Spears 'not facing' child probe

Singer Britney Spears and husband Kevin Federline will not be investigated after child protection officers visited their home, her lawyer has said. "They determined that the parents were not involved in any injury and nothing improper was done in the home," said Marty Singer on behalf of the couple. He added that the Department of Children and Family Services concluded that there was "no problem". Malibu police confirmed that Spears' home was visited on Saturday. Police visited Spears' in February after photos showing her driving with her baby son on her lap were published. The 24-year-old singer later said it was a "mistake", but insisted she was reacting against pursuing paparazzi photographers at the time. The Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services and the sheriff's station declined to give details of Saturday afternoon's visit. "It's a very standard, routine patrol request," said Debra Glafkides, from the sheriff's department. "We just roll out with them. We stood by, we took no action, no report or anything."

Supermodel Kate Moss is depicted in a contorted yoga pose in a life-size bronze statue, due to go on display in the Netherlands. The sculpture, entitled Sphinx, sees Moss with her ankles and arms wrapped behind her ears. It is the first of five statues of Moss by Marc Quinn, who says the model share the Egyptian Sphinx's "mystery". His nude statue of pregnant disabled artist Alison Lapper is on a plinth in London's Trafalgar Square. A model posed for the yoga position, with Moss visiting Quinn's studio to have her hands and feet cast. The Moss statue will go on show at the Groninger Museum in Groningen later this month, before the full set is displayed in New York. A portrait of model Moss by artist Lucian Freud sold for $7.29m at auction in February 2005. Police are continuing to investigate allegations that Moss used cocaine, following allegations published in a newspaper last September.
