Britney Spears met up with Mel Gibson over the weekend.

BRITNEY SPEARS, who seems to be on the road to recovery after two recent hospitalizations, dined with none other than actor/director/producer MEL GIBSON last night in Studio City, CA.

Britney, wearing sunglasses and a green shirt paired with jeans and boots, and Mel dined along with friends at Romanov restaurant. Both were exclusively caught on tape entering and exiting by www.hollywood.tv.

"We heard they hit it off and that Britney seemed excited," a source inside the restaurant told People magazine.

There was no word on what the purpose of the dinner meeting might have been.
