...Spears was an unhinged superstar unraveling daily in front of a captivated global audience and voracious media scrum. There were hours of aimless driving, underwear-free outings with Paris Hilton, a bizarre romance with a paparazzo, an involuntary psychiatric hold. But after more than a year of belching putrid black smoke, the Britney machine is humming along quite nicely, thank you, and these days it's about the music, not the antics. Did she really shave her head or was that just a bad dream? (See Britney Spears in the top 10 celebrity Twitter feeds...

...during the investigation into Kebble's death that the hapless Agliotti's relationship with Selebi emerged. Selebi, who was the country's first black police chief, once said of Agliotti that he was "my friend, finish and klaar [done]." The two men now appear to be estranged. They did not look at each other in court, and at one point during last week's testimony, Agliotti seemed close to tears when he said, "It's not easy being here.
