Britney, Britney, Britney

So I know I promised that this blog wasn't all about Britney Spears, but I just had to mention this.

I'm through with defending Britney. Here's why.

Britney was charged Friday for misdemeanor of a hit and run and driving with out a valid license. To read more on the story click my link.

This is ridiculous.

Didn't she already mess up her career with the whole VMA fiasco?

Britney Spears, VMA's and Fans

For future reference, I promise this blog isn't all about Britney's Spears, and I know that there are others celebrities out there. Britney is just a hot topic right now and she's fun to write about, so I thought I'll get her out of the way.

The VMA's was a chance for Britney Spears to make a comeback. It was a chance for her to take all of the media's cruel ridicule and harassment and toss it back in their faces. Well, we all know the outcome of that event.

Britney didn't wow us. In fact she actually succeeded in humiliating herself more than anyone thought was possible.

My question? Why did they let her perform? I know she has a album she's trying to promote, but they knew that she wasn't mentally stable at the time.

Now I know it's not only the producers fault. Britney, while she may not act like it at times, is a grown woman. She makes her own decisions, but we all know they're not always wise. For instance, partying until 4 a.m. in the morning before the big event (not so smart Britney).

But even with that in mind, did no one keep tabs on her?

Even though Britney's performance at the VMA awards wasn't at all professional, I believe we should cut her some slack. I mean the girls a wreck. She's went through a pretty nasty divorce and is still debating custody rights of her children. She obviously isn't handling it well.

People fall apart sometimes, and it's pretty sad to watch. And to all the celebrities out there who dissed her and belittled her performance (as amusing as they were), just watch. In a couple of months that will be you.

Maybe I'm just being cynical. Who knows. I do know that not many people are standing up for her. In my last blog post I said that I didn't really like her at a child (actually I kind of despised her), but now I'm feeling a little empathy for the poor child.

And with that, I'll leave you all with an amusing (and slightly bizarre) video clip of a dedicated Britney Spears fan.



So what are your thoughts on Britney's performance and her life in general?

Brittney Spears

I'd like to take the time to discuss Britney Spears, in case you haven't noticed the title of this piece.

Britney Spears used to be a sweet household name. Sure you had some people scorn her name at times, but, all and all ,she was at least respected. Now, however, when you say her, people, even once loyal fans, will shake their heads and roll their eyes in disgust.

What happened to her? It's a question everyone is asking.

You see her on T.V., magazines, and tabloids as this psychotic bald women. smashing in windows and partying endlessly.

Her ex-husband Kevin Ferderline isn't much better than her. Whenever you see him in the news, he's either partying or trying to get some more from her money. Recently People magainze published an article about how Ferdeline is accusing Brittney of child abuse and is trying to get custody of the kids. Here's a preview of the article http://www.people.com/people/article/0,26334,1556996,00.html

But is it really legit? Recent reports say that Ferderline is running low on cash with his annual income of approximately $20,000 a month (giving to him by Britney mind you), compare to Britney's $737,868. Details like this tend to blur the "good father" facade that Ferderline is just now showing. Now that Britney is expected to cut him off, where else would he get his cash flow. They have been divoreced for a while now, so why is he just now concerned with his children. No one knows for sure what goes on behind close doors at Britney's house. We can only speculate. However, I do know that placing the kids in the hands of Ferderline will probably caused the kids to become new Paris Hiltons and Lindsey Lohans.

I believe what happened to Britney is a shame. Growing up, I didn't really like her music, because I thought it was whiney and superficial. Now however, she can be thought of, very loosely, as the 'modern Michael Jackson.' Once, praised and respected by millions, and now the laughing stock of the nation.

Maybe she'll redeem herself at the MVA. Or not.
