The Year in Britney

NOVEMBER 2008

High Point: A fresh-faced, flowing-locked Britney hit the stage with Madonna at the Los Angeles stop of her Sticky & Sweet tour, bringing to life the videotaped bit she filmed as part of the Big M's "Human Nature" interlude. The crowd cheered as the frozen-faced ... more

Low Point: For the first time since she lost custody, Britney was allowed to take her sons out of state, winging with them from Los Angeles to her hometown of Kentwood, La., shortly after her appearance with Madonna. But the reunion at the clan's Serenity mansion was interrupted when Jayden had to be rushed to the hospital after suffering an allergic reaction to "something he ingested," according to a statement. Thankfully, he was soon back in the pink.

Low Point, Part 2: Spears is supposedly still hung up on her shutterbug ex Adnan Ghalib. "Ideally, they'd like to be together," a source told Us Weekly, while TMZ reported that Britney had been nagging her string-pulling dad Jamie for months to allow her to see Adnan, but he wisely refused.

High/Low Point: Britney's MTV documentary "For the Record" debuted on Nov. 30, offering a heavily filtered window into her current state of mind. "Even when you go to jail you know there's the time when you're gonna get out," she says of her carefully controlled life. "But in this situation it's never-ending. It's just like 'Groundhog Day' every day." She admits she's "sad," and sighs that her life has "no excitement" and "no passion." "I think it's too in control," Spears tearfully revealed. "If I wasn't under the restraints I'm under, I'd feel so liberated. When I tell them the way I feel, it's like they hear but they're really not listening." She also deflected responsibility for much of the craziness of the previous year, blaming it on the paparazzi and the "bad people" she let into her life. "I'm a smart person," she says. "What the hell was I thinking?" As for her infamous noggin buzzing, she pronounced, "I was going through so much artificial stuff with my kids and Kevin at the time. He'd just left me and I was devastated ... People shave their heads all the time."
