Britney Spears, who is believed to suffer from bipolar disorder, may not be able to eat one of her favorite foods, ice cream, because it could supposedly worsen her disorder.

Britney‘s parents have been urged by none other than PETA (the animal rights group) to keep her away from dairy products.

PETA president Ingrid Newkirk wrote to Jamie and Lynne Spears: “We have heard that Britney asked for ice-cream while she was in the hospital. There could, in fact, be a connection between her diet and her mental-health problems.

Numerous reports indicate that in bipolar patients who have hidden dairy sensitivities (a fairly common condition), the disorder can worsen if the patient consumes dairy products.” [FemaleFirst]

PETA also claims that Britney should stop eating meat because there is medical research that shows a link between eating meat and the development of mental illness schizophrenia.

As Britney Spears‘ father Jamie was appointed to temporary control her belongings, he confiscated some of her stuff, including her famous pink wig, in an attempt to clean up her act.

Britney‘s ex-manager Sam Lutfi said that when Britney put on that wig, she turned into a completely different (and crazy) person:

“In the depressive episodes, it’s all crying,” Lutfi tells Us. “But in the manic episode, there’s very little crying or sympathy or compassion. She becomes another person. She becomes somebody that just doesn’t care about anybody or anything.”

“The British accent is part of the mania,” he adds. “She’ll stick to the British accent because she becomes comfortable with it… But you know, when the pink wig comes on, it’s getting bad.” [Us Weekly]

Britney Spears checked herself into UCLA for mental evaluation this morning. She supposedly told doctors that she’s on Adderall and has been taking ten laxatives a day.

Our sources say Britney said she was on Adderall, a stimulant used to treat Attention Deficit Disorder, and was taking up to ten laxatives a day. [TMZ]

When she was admitted, Britney accused her mom of “sleeping with my boyfriend”. She was also hurling profanities at her parents and staff.

This is so crazy!

Britney Spears is on the cover of Blender magazine‘s March 2008 issue… Oh wait, that’s not Britney Spears (it’s only her head photoshopped on a different body)!

The magazine used a composite photo for the cover. They say it’s a fake and that “sadly, it is not her body”. (They’re basically saying that they want Britney to be on their cover so that the magazine will sell, but they think she doesn’t look good enough to be on their cover.)

You can read a very long article about Britney‘s troubles (called “The Road to Ruin”) on the Blender website.

Here are some Britney Spears candid pictures heading to 24 Hour Fitness at 1:30 AM yesterday morning for a two-hour workout.

She has clearly lost weight lately, but one can never be sure what could be the cause: her dancing sessions? Her love life with new boyfriend Adnan Ghalib? Or just her general manic lifestyle…?
