The Pop Star Reports “All Is Well”

“My situation is unique, but I promise I’m doing what’s best at this moment,” Britney said. “You may not know this about me, but I am strong, and stand up for what I want! Your love and dedication is amazing, but what I need right now is a little bit of privacy to deal with all the hard things that life is throwing my way. If you could do that, I would be forever grateful. Love you.”

In early April, fans protested in L.A. amid rumors Britney was being held involuntarily in a mental health facility. Jamie Lynn Spears, Britney’s younger sister, said there was no truth to the rumor, and that Britney was taking time off after her father suffered serious health problems earlier this year.
