Nothing is what it seems.” Pictures of the 44-year-old “Toxic” singer from Thursday circulated showing her throwing her head back and stretching her arms across the roof of a vehicle as cars continued moving around her. A source told The Daily Mail that Spears popped through the sunroof “for a quick moment” to check out the Los Angeles traffic while the cars were at a standstill. “She is having a fun summer and is happy, she is in a good place,” the source said. Spears has faced increased scrutiny following her March DUI arrest in California. She was also seen driving erratically after a night out with a friend a few months prior. In April, the singer voluntarily checked herself into rehab, and then left in less than a month.
