Is Britney A Shadow Of Her Former Self?

The eyes are blank, the expression - gone. Where is Britney?

It's sad to look at these photos of Britney Spears because the Britney we know and love seems to be gone. She may be "stable," but she's not herself anymore. And you can't really say that she looks happy.

There may be one piece of the old Britney remaining -- she still frequents the sushi restaurant at Beverly Glen -- but when we caught her there last night, she looked like a zombie.
