Britney Spears has lost it -- and by that, we mean all her touring equipment.
TMZ has learned a bus carrying all off Britney's tour equipment rolled off the road in Parkes, New South Wales in Australia.
According to police there, it happened around 4:30 PM during a bad storm. The winds became too strong and blew the truck off the road, rolling it over.
Police say the driver was taken to the hospital, but the equipment was undamaged.
So Britney has all the tools to lip sync tonight at the Rod Laver Arena tonight.

With his Brooke-alike girlfriend on one side and some fellow wrestling goons on the other, Hulk Hogan took time out from bleeding all over the place to char his topless man breasts in the Australian sun on Monday.

Hopefully, the 56-year-old and his gal used protection.

If you thought Hulk Hogan was going to lose the main event at something called the Hulkamania Tour, then OJ Simpson wants you on his next jury.

In a shocking turn of events, Hogan was victorious over Ric Flair in Melbourne, Australia last night. Hogan was bloodied, but prevailed -- much like he was when then the two "fought" during a press conference Wednesday to promote the event.
It's good to see Hulk back to fighting grown men in tights, rather than fighting grown women in court.

With her conservatorship body back to pre-meltdown shape, Britney Spears once again hung out in a skimpy two-piece swimsuit in Sydney this weekend.

If she's not careful, Brit's bikini bottom could sink to a new low.

After being slammed by Aussie fans, media, and politicians for her first concert, Britney Spears left her hotel in Perth this morning to get ready for her second show there.

All Britney needs is a little support and she'll be fine.

There's something kinda sexy about talking with Aussie babe Sophie Monk about eating kangaroos and keeping koala bears as pets.

Just don't make the mistake of saying she's from New Zealand -- she hates that.

In yet another example of how protection pays, the glove Michael Jackson wore the day he married Debbie Rowe has just gone to the highest bidder -- for a fortune.

Bonhams and Goodman auctioneers hit the gavel after someone bid $49,000 to become the proud owner of Jackson's white bejeweled glove. The newly-minted gloved one is Warwick Stone, who bought it on behalf of the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
Jackson went on to have two kids with Debbie Rowe -- we don't think the glove was ever removed.

That's not a stuffed animal, it's Koda -- Australia's smallest horse.

The American miniature dwarf horse stands less than two feet tall, weighs around 77 pounds, and despite many health problems recently made it to his first birthday.
Verne Troyer can finally go horseback riding.

We officially apologize for poking fun at Sam, the koala rescued from the fires in the Australian wilderness. Sam was photographed drinking bottled water and we made a joke....and it was out of line.
Turns out lil' Sam suffered burned paws and was taken to the Mountain Ash Wildlife Shelter -- nothing funny about that. But since she's been at the shelter, Sam has drawn the attention of a male koala named Bob. The two are now said to be inseparable.
We made a joke about Sam drinking bottled water and then going to pilates and eating sushi. Bad joke, bad us.

After battling some of the worst wildfires ever to hit Australia, a firefighter shared his bottled water with a pampered koala on Monday.

Afterwards the new friends went to Pilates and dined on sushi.

Nicole Richie is getting her required exercise! The plumping minx was seen perambulating in Australia yesterday -- in this 1930s South Philadelphia sofa cover.

Miss Richie is in Australia while her baby daddy performs down there ... um, with his band.

On their way to sainthood, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are going to be recognized by the Australian government ... with their very own postage stamp. Lick that!
The Sydney Morning Herald reports that supermom of the world, along with hunky partner Brad Pitt and daughter Shiloh, will be reproduced from the cover of New Idea magazine -- which is sponsored by Australia Post -- and slapped onto a .50 cent stamp. A New Idea spokesman says, "These stamps will become instantly collectible and sought after by philatelists around the country."
For some time now, both Ange and Brad have been sought by philatelists who would like to stick them.

Whoopi's long overdue employment announcement wasn't the only news on "The View" yesterday. Elisabeth Hasselbeck revealed the thigh slapping news that she has chopped off a chicken's head -- and PETA thinks that's just foul!

After using hand motions to describe how to accurately decapitate a chicken, grossing out the audience more than she usually does, polite talk then resumed. Now Lizzy's in the soup with PETA, and they had this nugget for the right wing chicken winger:
"PETA has two words for Hasselbeck, 'Cluck you!' Next to Barbara and Joy, who expressed compassion, Elisabeth sat there chirping about the joys of killing defenseless birds. Conservatives love animals too, and she ruffled a lot of feathers today. Now that Whoopi has joined the show, maybe it's time for Hasslebeck's head to go on the chopping block."
Reps for "The View" had no comment.

A bearded cowboy-looking Hugh Jackman was caught on the beach with his wife and kids on Sunday in his native Sydney.

Smokin' hot Hughie, seen here with his daughter on Bronte beach, is a prime example of a DILF. Doesn't this make you want to go down under?

Matthew McConaughey definitely isn't taking his time in Australia lightly. The sweaty playboy has been seen getting hot and heavy with numerous girls since heading to Queensland to film his latest movie, "Fool's Gold."

Matty added one more lady to his harem yesterday, when he was photographed going buckwild with a local "sheila" at an Irish bar. The two sucked face while "dancing" to a live local band.
Observers said that the actor was surrounded by females all through the night, but was selective about who he would allow himself to be photographed with, until finally, after hours of partying, McConaughey and an unknown brunette called it an evening and headed out around 3 AM ... to get a "kebab."
