Britney
Spears

lifted
the
lid
on
the
depth
of
her
drug
woes.
Talking
about
Spears" relationship
with
Howie
Day,
whom
she
met
in
Promises
rehab,

Day
sent
her
further
off
the
rails.

incident,
when
Barretto,
his
colleague
and
Spears"
friend
Alli
Sims
were
desperately
trying
to
get
hold
of
a
doctor
to
detoxify
her.
“We
could
see
Britney
all
red-eyed
from
crying.
Howie
was
lying
in
his
boxers
asleep
on
the
bed.
The
hotel
room
was
trashed," he
said.
"There
were
half-eaten
plates
of
food
everywhere.
There
were
blankets
all
over
the
floor,
clothes
strewn
everywhere.
The
trash
was
emptied
everywhere
over
the
floor."
"The
entire
place
was
littered
with
empty
beer
bottles
and
liquor
bottles,
small
glasses
of
ice
and
cigarette
butts
everywhere."
"On
the
surface
of
the
dresser,
I
could
see
mounds
of
white
powder
and
a
straw
on
top.
I
suspected
it
was
cocaine
or
powdered
methamphetamines.""By
the
side
I
spotted
a
glass
pipe,
which
I
knew
from
my
drugs
training
was
often
used
with
crystal
meth.".
"I
couldn't
believe
what
I
was
seeing.
Britney
was
completely
out
of
it.
We
thought
she'd
overdosed.
She
was
distraught,
crying.
Her
skin
was
all
waxy.
She
looked
so
ill."
"We
tried
to
speak
to
her.
My
fellow
bodyguard
and
Alli
were
so
worried
they
wanted
to
get
hold
of
a
medic
to
detoxify
her.
We
were
panicking."
"We
thought
she
was
going
to
die,"
he
said.
