Recent news from the world of environmentally friendly celebrities informs us that singer and “X Factor USA” judge Britney Spears was spotted behind the wheel of a Mercedes-Benz Smart car only this past Sunday.

Sources say that it has been quite a while since Britney Spears was last seen driving, and that those who know her closely stand to be a bit surprise by her latest choice of vehicles.

For those unaware, the Smart cars put on the market by Mercedes-Benz are made from 100% recyclable body panels and similar environmentally friendly parts, which is why some people are now wondering whether or not Britney might have decided that the time has now come for her to go green.

From where we stand, if it is indeed true that Britney Spears has chosen to embrace a more environmentally friendly lifestyle, the news in welcome indeed.
