Britney Spears looks fabulous in fuchsia as she enjoys a day by the pool

Enjoying a well-earned month off from her gruelling world tour, you'd expect Britney Spears to want some time out of the spotlight and fade into the background.

But there was no danger of the singer going unnoticed as she spent a relaxing day in a Los Angeles hotel yesterday, wearing a bright fuchsia bikini.



After touring for an impressive six months, it unsurprising the 27-year-old is looked toned and svelte.

The mother-of-two was impossible to miss in her hot pink two-piece as she and a female friend spent the afternoon at the five star Ritz Carlton Hotel in the LA seaside suburb of Marina Del Rey.

Clearly enjoying a taste of the good life, Britney sipped on cocktails and snacked on strawberries as she lay back on a sunlounger.

Rather unwisely, it appeared the star was attempting to boost her light tan with a bottle a baby oil.

When the sun went behind a cloud, Britney and her friend jumped into the hotel's jacuzzi in a bid to warm up.

But before she took the plunge, Britney removed the diamond ring she has been wearing on her engagement finger in recent weeks.

The new gem has sparked reports the singer is engaged to her manager boyfriend Jason Trawick, who she has been enjoying a low-key relationship with for over a year.

However, the National Enquirer claimed this week that Jason had ended their romance because he wasn't ready to move in together when she suggested it.

A source said: 'It was just too fast, too soon for Jason. He told Britney repeatedly that he would never marry, but she refused to believe him.'



Britney has been enjoying a month off after wrapping the first part of her The Circus... Starring Britney Spears tour in Berlin on July 26.

She is set to resume her concert in Hamilton, Canada on August 20, before finally wrapping the tour in Australia in November.
