Other than that... Not that i would like to repeat it. But...the ones with a bit of crazy in the eyes are rather fun...  A bit? That woman has a hint of eyes in her crazy!

Why am I homeless? Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question. They called it The Prayer, its answer was law Mommy come back 'cause the water's all gone

I got to be frank here: I think that there are a lot of ugly fucking people in this thread. I don't really mean that physically. How many of you, if I followed you around looking for pictures all day (especially when you're pretty distressed, whether for your own fault or not), wouldn't end up looking a shitload worse than most of those? Oh I know, we're pretty much the Adonis centre of the geek world here...
A couple of months ago, at least some people were saying "um, maybe this treatment of her wasn't actuallly so great, especially if she dies. Tut tut at the apalling tabloids." Girl pulls herself together just a little and it's fair game time again.
I'm no fan of identity politics, and I'm usually pretty suspicious of those who use it, but there's a crapload of misogyny going on in here.

I've been pulling for Britney for a while now. My offer to be her personal life coach is still open.

I've been calling her white trash since day 1. That doesn't even have anything to do with her looks. She's white trash. Tornado baked. The way she carries herself, that federline fuck. Woman needs to go away.
Yea, she let herself goes, but who cares. Trailer park types are not role models. Sorry.

When she crossed over, she was just a ship. But when she came back... she was bullshit!

Britney's whole schick was "I'm so sexy and I don't even know it", simulataneously temptress and virgin. And it was a good gig while it lasted, she made a lot of money. She decided that wasn't enough, she needed to make a Madonna-like transition to "fallen woman", the ex-virgin who *does* know how sexy she is and loves it. And that might have worked just as it did for Madonna, except that genetics dictated she couldn't bounce back from childbirth to a sex-pot's body without a lot of surgery *and* hard work in the gym (she may or may not have had the surgeries, she certainly didn't do the work). Since she never had any talent for anything but gyrating sensuously while she lip-synched the digitally key-corrected tape of her voice doing someone else's songs, being famous for being talented wasn't an option once being famous for being hot stopped working.
So she tried for being famous for being outrageous, but she didn't really have any skills at that, either. Now, you could point out that her mother is a horror-show, that she's been in show-business since she was in diapers and never had a childhood, etc., etc. But nothing stopped her from taking the money (or at least the residuals) and slipping back into a financially comfortable obscurity. Hundreds of other teen-age ingenues and pop stars have done exactly that, and been none the worse for wear (anyone know what Debbie Gibson or Belinda Carlisle are up to lately?). But no, we've had to watch her steady slide from overblown mediocrity to sad morality tale, because the thing she is most afraid of is that the fame is all there is for her. Yes, the tabloids and a certain subset of fans ate it up, but she went out of her way to make sure they didn't ignore her. Anyone think she just happened to forget she wasn't wearing any panties when she aimed her crotch at the camera?
There are "child star loses their cuteness" stories I can sympathize with. But Britney's isn't one.

I find a bunch of grown men getting angsty about female celebrities somehow worthwhile in and of itself.

I should get back to nature, too. You know, like going to a shop for groceries instead of the computer. Maybe a condo in the woods that doesn't even have a health club or restaurant attached. Buy a car with only two cup holders or something. -Signe

Is the white thing on her wrist a hospital tag? I know I'm doing it wrong, but it was a conscious decision to look somewhere else in the picture.

The media covers this stuff waaaay too much and I can't stand shit like Perez Hilton taking a pic of a random celeb, circling a little roll of fat in MS Paint and writing in "ugly fat whore!" That stuff is gross and smacks of woman-hating. This is just some light snark though. I don't hate Britney, I don't wish her ill, nor do I follow her exploits outside of this thread. I will however admit to having a little fun at laughing at a no-talent hack who's entire selling point is being a hot virgin / tramp.

He owns a Camaro. He has to. I'm almost positive that if you look like that, owning one is required by law.
