Britney lost it a long time ago
Monday 07 January 2008
As I type this blog Britney Spears is going through one of the biggest battles of her life. The battle to stay on the straight and narrow. Let’s face it though, throughout the whole of 2007 she was far from sorted in the head.
This time last year I was in LA and popping out to The Abbey one evening with my good friend Perez Hilton and we watched Britney walk in with a few of her ‘leeches’ who claim to be her friend (but will sell their story quicker than you can say Britney-goes-commando).
That evening Britney went up into VIP and sat within view of everyone and quickly went back into a VIP toilet and came out looking off her rocker in front of the whole club. Let’s just say she spent twenty minutes in the loo calling in her pals individually for a ‘chat’ and then left the club where the paps had gathered waiting for her exit.
Until seeing her in real life I didn’t believe she was THAT messed up and out of control. The crazy-eyed star was totally beyond help back then a year ago - and now it’s got to the point where I think we’re in danger of a new chapter. And it ain’t good!
On the plus side from Thursday I’ll be in LA to bring you the gossip from the Golden Globes! But there may be one small problem - the screen writers strike that’s been gaining momentum since November and now the actors plan to strike and not show up!
I could be short of gossip if the stars do indeed strike and refuse to show up. But will people like Keira Knightley definitely not turn up???? Keira would be p-i-s-s-e-d big style if she won for Atonement and wasn’t there to collect her gong. And what about the Oscars?! This writers strike is seriously ruining my awards season!
My Dad came up with a good idea though - why don’t stars like Angelina Jolie, Cate Blanchett, George Clooney etc etc offer the writers some of their monster royalties and be one with it! It would solve the problem and let’s be honest - they can afford it!
PS. I have a stinking cold! I got away without falling ill throughout most of last year. It finally got me when I quit the booze, the showbiz nights out and started eating healthy. The moral to this story is......continue going wild and you'll be far healthier! I've learnt the hard way. Sniff sniff. Boo hoo.
