Five years ago, the thought of Britney Spears getting tied to a bed with leather straps would cause widespread teenage drooling.
Not so much now, though, because if Britney Spears is going to be tied to a bed with leather straps, it's because Britney's bipolar disorder has got so out of hand that she's a danger to herself and others.
It's been confirmed that Britney Spears will spend the next two weeks in her padded room at the UCLA Medical Centre. And as well as the leather restraints, there's also a chance that Britney Spears could be force-fed medication if she's not cooperative. It's just like One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, only a version that everyone got sick of about two minutes in after seeing Jack Nicholson get out of a car with no knickers on for the tenth time.
It's been a day and a half since Britney Spears was taken to UCLA hospital and kept on psychiatric hold, but have things improved for Britney since then?
Not really. It's been reported that medics at the hospital have classified Britney Spears as 'GD' - or Gravely Disabled, which allows them to keep Britney against her will.
Seeing Britney Spears described as Gravely Disabled by expert professionals might look incredibly shocking, but don't worry - Gravely Disabled is actually two or three notches up from Wanting To Marry Kevin Federline, so at least we can presume that Britney Spears is on the up and up.
Britney Spears has just been sectioned after apparently trying to kill herself.
In scenes eerily reminiscent of the last time she was carted off to hospital after a meltdown, ambulances, helicopters and police cars all recently descended onto the home of Britney Spears to keep her detained in hospital for at least 72 hours.

We here at hecklerspray have a dream, and that dream includes two powerful fists, and shoes with spikes on the top & springs on the bottom. It's for jumping and jabbing. We're tough now, you see, and once we prove our manhood via physical combat in malls with random passer-bys, the Drudge Report might take us back.
It's just, It hasn't even called, you know?
Another person who's recently endured physical combat in the name of love, apparently, is Chris Martin. Gwyneth Paltrow just barely stayed in a hospital. When she was released a Papo said the wrong thing at the wrong time - then it was on!
There's even video...
It's been a long time since we heard from Eminem, but in the meantime it looks like he's been keeping busy by eating cake and walking around in wet clothes.
It's been reported, you see, that Eminem went to hospital over the Christmas period because of a serious heart condition and complications from pneumonia, with sources adding that he's increased in weight to over 200 lb. Of course, this illness and massive weight-gain means that Eminem can't be called Slim Shady any more, and so he's thought to be deciding on a new name, with either Fatt Poorly or Pensioner'z Illnezz being current front-runners.
Now that she's at her lowest-ever ebb, it seems obvious that what Britney Spears needs is some homespun, slightly sensationalist advice given by a TV presenter who looks like a shaved bear.
So with that in mind, thank Christ that Dr Phil has taken it upon himself to personally wade in and resolve to fix Britney Spears' broken mind forever. According reports, Dr Phil managed to accompany Britney Spears home after her weird little episode on Thursday evening that ended up with her being wheeled to hospital in a stretcher for psychological tests. And Dr Phil is so hell-bent on sorting out Britney Spears' life that he's even going to do a TV show all about it tomorrow. And quite right too, because if anything's going to set Britney onto the straight and narrow it's the sight of a chubby bald man pointing at a photo of her and shouting "Let's do it! Get real!" 350 times on the trot on daytime TV.
It's been a few hours since Britney Spears was wheeled out of her house on a stretcher, possibly on drugs, after a dispute with Kevin Federline over custody of their children.
So what more do we know now? Well, the main news is that Britney Spears has gone to hospital for tests. Not maths or spelling tests - it's far too early to put a strain like that on someone as fragile as Britney Spears - but psychological tests. After a run of weird behaviour that's lasted long over a year, doctors will soon check Britney Spears' system for drugs and alcohol and then begin to assess her mentally to see if she's a danger to herself, her kids or anyone else around her. This process might take anything up to three days, which means by Monday morning we'll know if Britney Spears is a heartbreaking sufferer of a mental illness of just a bit of an overdramatic numpty.
Britney Spears has been taken to hospital on a stretcher following a fight between Britney and Kevin Federline.
Details are a little vague at the moment, but it seems as though police were called to the home of Britney Spears a few hours ago because she was refusing
