SAN JOSE (AFP) — A bikini-clad Britney Spears got her picture taken this weekend while relaxing and soaking up the sun on a Costan Rican beach where she was reportedly staying at actor Mel Gibson's property. "She did it again," the La Nacion daily said Sunday in a play on Spears' 1999 chart-busting hit "Oops! ... I Did It Again." "At five minutes to midday (Saturday), the artist appeared on scene on an ATV (all terrain vehicle) driving from the home of Mel Gibson, who invited her to spend a few days in Costa Rica" at his 163-hectare (402-acre) spread in the Pacific coast resort town of Samara, the daily said.
The story included several photos of the troubled pop star on Barrigona beach, in a bikini and sunglasses. Spears was in the company of her father, Jamie Spears -- who apparently told the paparazzi they could shoot all they wanted as long as they kept at a 50-meter (yard) distance -- and a young couple, the daily said. Gibson or his wife, Robyn Moore, were nowhere to be seen, it added. Spears, 26, appears happier since a Los Angeles court on May 6 gave her more visitation time with her two children, who are in the custody of her ex-husband Kevin Federline since the couple split in 2006, amid her spiraling personal problems and fears for her mental health.
Spears shot to superstardom in late 1998 with her smash-hit debut album "Baby One More Time," which she followed with another chart-topping success the following year, "Oops! ... I Did It Again."
Britney Spears throws up the peace sign (pictured below) as she leaves Bally Total Fitness in Culver City, Los Angeles on Wednesday.
The 26-year-old pop princess was in good spirits because she was recently awarded extended visits with her sons, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1. The extended visits are “recognition of the progress that has been made, a progress of structure and stability.” Yay Brit Brit!!!
While leaving Ballys, Britney was seen carrying the Radiohead album “In Rainbows”.
Britney Spears has been growing closer to her ex-husband Kevin Federline and the former couple even shared a tender kiss, according to new reports. The exes, who begun dating in April 2004, have started seeing more of each other recently thanks to Britney's dad, Jamie Spears.
Britney even reportedly gave Kevin a kiss in front of their sons last month after he started to drop them off to her house for visits instead of using bodyguards to do it. "Kevin was very upset throughout the ongoing court battle, and absolutely devastated when Britney was admitted to a psychiatric ward," a close friend of the couple's told Heat magazine.
"Since the appointment of Jamie as Britney's conservator, he's been acting as go-between, relaying Kevin's feelings of concern to Britney." "Despite the ongoing custody battle, deep down Kevin knows sons Sean Preston and Jayden James are better off with two parents in a balanced relationship. That's something he wants to rekindle."
Jamie has become closer to Kevin since Britney was hospitalised in January and the pair have even been snapped playing golf. Britney and Kevin have started secretly emailling and calling each other with the couple even spending a family day together over Easter. "It was initially planned as being just a day for Kevin, the two boys and their grandparents, but Britney heard about it and asked if she could come along," the source added.
"Kevin was all for it. They were evry civil and even loving towards one another; they hugged and talked at length while, Britney's parents Jamie and Lynn looked on."
She’s living proof that working out and eating right can really pay off. And Britney Spears isn’t shy about showing off her new bikini body. The “Gimme More” singer was spotted looking amazing on Malibu beach recently, and she’s reportedly lost 20 pounds in the past 30 days.
And now for the bad news… it seems like only yesterday that Brit was ordered to pay legal fees totaling more than $400,000. But that’s just the beginning of her financial woes.According to a new report, there are documents that claim Spears owes in excess of $23,000 in back taxes. It seems her brand-name companies owe the state of California from back in 2004. Making things worse, if she doesn’t pony up the dough, she’ll be charged interest and fees.
Britney Spears is confused as we all know but recently she has been spotted with a girl in various places. The small blonde and tanned girl was seen with Britney they were holding hands and kissing as they left an American bar.
In an interview with an American top magazine she issued a statement "She has a name and it is Becca. Yes were an item and if any one want to question my sexuality I'll egg there house"
Britney has apparently been with this "Becca" for about 8 weeks now and the pair are officially an item. Britney's mum Lynne Spears had this to say about a sudden change in her daughters sexuality.
"I hope this will do Britney a lot of good. If she can make this work I will be proud of I'm not ashamed of her I will always be a proud parent."
LOS ANGELES - An executive producer for "How I Met Your Mother" says he's open to having Britney Spears return for another cameo. "We always said, 'You know, if her character pops, we'll bring her back,'" Carter Bays told The Associated Press on Thursday. "I thought she was great. I was very proud of that episode." Spears, 26, garnered good reviews for her guest starring role as a goofy receptionist in the March 24 episode of the cult CBS sitcom. The show ended with Spears' character flirting with womanizer Barney (Neil Patrick Harris).
On the following episode, which aired Monday, the show introduced a "mystery woman" who's been sabotaging Barney's usually successful attempts to pick up ladies. Asked if Spears might turn out to be the saboteur, Bays said: "Could be. There's no reason why not." He also suggested actress Sarah Chalke, who guest starred alongside Spears. Bays said it was surreal to see Spears on the set. "It was totally weird. ... I think we have a very, like, kind of Midwestern homey vibe here on the show, and it was strange to suddenly have helicopters circling," he said.
So will she or won't she come back? "I don't know," he said. "I don't know the answer to that."
