BRITNEY SPEARS ENTERS MENTAL HEALTH FACILITY


Shortly after Britney Spears wrote on Instagram that she needed to take "a little 'me time'" - the singer's first social media post in nearly three months - news emerged that Spears recently entered a mental health facility. According to the report by TMZ and confirmed by Variety, the continued health problems faced by her father Jamie Spears has taken its toll on Britney, who was suffering from emotional distress. In January, Spears postponed her Las Vegas residency following her father's life-threatening ordeal; the singer revealed in a statement that two months earlier, Jamie's colon "spontaneously ruptured," resulting in emergency surgery and a 28-day hospital stay. A source told People on April 3, "Her dad being sick has taken a toll on her. He nearly died and actually had another surgery a few weeks ago. He's not doing well. They're so close and it has been a lot. There is nothing dramatic going on with her - she just realized she needs to make sure to take time to care for herself." TMZ reported she will stay in the facility for 30 days.

We wish her well . . . . .
