Britney Spears was arrested for driving under the influence on Wednesday night. Here’s the latest: The “New York Post” claims that cops found an “unknown substance” in her car, and it’s been sent to a lab for testing. Police think she was under the influence of a combination of drugs and alcohol. She was given a blood test, which we also don’t know the results of. Britney was pulled over at around 9:30 p.m. Wednesday night, after police saw her swerving in and out of traffic in her BMW. She was said to be extremely emotional, even crying, during her arrest. (You can hear the 911 dispatcher alerting police here.) Britney’s rep says he hopes this can be, quote, “the first step on a long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney’s life.”
Page Six says Kevin Federline‘s book allegedly caused Britney Spears to spiral. An insider close to Spears says her behavior became erratic after the book’s release. Spears feels exploited by Federline’s memoir and is emotionally impacted. “The truth is, this has been going on for a while. Her behavior has become increasingly erratic in recent months. She goes from being fine to being not. It was the Kevin book that really sent her over the edge, and it’s been downhill from there. It really impacted her emotionally. Spears feels like she gave Kevin everything that he wanted over the years and paid him so much money, but he still exploited her with his memoir. He used her; he wanted to ruin her. And that was a really hard pill to swallow; it absolutely killed her that someone would want to damage her so much.”
Savannah Guthrie returned to the “Today” show yesterday, for the first time since her mother went missing on February 1st. No, she’s not back on the air.

But obviously, there’s no timeline yet. There was also a group prayer led by meteorologist Dylan Dreyer.
Some of Hollywood’s greatest treasures are being stored in Hutchinson, Kansas . . . 600 feet underground . . . in a SALT MINE. The mine is huge, and it also houses a massive museum called Strataca, dedicated to . . . what else . . . salt mining. The constant 68-degree temperature and 45% humidity make it an ideal storage space for paper, film, and other materials. Like the George Clooney Batman suit. You know, the one with the nipples? God forbid we let that thing rot. You can see some of the Hollywood memorabilia on the mine tour, but a lot of it is just locked up in storage. Some of the other items in there include: 1. Historic movies like “Ben-Hur”, “Star Wars”, and old silent films. 2. Every episode of “M*A*S*H*”. 3. The original film negative of “The Wizard of Oz”. There’s about 50 acres worth of stuff that’s just off-limits to the public. There’s also boring stuff like oil and gas company leases, architectural blueprints, secret government documents, and even newspapers announcing the assassination of Abraham Lincoln.

Luke Combs tells Parade Magazine that a New York City jewelry store refused to sell him a Rolex because of the way he looks. “I was wearing camo gym shorts, so I don’t necessarily blame them for doing that. There’s the dance-of-the-watch thing, but I don’t know, so I walk in, and I’m like, ‘Stainless steel Yacht-Master, you got one?’ And they’re like, ‘No, what are you talking about?’ And I’m like, ‘What do you mean? Like, this is the store where you sell that.’” I’m like, I find it hard to believe that a company is spending money for this real estate in New York City by [Madison Square] Garden, and there’s nothing for sale. You’re telling me that’s a thing?”
The National Enquirer says Nicole Kidman is allegedly furious with Keith Urban for pursuing acting after their divorce. A source says, “This is the last thing Nicole ever expected out of Keith.
