• Britney Spears seen in tattoo parlor with her head shaved bald
• Police arrive to control crowd of fans and photographers
• Appearance came same day as reports Spears tried rehab
• Spears' manager could not be reached for comment

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Britney Spears appeared in a tattoo parlor in the San Fernando Valley with her head shaved completely bald.

Video on KABC-TV showed the newly shorn Spears with tiny tattoos on the back of her neck as she sits Friday night for a new tattoo -- a pair of red and pink lips.

"She just wanted something real small on her wrist, something dainty," Max Gott, the tattoo artist at Body and Soul in Sherman Oaks, told the TV station. "She got some cute little lips on her wrist."

Derrik Snell, who works at the tattoo parlor, said Spears showed up without notice and stayed for about 90 minutes as about 60 fans, photographers and gawkers gathered outside.

"She seemed fine," Snell said. "I didn't really notice [the hairdo] at first, she had a hood on when she showed up."

The appearance came the same day as reports on TV and Web sites that Spears, who has drawn criticism for her recent partying and sloppy behavior, had briefly checked into rehab.

Larry Rudolph, Spears' manager, couldn't be reached for comment.

Syndicated entertainment TV show "Extra" first reported that Spears had entered a treatment facility. Celebrity Web site TMZ.com then said the singer had entered a treatment center but had checked out one day later. Neither revealed their sources.

People magazine's Web site, citing "a source," said Spears had gone in and out of rehab, and identified the facility as Eric Clapton's Crossroads center in Antigua, in the Caribbean.

"Access Hollywood" then said the reports weren't true, but didn't cite a source.

A woman who answered the phone at Crossroads told The Associated Press that she couldn't confirm or deny anyone's presence at the facility.

Angelique Uram, a Spears fan who stood on the tattoo parlor's sidewalk for Friday night's spectacle, was aghast at the singer's new look.

"We could see her in the mirror, and her head is completely shaved," she told KABC. "It looks terrible."

Police arrived to control the crowd and helped Spears' bodyguards guide her into a waiting SUV, her head covered by a hooded sweatshirt.

I'm actually at a loss for words. Do I care? Should I care? Is she nuts? Am I nuts?

I have no answers.

All I know of Britney Spears is she used to be okay to look at, but even that's beyond debateable now, but she has never done anything worthy of meriting inclusion in the Music Only forum. She's outta here!

I do bald better than Britney does.

My fiancee says that with her shaved head she looks like one of the Manson chicks ala Squeaky Fromme. What's next, is she going to carve an "X" in her forehead?

Sqeaky. That's the name I was trying to place. I kept coming up w/ Twiggy though. I don't suppose there's much difference. That girl is nuckin' futs!! Somebody better pull an intervention on her quick.

And, since we've already got a Britney-related thread here, there's no reason for a second.

Closed... Like her legs should be from here on out.
