She's so lucky...she's a star...

Britney Spears' recent self-arranged interview with OK! Magazine was a catastrophe, according to TMZ. The website is reporting that Spears’ behavior during the interview was “nothing less than a meltdown.” The photos were so bad, multiple sources told the site, that to publish them could “kill her career.”

TMZ says the singer’s eyes rolled back in her head at one point and that she took frequent bathroom breaks, returning in a different mood every time. Britney reportedly was so paranoid during the entire interview that at one point, she feared the ceiling was about to cave in on her.

According to the website, Spears also shocked onlookers during the OK! shoot with several less-than-tidy moves. The singer reportedly snacked on fried chicken then wiped her greasy hands on a several-thousand-dollar Gucci dress, staining it. Britney also reportedly cleaned up her dog’s feces with a Chanel dress after the dog relieved itself on-set.

The magazine was apparently weighing whether to run the Britney piece and risk damaging her career or to shelve it.

In an exclusive statement to TMZ on Tuesday, OK! Editor-in-Chief Sarah Ivens said the magazine is going ahead with publication. "OK! Magazine spent a heartbreaking day with Britney Spears and witnessed first-hand an emotional cry for help that will leave you shocked and sad," she said. "This week, on newsstands Friday, the truth will be told."
