Britney Spears was derailed yet again in her struggle to get her life

back on track, losing custody of her two sons to ex-husband

Federline. A Los Angeles court commissioner Friday gave sole physical

and legal custody of the former couple's two boys to Federline and

suspended the troubled pop star's visitation rights.

Spears was hauled away from her home to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center

by paramedics a day before, after police had to intervene when she

refused to return the children to Federline.

Hospital spokeswoman Simi Singer wouldn't confirm or deny reports in

entertainment media that Spears would be held for 72 hours for

psychological evaluation.

Commissioner Gordon ordered another hearing to be held Jan. 14.

Federline had been awarded temporary custody of 2-year-old

Preston and 1-year-old Jayden because Spears has defied court

orders, resulting in limitations on her visitation.

The 26-year-old pop star remained hospitalized Friday.
