Disciplined Britney Spears Adheres to Strict, Daily Meltdown Schedule

July 30, 2007

Oops, she did it again. Britney Spears -- who seems to have given up singing to become a test case in a sociology experiment on self-destruction -- is once again making headlines with her erratic behaviour. Just hours after her disastrous photo shoot with OK! magazine, the walking trainwreck/baby neglector arrived on the set of her self-funded new music video for the single "Get Back," where she proceeded to have another meltdown, reports the New York Daily News.

The "singer," wearing ripped fishnets stockings, a cropped leather vest and a ratty, jet-black weave, reportedly angered the 100-person crew by taking frequent bathroom breaks and leaving the set twice for hour-long massages. But the shoot really ran off the rails when Spears attempted to film a striptease (which is odd, considering that taking her clothes off seems to be the only thing left she's good at).

"She had a problem with the extras being about when she did the pole dance," a witness said. "She was shy or embarrassed or something and she really started struggling with the whole thing.

"You could see she was getting a bit wobbly but no one expected her to throw a complete fit," the source adds. "Suddenly, she was in floods of tears and stormed off set. She eventually came back but was sobbing hysterically."

According to the Daily News, the director ended the shoot early and sent everyone home. If, as expected, the footage turns out to be totally unusable, we suggest the director just scrap together paparazzi video of a bald Spears going totally ape-shit on an SUV with an umbrella. Sure, it's a bit dated, but with that overplayed Rihanna song making us want to poke our eyes out with a plastic folk, MTV is in the market for a new umbrella-themed vid.
