16. How about the man she was married to at one time? They had one of the most extravegant weddings in Hollywood of all times. I think she beat the holy crap out of him. The divorced.

19. I think Britney needs to take a good look at Liza- that's her future if she lives that long and doesn't straighten out.

20. For publicity???!!!!! Oh Please - - this is one of the most famous women in the entire world - known typically by just her first name for the last 4 decades . If anything she wouldn't want the publicity to rob the few small-minded people with small-minded comments posted here.

21. You can collapse from simple dehydration. I hope it's not serious. She's a pro. Hugs.

22. Why does anyone have to say something ugly about this woman? At 57 years of age she got a cosmetics promotion, I forget the company, I think it was Revlon or Loreal. She has one of the best vioces, ever. Id like to see Britney Spears ofr Christina Aguilera , or someone like this sing as she does.We'd all have to hide if they did.

25. I find it completely disgusting that when something bad happens to someone ike this, that people have to say something mean about that person. The world is so full of no class it is dispicable.

29. Wouldn't you take someone that passed out to a hospital instead of hotel? If it had been a heart attack or some other serious illness, she would have died She probably looked in a mirror.
