Is this what Britney Spears meant when she wrote on her Web site last month, “I look forward to a new year and a new me”?

According to the New York Post and the New York Daily News, the singer collapsed in the VIP area of Pure nightclub in Las Vegas on New Year’s Eve and needed to be helped from the nightclub just before 1 a.m.

“Everyone was talking about it,” an onlooker tells Us.

Before she was escorted out of Pure, Spears, 25, counted down to midnight inside the club and said, “Happy f—king New Year. What happens in Vegas always stays in Vegas!” Then she headed upstairs to the club’s balcony and drank out of a Dom Pérignon bottle, says a witness.

A Pure spokesperson denies the collapse, as does a Spears’ rep, who tells Us, “she traveled to Las Vegas on a tour bus with her children and was exhausted.”

Spears' manager, Larry Rudolph, told the Associated Press, "By about one o'clock, she was just done, so we took her out. She was not drunk. She was just tired and falling asleep."

The incident, which was picked up by gossip blogger Perez Hilton, capped off an eventful week.

After spending Christmas at home in Louisiana, Spears and her pals headed to a spa in Scottsdale, Arizona. On December 29, they hit the Jackrabbit Supper Club – where she chatted up NFL quarter back – and former Paris Hilton beau – Matt Leinart.

“They were flirting,” says a source. Adds another, “Paris is going to be pissed.”

No more than Leinart’s on-and-off girlfriend Brynn Cameron, who gave birth to the couple’s son in October. Says a source, “Brynn is not happy. But it was a one-time occurrence.”
