Star magazine is reporting that Britney Spears secretly wed paparazzi boyfriend Adnan Ghalib last month during their brief trip to Mexico. Star claims the couple had the ceremony at Rosarito Beach, and have a source who has seen the wedding documents. While it sounds impossibly crazy, that doesn't mean jack in the world of Britney Spears. In fact, the more impossibly crazy/totally ridiculous something sounds, the higher the likelihood that Britney Spears actually did it. Walked around a clothing store naked? Sounded crazy, turned out to be true. Held her own kid hostage? Sounded crazy, turned out to be true. Killed a turtle so she could wear its shell as a hat? Sounds crazy, but I bet we find out she's done that too. So while it sounds totally and completely crazy to run off to Mexico and secretly get married, you never know.
Really, the only logical explanation for Britney Spears' wild jaunt to Mexico last month was that she was going to get married, but it took Star magazine to connect the dots.
The glossy says she "secretly wed" lens-lizard Adnan Ghalib during the visit - which is legally meaningless, as he has not yet divorced his previous wife, AzLynn Berry.
Star ed Candace Trunzo tells me: "Our source on this was not in Rosarito Beach at the ceremony, but is very familiar with the fact that [wedding] documents exist."
More interestingly, the mag says Spears gave Ghalib $250,000 to grease AzLynn's exit. She allegedly told her lawyers, who had imposed a grand-a-day spending limit, that she needed the cash for a new Mercedes.

Britney does have a bit of a history of getting married impulsively. There was the 55 hour marriage to childhood friend Jason Alexander. Oh, and the wedding to K-Fed, when all the guests thought they were coming over for an engagement party. So running off to Mexico in a not-quite-entirely-thought-though plan to get married doesn't seem beyond the realm of possibility for Britney Spears. AzLynn Ghalib finally filed for divorce from Adnan on January 18th, so there might be some truth to this story. Since the marriage isn't legally binding, it wouldn't matter a whole heck of a lot either way. But Britney Spears being in a marrying state of mind is never a good thing. Run, men, run and lock your doors!
