Britney Getting Real for TV Series
Tue Apr 13, 5:55 AM ET
By Andrew Wallenstein
NEW YORK (Hollywood Reporter) - Is broadcast television ready for Britney Spears (news)? Representatives for the pop princess are shopping a reality series featuring backstage footage of her life on tour, according to sources.
Being pitched with the pun-style title "OnTourage," the series would follow the lives of Spears and her fellow dancers on the upcoming European leg of the Onyx Hotel Tour, her steamy concert series. "OnTourage" is being described as a cross between MTV's "The Real World" and 1991's "Madonna (news - web sites): Truth or Dare." Spears would narrate and even wield a digital camera to chronicle her adventures with her dancers, bodyguards and managers from the tour bus to the stage.
The six-week shoot would produce six episodes that Spears' team would hope to have on the air as early as the summer, presumably providing a boon to the already healthy ticket revenue she is generating. No word on whether any particular network is close to a deal, but the front-running network will have to act fast: Spears' European tour kicks off in London on April 27. Another potential hitch: The budget is projected to run north of $1 million per episode, which is expensive by unscripted standards.
Reps for Spears, who would serve as an executive producer, declined comment late Monday.

She's just becoming trashy now. Whatever respect I had for her is gone.
I never had any respect for her, so it's easy enough not to watch. Now my only complaint is that she won't go the fuck away.

Having a reality show is considered trashy now?

no...Britney being my age and making out with a woman my mom's age when she's not really a lesbian is considered trashy...
having a reality show is considered just another way of saying "look! look at what a big media whore i am!!!"
which just goes to prove my thesis: Britney is a stupidface :cool:

Well, knowing Britney, it'll be sex, sex, sex. Plus, this is one of maaannnyyy trashy things Britney has done. Instead of some actual substance, the doc/reality show will just exploit Britney even more.

I like Brit but what do we NOT know already? The press & the media hounds her 24/7 so WHY is a show needed in the first place? Is she gonna be a smarter version of Jessica Simpson?

Britney's have had tons of tour documentary's (her latest on DVD called Stages) and it was a calm day-in-a-life of Britney. No clubs, no big extravanganza, just Britney walking around quietly, thinking and writing,(This was right after her break up with Justin) and prepping for the tour. Nothing 'dirrrrrrty' or 'slutty.' People just like to talk, and if you don't like her, don't watch it. I bet ya she'll be laughing herself to the bank.

nobody said they were going to be watching it...you're the one who keeps asking why everyone thinks this is going to be trashy.
if you like Britney that's fine...but don't get defensive whenever you ask a question and someone gives you an answer you don't want to hear.
as i've said before, these are OPINION forums...if you don't agree with someone else's opinion that's cool but it's not cool to tell someone they're wrong or stupid just because they don't agree with you.

I wasn't aiming the "People just like to talk, and if you don't like her, don't watch it. I bet ya she'll be laughing herself to the bank." to blankpage, so I wasn't being defensive. Blankpage gave his 2 cents in, and I give my 2 cents in too. I'm not getting 'defensive'. If I bash someone repeadetly without making any true fact, I HIGHLY doubt you would nod your head and say 'I respect that.'
And I think you have a weird clue of an opinion. This is a respectful opinion:
"I think Kill Bill was an okay movie, nothing to get excited about. I'm not into the whole violence thing.'
This is a flame, something that I don't find respectful:
"Kill Bill sucks. It's a terrible movie, people need to get over it. The acting is atrocious, everything is stupid and made up."
Get it?

Xandrew, I doubt that she'll be doing much "thinking or writing". Maybe she'll be coloring her coloring book, but that about it.
What I cant stand about these celebrities is that they always fuckin complain about the paparazzi and how they never have any privacy, but then they go and get a fuckin reality show that follows them around 24/7.....Jesus fuckin Christ! The hypocrisy!

Well,
Get Your Pictures Taken at an inconveint time and the annoying people that are taken YOUR pictures are getting paid for it...
OR..
People with your permission following you and you're getting paid for it.
Which would you rather choose? ;)

Small price to pay for fame. Celebs always whine about their privacy when they're the hot ticket, but they aren't complaining about the money.

Dude, she wasn't serious. 'Stupidface' was totally appropriate in this situation, since I doubt she would waste her best insults on Britney Spears. If you think that's the best she could come up with, you don't know JoBlo's resident Bellucci.
And speaking of Ms. Spears...she can ditch this reality TV nonsense and hop on MY bandwagon.

That's true syxx. But if Andrew overreacted, so did darch:

:rolleyes:
Andrew might've very well meant his "my IQ just dropped" comment in good-humor. Certainly struck me that way.
Let's keep on topic. I just posted this because everyone was ganging up on andrew.
Now! Back to the incredible talking mannequin . . .
