It was announced that pop star Britney Spears was the number one person researched on the Internet for the year according to online analysis and this week she proved to be no less noteworthy. In the week during which Spears turned 26 and had a small gathering of friends sing to her and then give her close to fifty thousand dollars worth of leather, fur and diamonds, she also failed to turn up to the shooting of the music video for her single “Piece of Me” and when it became apparent she was not showing up, her record company Jive Records began dressing the set so that one of their other artists could use it. As soon as Spears heard that this was happening she turned around and arrived on set 12 hours late. Later in the week Spears released a statement saying she had sent a letter to reality TV personality Paris Hilton requesting that Hilton start being nicer to her and her friends or she would release a lesbian sex tape of Hilton online.
