Los Angeles: Britney Spears has completed her rehab program and left the luxury facility that shielded the pop singer from the media glare for the first time in her career, a news report said on Wednesday.
People magazine quoted her manager, Larry Rudolph, as saying she "has been released by the Promises Malibu Treatment Center after successfully completing their program."
It was not known when Britney left Promises. An e-mail sent to her publicist was not immediately answered.
Twenty-five-year old Britney checked into Promises on February 21 after increasingly erratic public behavior that coincided with an escalating divorce battle and focus on her stalled career.
While the minimum stay for most centers is 30 days, Promises founder Richard Rogg has said the usual stay at his facility is about 45 days.
Country star Keith Urban recently spent three months at the Betty Ford Center for alcohol abuse.
Promises, a celebrity magnet nestled in the mountains overlooking the Pacific Ocean, offers a tough-love philosophy that requires patients to perform menial chores in a highly pampered setting.
In the week leading up to her arrival at Promises, Britney had spent less than a day at guitarist Eric Clapton's Crossroads rehab center in Antigua.
She then returned to Los Angeles, where she tearfully shaved her head in a beauty salon, went to Promises on February 20, left the next morning but was back later that day.
Britney filed for divorce from second husband Kevin Federline in November after two years of marriage and two children.
She was photographed without panties while hitting the nightclub circuit.
Her recording career, meanwhile, is dormant. She released her last album of new material, In the Zone in 2003.
