The singer, who checked into Malibu's Promises rehab center in February, jokingly revealed her new album has proven so stressful she is considering a new career.
When Britney was asked when fans could hear her new LP, she smiled and replied: "I think I might be quitting!"
Britney, who is set to work with top producer Timbaland on her music comeback, was seen at the Millennium Dance Studio in North Hollywood undergoing a grueling two-hour dance rehearsal yesterday (April 11, 2007).
Meanwhile, Britney's ex-lover Justin Timberlake has been phoning her to offer a shoulder to cry on.
Justin, who dated Britney for four years before they split in 2002, was so concerned about Britney checking into rehab he contacted her.
He said: "I called her because I am worried about her. She is a great woman. I'm rooting for her. It seems like she is getting everything under control now."
Oh, I thought the same when I saw the headline!
