More Britney, though a report on her professional career rather than her much documented loopiness for a change. And despite recent reports that Spears had lost out on a role in a new movie, the gossips are now saying that the singer is in fact still set to star in the film 'Memoirs Of A Medicated Child', and has not, as otherwise reported, been dropped in favour of Canadian singer Samantha Falk.
The film's director, Tommy Parker told PageSix: "The rumours of Britney Spears not starring in the movie are false. We still are in negotiations and the possibility of Britney still being in the movie remains the same. Samantha has been cast in the movie, but her involvement in the film does not affect the part we would like Britney to play".
However (and it's a big however), Falk herself has said in a statement that she's dropped out of appearing in the film and says that Brit's not involved either. Her statement said: "After reading some of the articles and interviews, I would like to say officially at this point that I am removing myself from all dealings with this film/project. I do not appreciate being misled by Tommy Parker in this manner. To my knowledge Britney Spears is in no way attached to this film at this time. Tommy Parker can choose to say whatever he wants. However, myself along with my clients will not be a part of it!"
So there you go. Meanwhile, back to the loopiness stories. And American TV self-help bod Dr Phil McGraw is reportedly facing an investigation by the California Board Of Psychology after he offered professional services to the singer after her most recent moment of loopiness (the barricading her kids in her house affair) despite not being licenced to offer such services. As previously reported, there were rumours the Spears family were mightily pissed off after he made public comment about Spears' condition, though other rumours did say otherwise. Either way, the CBP is reportedly investigating a complaint that McGraw approached Spears offering help without a licence to do so in California. It seems Dr Phil has never been licenced to practice in California, and he reportedly retired the licence he did have - in Texas - back in 2006. Working without a licence in California is against the law.
