<snip> I just can’t accept that it was planned.
[/QUOTE]
It might not have been planned, but it was no more accidental than Janet Jackson’s boob making its appearance at the Super Bowl. Let me assure you that sober adult women know the public state of their private bits at all times. Now, the sober part for both of those two might be debatable…
As might the “adult”. Chronologically maybe, but developmentally?
[QUOTE=Cisco]
I would be willing to bet that she is intentionally ignoring tabloid stories about herself even more than usual right now, so when she did it the 2nd time she didn’t know yet about the 1st offense.
[/QUOTE]
Personally, I think that the crotch-shots had to be intentional. It doesn’t even look comfortable to get into a car that way. Even if the first ones were accidental, the second ones couldn’t have been. Even if she doesn’t read her press clippings, you’d think that her publicist or some friends would have told her about the photos. “Hey, I don’t mean to embarass you or anything, but I thought you should know . . .”
Britney is used to being photographed from all angles and thus I have a hard time believing that she doesn’t realize what will show in a picture.

Just a guess, but I assume he was referring to the comments about her “rolls of fat”. You know as well as anyone that anytime someone even remotely picks on someone else’s weight around here, the cries of “But s/he could have a thyroid condition!” are deafening.
[/QUOTE]
Ah! I didn’t see any rolls of fat.
As for Britney’s looks in general— I think she’s very pretty. Normal pretty. A great role-model type of pretty. She gains some weight, works at losing it. She has acne, works at not having it or hiding it. She’s not impossibly tall or thin or impossibly anything. Just a very attainable pretty.
She proves that even regular looking girls can grow up to be rich skanks. Because, weird looking twat or not, displaying it as she has is skanky.

Oh, so you’re calling me superficial? Gotcha. :rolleyes: Pretty sad when you can’t even talk about vapid celebrities without getting criticized.

I don’t think Britney’s pretty, oh how horrible I must be.
[/QUOTE]
Nah, your level of horribleness—whatever that may be----is probably incidental to your condemnation of Britney.
But having seen photos of both you and Ms. Spears, I’d just say that with all due respect, mileages do vary!

Count me in with the millions of people who take celebrity gossip as entertainment and a laugh, nothing more. I don’t think Britney’s pretty, oh how horrible I must be.
[/QUOTE]
Actually, it had less to do with any specific comments about Spears, than with your apparent obsession with the beauty and (alleged) “perfection” of yourself and your co-workers. Also your refusal to concede that, in the big picture, Spears can hardly be considered fat, and her nether regions look perfectly normal given the angle and position they were photographed in.
How would this be different if K-Fed and gone commando and “forgot” zip up the barn door? I’d image a guy walking around with his unit hanging out would stand a good chance of ending up in the pokey.
Still not looking at the BS beaver shots, by the way. That’s for the same reason I don’t want to see Screech doing the dirty sanchez.
Whenever I hear about one of the pop-tarts-du-jour acting like this, I can’t help but think that she’s someone’s daughter. From what little I know of Spears’ family, she has a mother that evidently loves her, supports her career, and a little sister that hopes to be some sort of performer someday. Those people live amongst the rest of society- see their neighbors, go grocery shopping, go to church, community events, etc. They must be mortified when their skank daughter acts in this manner. They must constantly be thinking, “everyone I encountered today knows that Britney’s my daughter (or sister, whatever the case), and they know that she’s acting like a world-class trollop.”
It must be mortifying to be related to these girls.
Meh… at least there was no string.
I wouldn’t so much say that her mother “loves her and supports her career” as “pimps her spends her money”. Her younger sister doesn’t so much “hope to be some sort of performer someday” as “currently has a show on Nickelodeon, since her mother decided to go the Hillary Duff route rather than the Tiffany route with this one”.
Like I said, I’m no fan of Brit’s, but I think most of her problems can be laid at the feet of that family you’re so worried about her embarrassing.
[QUOTE=Chronos]
I think it’s a lot more clever than that. If she took Playboy up on their offer, she’d earn multi-millions now, but the parents who buy her CDs for their teenagers wouldn’t, any more. Her future earning potential would plummet. With something like this, though, she gets nearly as much publicity as she would from a Playboy shoot, but she can still claim it was accidental, to placate the parents. Yeah, it’s a pretty thin claim, but then, so is “I wear skintight leather onstage because it’s comfortable”, and folks bought that one. Not, mind you, that I’m claiming that Ms. Spears herself is this clever, just that her handlers are.
And I’m one of those, incidentally, who thinks that she’s well below the 50th percentile in appearance. The problem isn’t her features, or her body, or for that matter, her nether regions (which look about how one would expect, given the pose and camera angle). The problem is that she hardly ever smiles. Sure, I’ll notice great breasts, or great legs, or a great butt, but all of those pale in importance compared to a great smile.

She has a thick, strong bull neck. I suspect she would be good on plow.

I read the comments on that link and I didn’t know if some of them were being facetious or not.
Do people really find neck creases sexy?

I’m not as well versed in Britney’s familial relationships as you, and I don’t know what “since her mother decided to go the Hillary Duff route rather than the Tiffany route with this one” means, but my point was this- acting like a tramp obviously has an effect on her own career, whether that effect is positive or negative. But chances are there are some relatives somewhere- evidently not her mother or sister- whose reputation and community standing will be sullied by this type of self-obsessive behavior. I can’t imagine the family that felt sincere pride at her earlier success in life feels the same way about her now.

Believe me, I’m not proud. 
Hillary Duff = Tween Actress
Tiffany = (80s) Pop Tart
Oh, I’m sure *someone’s * ashamed of her. After all, every family has it’s black sheep, and in Brit’s family, I imagine that person is the one with the brains to be ashamed of her.
[QUOTE=DianaG]
As soon as she could get clear of that woman, it was all Red Bull, Cheetos, bare feet and Federline.
[/QUOTE]
Nothing wrong with bare feet.
Cheetos are also good in moderation.
I don’t see anything wrong with Britney’s vagina as a vagina. I just think it’s abnormal in the sense that we’ve all seen it and are therefore able to offer our opinions on it.
[QUOTE=Indygrrl]
You look at that and tell me it is not grotesque. Maybe I’m fortunate enough to only see pretty pussies, but in my experience that is NOT how a healthy vagina looks. And she IS flabby, that is not an exaggeration, it is right there in front of you.
[/QUOTE]
Looks pretty much like a vagina to me. I never thought of vaginas as looking “pretty” anyway, but hers looks pretty normal. It sure wouldn’t bother me if it were on my face.

Except when they’re in a gas station rest room. The feet, not the Cheetos.
I think those pictures of Britney walking in and out of that highway gas station bathroom in her bare feet skeeved me out more than even her spreading her legs for the press.
Well, maybe, but it would help the rest of us if you’d wear a scarf or something when you go out in public.
