Britney Suffers Another Breakdown

Brit had another episode of crazy night last night -- but this time it was due, in part, to her car ... and didn't end with her strapped to a gurney.


TMZ caught a smiling Britney in the Valley last night -- no pap-pal Adnan in sight -- as she went to Long's in Studio City around 7:00 PM. The smiles didn't last long, though. Just minutes later, she pulled over on Sunset Blvd., where lensmen told her she had a flat tire.


Brit abandoned her Mercedes in the middle of the street (taking the keys with her), jumped in a paparazzo's car and went home. LAPD towed the car to a nearby lot for safekeeping, Spears will be charged $104 for the tow and $35.60 for storage. Spears then brought her brand of crazy back to the Four Seasons -- which is apparently letting her back in -- but only stayed an hour before taking off for The Peninsula for the night.

61. Britney looked composed and quite attractive. One thing is for sure, with all the trouble she has with that benz I certainly would not want to own one. The Camry on the other had is always reliable!

62. I don't know about the rest of the posters here, but I'm beginning to get a feeling of helplessness when I hear about Britney. Can't they lock her up now? I would think that locking the monitor outside would be contempt, & what about kidnapping or hostage taking charges. BRITNEY NEEDS TO BE STOPPED ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. It become clearly evident that she will only stop when somebody's dead. I just hope it's not some innocent pregnant woman with her 3 young children & beloved family pet that's in the car Britney slams into - or anybody else for that matter. My initial reaction to seeing the photo of the ambulance in front of her house was that of Anna Nicole. I'm beginning to think that was a premonition.

63. Sad how it takes most of you 30 seconds to read something about her and even less time to have your brain come up with something ugly and nasty. Yeah, thats exactly what we were put here for. The O N L Y thing worse then
this young womans life situation is THE MEDIA covering her every waking moment so they can make a buck on
someone elses tragedy. Before you open your lenses, and mouths, try walking in someone else shoes.

65. She had a car towed because of a flat tire???? What an idiot. Why don't those wonderful paps change it for her?

66. Were those police officiers at her car window? I am so sick of our taxpaying money going towards her need for pap attention. I have had 2 flat tires and I called AAA. Why is it that she needs and gets the cops? She is wasting their time and taking them away from actually doing real work elsewhere. At that time, they could have been where assistance was really needed but they of course were tied up talking to the psycho.

67. You're Retarded, Why do people feel it is necessary to correct the "mistakes" in others posts? I don't recall anyone claiming to be some kind of gramatical or spelling scholar here. It's not like people are typing an essay for a final exam, just quickly entering in their comments. At the risk of sounding hypercritical, but since you brought it up, I don't recall where typing in all CAPS is proper English format either. So in that since, you pulled the biggest boner ever. Relax, be a little nicer. And there is nothing wrong with RoughDaddy wanting to know if he is Muslim. People in the western world right now have an interest in the religion and how being a Muslim effects their daily lives and behaviors.

68. Ok, can we get real here?

Britney Spears is acting this way because she has more issues then we can count. She is addicted to fame, she may be addicted to drug/alcohol, she is addicted to the drama and every time someone comes along with this “Support Poor Britney” stuff you are just making life worse for her! You think you are helping in telling her “Britney, just get away for a while and stay home, get your act together and GET THOSE BABIES BACK FROM K-FED (though none of you speak very kindly of the children’s father)” but all you are doing is reinforcing her mindset that everything she is doing is right.

This is a very sick, disturbed young lady that needs to be in treatment for each of her demons, be they chemically produced, environmentally produced or mental disease. But to do this, she has to admit she has a problem and is the problem. And if you keep supporting her and reinforcing her you are making her worse and worse and will ultimately be the reason for her downfall. Not the pap’s, not K-Fed, not the media, but you.

I hope she can see the light and get the help she needs. The last thing she needs to focus on right now is her career or her children or her fans or anything else. She needs to focus on getting herself together.

So, all you supporters…..just leave her alone. And all of the paps and media will stop having her to follow around when she is in a hospital getting the help she needs.

69. I think the paparrazzi flattened her tire. Those people are a danger to her. Turnabout is fair play Britney, hire a large group of people wth cameras and make one photograper's life a complete circus for one month. Hire about 30 people get a photographers address and camp all those people out around said photographers house for an entire month. Follow their wives around... follow their kids to school and take pictures of them. Flatten their tires just so you can get pictures of them.
Everytime anyoe in the photographers family goes out to get coffee, the paper, groceries, make it so a small trip for them becomes such a hassle they would rather just not go anywhere.
Hell, you have enough money to print your own magazine. You could cal it Britneys Bulletin..
"Photographer's wife seems to be on antideppressants.. kids failing school and said photograher hitting the bottle how much longer beore photographer loses wife, kids, and home because he is cheating w/mistress."
Get a big shot of the photographer w/mistress. :) Would be lots o fun.

71. first, Adnan is NOT married...
second, she is a celebrity, would you blame her for having someone take care of her car? i dont think you would see many celebrities change their own tire - and yes, that's why they have assistants, so they dont have to worry about it;
third, i'm sure she couldn't help where she got the flat tire - that's one of the most absurd things i have ever heard...
fourth, if people keep catering to her, like this pap for instance, i dont blame her. if you're idiot enough to do something when she asks, then you can't exactly call her a spoiled b*tch;
fifth, who cares.... i find it amusing that people have not only so much hate for someone, but they spend so much time, the same people, everyday, saying the same things - when you stop slamming her, there will be no money to be made, so stop posting.

i wish her the best. i have bipolar disorder and i know how rough it can be. once she finds stability in her life, which she will, she will be well and have her children back.

72. Please, please, PLEASE TMZ, NO more news about Britney. How can she get well with you and the paparazzi constantly stalking her. Mama Spears, get off of your lazy ass and go rescue your daughter. She has supported you for years, built you a mansion in Kentwood, new cars every year - it's time for you to step up to the plate. Don't say that Britney doesn't want any help, where there is a will, there is a way. Don't talk to Dr. Phil anymore, he will just blab everything to the media. Ask someone where a good Mental Health Clinic is and get her there PRONTO.

73. Hey, Papney Smear, when you own a car you have to do things like check the tire pressure and change the oil. ROTFLMAO! She STILL has the "fake spare" on the right rear!! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,! She is SO lazy that she can't get AAA to come to the house or have her "assistant" take the care in for proper care? AND the coppers just let her abandon it in the street? After the other night, I guess that she just wanted to get away from them before they captured her crazy ass again. Get you tires fixed, Papney, and drive to a galaxy far, far away.

74. Somehow I don't think K-Fed would be that interested in his boys if their mother worked at Denny's. He's a a slime and in the words of Geroge Carlin - "Show me a crazy woman and I'll show you the man who made her that way." I do believe she has mental issues and not substance abuse, I think at one point she kept it under control. But, when you have two children within two years, a husband that is never home and spends your money on his friends and picking up woman, a family that treats you like a meal ticket, you are going to have some issues.

Does she need help, of course she does, is she spoiled, rich and an egomaniac. Yes, but the record labels, media and her handlers made her that way. If you constantly tell someone they're special, they will begin to believe it. K-Fed is no better than Britney in the parenting department. His only interest is the money and the way things are going, he just might get it. If this young woman doesn't get some real help soon, I would guess she will be dead within the year.
