Britney Spears single again

It seems Britney Spears is single again, if her Twitter account is anything to go by.

After a tumultuous few years during which the pop star suffered with mental health problems and displayed some erratic behaviour, Spears seemed to have finally settled down with her "everyday Dave" - lawyer David Lucado.

But, in one sentence, the singer has told the world that Lucado may now be out of the picture.

"Ahhhh the single life!" the singer tweeted on Friday.

If she has broken up with her beau, this comes at a bad time for the singer who has been copping flak recently for miming during her performances at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas.

The latest lip-synching fiasco (there has been more than one) involved Aussie singer Sia whose voice could be heard singing in a clip of one of Spears's Planet Hollywood performances posted online by a fan.

While Spears's camp have since denied there was any lip-synching, the pop star has been accused of miming on numerous occasions during her Vegas show.

Spears may now have to weather the storm without Lucado by her side.

The lawyer was seen as a stable choice for the singer in comparison with her previous showbusiness relationships with singer Justin Timberlake, dancer Kevin Federline (who she married) and her manager, Jason Trawick. Not to mention, the pop star's shotgun Las Vegas wedding to her high school sweetheart, Jason Allen Alexander.

Spears has been posting pictures of her and her two sons by Federline, Sean and Jayden, to her Twitter account lately so perhaps the boys will be there to mop up their mother's break-up tears.
