American singer, Britney Spears was immediately taken to a hospital after her DUI arrest.
The Princess of Pop had her blood drawn Thursday morning so officials could determine her blood alcohol content, TMZ reported.
The outlet noted that the singer, 44, has been “telling people [her BAC] was .06.”
While the legal limit in California is .08 percent, individuals can be charged with driving under the influence if seen operating a vehicle erratically.
TMZ noted that the Grammy winner was not injured while being taken into custody in Ventura County, Calif., on Wednesday evening.
Spears was booked at 3:02 a.m. the following morning and released at 6:07 a.m.
The “Crossroads” actress is scheduled to appear in court on May 4.
Her manager, Cade Hudson, told Page Six in a statement that he hopes Spears’ detainment is “the first step in long overdue change.”
He continued, “This was an unfortunate incident that is completely inexcusable. Britney is going to take the right steps and comply with the law. … Hopefully, she can get the help and support she needs during this difficult time.”
Hudson added that the performer’s “loved ones are going to come up with an overdue-needed plan to set her up for success for well-being,” noting that her sons — Sean Preston, 20, and Jayden James, 19 — “are going to be spending time with her.”
Spears has deactivated her Instagram account in the wake of her arrest.
Hours before being taken into custody, the songwriter posted videos of herself dancing seductively at her Thousand Oaks home.
The “Stronger” singer has repeatedly made headlines for erratic behavior in recent months, including swerving while driving home from a restaurant in October 2025
.
Spears blamed the concerning video on a “lookalike” last year, insisting to her social media followers, “That was not me.”
