Britney released from UCLA hospital Pop singer Britney Spears was released from a psychiatric ward at the UCLA Medical Center today after nearly a week of treatment. This afternoon, she reportedly checked in to the Beverly hills Hotel, followed by a parade of paparazzi.
After leaving the hospital late this morning and spending a short time at her Coldwater Canyon home, Spears got in her Mercedes sports car and began driving, pursued by paparazzi who sometimes hopped out of their vehicles and surrounded her car in traffic to capture photographs.
Beverly Hills police Lt. Tony Lee said his department "got a call to keep the peace about 3:20 p.m. in regards to Britney Spears at the Beverly Hills Hotel." He said the singer checked into the hotel, escorted by two unidentified men presumed to be security guards. Lee said police have not stopped Spears or detained any members of paparazzi. |
