Ok so yeah she cant sing all that great and she does dress a little to provacative for your grandmothers taste, and at times it does seem like she's losing her mind. however all the she's a slut and a whore and a whatever, isnt it a bit much. Yes we are bombarded with her day and night 24/7 But you have to give credit where credit is due. There arent many people out there with as much drive and, call it what you will but this is what im going to call it, "charisma" like her's. As i said befre she cant sing all that great, but what makes a popstar is much more than weather or not you can sing to the high heavens. ( look at mrs christina's career, if she doesnt do something drastic and i mean drastic, she will go the way of many a great songbirds such as lisa fisher, god forbid phylis hyman) Britters there has been working since she was just a litte thing. Not to mention that ever since she came out it's pretty much been on a fast track. Studio, Promote, Tour. Video, Video, Video, rinse, Dry , Repeat, Add two books here and a movie there let simmer for almost a decade. It may seem like a playing, Pun semi intended, Devils advocate, But like i said i do believe in giving credit where credit is due. It's just my opinion that the majority of people who moke celebs like brit, christina , even , lord i cant belive im saying this Hilary duff, Thoses people propably couldnt get through a year in there shoes.

like i said just my opinion.

I doubt britney spears gives a shit. Shes got tons of money and fame.

in my eyes:
1) she's talentless except for the dancing,
2) she's not sexy or remotely attractive.


So what's there to like about her?

She's a hard worker, I guess.

Sadly, as her looks start to fade, so will her career.

Well, she put it all upon herself. People bash everyone and everything, so I don't feel to bad for Brittney.
I hate her music, and I especially hate all the boring publicity she's been getting.

It's getting old and hopefully her, and it, will fade away real fast.

my point was give credit where credit is do. it's not about her looks or how much publicity she gets. just aknowlege the fact that she isnt where she is by as they say looking pretty alone.

and yeah she probably doesnt care

are you fucking KIDDING me??? the ONLY reason she's where she is now is because men like to spank to her and little girls think she's a grown-up Barbie doll.

she gets no credit from me; she can't sing worth a shit, she lip synchs during concerts and she's rude to the media and her fans, not to mention there are dozens of girls out there waiting for a break who are much more talented (and in my opinion, much better looking) than she is.


britney spears can kiss the fattest part of my ass.

spears is your classic example of an attention whore

if her advisors told her to take a break (like it says in a previous thread in this forum) then they agree with my statement, this girl brings about all the bullshit by doing stupid ass stuff

Well, I absolutely despise Britney Spears. She's a whore, slut, bitch, and any other name you can think of. She may have been blessed with good looks, but she wasn't blessed with talent. She can't sing for shit, or do anything worthwhile or impressive for that matter. And besides all that, she's quite annoying, and will do anything to draw attention from the media and public.

No talent, had good looks but that faded.

if it were you in Britney Spears shoes, people would bash you the same if not more. Its just how the world is. Nobody is loved by everyone. Britney could careless....she's rich. I wouldnt care less either if i was rich and never had to work another day in my life. I respect anyone who has the luck or balls to be able to achieve their dreams and get paid shit loads of money for it whether it be Will Smith, Tom Cruise, Britney Spears or Pee-Wee Herman. .....that dont mean i cant bash them every now and then though ;)

I don't like her music (except for the odd tapping of the odd toe to the odd tune on the odd occassion when my guard is down). But it's still totally beyond me what she's done to deserve HATRED. There are celebs who i'll admit to disliking. Mildly. But for me to really hate someone they would have to do something really horrible to me personally or have committed some sort of actual crime (being successful and almost talentless is not a crime...it's luck). You'd think the way some of you act about Britney (and her ilk) that she'd been coming round every morning for the last year to shit in your cornflakes (if she's been doing this i'm going to require some photographic evidence). :D

Seriously...let's get some perspective.

Osama Bin Laden = worthy of hatred

Britney = worthy of mild contempt at best

Perhaps it's just a bad attack of the green eyed monster that's to blame for this sort of behaviour.

RE:

Not sure what you mean with this? Are you thinking of Britney as "better" than Aguilera? Aguilera can sing circles around Britney. She has actual talent to back up her career (Better songs too, IMHO). Also, where as Britney has become increasingly slutty with her look, Aguilera has cleaned up a lot and seems to have a much better focus on her life. Where as Britney has a tendency for random relationships and quickie marriages, Aguilera has been dating the same man for almost two years and just recently got engaged with him. Aguilera is also smart enough to keep her personal life out of media. I wonder how many people actually know that she has been living in the same relationship for years?

I'm not too familiar with Lisa Fisher or Phylis Hyman, but after giving a quick check they don't sound too bad. Both worked much longer than Britney has so far, and both received high praise for their work as mature and serious musicians. If this is the way Christina is going to go, then good for her.

You can't build a long career by being a teenybobber idol. I think Aguilera understands this. Unlike Britney, she also has the talent and arguably credibility to succeed as a more mature musician. After 10 years I don't think Spears will be around anymore, but Christina might.

geez, she makes a statement about taking a break and being overexposed and people still complain about her....for some out there in cyberspace, britney bashing has become a full time job

who wouldn't want that type of recognition, money, fame and prestige? I admit, as a semi-talented musician and wannabe writer, I certainly am jealous of the success...

So she's overexposed. And she says she's tired. So she's going to take a break.

So now she's being shit on for saying she's going to take a break.

I'm only jealous of the buttloads of cash she gets for being who she is. I can still think she's untalented, tasteless, skanky, obnoxious and mean. I can think that she treats fans, reporters, and paparazzi alike as if she was born to walk on them. I can think she's setting a very slutty example for her tween fanbase. I can also think she's a hypocrite for her behavior. (I.E. "I'm a virgin, I don't smoke, I don't drink, etc.") I can say she's ripping off her fans in concert and on the web. ($25 for a fucking letter??)

And I'd still be right without being jealous. Bashing her is second nature to schmoes because she earns it.

And yes, unlike many men here, I don't mind admitting I think she's hot. Sure she's talentless, brainless, and classless. That doesn't mean we wouldn't fork her if we had a chance.

well,i don mind britney.im very much neutral when it comes to her.and the reason for that is probably becuase i used to be her fan b4.[obviously not for her music!!!but for "her"(<--includes her body)].she seems all bubbly,jovial and girl next door-kind.n if she has to come this far with her voice,she is bloody talented and hard-working.


and there IS a reason as to why she's on tv 24/7.its because all of us are curious bout her.irrespective of us hating or loving her,all of us are curious bout wat she's gonna do next.so as the thread-starter said...gotta give credit where its due!!!!

what i was saying about aguilera in the comparison to lisa fischer and phylis hymen was that the two of them had voice's that could run circles around CHRISTINA and even though they did they both dissapeared into nothingness( literaly for one as she killed herself). I dont think christina understands the word longevity at all. she doesnt produce classy music, niether does britney, however who has worked on more albums?. the reason i dont think cristina will be around for much longer is for the plain and simple fact she does not know who to work with. (First of all please please please stop doing music with people like nelly). i was just judging on the mesure of succes for christina vs britney. There isnt a shadow of a doubt that vocaly she can sing better than britney. However christina herslef isnt doing to well with her carrer. Her records arent seeling as much that and it seems that she herself is overexposed within the music industry ( Hooking up to do a song with almost every in the industry) to make a point, her resume isnt as long a britneys meaning she hasnt had to work as hard as britney if you measure by what she's done. and it's like one of you said when your overexposed prepare for the worst. britneys taking a break to raise a family, she's not going to be making music for a long time . Now the press and the like are hounding her for that. your damed if you do damed if you dont.


on another note as for the lip-synching i have seen her perform alot of stuff live and i mean LIVE and just the the early stuff either i mean her new stuff and she does sound good not great, but good. I did hear something along the lines of she dances a whole lot and what most people dont know is that she has ashma ( i have no idea how to spell it) so she does sing live i'd say about 30% of the time. but hey if you were on tour and had 52 dates all of them about two days apart im sure there would be at least 4 or 5 times where ur just like fuck it throw on the tape.

Christina won three grammy's in the last five years including just last year for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. how many grammys has britney spears won? NONE. Every record christina has put out so far has sold over 4 million worldwide. Bear in mind that the average takehome pay from 4 million records sold after all managers and labels have been paid...the artist can expect about 2.4 million dollars and thats not including shows and touring which can easily add on another few million. So how is she not doing so well with her career? Neither one of these broads "has" to work anymore if they dont want.

the only thing britney does harder and better than her is dance. and you can find a rack of hot blondes in any dance studio that can do it better than spears...since she isnt the hottest singer i am sure u can find someone that can carry a note as well. all she has is marketing. period.....but i respect both the girls talent or not. they're living their dreams and not on internet forums like us :p

Jon, that's the kind of point my brain would make. But when I say I want to hump someone, my brain isn't the one making the calls. ;)

Besides, I'm only talking about BEFORE she starts looking Cher. Once that turd hits the fan, then, well...I'll join the bashing. Until then, I concur with Greb: fork, knife, and spoon. ;)

a large majority of the threads/posts bashing her are thinly veiled bouts of jealousy...

jezz lol animosity! she could be worse you know she could be afoul mouthed littel immature know it all like some "complicated Im not punk TODAY wannabees" we all know. Pain In Da Azz yes every album christina has put out has sold over four million copies domesticly.....alll two of them ;) While all four of brits have alll sold over 3 mill ( i say three mill because billboard hasnt updated the cirtification classes yet and wont untill december the 3 mill comes from ITZ) And quite to the contrary britney HAS one Several Grammys, however they arent the "popular" best new artist blah blah stuff, they are little technical and semi vocal awards. Adding to the fact that it pains me to see christina have to do a coheadlining tour with the ilk of mankind justin timberlake ( i think a solo tour with her would have been sooo amazing with the right direction) and its not all marketing , marketing doesnt ensure people will but into it (my case in point Sky captains: box office receipts. different fruit all together but u get the idea, marketing doesnt always insure success) So how is she not doing so well with her career? having to do a headlining tour with justin timberlake because at the time your cd isnt selling well thats how. That should NEVER happen especially for an artist with that kind of vocal power. ( you shouldnt have to sit through a 50 minute set of justin timberlake to see mrs. chrisinta belt it. and the fact that her second tour DIDNT sell out, do i really need to address this ?
