Britney Spears Arrested in California for DUI

Britney Spears was arrested in Ventura County, California Wednesday night for a DUI, law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

The pop superstar was handcuffed by the California Highway Patrol around 9:30 PM last night … but she’s since been released, according to Ventura County Sheriff’s inmate records.

TMZ has reached out to her team for comment.

Interestingly enough, Brit’s run-in with the law comes just after she had a legal victory when she was granted a permanent restraining order against a Louisiana man who randomly showed up at her L.A. home after allegedly sharing several “disturbing social media posts.”

The 51-year-old man has been harassing her online since 2013, according to Britney’s court filing. He was also arrested for trespassing at her residence in 2025.
