Britney Spears ‘freaks out’ schoolchildren

(Britney Spears reportedly showed up at a Beverly Hills elementary school and said that she was there to pick up someone else's children.)

Apparently, creating a frightening environment for her own children isn’t enough for Britney Spears. Now she’s spooking random children in Beverly Hills, reports Usmagazine.com. According to the Web site, a “scantily clad” Britney popped up at neighborhood elementary school, “freaking out” students while telling the grown-ups that she was there to pick up someone else’s kids.

“She was just rambling and confused,” one bystander said of Britney, who appeared just before 3 p.m. dismissal. “She said, ‘I’m here to pick up my kids.’ But then she changed her story and said, ‘They aren’t my kids; I have a new attorney, and I came to pick them up for her.’”

Echoing the thoughts of a nation, the witness added, “All I could think was, ‘Who in their right mind would let her pick up their kids?’”

Britney’s chain-smoking attendance set more than a bad example. As news of the pop star’s presence spread around the school, “some of the kids were freaked out,” a school source told Usmagazine.com. Supervising adults quickly calmed the situation, directing Britney to the school’s back entrance.

Meanwhile, the mystery children Brit said she was there to pick up never materialized. The former Mouseketeer eventually got in her car and left, alone.
