Britney’s legal action tells us that the rehab stories were true


Maybe all those reports about Britney writing 666 on her head and trying to hang herself with the bedsheets in rehab were true, because she’s obtained an injuction barring the British tabloids from reporting any more insider information about her obtained from the Promises facility that she left yesterday.

Britney won over the Brits today, after a British court prohibited media outlets from publishing details of her recent rehab.

The injunction stops “person or persons…who has/have been leaking information about Ms. Spears’ time in a rehabilitation clinic from further disclosures invading her privacy,” according to Spears’ London law firm.

One of the lawyers for the firm told TMZ there is someone who is trying to sell a story to English publications, and the injunction is targeted to stop that from happening.

The injunction does not specify who is pitching the story, but it appears it’s someone in a position to know about Spears’ stay at the Promises rehab facility in Malibu.

I distrust most everything I read in the British tabloids, but now I think they must pay better than their American counterparts! That still doesn’t mean that they don’t make shit up, though. The British rags to me are like the boy who cried wolf, I usually don’t believe their claims. Grazia and The Daily Star are the two that make up the most including quotes from celebrities. The Mirror invents stories based on paparazzi photos, and they’re not always right about their assumptions.

Other details from Britney’s rehab include the fact that she’s on medication for manic depressive episodes, she’s had bulimia since the age of 16, and she was caught groping a guy in the bushes after a recent tennis match.

Maybe Britney should have just played it off, though, because now people are going to believe even the most incredible stories about her. Some of them must have been right or she wouldn’t have bothered.

Britney was visited at her Hollywood Hills mansion today by K-Fed and perhaps the kids, where they were thought to have celebrated K-Fed’s 29th birthday. Britney’s boys are still in their father’s care, as she is not yet allowed custody.

There was a story that K-Fed was going to get a nice $19 million settlement in the divorce, which unsurprisingly originated in a British newspaper. It turns out not to be true. Britney had an ironclad prenup and TMZ says K-Fed is going to walk away with just a million and change. Guess her freakout wasn’t as expensive as everyone assumed.

Here’s a really old photoshoot with young Britney pre-babies and K-Fed. She was so pretty, but she always had that sort of dumb-ass vacant look in her eyes. Thanks to SuperiorPics.

    I don’t give an more credence to those stories because she is resorting to legal help. Just because the information really is coming from someone who stayed at the facility doesn’t make what they said true. It just makes their supposed “Information” more valuable. It’s sad when you can’t stay at a rehab facility and count on anonymity. She should have stood up to the people spreading this stuff.

    That doesn’t indicate that it’s true. It indicates she’s sick of anyone saying anything they want and everyone falls for it like sheep.
