Poor thing thought she would be able to escape under the radar. I think she forgets sometimes that she's Britney Spears. Anyway, check out a few long range shots of Britney exiting her plane in Costa Rica shielded by an umbrella. Britney will be vacationing at Mel Gibson's home in Esterones de Guanacaste for several days. For more on her trip, check out THIS ARTICLE I posted earlier this afternoon. May 15, 2008.

Just because Britney is away, doesn't mean the drama is. According to a newly released court document from the Superior Court of California after a hearing on May 13th, Britney must continue her father's allowance of $10,000 a month as co-conservator until otherwise stated. Britney's lawyers filed a "Petition for Order Allowing and Authorizing Payment of Replacement Compensation to [Britney's father and co-conservator] JAMES P. SPEARS."
"The court granted the petition, and also temporarily granted a request to seal supporting documents related to the petition, pending another hearing on May 29. No further details were available," according to etonline.com.
This is ontop of the $375,000 Britney owes to Mark Vincent Kaplan [Kevin Federline's custody lawyer], the $685,985.22 she owes to Trope & Trope [Britney's first legal representation], the $10,000 a week til' July 31st Sam Ingham [court-appointed lawyer] gets, the $100,000 Andrew Wallet [other co-conservator] gets, the $175,000 the Luce Forward law firm gets, the $22,500 Clark Byam [second attorney] gets, and the $75,000 Stacy Phillips [the lawyer representing Britney in the family law case] gets, according to this court document.
Britney landed at the airport Juan Santamaria in San Jose, Costa Rica this afternoon at around 3:20 pm (Costa Rica time) after her departure from L.A. this morning around 9am a source reveals to BreatheHeavy.com. Dressed in white and blue, Britney was seen exiting the private jet shielded with a large umbrella from curious on-lookers. Britney, her father Jamie, and the Gibsons are expected to travel northwest to Mel's home in Esterones de Guanacaste where Britney will be residing.
UPDATE: Britney arrived in good spirits, although a bit tired because of the long flight. An immigration officer went inside the plane to have several documents filled out. An hour later Britney took another small private plane to Guanacaste. She will reportedly be vacationing there for several days.
Jamie Lynn is seen here out and about in Kentwood, Louisiana this afternoon with her fiance Casey Aldridge. Damn Jamie Lynn's belly is ginormous. JL is expected to give birth to a baby girl at the end of June. I'm happy for her; she's going to be a good mama.
I still can't believe she's freakin pregnant though. Jamie Lynn is pregnant. Jamie Lynn is pregnant. Jamie Lynn is pregnant. Jamie Lynn is pregnant.
Britney And Mel Gibson Vacation Together In Costa Rica
Britney Spears and Mel Gibson are headed to Costa Rica where they will vacation with the singer's father and Gibson's wife, a source tells PEOPLE.
"They're just going away for a few days to relax," says a source.
The group plan to stay at Gibson's Costa Rican home. They will be back early next week.
The unlikely pair were first spotted together back in mid-March when they dined at Russian restaurant Romanov in Studio City. However, it wasn't their first meeting. Gibson and Spears and their families met a number of times after the pop star was hospitalized in February, a different source told PEOPLE at the time.
"Mel and his wife Robin clearly saw a woman in crisis and wanted to extend themselves in any way possible," the source said.
Gibson and Spears used to be neighbors when the singer previously lived in Malibu. "There are no expectations, there is no agenda," the source added. "It's simply an act of human kindness - one neighbor reaching out to the other."
"The Insider" breaks news that BRITNEY SPEARS and MEL GIBSON are currently en route to Costa Rica on vacation together! Britney arrived on time, about 5 minutes after Mel, and the plane departed at 9:05 a.m.
We spotted them leaving on a private plane to the Central American state early this morning. Sources tell us that Mel is taking Britney and her father JAMIE for a mini-vacation. We've learned they will be guests at Mel's home in Costa Rica.
According to the terms of her custody Britney's children cannot leave the country without special approval. There is no confirmation as to whether she sought approval and we're told they are not joining her on the trip.
While the pop star and the actor may appear to be an unlikely duo, they used to live in the same Malibu community and were spotted having dinner together at Studio City's Romanov restaurant in March.
Forget those rumors of Britney Spears and Kevin Federline getting back together!
The recovering pop star is off and away for a vacation with none other than Mel Gibson, Entertainment Tonight reports.
The two jetted off at 9:05 a.m. this morning to Costa Rica, where Mel has a vacation home. It is believed Brit’s father and co-conservator of her estate, Jamie, has joined them for the trip.
Not along for the ride? Her sons Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1, as Britney and K-Fed’s custody arrangement stipulates the pop star cannot leave the country without court approval.
While this pairing is odd, it certainly isn’t the first time Brit and Mel have convened. Malibu neighbors, the two dined at Romanov restaurant back in March, where Mel, 52, was reported to have dispensed some pearls of wisdom on how to deal with negative press to the 26-year-old.
"He understands what she's going through," a source told OK!. "And he certainly has advice on how to not let it destroy your life."
Britney Spears, her father Jamie and actor Mel Gibson boarded a private plane bound for Costa Rica at 9:05 this morning, Entertainment Tonight reported.
Gibson – who has helped people with sobriety issues – is hosting them at his 400-acre ranch in Central America, according to ET.
Spears' children Sean Preston and Jayden James won't be joining their mom. According to the the terms of her custody agreement, Spears' boys can't leave the country without special approval.
This is not the pop star's first encounter with the Braveheart actor. The unlikely pals dined at Romanov Russian restaurant & Lounge in Studio City, CA in March.
Britney Spears has found herself a rather unorthodox traveling companion. So to speak.
E! News has confirmed the singer joined Mel Gibson aboard a private jet this morning, bound for Costa Rica. The unlikely, but not unprecedented, duo was joined on their trip by Spears' father, Jamie, and Gibson's wife, Robyn. Though the exact nature of the trip is not yet known, it appears to be nothing more than a friendly weekend getaway, with a source telling E! News the group departed from Los Angeles with the intention of hanging out at Gibson's Costa Rica property "for a couple days."
The source also told E! News the showbiz pair's budding relationship has been nurtured of late by attorney Blair Berk, who repped Gibson in his infamous DUI arrest and who is currently representing Spears' parents in their various legal entanglements. More recently, Gibson has been described as "mentoring" the troubled pop star and that the duo has discussed "a getaway" of some sort. The surprising pair first raised eyebrows last March, when they, along with a group of mutual friends, were spotted dining together at Studio City eatery Romanov. At the time, sources close to both stars denied any professional collaboration, insisting instead that their meeting was "all about sobriety" and that the Gibson clan was simply looking to help the young star.
Judging by her progress made in the past few months, it's a job well done.
Britney is seen here heading into the Conway recording studios tonight in Hollywood. She looks ummm... nice. Hope everything is ok =/ May 14, 2008. Click the picture below to access the entire set.
As I predicted, a mag gobbled up the pregnant story and featured it on their cover this week. In Touch Weekly's headline this week: "Britney's got a BUMP."
Heck yeah she does.
"What you gon' do with all that junk? All that junk inside that trunk? I'ma get, get, get, get, you drunk, Get you love drunk off my bump. What you gon' do with all that ass? All that ass inside them jeans? I'm a make, make, make, make you scream Make you scream, make you scream. Cos of my bump (ha), my bump, my bump, my bump (what). My bump, my bump, my bump (ha), my lovely lady bumps (Check it out)"
Good news part 1: Britney worked her butt off in the gym today. Good news part 2: Britney headed back into the recording studio tonight. This must be like the 26th time she's been at the recording studio in the last 2 months. There's got to be at least 10 songs near finished. Oh how I long for new music. It's my crack. Just gotta have my fix. ASDFAsdfij43345 mmm. May 13, 2008. Click to stream.
Tabloid Wednesdays have arrived! OK! has become so tame lately. Which is a good thing since Brit is behaving (minus her multiple fender benders & pregnancy hoopla). This week's OK headline: "Brit's best mom's day ever!" Wonder which insider is callin up the tabs and dishin the dirt. Naw mean?
Let's see... Monday is deadline, Tuesday is printing, Wednesday is shipping, and Thursday they're stocked. Wonder how many other tabs bought the "preggo" pics for the juicy goss.
Check out Britney heading into Bally's in Culver City for her daily workout this afternoon after her little fender bender. A very suspicious spot to hold that over-sized bag if you know what I mean ;) May 13, 2008.
May 13 - Getting Sean & Jayden's Toys From Storage Unit
A good sign! Brett, Britney's assistant, and Brit's bodyguard are seen here taking some of Sean & Jayden's play toys out of a storage unit and loading them into her SUV. A sign of more visitation and possibly overnights soon? We'll have to wait and see. Cool to see her doing some of the work too. She's never seemed like the "Assistant #8 get my coffee, bitch!" kind of girl. "Assistant #8, get my kid's toys, bitch!" May 13, 2008. Click to stream.
While mommy was out playing bumper cars on the street today, little Seanny was seen playing bumper cars at My Gym! Ok ok I don't actually know if he played bumper cars... but he does have a lot of experience behind the wagon. Anyway, check out a vid of Sean being picked up by daddy the nanny & bodyguard this morning after his play time. I actually think it's a good idea the boys get some play time separately. Will help them be more independent, ya dig? Prob the nanny's idea. I want to take her out to lunch. May 13, 2008. Click to stream.
Britney Spears just rear-ended a car on Sunset Blvd. in Beverly Hills.
Brit hit a red Ford Explorer, driven by a lady. No injuries, as far as we know -- Britney didn't even get out of the car. Her bodyguard got out and talked to the other woman.
The red Explorer Brit hit is now following her back to Britney's home.
Britney was stopped at a light and, for some reason, accelerated when the light was still red, hitting the Explorer stopped in front of her. No visible damage.
The pop princess was behind the wheel her white Mercedes SL down Sunset around 2:10 PM this afternoon. Brit wa when she rear-ended a red Ford Explorer driven by a Latina woman in her 30s. Luckily, neither Britney nor the other driver (or, for that matter, Britney's bodyguard, who had been riding shotgun in her Mercedes) was injured, although Brit's car sustained some damage to the front. Britney stayed in her car during the accident while her bodyguard hashed out the details with the other driver, who then followed Britney's Mercedes back to the Summit. After no more than 15 minutes, the driver emerged from the house. Britney (who was seen texting on her phone earlier) was in the right lane on Sunset, behind the maroon Ford Explorer, when the cars in the left hand lane got a green light to turn left on Hillcrest. Britney saw the cars in the left lane accelerating in her peripheral vision, and thought she had a green light as well. That's when the minor incident occured. Although both cars sustained very minor damage, luckily there don't seem to be any injuries. Click the picture below to access the entire set.
Last night's "How I Met Your Mother" episode came out with a rating of 5.5/9 according to zap2it.com, averaging out to about 9 million viewers in total. While it's a million viewers lower than her first appearance with a 6.3/10 rating, it's still a million viewers higher than that show's average ratings, and pulled in an extra 600,000 viewers from last week's episode. By no means a flop.
"What does this all mean Jordan?" Well I'm glad you asked! It means Britney's still got it, and can still pull in an impressive sized audience.
Take notes FHM! According to FoxNews.com, Britney has officially landed a spot on Maxim's 2008 Hot 100 this year, coming in at number 19. "Britney Spears and her reformation, the songstress has successfully strutted her way back onto the Top 20 of Maxim magazine’s Hot 100 list."
"...[Britney] still oozes genuine sexiness, and if anyone can make a comeback, it's her," a Maxim editor said.
Britney didn't make the cut last year at all. And I must agree, healing your body and mind IS really sexy. Congrats Brit! Let's get ya #1 for 2009.
