and give her the room she needs. I think she has post partum despression that is driving her at this point. 2 babies in less then 2 yrs is hard on the body.mind and emotions

48. How very sad that she can't even go to rehab in peace. If it were me I would just pack it in & give up, obviously she's never going to get the help she needs. Rehab is supposed to be a private affair. I hope she does get help, my kids & I used to really like her now I just feel sorry for her.

51. What the hell?! Enough already! How much of a lowlife do you have to be to want to do something like this? Yes, the girl may be out on a limb and has no idea on when or how to come down. But she is still a human being! How is this doing anyone any good? Please tell me.

Let the girl get her act together. Seriously, this is the lowest of the low things the paparazzi has done that I have read in a long time.

52. That is disturbing. The girl can't even go to rehab without the paps hanging out of helicopters trying to get a pic. She needs to be left alone so she can rebuild her life and be a mother to her children.

53. Finally, she wasn't quite in the limelight anymore as the Anna Nicole controversy is in full swing which would be the perfect time to lay low and enjoy the privacy that these superstars "desparatly want". So much for keeping a low profile. I think she deserves it. If she doesn't want to attention... move to Nebraska and stop heading publicity stunts!

54. I have a poll for you

Do you think TMZ will publish photots taken by paparazzi of Britney Spears attempting to get help in the privacy of a rehab facility?

yes 100%
no 0%

We don't need to see these pictures. She is human and very fragile and vulnerable right now.
Every website and celebrity magazine should pledge not to publish or buy photos of stars in rehab. That is sick and could assist in preventing a recovery.

56. Leave the poor girl alone and let her heal. I went through a similar divorce at her age (being used for money by a gold digging hubby while I was truly trying to make my marriage work) I can't begin to imagine what it must be like in her shoes - having to deal with such hurt, custody, and being hounded unmercifully by the paparazzi on top of everything else! Have a heart! She's only human.

57. Who cares? There are kids with cancer and HIV, dying. She shaved her head, big deal it will grow back.

And she jumps on the rehab train....bore me some more please. Now let her behave her brat self and become a descent mother such as other young women her age.
