Britney went crazy and shaved her head. Eddie went crazy and shaved his head. Britney is an alcoholic that goes through rehab centers like Rosie O' Donnel goes through Super Sized Triple Quarter Pounder with cheese meals. Eddie has been in and out of rehab for decades and still drinks and does drugs. Britney's spouse dumbped her. Eddie's spouse dumped him.
It's karma baby. Britney is Ed's lost soul. He needs to get something going with her. For once, as Ed likes to say, someone "get's it!"
