"Spears was stopped and handcuffed by the California highway patrol at about 9.28pm local time, as first reported by TMZ and confirmed by Variety. Spears was booked in the early hours of Thursday morning, at about 3.02am, and was released just after 6am."
"Her arrest follows a legal victory earlier this week, when Spears was granted a restraining order against a 51-year-old Louisiana man who had been harassing her since 2013. According to Spears' court filing, the man showed up at her Los Angeles home after making several disturbing social media posts."
"Thirteen years went by with me feeling like a shadow of myself. My father and his associates having control over my body and my money makes me feel sick, she wrote in her bestselling 2023 memoir The Woman in Me."
"In February, it was revealed that Spears sold her rights to her music catalogue in late 2025 in a reported $200m deal. The sale to independent music publisher Primary Wave came after the singer's 13-year conservatorship, which drained her finances and which Spears described as abusive."
Britney Spears was arrested by California Highway Patrol on Wednesday night for driving under the influence in Ventura County. She was booked early Thursday morning and released after 6am. Following her release, Spears deleted her Instagram profile. The arrest comes after a legal victory earlier in the week when Spears obtained a restraining order against a man who had been harassing her since 2013. This is not her first legal incident; in 2007, she faced misdemeanor charges related to a hit-and-run that were later dropped. Recently, Spears sold her music catalogue rights to Primary Wave for approximately $200 million, following the end of her 13-year conservatorship.
