Britney Spears - Is The Meltdown Coming?
Britney Spears is on the comeback trail, and reports indicate that the pressure might be getting to be too much for the Louisiana native. The singer, who turns 27 on December 2nd., has been working hard to get her body and voice into good enough shape to take on the rigors of a world tour, but signs of strain are appearing.
According to Star insiders close to the celebrity say that Britney has endured two relatively bad "incidents" in recent weeks that call into question her ability to perform. After her son Jayden became ill during a visit she was supervising, Britney fell into a "mini breakdown," according to a source.
"After that, she didn't want to return to California to bring the boys home," the source said. "She just crumbled. Jamie Lynn found her crying and did everything she could to comfort her."
Atfer this incident, Britney Spears traveled back to the mansion she shares with her father, Jamie Spears, in sunny Los Angeles. Once there, she had a worse incident that could have ended up with her being hospitalized.
"She was acting irrationally, screaming and frantically cleaning", says the insider. "The she told her dad that she was going on another vacation alone clear her head."
Jamie told her she couldn't go. This caused Britney to break down worse.
"She locked herself in the bathroom, and Jamie tried to knock down the door," the insider continued. "Britney was screaming 'I hate you, I'm a prisoner. I just want to live a normal life.'"
Her tantrum continued unabated for a period of time, before she finally calmed herself down and avoided another public trip in an ambulance.
As her career gets back on track, like it has with the success of her Womanizer video, incidents like this might become more common as Britney is called upon to perform more regularly, and more responsibilities are placed on the singer.
