LOS ANGELES - The whereabouts of Britney Spears has been a hot topic over the last 24 hours, with conflicting reports weaving a web of confusion.

Has she left the kids with Kevin Federline and gone halfway around the world, as some reports have claimed, or is she just stuck in Hollywood traffic?

A restaurant owner in the city of Antwerp, Belgium, claimed that a wig-wearing Spears made an emergency stop in the establishment’s bathroom yesterday.

According to a report from Splash News, the staff at the Erasmus restaurant was “stunned” when Spears came through the front door with her bodyguards. Restaurant owner Luka van der Poel reportedly claimed that the pop star “didn’t look her best” as she sported a wig that was far too big for her.

Perhaps she “didn’t look her best” because it wasn’t actually her in the Belgian bathroom!

Britney is actually at home in Los Angeles — and she has her boys, 23-month-old Sean Preston and 11-month-old Jayden James, with her.

Cruising the Los Angeles streets yesterday in her black Mercedes, Spears reportedly drove aimlessly with a friend and her two sons for two hours through rush hour traffic. She eventually returned home at 6:30 p.m.

Random acts of driving are nothing new for Spears, who is often seen cruising the L.A. area. Just last week, she was photographed driving in Bel-Air ... without a wig.

Perhaps the bewigged Belgian body-double wasn’t aware of that new development.
