Britney Spears vacations in Mexico

Hello, I'm Rebecca Field with a UPI entertainment update on this Friday, January 11, 2008.

Britney Spears has taken some time away from the turmoil in L.A. for a Mexican getaway. The pop star reportedly checked in to a hotel just south of the California border on Wednesday. She was joined by her photographer friend who, sources say, she is now dating. Just a week ago, Spears lost visitation rights with her kids following a custody dispute in her home.

Clothing designer Stella McCartney has a new addition to her family. The daughter of former Beatle Paul McCartney and her husband Alasdhair Willis welcomed a baby boy on Tuesday. His name is Beckett Robert Lee. The new baby joins siblings Miller Alasdhair James and Bailey Linda Olwyn.

Pamela Anderson is rejecting rumors that she's pregnant. Reports surfaced recently that she was expecting. But on her blog, Anderson responded with one word..."no." She and husband Rick Salomon are reportedly in the middle of a divorce. Salomon was served with legal papers last month, after only 2 months of marriage.

Actress Mischa Barton is opening up about her recent DUI arrest. The former "O.C." star tells radio host Ryan Seacrest she's "100 percent responsible" for her actions. Barton added that she's really disappointed in herself. The actress was arrested for driving under the influence last month after a night out with friends.

Stars hit the red carpet in London last night for the European premiere of "Sweeney Todd." The film's stars Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter attended the event as well as Director Tim Burton. Other stars like Alan Rickman and Laura Michelle Kelly were there too. The film, based on the Broadway musical, premiered in the U.S. last month.

That's all for now. To find more of the day's news and updates go to upi.com. Thanks for watching!
