Britney's Disastrous Photo Shoot

Britney SpearsTMZ has learned that Britney's self-arranged photo shoot and interview with OK! Magazine was a complete disaster. We're told that the photos are so bad, execs at the magazine are, at this moment, trying to decide whether to report what actually happened -- or sanitize the truth to protect the pop train wreck.

According to multiple sources, Britney's behavior during the interview was "nothing less than a meltdown." She was, according to our sources, "completely out of it" during the shoot. The photos are "so bad" we've learned, that to publish them could "kill her career." Apparently, Brit Brit's eyes rolled back in her head at one point, causing her to look half dead. Her mood, we're told, was extremely erratic. She took frequent bathroom breaks our source says, and each time she returned her mood would change. She was also completely paranoid during the entire interview, fearing at one point the ceiling was about to cave in on her. Out of control y'all!

We've also learned that Brit had some issues with hygiene on the set as well. At one point, Britney ordered up some fried chicken to munch on. We're told after she chowed down, she wiped her hands on a several thousand dollar Gucci dress that she was wearing for the shoot, staining it with grease. Yuck! One of her dogs also needed some assistance in the housebreaking department. Our on-set spy says that the dog pooped all over the floor, and Brit used (what else?) -- a Chanel dress to clean it up! How trashtastic!

UPDATE (8:33 AM PT): In a surprising move, OK! Magazine says they're going to show Britney as she really was on the day of her disastrous photo shoot -- the good, the bad and the unbelievably ugly!

In an exclusive statement to TMZ, OK! Editor-in-Chief Sarah Ivens said, "OK! Magazine spent a heartbreaking day with Britney Spears and witnessed first-hand an emotional cry for help that will leave you shocked and sad. This week, on newsstands Friday, the truth will be told."

541. What a sad situation! Let's try for one moment, not to pass judgment on Britney. Britney is crying out for help. She is spiritually and emotionally drained. Let's hope she can get the help she needs before it's too late. I pray this isn't another Anna Nicole situation.

543. Britney - Lindsay Lohan...too young, too much time on their hands...too much money. These girls should be banned from the business, maybe then the next new comer will think twice about their behavior. There are so many young people out there who would love the chance these girls had. If the papers, magazines and people with the power to control careers would cut them off maybe and only maybe they would straighten themselves out. They have been given all this fabulous opportunity, only to kill it for themselves. I would rather hear about the good people in the business not these useless, untalented people.

545. Give it up Britney! Take your money, retire, making sure that you keep your show biz connections (or as many as you can). You can ALWAYS make a comeback after a few years. The critics will love you, you'll be hailed as being more mature and deep due to your "life experiences," and although you may not be as big as you once were, the Hollywood publicists that are now laughing at you in the media will be the same ones hailing you when you make your comeback. That's showbiz.

546. eveyone has a breaking point , a bottom, lets hope this is hers, so she can get the help she needs. Family , friends , or even money cannot stop someone who has decided the rest of the world is responsible for them, for thier happiness and well being. This woman sounds like she is in serious trouble, and despite the fact that she is a spoiled celeb, she deserves our compassion. Drug addiction is a disease,and so is mental illness, we would not put anyone with cancer up to look at like we do these sick people

547. to say that britney has no talent is not true. she may not be the best singer but she is a great dancer and performer. r u all saying that the execs at mickey mouse club were wrong and what about 4 consecutive number 1 albums? ive never bought one nor am i a big fan of britney but there is some talent. there are many young people who have wild and crazy behavior but are not under the microscope. i know i was wild and crazy and did way stupider thing than brit or lohan

548. THE ONLY way to treat BRITNEY LINDSAY, PARIS,AND NICOLE is to lock them up,,in the same cell, no servants, no room service, but worst,, no makeup, no mirrors ,no cell phones,no visitors ,, if that doesnt work,,im out of ideas..

552. TMZ... how many days are you guys going to milk this one? I'm so sick of you guys playing off the same stuff every day. This girl is toast anyway... she is her own worst enemy. Can't you use your powers for good?

553.

Like Lindsay, Britney hasn't hit rock bottom. And so true about both of them: they need professional psychological help neither of them think they need.

Bless you two on your journey.

Denial can be deadly.

554. I am not a Britney fan, never have been, never will be...unless she grows up and gains alot of class! Never thought I would be a fan of K-Fed however he has handled himself with some class. Sad part, Britney doesn't really understand that she is missing the most important years of her kids life's!

My prayers are with Britney, however for now I think their father show raise those adorable boys!

P.S. Make peace with your Mom --- one day she will be gone and you won't have anyone to "kick" around!

555. People are so freaking judgemental. I believe that you're not suppose to be. Not saying that I haven't ever judged anybody in my life, because it would be a flat out lie. But if she is heading for breakdown, why bash her. I couldn't imagine having ever little thing I do being filmed or photographed. We all pretty much would be caught doing something that someone else thought wasn't right. If I was her, I wouldn't take my kids out much either, because of the hounds of hell chasing me trying to get a picture of me and my kids. Only to have people say, OMG, she isn't holding that baby right, I can't believe that she is holding a baby with a drink in her hand!!! The thing that takes the cake, is the terrible things people say about her kids!!! I hope Britney can find her place in life and be a wonderful mother. Also you have to remember, believe nothing you read and believe half of what you see. I can't remember who sad that, but I strongly believe it to be true!!! Peace!!!!!
