Britney Burnout

You've likely seen all the headlines -- tragically troubled Britney Spears rushed to the hospital and checked in to a psychiatric ward early this morning.

Camera crews and police helicopters were all on the scene last night as an ambulance carrying the singer made its way to UCLA Medical Center, accompanied by a police escort of more than a dozen motorcycle officers.

Now, reports are that the 26-year-old mother of two is currently being held under a 72-hour psychiatric emergency hold, known as a 5150.

It's just the latest in a year of headlines trumpeting Spears' erratic behavior -- and we thought it was bad last year when she shaved her head bald last year. Compared to the other events on her downward spiral, the head-shaving seems tame.

But are you still interested in hearing about the former pop princesses' troubles? Is it a cautionary tale, a train wreck you can't stop watching? Or are you tired of the drama, and wish that in an election year when we're in the middle of the war, we'd find something else to talk about?

Post your comments here, and vote in the instapoll on today's saliving.com homepage. We'll report some of your best reponses.

It's a shame people just can't leave her alone.  The way she is hammered by tabloids, news, videos, photographers would be enough to send me over the edge.  She can probably get better if media would leave her alone...let her figure this out without the constant harrassment and in her face all the time.  If someone took my kids I'd be a wreck and probably doing erractic things because I would want my kids back.  Unfortunately she doesn't know how to handle pressure and her stress level is out of this world.  
I would like to see Brittany make a smart move and get the hell out of California, move to a remote and desolate location (leave the country) just so she can get out of the spot light, have time to think and clear her head and get her thoughts together that she needs to.  She needs time to grow up, heal and try to live a normal life...something she's never had.  
I really really feel sorry for her knowing she can't dodge the media.  
I'd actually like to see WOAI not mention her name ever again...make a start somewhere!  WHO CARES WHAT SHE'S DONE AGAIN OR GOING TO DO.  Let the girl live her life without harrassment.

Sorry to say WOAI but you all are contributing to this girls life being Burned out because you all seem to make it News here in this State, By the way we are TEXAS not California, and I have to say The reason why millions do not care about this girl is because for 1. She is a celebrity 2. She likes the party life 3. She makes good fodder 4. Her public life is all over the Net like the wildfires that burned in California a couple of months ago! No one cares about what happens to her except her die hard fans but heck there is her own official website where they can go log-in and check to see what is going on with her or watch TMZ, Access Hollywood, The Insider, Entertainment Tonight, or MTV for all the latest "Britney WATCH" instead of you all posting junk that is from Hollywood California you all should Focus on Issues that are bigger than her problems in our STATE, like Child Abuse, Domestic Violence Statistics, The Issues of Immigration from the Border, The State's Toll Road Issues you know things that actually effect us all not only in San Antonio but throughout the STATE!!!

It's interesting how I am completely sick of it, yet drawn to the strange stories like a magnet.
And I'm not a die hard fan.... I don't think I could name even one album.

When are we going to get it right in this country? These are not credible individuals. They offer nothing to better our society. The media is to blame for continuously bringing these sick, sad, losers into our homes every night. Whats worse, most people watch this ***. Come on America, get a life!
