Britney Spears doesn’t mind people knowing she’s a public figure. The pop singer who was arrested following a traffic stop late on Wednesday evening is facing media scrutiny after a few hours behind bars. She was booked allegedly for driving under the influence (DUI).
Britney is reportedly telling people her blood alcohol level was at 0.06, which is below the 0.08 limit in California. After being taken into custody, she had to provide information, including her physical description. Under occupation on the jail booking sheet, she wrote “celebrity” rather than singer.
Britney Spears was reportedly questioned by police for nine hours
It’s been anything but a memorable end to the work week for Britney Spears. The pop star was said to be driving erratically, leading to her being pulled over. In addition to the blood test administered to her in the hospital, she was allegedly grilled by police for nine hours.
That may explain why she was said to be crying during the booking process. A longtime friend of hers, Sean Phillips, has spoken up in her defense. He calls the alleged incident completely “out of character” for her. Sean says he’s known her for 20 years and is vowing to help her through this difficult time. He adds that they briefly texted just before she was put in jail. Sean did say that he’s confident she will be ok.
As she transitions through this, Britney’s kids will reportedly be with her, while her loved ones will reportedly come up with a plan to help. The singer is coming off a difficult 2025. Her ex-husband Kevin Federline blasted her in a tell-all book. Britney has called the book hateful.
Prior to her arrest, Britney had reportedly called 9-1-1. Her former husband, Sam Asghari, has called this week’s incident a “mistake” but says everyone is entitled to privacy.
