Britney inspires CSI character

CSI: Miami writers were inspired by Britney Spears's recent troubles and a character based on the popstar will appear in an upcoming episode. A rep for CBS confirmed that Spears's stay in rehab influenced "a small part in the episode," which centers around an actor who is killed during a stint in rehab. While investigating the death, the CSI team comes across a starlet who has shaved her head.
