It has emerged that the reason pop princess Britney Spears was dumped by her beau Jason Trawick was because of her recent kooky and embarrassing behaviour in public.
Spears, 28, is reportedly said to have suffered a series of embarrassing meltdowns and has been exploding in rages of jealousy.
“Britney goes through manic stages where her behaviour gets out of control,” News.com.au quoted a source close to the singer as telling UK’s Now magazine.
“Jason’s older and while he still likes clubbing, he also enjoys having nice dinners with close friends.
“Britney can be very excitable. She’s been known to jump on the table and start dancing and seems to like nothing more than describing the most intimate details of their sex life to people she’s only just met.
“She raged at Jason about his friendship with certain girls, even work colleagues. He told her she was acting hysterically, but that seemed to make her more possessive.
“All the years of paps following her have got to her and even at home she’s convinced that people are hiding in the bushes.
“She’s very paranoid and can’t sleep, She sometimes gets someone to drive her around at night to rock her to sleep.
“She’s been texting Adnan Ghalib again, although everyone’s told her he doesn’t have her best interests at heart.
“No one wants to see her go back to the bad old days, but it’s starting to look inevitable,” the source added.
The document, which boasts both stars’ signatures, was issued to the couple following a 15-minute ceremony on May 26 in 1994 in the Dominican Republic, reported contactmusic.com.

Filmmakers Abbas-Mustan have cleared the air about rumours that actor Abhishek Bachchan urged them to remove actress Priyanka Chopra from the cast of the Hindi remake of ‘The Italian Job’ saying she wasn’t offered the film at all.
‘The star cast of ‘Italian Job’ was finalised long time back. We had signed Abhishek Bachchan, Neil Nitin Mukesh and Katrina Kaif in the first go and Katrina was always our first choice so there was no question of talking to Priyanka Chopra,’ Abbas told IANS.
‘She was never approached or spoken to for this role so how can Priyanka lose out on a role she was never even considered for?’
Priyanka’s spokesperson confirmed it saying: ‘There have been no discussions with Priyanka for this film (’Italian Job’).’
Rumours have been abuzz that Priyanka was dropped from the film on Abhishek’s insistence after he learnt that she had refused a role in his friend Rohan Sippy’s film ‘Dum Maaro Dum’.
While Abbas has denied any such casting pressures from Abhishek, Sippy says the actor is non-interfering in this regard.
‘Abhishek is a consummate professional, who has never interfered in any part of the creative process on all the films we have worked on, including ‘Dum Maaro Dum’,’ said Sippy who has earlier worked with the actor in the hit film ‘Bluffmaster’.
‘Any media reports suggesting that he has been for or against any casting is categorically false and contrary to his position as a wonderful actor who is collaborating with some of the most respected directors and producers in the industry today,’ he added.

Oscar-winning actress Dame Helen Mirren has said that women should go for facelifts if they make them feel better about themselves.
The star said that she understands why women opt for cosmetic surgery in a bid to look younger.
“I don”t think there’’s outside pressure, I think it’’s the pressure you put on yourself when you look at yourself in the mirror in the morning,” the Telegraph quoted her a saying.
“You go, ”I don”t want to look at that face any more”, and I understand that, absolutely. I think people should be allowed to do whatever they want to make themselves feel happy,” she added.
The 64-year-old laughed off the suggestion that female audiences relate to her because she seems ”real” in a world of Hollywood fakery.
She told GMTV: “I think you go in and out of popularity. When you”re in the public eye, you go through phases. Sometimes people like you and sometimes they just can”t stand the sight of you. And then it comes back again. So I don”t think it’’s much to do with the way you look.”
‘Our film ‘Peepli Live’ was really well-received here at the Sundance Film Festival. We had our first screening on the 24th (Jan) at the Egyptian Theatre, Park City. Super reaction right through the film, and huge ovation at the end. Audience really seemed to love it,’ Aamir posted on his blog Wednesday.
Directed by Anusha Rizvi, ‘Peepli Live’ is a satire on rural life in India. It features Raghuvir Yadav along with debutant actors from Madhya Pradesh.
The actor, who has been conferred the Padma Bhushan, the nation’s third highest civilian honour, in this year’s Republic Day awards, says he was waiting for the reactions for ‘Peepli Live’.
‘I was really keen to see the reaction here at Sundance as I wanted to get a sense of how a non-Indian audience reacts to the film. Ninety percent of the audience was non-Indian. I am now even more certain that this film has the potential to engage a world audience.
‘The big challenge, when we release the film worldwide, will be to get them (audiences) in. It doesn’t have any stars and is in a language that they don’t understand,’ he added.
Orlando Bloom has revealed that he wants to reprise his role as an elf-prince in upcoming ‘Lord Of The Rings’ prequel ‘The Hobbit’.
The actor is so desperate that he’s already asked Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson, who will write the screenplay for the, about the cast.
Bloom landed his breakthrough role playing Legolas in Jackson’s 2001 epic ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring’, and he went on to star in the two sequels.
Work has now begin on a prequel, based on J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit - the book which began the fantasy story franchise - and Bloom wants to be involved.
“I shot an email to Pete and I said, ‘You know, if you want me to don the blond wig and pointy ears again, I’d be honoured to do it.’ He said - funnily enough - ‘Well, we’ll see’. They’re very, very hush-hush,” the Daily Star quoted him as telling MTV.com.
However, Bloom has admitted that the decision may rest with Guillermo del Toro, who will helm the blockbuster.
“It’s Guillermo’s movie and I’m a huge fan of that man. He’s obviously going to take his own idea of it, but I’m excited for that movie. I think it’s going to be great,” he said.
