Britney Spears Wigs Out

Pop princess Britney Spears had quite the wild weekend and “Extra’s” got the details on her wigged-out status!

On Friday, “Extra” caught up with a then-brown-haired Brit as she landed at LAX.

When complimented by a photographer on her luscious brunette locks, Brit quipped, “Thank you, I think I’m going to keep it this way.”

But in the next few hours Britney had a change of heart, as she headed to a Tarzana, Calif. Salon, where she shaved her head before getting inked at a Sherman Oaks tattoo parlor.

“Extra” later spoke to Emily Wynne-Hughes, who was a witness to the Brit event of the year.

“She was definitely having a rough time,” Wynne-Hughes said of Spears’ demeanor and newly shaven head. “It did seem a little weird for her head to be shaved. But, she was coherent enough to decide what she wanted to have for a tattoo and there were moments throughout where she seemed like she’s having a good time.”

Wynne-Hughes also revealed that, “Halfway through she asked for her purse… and she reached in it and pulled out a CD. That CD happened to be Janis Joplin and she asked if we could play it. After she was finished getting her tattoos… [she] seemed like she was in a better place.”

For more on Britney’s wigged-out weekend, tune into “Extra” Monday night!

Gosh whatever it is that is going through Britneys mind gosh just leave her alone she can handle her own stuff……I really think people such as the media should keep out of her life….their just making things worse…..al of the stress that she’s being put under leads her to do dumb things….that’s why she should justkeep the help from her family and friends, that’s it…..w

I am sure that if most of us had our lives publicised in the way that Britney does - that at some point there would be a part of our lives that would catch the imagination/or opinions of other people. It just so happens that everyhting that she does is magnifined and spun in a way that makes people believe that what they are seeing and reading is true - at the end of the day we can only assume! No-one but her knows exactly how she is feeling and why she is behaving the way that she is being perceived to be. iF those of you who are judging her sat and thought about a TIME WHEN YOU BEHAVED/ACTED OR FELT INDIFFERENT THEN I AM SURE YOU WOULD BE GLAD THAT YOU DID NOT HAVE TO SHARE IT WITH THE REST OF THE WORLD. Some people are just too judgemental. She is human as we al are and just as fallable as we all are.

I think Britney does need an intervention, not because she’s a bad mother because I know she LOVES her sons more than her own life, but because she realized that her husband, who was a bottom feeder and had nothing to begin with, but she still honestly loved him anyway, was in it for the money, media, and fame! THAT’S GOT TO HURT LIKE HELL!!! I think she needs to go home to Kentwood for a few months with the kids, talk to a professional, and learn to “breathe” again! There are thousands of “Britney’s”, male and female, out there that have had their hearts broken by someone that they thought honestly and truly loved them all to find out they were being used, cheated on, and didn’t know how to deal with it; to be at someone that you truly loves every beck and call, all to find out you’re being used would be massive pain for anyone! I think we should all give her a break, HER HEART IS BROKEN, and look at things from her perspective, sure she’s MAJOR RICH AND A REALLY BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMAN, but money can’t buy happiness or love and in a sense I think that’s what the end of her marriage was, trying to buy Kevin’s love. Kevin Federline, being the nobody that he was and still is, blew a chance at REAL happiness with Britney and his sons by using her as an open bank with no end to the withdrawal of funds; he is DEFINITELY a fool! Britney, like Tara Reid, Mary J Blige, Drew Barrymore, and other very warm-hearted celebrities will get it together; she just needs to grieve! I’M ROOTING FOR HER!!!!!

Give the kids to Kevin and let Britney continue with her self distruction. A person must love themselves first and obviously Britney have none for herself much less those precious boys.

As for people saying that Britney is an unfit mother is unfair and nasty. Can’t believe people can be so cruel when comments like that come out. I have 3 very small children and got a good idea what she must be feeling like. Those awful postnatal feelings of ungly-ness, confusion, everybodys doing better than me, i’ll never be like i used to be, im an awful mother. I was hit like a stone with post natal depression and know what agony is it. But i’m ok now and she will be in time, she will be a great mother. Give her a break. People are idiots.

I think she has flipped her wig! She needs to seek some serious HELP! I also think her chidren should be taken from her until she gets it together. I was a young mother younger then her and had my kids 11 month apart and never had a problem and never divorced 6 months later. I agree with the person who wrote she shved her head cuz Kevin said he wanted hair folical for D.N.A. The girl needs help.

i say leave the girl alone. She has to be under a c ton of stress..To the poster unfit mother how dare you say she needs her kids taken away. are you a mother? do you know what is is like to have 2 children then then like 6 months later be getting a divorce. i mean come on. The only reason you say that is because of what u think u know about her. To many people are believeing what these “reporters” are telling us. Did you ever stop to think that what has happened to her happens to a lot of parents everyday. i have dropped my child when she was little. and i felt so terrible. now if i had had the press all in my face about it i would feel even worse. Do i think she is a bad mother NO. I think she is having a really hard time. i am the same age as Brit and i can tell you that if i was going through what she was going through i prolly want to make a change too. So what that she shaved her head. Maybe it was a personal renewal. i mean we don’t know. not that it matters it is just hair. people read too much into it. You have to understand that she is 25 and has never been normal. maybe she just wants to be normal for a while. i say leave her alone let her be her. one more thing… I am adopted and i know what those kids would go through if they were taken away.. it is no way to live. I don’t care how much u disagree with me. it isn’t healthy. and it isn’t in the best intrest of the child to rip them from the only person that they know as a parent and force them to live with strangers..it sucks. so yeah i agree that she is having a tough time but who doesn’t every now and them.. LET HER BE!! all we can do is pray that she make the right choices in her live and pray for her family to be there and support her and guide her through this tough time in her life.

Britney needs help. It is clear with the way she is acting. Remember, she just had a kid - maybe postpartem - maybe bipolar - maybe she was in an abusive relationship and can not cope.

Regardless - the public needs to let her deal with this. And “tv” needs to be unbias in telling her story.

Sorry Extra - you certainly earned no extra points with me in your broadcast of this episode. You just mock it and add fuel to the fire!

I am an occasional viewer, and have been a long-time subscriber to People® Magazine, and for the first time, although far from being a star of Britney Spears for her performances, I am feeling extremely sorry for her. This is the first time I have ever felt compelled to comment on a story, after watching tonight’s cover story (2/19/07) of Britney’s head-shaving and tattoo-parlor episode on TV. I think it is blatantly clear that Britney is experiencing a stress-related incident (if not a break-down).

To the Paparazzi: please find it within your heart to just leave her alone, instead of driving her breakdown for the sake of making a few extra dollars! Who wouldn’t, after a marriage and son within a year, and then a son and divorce the next year? All at the age of 25, and all under the paparazzi spotlight?! Who amongst us would not also have experienced extreme stress (let alone a potential breakdown) without the same pressures, and we don’t have cameras in our faces every day, exposing every move we make to the world? Come on Moms, you know what I am talking about!

To Lynn Spears: I know Britney is an adult now, and a mother herself. Please try to use your influence with your daughter to use some of her money and publicists to “disappear” for a while — take her boys away, even if it means moving to a different area of the county. Demi Moore did it.
I am disappointed in the way Mark McGrath reported Britney’s weekend exploits — instead of reporting the story with some sympathy, you tagged on a poll, asking which Britney “look do we like better”! Mark, I really was giving you credit of being a fairly reputable celebrity, but this was cold! Please use compassion when reporting your stories.

And to say I agree with Barbara G, why don’t they donate the hair instead of attemtpting to sell it, that’s sad.

What a shame about the hype of SELLING her hair…..shame on the alledged salon for doing this or alledged workers there..instead of gaining a monetary value on the locks..I would think and hope that any woman would give a second thought about how this could benefit a woman who’s undergoing chemo/radiation and losing her hair.

Reg Julie M Comment about Brit just getting out of rehab. Give me a break! 1 day does not constitute rehab

I think that she is not out of control she know’s exactly what she’s doing, She’s tired of being the known as the “Nice” girl she wants to be bad! It’s must be hard being a world wide star, you have to be perfect. Yup…it must be hard….

She has proved over and again she is not a fit custodial parent. Her kids need to be removed from her care immediately, and she should only get limited visitation with a CPS official/therapist present. Just call her Anna Nicole junior, her cold body will be the next on on a slab.

Hasn’t anyone stopped to think, Britney just got back from “Rehab” and MAYBE they told her she could lose custody of her children if Kevin pushes for a hair sample drug test. You can trace back from the root!

she loves the spotlight as soon as all the attention is turned to someone else she does something else to get attention…..she needs to grow up!!!!!

Why wouldn’t she want to have it shaved off since they will probably be doing a hair follicle test for custody of her children.
