THE RAT IS BACK

Fetch the men in white coats to cart the loon back to the hospital as Britney Spears has clearly lost it again if reports that she's back with uber slime ex boyfriend paparazzo Adnan Ghalib. After the news of the rat's return to the fold yesterday, we now learn that the rumour is that she's back with him because she fears he may be about to release the sex tape that he apparently made on their dirty weekend to Mexico. So with any luck she's just lured him back in so she can suffocate him in his sleep...

A 'source' told The Mail: "Britney's really scared that Adnan has a sex tape."

"She wants to get it out of his hands."

As no doubt will Poppa Spears, who is known to hate the snapper.

"Britney's father can't stand Adnan," added the source.

"He thinks he's seedy, with ulterior motives."

Well, top detective skills there, Jamie Spears!

But there's fresh evidence about the source of Britney's madness as mother Lynne is apparently a fan of Adnan.

"She always thought his intentions were semi-honourable," said the source.

Semi honourable? WTF?

"She knows that even if she disapproved, it's useless trying to dissuade Britney from making her own choices when it comes to men."
