Run for your lives! It's MechaBritney!

Ever since Britney's dad basically took over her life, things just haven't been the same. She's taking her meds, not driving like a maniac, and shunning all-nighters. I feel like there's a huge void in my life. At least I'm not the only one hurting. Newspapers and magazines are grasping at straws right now for some good Britney content. Check out this scandalous story from the New York Daily News.

Britney Spears keeps coming up with weird requests for her favorite L.A. boutiques. She flummoxed staff at the Betsey Johnson on Melrose Ave. this month by turning up with a Dolce & Gabbana dress she wanted the store to copy - in all white - to be ready by that evening. According to a witness, "the staff explained that they didn't have a dressmaker on call who could do it in time." Never mind that the frock she wanted copied wasn't even their label.

"The only thing she wanted to buy in the store was the yellow wig on a mannequin in the window," laughs the source. "The manager eventually agreed to offer it to her for $100." (Source)

*Gasp* A yellow wig. Oh please stop the insanity before someone gets hurt.

NOTE: I'll give her the benefit of the doubt on the dress thing -- "British" Britney wouldn't be caught dead wearing the same outfit as "American" Britney . . . dammit . . . see what I'm saying -- even the multiple personality jokes just aren't as funny anymore . . . *Paging Sam Lutfi*
