Britney Spears‘ family and friends reportedly staged an intervention this week due to concerns ‘she would die’ over escalating substance abuse and mental health issues.
TMZ reports those close to the 41-year-old singer – who sparked concern after a ‘manic’ restaurant episode last month – became alarmed by her ‘erratic, volatile’ behavior, due to taking medications that ‘hype her up’ and cause her to ‘fly off the handle’ regularly.
They claim the pop icon has not been taking medication that would stabilize her moods – leading them to rent a house in the LA for ‘several months’ without Britney’s knowledge for an intervention. One source told the publication: ‘I’m afraid she’s gonna die.’
It was planned to take Britney to the house where her husband Sam Asghari, 28, her manager, doctors and an interventionist would be waiting on Tuesday – with Britney set to receive medical treatment and psychological counseling for two months.
However, the singer is said to have become ‘somewhat aware’ of the plan and the intervention was scrapped.

Britney is said to have agreed to meet with a doctor on Wednesday, which ‘went well.’
DailyMail.com has contacted Britney Spears’ representatives for comment.
The latest concerns come after the police were called to perform a welfare check on the pop diva last month. Concerned fans had contacted authorities to check on her well-being when she shut down her Instagram page.
Spears recently said she’s doing fine after the welfare check: ‘I’m not having a breakdown … I am who I am and moving forward in my life, I have never felt better!!!’ the Grammy-winning singer said Sunday in a post on the account, which she has since reinstated.
The Till The World Ends performer said of the social media account, ‘Yes I took my Instagram down and now it’s backup because I can!!!’
Spears said she’s ‘not this girl or that girl’ but rather River Red, having changed her name, and is happily freed from the constraints of the conservatorship her father presided over until 2021.
‘Being able to volumize my voice in a world where I lost my rights … for 15 years … gives me an opportunity to succeed !!!’ the Oops!… I Did It Again vocalist said.
She said she’s ‘still learning this no rules thing’ and feels ‘younger and in awe’ in her life.

‘Unfortunately I’m boring as hell and drink hot chocolate at night!!!’ she said. ‘I’ve waited nearly 15 years to drink alcohol only to realize I hate it!!! It makes me sad and I feel bloated, although food tastes better.’
The singer spoke out after a source exclusively told DailyMail.com Friday that Spears is ‘staying positive’ after a police welfare check left her ‘freaked out’ last week.
She’s doing okay,’ a source close to Spears tells DailyMail.com.
‘She’s navigating this new life, finishing her book. It’s a process but [she’s] getting there.’
‘The fans calling the cops freaked her out for sure but she’s staying positive.’
Britney hit back after the police visit in a Twitter post and stressed that police never ‘entered’ her house and stayed at her gate – but said the situation went ‘a little too far.’
Back on Instagram: The singer was back to posting on her Instagram, after reinstating her account following a recent welfare check stemming from worried fans contacting the authorities due to her deleted page
Fans of the singer have lately expressed even more concern than usual after she was seen apparently having a ‘manic’ meltdown at a restaurant last month with her husband.
‘As everyone knows the police were called to my home based on some prank phone calls,’ she began. ‘I love and adore my fans this time things went a little too far and my privacy was invaded.’
She clarified: ‘The police never entered my home,’ and they apparently left shortly after arriving at her gate after finding ‘no issue.’
But the run-in with law enforcement over the ‘prank phone calls’ still left her feeling accosted.
‘This felt like I was being gaslit and bullied once the incident made it to the news and being portrayed once again in a poor and unfair light by the media,’ she continued.
Spears seemed to urge her fans to take a more distanced, respectful approach to her as she concluded her statement.
‘During this time in my life, I truly hope the public and my fans who I care so much about can respect my privacy moving forward. All the love, B.’
Scary overreaction: Although she stressed that police never ‘entered’ her house and stayed at her gate, she said the situation went ‘a little too far’ in a statement posted to Twitter
Spears – who days ago claimed she had changed her name to River Red – has frequently taken down her Instagram in recent months, even claiming one time she ‘accidentally’ deleted her page.
On Wednesday, shortly before deleting her account for the fifth time in five months, the Toxic singer – who was released from a 13 year conservatorship in April 2022 – shared a post slamming online trolls.
She wrote: ‘Rational people… I had one of these and it disappeared!!! I could sit back and be like MOST and not give anyone anything to think about on Instagram…
‘But interest is what serves most and being good!!!
‘Being good can and will wrap things up in a seashell!!! Living the lavida loco life!!!
‘It gets better because that’s what I aim for!!! Keep coughing playas and just remember to watch your back!!! Or you might just get caught!!! Yep sucks to be me.
‘Keep talking s**t or maybe it will just rain from the sky!!! Giving someone I love my everything only gives me the dagger in the heart!!!
‘So at this point… I generously serve you my s**t… eat my s**t.’
The deactivation comes after the singer was reportedly been seen ‘talking gibberish’ when fans tried to take photos of her dining with Sam at the JOEY restaurant in Woodland Hills on Friday, before he appeared to storm out, TMZ initially reported.
However, Sam also spoke to a photographer on Sunday and explained that his wife was just ‘frustrated’ that fans were trying to take their picture while they were having dinner.
‘People get a little too excited to see my wife so everybody is filming, doing their thing,’ he explained. ‘But you know how it is, fame comes with the territory and I went to get the car to get the hell out of there, and people just thought I’d left, but that didn’t happen. So it is what it is man.’

Asked if Britney – whose conservatorship was terminated last year – had felt frustrated by the situation, Sam added: ‘Yes, exactly – she felt frustrated and disrespected.’
She followed up the concerning episode by posting a video of her flipping off the camera in a video set to Divinyls’ I Touch Myself.
Then on Sunday, she posted a caption explaining the incident which read: ‘I watched ‘NATURAL BORN KILLERS’ this morning and damn I got ENLIGHTENED … and HOLY SMOKES S**T BALLS.
‘I’m sure I brought a billion SMILES to me LOOKING LIKE SHREK at a restaurant. Even my best friend couldn’t WAIT TO SEND IT TO ME, THEY DON’T THINK TWICE because we are all natural born killers,’ Spears added.
‘I know the news is all hyped about me being a little drunk at a restaurant … it’s like they’ll be WATCHING MY EVERY MOVE !!!’ Spears continued.
‘I’m so flattered they talk about me like a maniac THEN have the balls to talk about all the negative things that happened in my past !!!’ she said.
‘Honestly it would be safer for me to compliment this world and f**k up because if I become a prophet and don’t create history, we might have something y’all… I’m just KIDDING, but it’s a good thought,’ Spears added.
‘I know y’all are rooting for me and all and make sure you check out the shocking Shrek picture of me,’ she added.
‘I was like damn that’s horrific yet there were two pics where I was normal … either way honestly I know nobody gives a flying f**k what I do !!! I’m just bored writing this paragraph like a damn idiot,’ Spears concluded.
The Piece of Me singer was apparently triggered when restaurant patrons whipped out their cell phones and began snapping unwarranted photos and videos of her.
Footage obtained by the outlet shows Britney trying to cover her face with a menu to keep prying eyes at bay.
Eyewitnesses allege the Grammy winner became increasingly upset and began ‘yelling’ and speaking in gibberish, which prompted her spouse to storm out.
The former Disney star left the venue a few moments later with her bodyguard, who returned to pay the bill.
It comes after Britney responded to rumors about her former boyfriend Justin Timberlake, clarifying her new heart tattoo ‘had nothing to do with an ex in the past’.
Britney took to social media on Thursday to clarify that her new heart-shaped tattoo The superstar recently showed off her new ink right after sharing some throwback snaps of her and the Cry Me a River hitmaker, 41, leading fans to speculate they may have been related.
However, in a new text post on her Instagram Stories, the Toxic songstress explained: ‘Just to clarify… my tattoo had nothing to do with an ex in the past!!!’
‘I simply did it because I wanted to!!! The pic with my ex is a time where there was less confusion on what it meant to be together… it is what it is,’ she stated.
It comes after she revealed a new tattoo of a love heart on her arm on recent trip to Hawaii, but admitted she instantly regretted it.
After going under the needle for at least the 10th time, the Grammy-winning singer wrote that she disliked the artwork.
‘Tattoo in Maui 3 days ago,’ she captioned the footage, which showed her getting inked in the middle of her hotel room while vacationing in the Aloha State.
She continued: ‘Can’t show it because it sucks [three laughing emojis]!!! Like really really sucks!!! Sh**!!! Psss … I have to fix it!!!
