Britney Spears is publicly crediting her belief in Kabbalah for getting her through some recent tough times.

"There came a point where not even my family or my advisors had the answers I needed," the famous pop idol writes on her Web site. "The answers I was looking for were all in my heart. Through Kabbalah, I was able to look within myself, clear all the negative energy and turn my life around."

She even credits fellow pop idol Madonna for introducing her to the spiritual practice at a time when "it was much needed." Now that her life seems to be on a less turbulent path, according to the star, she wants fans of every religion to hear her message that the power of prayer can perform miracles.

I'm really surprised this trend hasn't gone stale yet . . .

Great, just what we need: more pseudo-Jews.

you know what every celebrity-rich, borderline cult worth its salt needs? a celebrity-rich, borderline cult mass suicide. (to prove their faith, of course)

I think this story is hilarious!

I wonder when its going to be trendy to read the Book of Mormon or the Catholic Catechism.

It amazes me that Brittney looked to the Jewish book of mysticism to get her through the trying times of marrying her backup dancer and producing videos like "Slave" and "Toxic."

Less turbulent times? Isn't she still married to that twit and now is trying to lose weight?
