You may know this week’s PEOPLE magazine cover girl Britney Spears as a pop icon and mother, but did you know she is quite the power shopper? Last Friday, Britney spent $5000 in 30 minutes at celeb-fave Intuition in Los Angeles. (That’s a girl after our own heart!) She was so enamored with her purchases that she even wore her new Jano by Anja Flint purse out of the store (left) along with her new

And even though this is Britney and Kevin’s second baby together, they can both still use some help– Britney picked up New Mom and Dad hospital essential kits for each of them! Intuition, 10581 W. Pico Blvd., Los Angeles, CA, (310) 234-8442

How low did the scantily-dressed star go this time (with a one being Congresswoman conservative, and a ten being ready for her video vixen close-up)? Let’s check it out:

Exhibit A: Outside Her Hotel in Miami on a Stop for the “Adventures of Mimi’ Tour
Okay, I’ll admit it: I’ve worn an outfit like this . . . when I was 12! In other words, Ms. Carey has once again been shopping in the Juniors section, although at least this time she refrained from buying one size too small. For keeping everything covered, I give her a 5—but by adding sky-high platforms and big hair to a look that’s meant to be sweet and innocent, she pushes up the meter to a 7. On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate Mariah’s oh-factor in this look? Let me know! – Galina Espinoza
