Brit Brit Becomes a Bitish British

We're guessing that Britney Spears makes one interesting hospital guest. Sure, there's the drama, the paparazzi, the screaming and crying, the demands for Frappuccino in her IV, but there are also upsides. First, those hospital gowns contain 23% more fabric than a typical Spears ensemble, and second, she uses a kicky British accent to lighten the mood. Us Weekly says:

Entertainment Tonight is reporting that Britney Spears spoke with a British accent during her short stay at L.A.’s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center last Friday.

It isn’t the first time she changed her voice. On December 17, she spoke in the same accent while chatting with photographers outside the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills.

What does it mean?

“She’s having identity issues,” NYC-based psychotherapist Dr. Robi Ludwig tells Usmagazine.com of the pop star, who recently lost custody of her children.

“What it definitely says is she doesn’t really like being where she’s at — there’s probably a part of her that wants to escape who she is really is,” Ludwig says, adding that Spears is “in an adolescent mode of thinking ... [she’s] trying on different personas to see what feels good and works for her."

What exactly would a Britney Spears British accent sound like? Does she just replace all her y'alls with guv'nors? Or is her normal constant muttering of "Buckies, Cheetos, Chalupa, Red Bull" replaced with "pip pip, cheerio, take away, loo, lift" and any other Britishism she may have picked up on Are You Being Served?

And in other Britney news, that (possibly married) paparazzo she's been hanging out with isn't just in it to get really awesome fashion tips and late-night manicures. He apparently took some nudie pics of Brit he's trying to sell to the weeklies. That was about as hard to predict as the ending to 1 Night in Paris.
