Britney Spears Enters Rehab! ...How the mighty have fallen...

[swirlundergrounder]

(NEW YORK) Ñ Britney Spears entered rehab Tuesday after a bizarre weekend that included shaving her head and getting a new tattoo.
Spears' manager, Larry Rudolph, told People magazine's Web site that Spears, 25, had voluntarily checked herself into an undisclosed treatment facility.

"We ask that the media respect her privacy as well as those of her family and friends at this time," Rudolph was quoted as saying.
The Associated Press was attempting to reach Rudolph and other representatives for Spears.

Since she announced her separation from Kevin Federline in November, Spears, the mother of two young sons, has been seen partying with Paris Hilton, and her appearance has been increasingly sloppy.

On Friday night, Spears grabbed an electrical shaver at a San Fernando Valley salon and shaved her head completely bald.

Video on KABC-TV showed a newly shorn Spears with tiny tattoos on the back of her neck as she sat for a new tattoo Ñ a pair of red-and-pink lips on her wrist.

Entertainment TV shows and Web sites reported Friday that she had gone in and out of rehab that week. Some reports identified the facility as Eric Clapton's Crossroads center in Antigua, in the Caribbean, but the AP wasn't able to confirm those reports.

Kind of sad how many rumors get maid up. I heard that she was in Miami the day before (or 2) and flew back american airlines coach because it was such an emergency that she get out of here. and no one would comment except that it was an emergency. so then I hear the emergency was that she was raped here....

with all those bodyguards sounds like a hard feet.

She just not ready to clean up yet, plain and simple.

Recovery means having an open mind and the willingness to change. It requires more than signing your name on the dotted line to check into treatment.

I'll admit, drugs and alcohol got the best of me too. People could have lectured me till they were blue in the face, but until i was ready to change, it wasn't going to happen. Hopefully she gets it sooner than later.

She actually was here last week. My friend sold her a couple g's worth of clothes at Bebe in Aventura Mall last Tuesday night... then flew to Cali with her to hang for a few days. My friend was in the room when her mom and manager wisked her off to rehab in Antigua. I didn't believe my friend either til she showed me the non-disclosure agreement she had to sign and played me several voicemails from her co-workers telling her that news reporters were at the store looking for her and a voicemail from Britney apologizing for the abrupt ending to the visit.

This is true. You have to want to recover/break off from whatever substance holds you down, be it coke, K, pills, booze, or whatever. She's simply not at that point yet in her life. It's a vicious cycle though, she's stressed from the media covering her antics (one local pap I know says 'she's paying someone's mortgage right now'), and her only way of coping with the stress is through excessive partying and substance abuse.

Now I'm not saying that she should just do it until she's dead, that would be sad, but at this point, the best her staff and friends could do is watch and make sure she doesn't do any serious damage to herself. Her hair will grow back and she can work off the excess flab, that's not serious damage. They have to watch out for her getting into a car, etc...

I've dealt with people like this before. I used to think that through being persistent, you could get them off whatever their demon was, but in the end, they have to want to do it, and the best you can do is just watch and make sure they don't permanently self-destruct. You can nag all you want, but unless they want to, they won't get off whatever ills them.

I hope she has friends that care at this point.
