Following a failed shopping excursion earlier in the day, Britney Spears headed back to her hotel - as she had to get ready for a big night on the town!

After getting all dolled up, the “Piece Of Me” singer stepped out in a sexy black mini dress with matching ankle boots upon arriving to the Richard Rodgers Theatre.

Out in Los Angeles as she continues to promote her new country album, Jessica Simpson was spotted running around town earlier today (September 30).

After finishing things up at the Virgin Megastore, the stars of “High School Musical” ventured off to check out a screening of their upcoming film in Paris, France on Tuesday (September 30).

It appears it wasn’t just an ordinary concerned citizen that called the police to alert them that a driver who turned out to be Heather Locklear was driving erratically. The woman who actually called 911 on Heather is a former Us Weekly staffer named Jill Ishkanian who was under investigation by the FBI. She allegedly hacked into Us Weekly’s computer system to locate celebrities after she left the magazine.

Jill as it turns out was following Heather in the Montecito area, and watched the actress go into a market. While Heather was coming back to her car, Jill was apparently busy calling 911 and tipping off the paparazzi who were on the scene for the arrest. Mind you at the time Heather hadn’t even started the car yet.

And apparently Jill is the only witness who says Locklear was driving erratically and claiming she was probably drunk, though it’s been established she was not under the influence of alcohol. Mind you in the photos and to the police on the scene Heather was looking pretty bewildered and out of it, but who knows maybe she was just in shock? Drug tests the cops administered will answer that question.

Anyway in regards to Jill’s role in this caper TMZ is the one reporting her alleged role in the arrest. And give them credit for that because they broke the story and obtained the photos from the on scene paparazzi, so they are probably feeling a bit red faced about perhaps being duped.

Taking care of her daily errands, Lauren Conrad was spotted making her way around Los Angeles with a female companion on Tuesday (September 30).
