Well, whose fantastically idiotic idea was it to let Britney Spears out of the hospital? Here’s the latest updates:

Around 4:40 p.m. PT, a little over an hour after Britney Spears and her caravan of paparazzi pulled into the Beverly Hills Hotel, the troubled singer’s boyfriend, photographer Adnan Ghalib, was spotted arriving at the posh palace in his Mercedes convertible and being rushed up to Britney’s room by security guards.

Adnan’s arrival puts to rest, for the moment at least, rumors that Brit was planning on meeting her “friend” Sam Lutfi at the hotel. Last Friday, a restraining order was issued against Sam, who claims to control all aspects of Britney’s life, forbidding him from having any contact with the singer.

UPDATE: At 4:47 p.m. PT, six LAPD officers arrived at the hotel. According to sources, the police are awaiting the arrival of Britney’s parents with the intention of taking the pop star back to the hospital.

UPDATE: At 5:05 p.m. PT, an LAPD officer confirmed to OK! that Britney was secreted out of the Beverly Hills Hotel in Adnan’s car. While there is much speculation that she will be returning to the hospital tonight, the police would neither confirm nor deny this rumor. Minutes later, the pair were spotted driving along Santa Monica Blvd.

UPDATE: Around 5:20, Britney and Adnan arrived at a office building on Santa Monica Blvd. Adam Streisand, the lawyer who Brit tried to hire over the weekend, has an office in that building and it’s believed that’s where the pair are now.

UPDATE: Sources tell OK! that sometime around 7:00pm PT, Britney managed to sneak out of Streisand’s office building and return to the Beverly Hills Hotel! According to the source, a paparazzo from Adnan’s former agency FinalPixx snuck them out of the building by hiding Adnan and Brit under a black blanket in the back of his car.

Back at the Beverly Hills Hotel, several of the police who were there earlier remain on the grounds as do a number of bodyguards who are keeping watch in the hotel’s parking garage.

UPDATE: Shortly before 9:00pm PT, Brit’s father Jamie Spears arrived at the Beverly Hills Hotel. According to eyewitnesses, Jamie has talked to the hotel’s concierge and is currently waiting in the lobby. “He looks very tired,” one witness tells OK!. “It looks like he just wants someone to help him out.”

A few minutes later, Jamie was approached by the concierge and a pair of men who may have been plainclothes police officers or hotel security officials, who led him to a private conference room, where Brit’s father showed them what appear to be legal documents. Sources are telling OK! that Jamie is likely asking for the hotel’s cooperation in getting his daughter back to her home.

UPDATE: Around 9:20pm PT, more police arrived at the Beverly Hills Hotel and begin gathering in the lobby, outside in the valet parking area and upstairs on the second floor of the hotel, where sources tell OK! Britney and Adnan are currently holed up.

UPDATE: At 9:30pm PT, Jamie Spears entered Britney’s room with what is believed to be legal documents in his hand. Meanwhile, down in the hotel’s private parking garage, a number of hotel guards are keeping watch on Brit’s Mercedes.

UPDATE: Midnight: Sources confirm to OK! that Britney and Adnan have been taken home by the same X17 photographer who drove Brit to the hotel earlier in the day. Brit’s car remains in the hotel’s garage while Adnan’s is driven by an associate to the offices of his former photo agency.
