Britney Spears supposedly suffers from multiple personality disorder and has axed her assistant Carla because she now has her paparrazzi boyfriend taking care of things.

The 'Piece of Me' singer has been overheard speaking in a British accent
recently and it is claimed 'the British girl' is an identity the
mother-of-two cannot control.

A source told gossip website TMZ.com: "Britney has multiple personalities,
including 'the British girl', as we call her. She goes into this identity
and gets a British accent, but when she comes out of it she has absolutely
no idea what she did during that time.

"She has other identities and we have given a lot of them names. There is
the weepy girl, the diva, the incoherent girl and many more."

A source close to Brit tells PageSix.com that her "assistants are more like friends to her, because Britney often gets lonely. When she started dating Adnan, there was no need for Carla anymore."

Carla can rat out Britney to the media

Britney, 26, was hospitalized for a psychiatric evaluation on January 3
following a three-hour stand-off with police at her Beverly Hills home, when
she refused to return sons Sean Preston, two and 16-month-old Jayden James
to ex-husband Kevin Federline.

As she was wheeled out to the ambulance, strapped to a stretcher, she was
caught on video speaking in a British accent.

The insider also claims she had become 'the British girl' the day she did
not attend her court ordered deposition and claims to have no recollection
of it.

Meanwhile, Britney's friend Sam Lufti gave a telephone interview to Ryan
Seacrest's US radio show, denying she is pregnant and insisting she has no
plans to marry her new photographer boyfriend Adnan Ghalib.

Britney can be heard on the phone during the interview, talking from the
shower.

She said: "Get out, I'm naked, get out!"

Asked by Lufti why she's taking a shower, Britney said: "I stink, 'cause I'm
a human being. Shut the door, I'm nasty!"
