Britney
Spears Leaves Rehab
After A
Day
Britney
Spears
has checked out of rehab
after just one day for
the second time in a
week, according to US
reports.
The
shaven-headed singer
left a treatment centre
in Malibu, California,
on Wednesday.
The
previous day her manager
Larry Rudolph said
Britney Spears had
checked into rehab
voluntarily.
She
reportedly spent just 24
hours in a facility in
Antigua last week before
shaving her head in
front of
onlookers.
Rudolph
had asked for privacy
while she underwent this
latest round of
treatment.
A
spokesman for the public
relations agency that
handles the Malibu
treatment centre said he
had no comment and would
not confirm that she had
been there or that she
had left.
Since
splitting with husband
Kevin Federline last
year, Britney Spears has
been making headlines
with her partying
lifestyle.
On
Tuesday, People's
website quoted a
statement by Spears'
management which said:
"Britney Spears has
voluntarily checked
herself into an
undisclosed rehab
facility
today."
Britney
Spears had her drastic
haircut at Esther's Hair
Studio in Tarzana, west
of Los Angeles, on
Friday, but was later
seen wearing a blonde
wig.
The
salon has set up a
website to auction the
hair for more than $1m
(£512,500).
A
spokeswoman for the
website said they had
already received a
number of
bids.
"We
have received many
offers and we are
currently in the process
of separating the real
ones from the bogus
ones," she
said.
The
website, which offers
bidders an "opportunity
of a lifetime", says a
portion of the proceeds
will be donated to
various unnamed
charities.
As
well as the hair - which
is pictured on the
website - the winning
bidder will also get the
hair clippers Spears
used, a blue lighter she
left at the salon and
the can of Red Bull she
was drinking at the
time.
A
lawyer for estranged
husband Kevin Federline
earlier confirmed that
Spears and Federline
would continue to share
custody of 5-month-old
Jayden James and
17-month-old Sean
Preston this month,
following terms of a
January custody
agreement.
