London, Feb 3 (IANS) Britney Spears, undergoing treatment in the psychiatric ward of a Los Angeles hospital, has been dropped as host of a lavish Beverly Hills St. Valentine's Day gift party because organisers fear she's too ill to attend.
Danish businessman Claus Hjelmbak asked the singer to host the party at Scandinavian Style Mansion last month and was delighted when Spears agreed. But now he has rescinded the invitation.
Contactmusic.com quoted him as saying: 'I personally feel that the most important thing for her now is to focus on her health and get the help she needs and deserves.'
'Britney is not being fired, nor is she deemed unfit for the role as a host. I have decided to give some of the proceeds from the sales of VIP passes to a charity of Britney Spears' choice,' added Hjelmbak.
