Britney Spears' Not-So-Tweet Hacker

Even during the height of her head-shaving, umbrella-wielding phase, it's doubtful Britney Spears would have left a lewd message for her fans about her girly parts.
Someone has clearly hacked into the Circus star's Twitter account.
Her previous post was about loving Japan. This one, however, had a more (disgusting) anatomical bent.
The "Womanizer" wonder wasn't the only one hit by this recent security collapse on the social networking site. Unlikely tweets keep popping up among VIP members.
Barack Obama, who hasn't posted since Election Day, left a message wondering what you thought of him. If you clicked and took the survey, you could win a gas card!
Fox News noted that "Bill O'Reilly is gay," and CNN's Rick Sanchez said he's "high on crack and might not be coming in to work today."
Not surprisingly, Twitter staffers have removed the offensive messages.
"A number of high-profile Twitter accounts were compromised this morning, and fake/spam updates were sent on their behalf," the company says in a notice on the site. "We have identified the cause and blocked it. We are working to restore compromised accounts."
The company was reportedly struck with its first major phishing attack this weekend.
