Britney Released!

Britney SpearsBritney Spears has been released from the psychiatric ward at UCLA Medical Center, the L.A. Times is reporting.

According to the paper, Spears slipped quietly out -- compared to the massive fanfare that went on the night she went in.

A law enforcement source tells TMZ the hospital let her go "because she was no longer required to stay there after 11:30 AM." We have not confirmed this independently, however, if the hospital decides Britney is no longer a danger to herself or others, the hospital loses its basis to hold her against her will.

This is absolutely alsmost as nuts as she got when she was admitted... Why would they go against a court order when it was suppossed to be extended 14 days???

If anything happens to her wouldn't UCLA be accountable for letting her out???

"seriously people, how can you make such rude comments? if they didn't think she was capable, they WOULDN'T LET HER GO! it's one of the most reputable hospitals not only in the country, but the world. you don't even know what has happened before the hospital, or while in the hospital, but you still continue to judge - can't you guys for once actually wish someone well? "

Why are you even on this site? Celebrities are like piñatas, we raise them up to club them with a stick until they fall. I bet you would be happy if they just reported that every celebrity is a good parent and goes to be @ 9:30 every night.

She is destined to destroy herself. Just wait. It will be either alcohol, pills or a combination of both.

Ugghhh!:  1468 days ago

OH NO! She needs to be in there. Her head is massively messed up. The girl has clearly shown signs of schizophrenia for a long long time. She needs help!

She needs to stay away from Osama Lutfi. My Gosh - the name Osama must mean the devil or something. Because that guy clearly is! He should have been arrested for nearly murdering her by giving her drugs and cutting her phone lines to the outside.

Wow.......this is not good at all.

# 26 Indubitably.

Schools, lock your doors before Britney comes in and ask or more likely scream for a student
to take home with her.

Britney will be back in 5150 faster than Crossroads went to DVD.
