Britney Spears… Now a Pill Poppin’ Fool

Allie @ Gone Hollywood | Friday, December 8, 2006

Britney Spears, who has gone off the deep end this week, is now alleged to be a drug user. Will the madness never end?

In Touch Weekly is reporting that Spears paid a visit to the restroom of a Hollywood restaurant, where the pop star plopped her pursed down on the counter and in front of several witnesses, opened her bag to reveal a bounty of pills inside.

“It looked like a pharmacy in there - I have never seen so many pills,” a witness said. “There was a bottle of Paxil (an antidepressant) and a bottle of Xanax (for anxiety) that she took out and put on the counter.”

The media have been all over Spears this week, so much so that on her own website she fired back.

“Every move I make at this point has been magnified more than I expected, and I probably did take my new found freedom a bit too far,” Spears writes. “Anyway, thank God for Victoria Secrets’ new underwear line! I look forward to a new year, new music and a new me.”
