Originally posted 05/09/2009 11:30AM

Ever have fantasies about being pulled over by a sexy police officer? Well, some famous pop stars seem to be channeling their inner patrolwoman by rocking the cop hat.

Beyoncé was the first to bring the uniform back in her "If I Were a Boy" video in 2008 in which she slams an offender on her patrol car as her crush ogles her fierce ways. Britney Spears donned a sexy cop getup during her "Circus" tour, reprimanding her cheating boytoy to her hit "Womanizer." Most recently, Victoria Beckham took the trend off the stage and onto the streets en route from a flight from L.A. this week.

Casey Aldridge has been released from intensive care and is walking around for the first time since suffering a head injury in a car accident on Sunday.

"He came out of ICU," a source tells PEOPLE, adding that doctors are hopeful they'll soon be able to discharge Aldridge – the father of Jamie Lynn Spears's 10-month-old daughter Maddie – from the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, Miss.

Aldridge, who turned 20 on Wednesday, was up "walking around twice [on Tuesday]," says a source close to the family. "He was a little wobbly because that's the first time he's been up since the wreck."

Britney Spears Walks Off Stage During Concert

Originally posted 04/09/2009 07:50AM

The show didn't go on in Vancouver Wednesday night after Britney Spears pulled the plug on her sold-out Circus concert 15 minutes and three songs into her performance – departing the stage and leaving the audience in the GM Place in the dark for more than half an hour. Boos ensued.

Cigarette smoke from the crowd was blamed, with a female voice announcing to the crowd, "The building is awfully smoky. It is uncomfortable for everyone on stage, including Ms. Spears. Please extinguish all cigarettes – this is a non-smoking building, and the show will resume when the smoke on the stage is cleared," the Vancouver Sun reports.

Until the agitated crowd settled down, GM Place was filled with piped-in intermission music played at hockey games – which, one concertgoer told PEOPLE, left the fans "really pissed off. The break in the concert ruined it for everyone. The vibe was gone."

Is Britney Spears Trying to End Her Father's Control?

It seems Britney Spears's life has gone from soap opera to spy novel.

Sam Lutfi's younger sister Christina testified in a Los Angeles court Wednesday that she recently snuck a cell phone to the pop star at a Beverly Hills hotel – a plan allegedly hatched by Spears herself.

Spears, 27, whose phone access is strictly limited by her father Jamie, had initially called Sam's cell phone number in mid-January to speak with Christina.

"[Britney] told me she wanted to get a hold of Sam," said Christina, 25, whose brother had once been Spears's manager. "She wanted him to help her find a lawyer, and wanted someone to get a prepaid cell phone to her. She was scared because her father was blackmailing her with visitation rights over her kids."
