The pop star checked out of Promises Malibu Alcohol and Drug Rehab Treatment Facility "after successfully completing their program," Spears' manager, Larry Rudolph, said in a statement released by Jive Records late Tuesday.

Here's hoping her troubles are behind her.

We have doubts about the veracity of this story because it seems quite tabloidy and silly. Nonetheless, mainstream news outlets are picking up the story and reporting it.

It's hard to tell where fake tabloid news ends and "real" news begins these days. Something tells me that line is just going to be become more and more blurred as time goes on.

One theory is that Britney may have been using alcohol and drugs to cope with her postpartum depression. It's great that she is remaining in rehab this time and is finally getting the help and treatment she needs. Hopefully her doctors can get to the bottom of the problem.

TMZ: Britney's Post-Partum Struggle

Checked out of Promises after less than 24 hours.

Tried to enter a tattoo shop but it was closed.

Visited the Bel Air Hotel wearing the same blonde wig she'd worn a couple days earlier.

Went to ex Kevin Federline's house to see her two sons (Federline has had custody of them for the past week). He wouldn't let her see the kids and she reportedly got upset.

Took an umbrella and smashed a paparazzo's car as well as the paparazzo himself, who was left marked by the incident.

Was driven back to Promises rehab by her mother, where she remains for now.

All of the above happened between 8am on Wednesday, when she checked out of rehab, and 10:30pm the same night, when she re-entered rehab.

In other Britney news, her manager Larry Rudolph is denying a story in the National Enquirer that she attempted suicide the night she shaved her head. He told tv show Extra:

“The story is absolutely untrue. She is in rehab, and it is very disappointing that various media outlets are running these false stories about her, as Britney tries to get better.”

She entered rehab over Valentine's Day and stayed for only 24 hours. Let's hope she stays and gets the help she needs this time.

Her manager said: "Britney Spears has voluntarily checked herself into an undisclosed rehab facility," Rudolph's statement, released to Access, read. "We ask that the media respect her privacy as well as those of her family and friends at this time."
