Pop star Madonna, who is famous all over the world, has further fuelled reports thet she has gone under the knife after she was snapped hiding dark bruises around her eyes with a pair of sunglasses.

And now gossip sites are speculating the singer has undergone more cosmetic treatment, after emerging from her London home on Monday (21Jan08) with bruising to her eyes and cheek.

Britney Spears  and her 35-year-old photographer boyfriend Adnan Ghalib were shopping at the Studio City store together Monday night. And Spears scanned the shelves of pregnancy tests. And that seemed very strange. Brit already has 2 children and she is currently fighting to regain visitation rights to see her two sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline, Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1. Spears had visitation rights for her sons suspended on Jan. 3 after she refused to return the boys to Federline at her home. Later there was a standoff, and Spears was sent to hospital in an ambulance. On Jan. 4, Federline was awarded sole legal and physical custody of their two boys and Spears’ visitation rights were suspended.  Spears has to make a great effort to get her boys back, or  there is a chance that they won’t see each other for a very long time
