Britney Spears has left Malibu Promises rehab on Wednesday after spending only one day there, according to TMZ reports, just a week after she bailed at a different facility.

The television news magazine "The Insider" reported that Spears called a car service, and walked out of the Promises Residential Treatment Centers in Malibu, Calif., and left the facility early Wednesday morning.

Later, the TV show "Extra" and TMZ.com confirmed Spears, 25, had left the center.

The disturbed singer and mother of two babies in diapers still allegedly tried to get into another tattoo parlor before going home, but it was closed, "Extra" reported.

Spears checked into rehab after a bizarre weekend that included shaving her own head and getting tattoos.

Photographs on various blogs showed a bald Spears on the grounds of the rehab center, smoking a cigarette.

Spears' manager, Larry Rudolph, told People magazine's Web site that Spears had voluntarily checked herself into a treatment facility.

"We ask that the media respect her privacy as well as those of her family and friends at this time," Rudolph was quoted as saying.

A friend of Spears' ex, Kevin Federline, told the New York Post that Federline had joined forces with Spears' mother Lynne to get help for the pop singer.

"He has put his career on hold right now to focus on his kids and his family — to try and get Britney better," the pal said. "The girl has gone bonkers and everyone is shocked the kids were still in her care. But her mom, Kevin and her dad are all in L.A. right now trying to take care of her."

"This girl is out of control," Joy Behar, a co-host on ABC's "The View," said Monday. "And, she's in a lot of trouble. A lot of people feel this is self-mutilation."

She needs to go the way of Anna Nicole, along with Paris, and other good for nothing (except humpen like mad dogs)losers that she's friends with. It will be great to have news without these names mentioned. Then when another round of losers are old enough, the same thing happen to them. They should be used for composting.

The *media* needs to stop following Britney's every move. I think that either she is manipulating the 'press', or the 'press' is driving her batty. What ever is ~really~ going on, It's out of control. Absolute chaos, and I for one am sick of it.

By the way... why are 'gossip' sites like tmz being quoted as if they're a legitimate 'news' source?! 'gossip' sites LIE and FABRICATE 'stories' ALL THE TIME. The world has lost it's mind obviously.

I for one could care less if Brittney shaves her head, cuts off her ears, or eats her eyeballs.. its JUST not real news.

She is trying to unfame herself... She has studied what mistakes made others not famous, and she has chosen to break all the rules... This is a classic case of a plan doomed to backfire... Hey why dont you just go do some drugs in public? kick a baby? burn your husbands house down.. youll be an instant loser. You are already on that track. I think you should seek some advise, you are not healthy right now.....

I hope she gets through this without causing too much damage. The hair doesn't matter- nor do the tattoos. Let's not get caught up in the superficial smoke and mirrors. What is most alarming is seeing a young girl drifting so aimlessly and looking to anything and everything to make her happy. Until she settles all of the questions and turmoil in her own mind then this 'train wreck' will continue. If she isn't going to commit to rehab then maybe a Life Coach or a one on one with a therapist would help. Either way she has got to get her head on straight in order to have that life she wants with her children. It is just plain sad seeing a person go through this. You want to turn away, but it really is like watching someone teetering on the edge- will she fall?

I really think that people should give Britney a break. That is why she is in this mess in the first place. Everyone is watching her single move. She is being labeled 'crazy ' etc, no wonder the girl is distressed.

So what she shaved her hair. So did Natalie Portman, Sinead O' Connor. Any normal person going through a divorce to the likes of that rat K-fed, whoes 'friends' talkes to the media would feel betrayed and wouldn't have the spotlight on them like she does.

So I am hoping Britney mends her heart and returns her stronger and happier self.

(which doesn't necessarily include a six pack, blonde highlights and several no 1 hits.)

Let the first person who hasn't made humiliating mistakes in their own life cast the first stone at Britney. Instead writing hurtful things about her and making jokes, we should be the good people we are supposed to be and support her in an obvious time of need. So she has fallen down, let's pick her back up. Behind all the money and fame she is a real person and a real mom with real feelings and struggles. Props to the people and organizations that are already reaching out to help her. How painful it must be to walk in her shoes right now.

Where is the humanity for this girl? She is a member of the human race, a being that has been hunted by the media, did she ask to be hunted in this way? Is it out of control? I can't imagine that doing a job in entertainment equates to consenting for 50 to 200 camera weilding stalkers (posing as journalists) following every move. Back off give this girl some space so she can work it out. Geez why are people so unkind?

I used to love Britney, but K-Fed putting his career on hold is the last straw.Isn't it bad enough she makes him walk around like he doesn't have any other talent aside from being very fertile? She is keeping the American public from our next Marky Mark! Well maybe not Marky Mark but more like the Funky Bunch. Shes keeping us from our next Funky Bunch. And the Funky Bunch I remember!

Hey Brits is OK...just give her a little more time to bloom..we all needed that little extra time...or did we all grow at the same rate...I don't think so...I'm sure we don't...let's just hope nothing serious ever happens to her...what would you think if your son/daughter was in a similar situation/circumstance...anyways...patience babe...patience.....
