Britney Spears has recently put a couple of really fucked up years behind her. She's gone through a divorce, lost her kids, shaved her head, gone to rehab, flashed her crotch, dated a paparazzi, beaten a car with an umbrella, flopped at the VMA's and had a police stand-off which ended up with her being strapped to a gurney and hauled off.

In an upcoming documentary designed to help launch her comeback, Spears talks about her past behavior and her ongoing battle with loneliness. In the interview, Spears actually has moments of self-awareness, where she realizes that walking around gas station snack shops wearing a pink wig and speaking with a British accent was actually kind of weird.

"'I sit there and I look back and I'm like, "I'm a smart person. What the hell was I thinking?"' Spears said in an interview to air on MTV on Nov. 30, two days before the release of her new album.

'I've been through a lot in the past two or three years, and there's a lot that people don't know.'

'Sometimes I think I get kind of lonely because you don't open the gate up that much, you know I mean?' she continues.

'You're guarded. You have to be that way, so I'm kind of stuck in this place and it's like: How do you deal? And you just cope, and that's what I do. I just cope with it, every day.'"
