Britney Spears is being investigated for possible child abuse, it has been reported.
It is suggested the LA County Department Of Children And Family Services (DCFS) is looking at allegations of poor dental hygiene, eating and sleeping.
The authority is said to be "conducting an active investigation" though there is no suggestion of physical harm.
US showbiz website TMZ also suggests her ex Kevin Federline may be behind the investigation. He is currently in a legal custody battle with Spears.
The website states: "Curiously, although the DCFS keeps these allegations secret, they ended up in legal papers filed today by K-Fed's attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, suggesting it might have been Fed-Ex himself who lodged the complaint."
