Britney Spears' Marilyn burial

Britney Spears met Mel Gibson for a guidance session on Tuesday night. The troubled 'Toxic' singer - who was befriended by Mel after her hospitalisation in February - is believed to be seeking advice from the 'Braveheart' actor on how to get her life back on track.

Mel, who took Britney on holiday with his family in May, met the mother-of-two at the Beverley Hills' members-only Havana Club at 7pm, where the pair spent two hours talking intently.

A source told People magazine: "Britney looked pretty in her new Capri jeans a blue blouse, white shoes and a brown bag. She looked like a doll with bright red lipstick.

She was very quiet and had a serious look on her face as she walked in to the Havana Club. "However, Mel seemed upbeat and smiled as he arrived holding a man bag." Britney was seen leaving the club at 9pm, while Mel stayed until around 11pm.

The 26-year-old singer was first seen in public with Mel when they dined together in California in March. A source at the time revealed: "Mel and his wife Robin clearly saw a woman in crisis and wanted to extend themselves in any way possible. There are no expectations, there is no agenda. "It's simply an act of human kindness - one neighbour reaching out to the other." Mel and Britney used to have homes in the same Malibu neighbourhood.
