A recap of Britneygate from the past sixteen or so hours:

As I was sleeping last night (lie, I was reading Order of the Phoneix and drinking hot chocolate) Britney Spears went batshit crazy. First she wouldn't hand over the kids, who were supposed to be turned over to Kevin Federline. Kevin sent his bodyguards to pick them up and as the court ordered monitor was putting Sean Prestin in the carseat, Britney locked herself in her house with Jayden James. The police arrived, the helicopters arrived, the paparazzi arrived and then the ambulances arrived. Apparently Britney was under the influence of a suspicious substance and was deamed a danger to herself and others around her. They finally busted through the house and got the baby and took Britney to Cedar's Sinai hospital where she is currently in the special needs unit, which is generally used for housing patients who have tried to commit suicide or have overdosed. She has to stay there for 72 hours but is likely to stay there longer, given that she freaked out on the hospital gurney and laughed hysterically the entire time. Kevin Fedrline now has the two boys and is currently in court trying to take away Britney's visitation rights. The hospital and police have made a statement and said that neither drugs or alcohol were involved, even though they originally thought she was on something when they first got to her.

I'm all about making fun of Britney and crazy people do make me laugh but this is beyond funny and extremely sad. The craziness of the paparazzi aside, imagine being two years old and watching your mom have a meltdown? Hopefully she gets some help and the people that have been assisting her in her downfall (Sam Lufti, Alli Sims, etc.) by doing nothing to actually help her get better stay away for good. Britney's father, Jaime Spears and her sister, Jaime Lynn are reportedly at the hospital with her.
