Britney Spears is reportedly in need of some major change after her "inexcusable" arrest.
Page Six obtained a statement from Spears' manager Cade Hudson on Thursday (March 5) speaking out after the "Toxic" singer was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence the previous night.
"This was an unfortunate incident that is completely inexcusable," the statement read. "Britney is going to take the right steps and comply with the law and hopefully this can be the first step in long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney's life. Hopefully, she can get the help and support she needs during this difficult time."
Hudson added that her sons Sean Preston and Jayden James, whom she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline, "are going to be spending time with her" and that her "loved ones are going to come up with an overdue needed plan to set her up for success for well being."
TMZ was the first to report the news that the "Baby One More Time" singer was arrested by the California Highway Patrol around 9:30 p.m. local time on Wednesday, March 4, in Westlake Village, not far from her home. She was reportedly taken to a hospital to have blood drawn to determine her blood alcohol content, which she reportedly told people was .06 percent. The outlet notes that while the legal limit in California is .08 percent, individuals can still be charged with DUI if officers observe erratic driving.
According to inmate records with the Ventura County Sheriff's Office, Spears was booked around 3 a.m. and released three hours later. She is scheduled to appear in court on May 4.
