Spears suffers from ADHD - Independent Online

Britney Spears suffers from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

The 'Hold it Against Me' singer has walked off set on a number of occasions while judging auditions on her first of 'The X Factor' in the US, and a source says this is because she can't take medication for her disorder.

The source told RadarOnline: "Britney was diagnosed with ADHD in her teens and used to take medication for it.

"The medication helped her deal with it, however, she can't take it now because it interferes with the other medications she takes for her mental health issues.

"Britney's current team of doctors strictly prohibit her from taking Adderall or Ritalin, which are commonly given to people with ADHD."

Show head Simon Cowell - who appears alongside Britney, Demi Lovato and L.A. Reid on the new series of the show - is said to be fully aware of Britney's condition and supports her taking breaks.

The source continued: "Simon was made fully aware of Britney's medical history before the contract was signed, so this certainly isn't a big surprise that she needs to take breaks during the audition process. "Britney basically has the attention span of a 10-year-old at times. It's not alarming to Simon at all and he is fully supportive of Britney doing whatever she needs to do during filming."

Symptoms of the disorder include overall restlessness, poor sustained attention to tasks and impaired impulse control, meaning it is hard for the 'Piece of Me' hitmaker to stay in one seat and concentrate on performers for any length of time.

The insider added: "Britney's medical team works with her to deal with her disorder without medication and daily vigorous exercise is what often works best for her.

"Her nutrition is closely monitored and so is her caffeine intake, because that can also enhance Britney's inability to focus.

"Of course, it's rather disconcerting for people that see her do it for the first time but it's truly nothing to be alarmed at. In fact, Simon would have been surprised if she hadn't taken breaks during judging last week, this means she is involved and engaged in the process."

Lapdance ... Britney Spears lookalike Lorna Bliss - The Sun

Lorna Bliss, who has splurged £170,000 copying the US star’s look, shocked judges on Britain’s Got Talent last year in a thong and diamanté bodystocking.

And oops, she did it again at this week’s X Factor auditions as her raunchy routine left the judges open-mouthed.

Lorna, this time wearing a white bodystocking, crawled across the judges’ desk and made Louis blush as she WRITHED around on his lap.

Seeing her antics, head judge Gary Barlow, fearing he was next in line for some saucy action, ran off.

But Lorna wouldn’t let him escape and CHASED after him.

Tulisa Contostavlos and guest judge Nicole Scherzinger watched the antics with amazement.

And fans were stunned as the pair ran around London’s O2 Arena.

One tweeted: “Omg. Lorna Bliss. Never laughed so much. Louis got a facefull ;-).”

Frisky Lorna performed a sexually-charged routine to Britney’s song Toxic on BGT.

And she caused controversy when Simon Cowell over-ruled judges Amanda Holden, Michael McIntyre and David Hasselhoff and put her through to the semi-finals of the ITV1 show.

Shocked ... Louis Walsh

Rex

She was later embroiled in a furious row with former X Factor contestant and rival Britney impersonator Kitty Brucknell.

Lorna accused Kitty of stealing boyfriend Danny Lopez â€" a Johnny Depp lookalike.

BRAVE Stevie Clift overcame her fears to audition. She was traumatised after being attacked by a gang who stubbed out cigarettes on her FACE. It left her too afraid to perform for six years.

Britney Spears' Erratic X Factor USA Antics Blamed On Behaviour Disorder - Entertainmentwise

Star not taking medication for disorder she has suffered for since her early teens

Photo: WENN

Britney Spears’ erratic behaviour on her first few weeks of X Factor USA has been blamed on Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder which the star has suffered from since her teens and no longer takes medication for.

According to RadarOnline the ‘Toxic’ star has been leaving the judging table abruptly and arguing with Simon because of the disorder but can do nothing to control it because it would interfere with other medication she is taking.

"Britney was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in her teens and used to take medication for it," a source revealed. "The medication helped her deal with it, however, she can't take it now because it interferes with the other medications she takes for her mental health issues.Britney's current team of doctors strictly prohibit her from taking Adderall or Ritalin, which are commonly given to people with ADHD.”

The behaviour has come as no surprise to Simon Cowell who was fully aware of the condition before signing a whopping $15 million deal for her to join the show. It explains the series of agreements in the deal including that Britters can take a break whenever she wants.

"Simon was made fully aware of Britney's medical history before the contract was signed, so this certainly isn't a big surprise that she needs to take breaks during the audition process,” the source went on, “Britney basically has the attention span of a 10-year-old at times. It's not alarming to Simon at all and he is fully supportive of Britney doing whatever she needs to do during filming."

Though she is still dealing with troubles in her personal life, the star has had a successful star to the X Factor experience and was praised by her fiancé Jason Trawick in a video message last week to celebrate her arrival on the talent show.

Justin Timberlake's First GF Speaks! (PS It's NOT Britney Spears.) - PerezHilton.com

Who knew Justin Timberlake had a ladylove before his Britney Spears chastity-themed romance!?

Shiver-me-Timbers may be headed for matrimonial bliss with Jessica Beil, but we’re sure he’ll never forget his alleged first love, girl group singer Veronica Finn!

Finn has recently revealed all the not-so-juicy details of her and JT’s puppy love partnership, which began in 1997. The Innosense group member expressed:

“I was a girl version of Justin. We hit it off right away… It wasn’t typical dating because we both were touring by then, but when we had time together, we went to the movies, to the park or just hung out at each other’s house. We even vacationed together in the Bahamas.”

Unfortunately for Finn - now 30 - the relationship ended in 1998 due to suspicion of JT’s wandering penis while on the road. (Hey! He was in N*SYNC! N*SYNC!!! What did she expect?! LOL!)

At least she has her giant box of JT mementos and love letters to keep her warm at night!

Britney could be heading for another public meltdown - Zee News

“Doing X Factor may lead her back into meltdown territory,” a magazine has quoted a source as saying.

“She gets extremely nervous and anxious. She’s hard on herself and not very confident,” the source said.

Even positive developments like her engagement to Jason Trawick, 40, can send her over the edge.

“For her, it’s all an input as stress. This is a lot of change at once for Britney. She’s coming undone,” the source said.

To her credit, Spears -- who has sold more than 100 million records worldwide -- has slowly rebuilt her career since her 10-day stay in the UCLA Medical Center psychiatric ward in early 2008. Her two post-crisis albums, 2008’s ‘Circus’ and 2011’s ‘Femme Fatale’, went platinum, and she spent seven months on tour promoting the latter.

“Jason and Britney’s family wouldn’t let her do X Factor if she couldn’t handle it,” an insider countered.

“At first they weren’t going to let her because she couldn’t do live TV -- they didn’t know what she would say. But they went over it with Britney, and they trust her,” the source said.

‘X Factor’ creator and fellow judge Simon Cowell, 52, isn’t worried about Spears’ unpredictability.

“The network is using Christina Aguilera on The Voice as an argument for her,” an industry insider said.

“They’re saying the show needs a bankable pop star who will get viewers watching, whether they think she’s ridiculous of they love her. It’s definitely about tapping into Spears’ fan base.”

Despite her nerves, Spears “wants to do a good job,” a source insists.

“There is always apprehension about something you haven’t done before, but she’s looking forward to proving all the doubters wrong,” the source said.

Britney Spears rep blasts "pathetic" 'X Factor' USA meltdown reports - Digital Spy

A representative for Britney Spears has slammed "pathetic" reports that the star is being driven to a meltdown by her X Factor USA role.

The 'Hold It Against Me' singer was said by US Weekly to be "coming undone" while judging the second season of the contest alongside Simon Cowell, LA Reid and fellow newcomer Demi Lovato.

Spears was accused of getting "extremely nervous and anxious" during auditions, with a source saying: "X Factor may lead her back into meltdown territory."

The insider added: "This is a lot of change at once for Britney. She's coming undone."

However, a member of Spears's team has since told Gossip Cop that there is no truth to US Weekly's article, claiming that the publication still chose to run the report when they were informed of this.

"[It's] a pathetic attempt at creating a story," the representative commented.

The 'Toxic' star came under fire recently when it was claimed that she walked out of her first X Factor auditions session in Texas, though this has been denied by both Spears and Cowell.

Spears is also alleged to have demanded a higher salary than American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez.

BRITNEY Spears is “coming undone” as she takes on her new gig as an X Factor judge.

Lady Gaga challenges Britney Spears - The Spoof (satire)

Thank you for your rating,

Your vote has been counted and is reflected above.

You have already rated this item,

Thank you for your support.

Lady Gaga addressed a crowd of her devote fans and said she was better than Britney Spears because she was six years younger and Spears looked like an old lady.

During a concert Britney Spears retaliated against Gaga by saying that Gaga is not European because she looks Arabic and her ancestors came from the middle east. Spears compared her nose as being authentic European because it was small and pointed up while Gaga's nose was long and pointed down like a Jew.

In a rage Gaga accused Spears of being a lesbian because she kissed Madonna and argues that Spears should not be around small girls because she can't be trusted. Gaga said that Spear's clothing smells like an old person's clothing.

At a concert Lady Gaga invited all of Spear's fans to become her fans because Spears never dated a black man and was a fake wannabe Barbie Doll. "I'm everything to everyone because I'm a girl of the people and I'm for the people." said Gaga.

Gaga or Britney Spears will be 2012's ruling diva. Many observes said it was a toss-up while others predicted that Gaga has a strong chance of taking the lead if she comes out with great songs that have perfect melodies.

During an interview Justin Beiber was asked if he would endorse Gaga or Spears as the reign queen of music in 2012. Beiber said he would endorse Gaga because she looks like a doll and sings great. He argues that Spears is too artificial and she is not part of the rainbow collision.

Paris Hilton also endorsed Lady Gaga, saying she adores shopping in Milan, Italy. "Lesbians are only good for one thing," said Hilton.

A poll was taken to forecast whether Spears will be the reigning diva in 2012. More than 80 percent of the vote went to Gaga. A different poll was taken to see if Justin Beiber's endorsement made any difference. 60 percent of the fans said they voted for Gaga based on what Justin Beiber said. It appears that Gaga is the most popular woman on the planet and other entertainers are supporting her rather than Spears.

The battle between Spears and Gaga will rage on for many years to come, or until a new female, teen sensation comes along and replaces both of them.

Childish Gambino & Beck: Rapper And Alt-Rock Hero Team For 'Silk Pillow' (AUDIO) - Huffington Post

Childish Gambino -- better known as Donald Glover a.k.a Troy from "Community" -- has released a new single on his website, and it includes an appearance from Beck.

Titled "Silk Pillow," the track is your standard bit of Childish Gambino maudlin melodrama -- heavy bass, minor-key piano and raps about girl problems. The difference this time is that Beck raps as well, the first time many have heard the 41-year-old singer do so since his Mellow Gold days.

Per Glover's Twitter account, "Silk Pillow" is the third track off his latest Childish Gambino mixtape.

Listen to the track below.

UPDATE: An earlier version of this story neglected to mention that Beck recently released his own single, "I Just Started Hating Some People Today," via Jack White's Third Man record label.

Britney Spears no doubt has the star quality Simon Cowell was searching for when he went on the lookout for new judges for The X Factor‘s second season. But does the pop star have what it takes to be a judge? Many (including us) are dubious of Brit’s ability to give helpful, pointed and smart criticism to aspiring singers, as Spears hasn’t exactly been all that articulate or in-depth in her own interviews. Giving us a bit of a preview ahead of the show’s Season 2 premiere are four recently surfaced audio clips of the “Criminal” singer interacting with contestants and giving critiques of their performances. And since we abide by the rule “Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged”, we’ve included our own personal critique of her judging ability. Check them out below!

CLIP #1:

BRIT-TIQUE: “I felt like your songs were really great and your voices are magical. When you sing you have a nice soothing sound, and I wish you could wake me up in the morning,” she says. “Singing!” she adds after Simon’s teasing.
OUR CRITIQUE: Brit is entering Paula Abdul nonsense-judging territory with this one. “Really great” and “magical” don’t help anybody. They’re barely words that describe anything, really. And her stilted delivery makes it seem like she’s pulling her comments out of thin air. Secondly, we have to give Britney one giant demerit for speaking in some weird Paris Hilton-y baby voice. It’s fine hearing her sing this way â€" but we refuse to believe this isn’t her attempt at being cute and feminine and totally “on”. (In fact, what happened to that just-as-mysterious deep voice she had during her Femme Fatale promotional cycle?)

CLIP #2:

BRIT-TIQUE: Okay, there’s no real critique here, just Brit fumbling over a contestant’s name and asking about his choice of clothing. Small talk before the audition â€" which we kind of can’t wait to see. Jake sounds like an emo-geek about to prove he’s a heartthrob by performing an Enrique Iglesias song.
OUR CRITIQUE: We’re glad to hear her being friendly and welcoming with the contestants, as that can put them at ease and calm their nerves. Too bad she sounds like a cartoon beauty pageant contestant.

CLIP #3:

BRIT-TIQUE: “It sounded like I was listening to Alvin and The Chipmunks,” says Brit. “I think your voice was too high, sweetie.”
OUR CRITIQUE: A criticism, for sure, but she delivers it too delicately. She doesn’t necessarily need to go for the jugular, but don’t come off like you have no authority, Brit.

CLIP #4:

BRIT-IQUE: After a contestant reportedly disses Demi Lovato‘s vocal ability, Brit comes to her co-judge’s defense. “I want to know who let you on stage,” quips Brit (losing her baby voice for a second). “I feel uncomfortable with you even staring at me.”
OUR CRITIQUE: Confident, unafraid to appear less-than-chipper and standing up for her fellow judge? That’s the Brit we want to see on the show.

What do you think of Britney’s judging so far? Tell us your thoughts in the comments.

More X Factor Critiques From Britney Spears! Jumps To Demi Lovato's Defense ... - PerezHilton.com

Britney Spears is still getting accustomed to her role as judge on the new season of X Factor, but during the latest round of auditions in Austin, it's CLEAR that the pop star is gaining more confidence…because she is truly starting to SHINE in her critiques!

And taking NO BULL SHIZ either, might we add!

Ch-ch-check out some new audio clips of the icon giving her two cents on potential contestants for the reality series…and seriously telling off one in particular who had the nerve to challenge co-judge Demi Lovato (above)!

HOT DAMN! She is NOT messing around!

We LOVE that she's already so fiercely protective of the younger singer, and that she's letting her personality really shine through!

HIGHlarious, adorable, and AUTHENTIC!

All the reasons we fell in love with her in the first place!

Keep it up, gurl! We cannot WAIT to see this all go down when the show premieres!

Britney Spears' 'Blackout' Breaks the 1 Million Mark - PopCrush

Bryan Bedder, Getty Images

Go girl!

On top of completing a hectic week of ‘X Factor‘ auditions (complete with an adorable video message from fiance Jason Trawick), Britney Spears has something else to celebrate. Digital Spy reports that the ‘Toxic’ singer’s 2007 album, ‘Blackout,’ finally sold 1 million copies.

‘Blackout’ hit shelves during some of Spears’ darkest moments, both in her life and her hair color. It was her first release following her breakdown in which she shaved her head and attacked paparazzi with an umbrella. In light of her trauma, Spears’ label released the record with the least amount of fanfare possible as she was keeping a low profile.

The album was Spears’ first to not debut at No. 1, which disappointed fans â€" but not as much as the record’s failure to meet the 1 million mark. Fans launched “Blackout Purchase Week” in July of last year in hopes of reaching the benchmark, but came up short. The album received critical acclaim and launched fan favorite tracks like ‘Gimme More’ and ‘Piece of Me,’ but perhaps due to Spears’ personal problems and the lack of promotion and touring, the album didn’t move as many units as her usual juggernaut hits.

Now that SoundScan confirmed the 1 million sales, it’s up to Spears and her team to apply for RIAA-certified Platinum status. Let’s get on that!
