Britney Spears hospitalized again

Hello it's Thursday, January 31, 2008. I'm Rebecca Field with today's UPI entertainment update.

Britney Spears is in the hospital again. The pop star was taken to an L.A. hospital early this morning for evaluation. Spears mother Lynne and her two friends were apparently at her house when police arrived to escort the singer to the hospital. There's no confirmation on what sparked the visit, but sources say she refused to take prescribed medication and was acting erratically.

Ethan Hawke is going to be a dad once again. The actor's rep says his girlfriend Ryan Shawhughes is pregnant. Shawhughes is also apparently the former nanny for his kids. No other details were given but Hawke's rep did say the two are thrilled. The actor already has two children with his ex-wife Uma Thurman...9 year old maya and 5 year old Levon.

The soundtrack for the film "Juno" is topping the album charts. The CD from the comedy starring Ellen Page and Michael Cera is number one on the Billboard top 200 list. Last week's chart topper, Alicia Key's "As I am" dropped down to number two. In the third spot is Natasha Bedingfield's release "Pocketful of Sunshine."

Montel Williams is saying goodbye to daytime talk. The host is reportedly ending the "Montel Williams" show after 17 years on air. But fans don't have to bid a final farewell quite yet. CBS will air the best shows of his career next fall. In a statement Williams thanks his fans and says it's been a "honor and joy." There's no word on what he plans to do next.

The Giants and the Patriots are getting all fired up for Super Bowl Sunday. The players turned up for media day at the University of Phoenix stadium earlier this week. The crowd included star players like Giants quarterback Eli Manning and Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. Even former American Idol contestant Kelly Pickler was there looking to interview some of the players for "The Tonight Show." The two teams will face off this weekend in Arizona.

That's all for now. Check out upi.com for the day's latest news and updates. Thanks for watching.
