Pop superstar Britney Spears had to be rescued by cops in the middle of one of L.A.’s busiest freeways after she ran out of gas
According to law enforcement, the police got a call around 10 p.m. on Tuesday (July 12) after there was a report of a white Mercedes blocking the third lane southbound on the freeway.
After officers arrived, the newly married star, 40, was sitting in the back seat of a passerby’s car.

After that, the officers reportedly waited with Britney – who was grateful for the assistance until her husband Sam Asghari arrived to pick her up.
This is not the first time this has happened to the Toxic singer.
In 2006, she was cruising along the Pacific Coast Highway near her Malibu home with her older brother, Bryan Spears, behind the wheel of a Ferrari belonging to her then-husband, Kevin Federline.
The car “suddenly seized and ground to a halt in the middle of speeding traffic,” and the paparazzi that was following her helped pushed the vehicle to the highway’s shoulder.
Britney has been making headline recently having written a lengthy open letter on social media calling out the documentaries that were made about her conservatorship.
The singer was the subject of multiple docs over the past couple years, including Hulu’s Framing Britney Spears and Netflix’s Britney vs. Spears.

“Seriously though, think about it… I’ve never seen that many documentaries done on a person
