The lifestory of Britney Spears unravels in front of our eyes - like it or not
When someone on our family is going through some hard times, we help them and try to make things better. When Britney Spears, who has grown in front of our eyes and who we feel as though we have known her forever, goes through a nervous breakdown in front of the world, we give her hell and rejoice on her pain.
What type of society are we, that we enjoy the pain and emotional drama Britney Spears has been going through this past year?
We have seen a woman that has lost almost everything. Her family, her friends, her children. She lives in a world where everybody is commenting and criticizing on her every move and who feels that have a right to judge what she does. A world that also feels to have the solution to her problems, and who instead of feeling sorry and praying for her when it sees her being carried out in a gurney, enjoys to feed itself with the drama being documented on tabloids, gossip blogs, and entertainment shows everywhere.
When Britney Spears shaved her head, she made the number one spot on online searches of Yahoo!. When she first lost custody of her children, her single “Gimme More” soared up to number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 being her biggest hit since “Baby One More Time” in 1998. When she was admitted to a mental facility for two days, the online sales and radio airplay of her single “Piece of Me” went up considerably.
Spears needs our support more than ever. My friends and family, who have seen me grow as a Britney fan, keep on asking me If I still love her after everything that has happened. And I say, “Yes, now more than ever”. She has taught me how real she is, that even with all this talent and money and fame, she has the same issues we go through, and she has fears and hopes as we all have.
I don’t blame her for missing her court date. No one in their right mind could deal with the amount of pressure she is dealing every day. Although it seems that we all understand what should be done in her case, except Britney Spears. But I know and I trust that she will get her act up, and regain everything she has lost. America loves a comeback story, and I know deep inside, we all want Britney to get well (get help first), and come back as the Britney we all know and love, with this newfound side of realness she has gained.
On the meantime, get your old CDs and DVDs of her, and watch them, to remember what was the first reason we all got in love with her. Or listen to her best album to date, “Blackout”, in which she seems to be saying a big “F*** ***” to the critics and the courts and everything that wants to hurt her, and a big “THANK YOU” to us, her fans, that have stuck with her through good and bad times.
Now, and forever.. It’s Britney, bitch.
