BRITNEY GETS LUCKY AGAIN "Britney Spears' driving without a license case has been declared a mistrial, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge James A. Steele said Tuesday. After five votes and eight hours of deliberation, the jury of eight men and four women failed to agree on whether the singer, 26, was guilty of driving without a valid driver's license, a misdemeanor."

Did everyone have a good weekend? Heather Locklear did: The actress was arrested Saturday night in Santa Barbara for driving under the influence of what cops believe to be drugs. A resident called police after witnessing Heather "driving erratically"; when police found her, she had parked her car on a state highway, blocking a lane. Sounds perfectly normal to us.

After being tested for drugs and alcohol, law enforcement reported that alcohol was not involved. She was released without posting bail — but not before delivering one of the most terrifying mug shots of all time. Good one, Heather!
