When Britney Spears was recently hospitalized for 5150, UCLA Medical Center sent a memo to their employees warning them not to look at her medical records. However now Los Angeles Times is reporting that the temptation was just too much for at least 13 employees who are in trouble for looking at Britney Spear's confidential medical file.

"It's not only surprising, it's very frustrating and it's very disappointing," said Jeri Simpson, the Santa Monica hospital's director of human resources.

"I feel like we do everything that we possibly can to ensure the privacy of our patients and I know we feel horrible that it happened again."

Simpson said UCLA treats celebrities "all the time and you never hear about this."

"I don't know what it is about this particular person, I don't know what it is about her," she added.
