Reports are now claiming that Britney Spears was taken to the UCLA medical center early this morning at approximately 1:30am Pacific Time and was placed on a 5150 hold, which means that she was deemed a danger to herself and others by her doctors. OK! Magazine reports:
Within minutes, Britney's mother Lynne Spears, who after several months of being out of the picture, had flown to L.A. on Sunday to be with her distraught daughter, pulled into the Summit gates.
At the time, X17online.com had reported that the pop star had attempted suicide. However, they soon amended that report when Britney's pal Sam Lutfi contacted them to say that "Britney is fine.""
However, despite Sam's claims, it appears that all was not well with the pop star because she was escorted by police as she traveled in the back of an ambulance to the UCLA Medical Center around 1:00am Pacific Time. Specifically, OK! says:
Fifteen minutes later, Britney exited the rear entrance of The Summit (reserved for fire and emergency vehicles) in the back of an ambulance on her way to UCLA Medical Center. Following behind her in a Range Rover was her mother Lynne and Adnan. Sam was behind them, riding solo in an Escalade, with Britney's cousin Alli Sims and a friend pulling up the rear."
This aforementioned scene can be viewed here in the YouTube video below:
But what could possibly send Britney to the hospital again? Although nothing has been confirmed at the moment, many speculate that it could be that she was deemed a threat to both herself and others by her psychologist and therefore has been committed. OK! further reports:
If it is true that Brit's doctor has placed her on a 5150 hold — meaning she is a danger to herself and others — it is unlikely she'll be released after only two nights like she was after her Jan. 4 standoff."
So, if Britney really has been committed and placed on a 5150 hold, she might not get out of the hospital for a while. However, nothing has been fully confirmed at the moment. We will keep you informed about the details of this situation as more information becomes available. In the meantime, I'm so distraught over this, I'm going to go look into a mirror, smash it, and then pick up all of the shattered pieces as a physical manifestation of the inner emotion I have right now that's screaming out "I need to pick up the pieces of my life" inside of me. Good day.
