Oh Lord Look at Britney

2. While she looks better with her natural hair color,
the attitude captured by the pepperoni or whatever they call themselves still shows she's a bit too classless...

Still, tragic, when all elements are considered.

13. That can't possibly be her real hair.
That's a wig. She shaved her head a couple months ago.

Hair doesn't grow that fast.

No matter how rich you are.

keeps adopting dogs too.

Really pisses me off. I mean, on the one hand you would think the dog has it made, but on the other, I think they are probably very neglected.

Looking right now at my two 70 pound behemoths...one on the couch and one on the chair snuggling with one of the cats. I love my girls and would never carry them around in a purse...lol, as if I could!

18. I was her age when I went totally crazy from...
an untreated closed head injury. I had anxiety attacks every day for three years and was constantly depressed.

I can't imagine what it would have been like to have that broadcast to the entire world.

I think that the suicidal thoughts that I had would have been compounded.

Her life is a trainwreck.

21. Sadly someone who knows what she is going through needs to fly in like Superman and take her away ..
for some long treatment , talks and QUIET TIME. She might hate the person at first but years later when she looks back at her recovery will be looking at life differently and she will be thankful. First things first , get the hell out of Hollywood.

40. Indeed. Such a tragedy to have photos from a photoshoot posted on the internet.
While I agree that some of the comments are unkind, Britney participates in the process by behaving like a pig in photoshoots and flashing her privates where she knows there are photographers. Whether it's an official shoot or not, Ms. Spears feeds off the press as much as it feeds off of her. When or if she turns her life around, her 'comeback' will be facilitated by the same people that are focusing on her now.

You can't force it. She needs to take a damn break. Not a damn week , not a couple of months. She needs to take some years off and then she can come back strong. Because she has already had recent losses apparently and if she comes out with a new album now , it could tank and put her into a even more doom. I can't believe this is the same Britney Spears from 10 years ago. Damn. She was 18 years and on top of the pop music world.

22. I feel really sorry for her and about this.
She doesn't "look" horrible, she looks like she needs help. Her body is not in bad shape imo.

Child actors/performers do not have the life skills to handle the attention and money. She has made some bad decisions (and who hasn't?)and is behaving very inappropriately but she's in pain and very unhappy.

I look at her as "kid" who needs help. It's very, very sad - the world we live in is all about outward bs.

:(

And hasn't she been supporting her entire family for about 10 or 15 years now? That's gotta bring another level of pressure. There are also rumors that she's pregnant with her third child. I'd be in meltdown mode, too, if I were freshly divorced, the mother of two babies, estranged from my family and possibly pregnant with a third. :scared:

45. At least we see things the same way!
She's still quite young, she's got two young children with a rumor of a third on the way, she's in a custody dispute, she's fighting with her family, etc.

She's always been the breadwinner for everyone around her. It's time for her to take a break and learn what it's like to actually live instead of being someone's personal piggybank.

I'm not a fan of her music or many of her actions but I do understand a bit of where the actions come from. She needs a break and I really do think that once she's had it (and her chance to really live her life) she will be a better person.

I know, she's legally an adult; and I may not be parent of the year. But god that poor kid needs loving guidance. Her mother should be arrested for pandering her out to the trash media.

Doesn't she have a little sister who's going down the same road as Britney?

46. yeah, that marketing angle made me really uncomfortable
And some of her early, early photos make my skin crawl. I saw one of her where she was in short shorts and a top with "baby" printed on the chest, leaning over a tricycle. I kid you not. She must have been around 14. It was sick. An attorney discovered her and apparently he was guiding her career at that point. Brooke Shields was done the same way. Thanks god at least people discuss pedophilia openly now. I mean, it's one thing to say 'well those kids are physically mature' but to pose one leaning over a tricycle it's pretty obvious what demographic they were aiming for.

As I don't know about Brit before the celebrity status kicked in, it's hard to say.

But Kevin F was a real piece of work and if those kids don't get taken to proper parents, they're going to be far worse off thanks to the inability of Britney and (Kevin and any other petty wanker who's made himself a daddy.)

and obviously very troubled

it must be horrifying to be so troubled and have your life under the microscope.

That said, she is a public figure and that is what happens, it also seems that her mother was the driving force behind her stardom so in some ways she may have not ever asked to be what she became.

A stage door mother all the way. And is she reaching out to help her daughter?

Although, given that she IS going through a horrible child custody hearing, I would give her at least a little slack here. That jackass Federline skimmed her for cash and is now going to take her children away.

44. Hmmm.
First off, she looks great- I guarantee there are tons of women who wish they could look that good after having two kids.

I have to take offense at labeling her as crazy. I'm no fan of Britney, and truth be told I used to say some nasty things about her.

But this poor girl can't have a single thing happen to her without it being spread throughout the internet, on television, on every tabloid front cover. Every detail of her life is out for all of us to criticize and judge.

I'm sure she loved it back when everyone was buying her albums and she hadn't hooked up with K-Fed yet and life was great. But this shit with K-Fed, the custody battle, rumors and bad pictures and thousands if not millions judging her...

Jesus Christ, if bursting into tears and acting a little off makes her crazy, then I'm certifiably fucking insane.

53. I know that she's not very bright, but she (and all modern celebrities)...
should be quite aware that they will always be in the public glare. That's why they pay publicists and other flacks lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ to shove themselves down the public's throat. It comes with the territory. These "personalities" receive obscene compensation for the little or nothing they contribute to the world.

They possess no awe insiring talent nor are they artistic innovators. Their sole talent is playing out these formulaic mythic roles.
They are bread and circuses, but the bread is stale and the circus is fleabitten.

61. IMO, she needs someone who
will actually sit down with her, listen to what she really wants and will tell her the truth.

She needs someone who will tell her that it's ok to take a break. She needs someone to show her a different world than what she can see from a tour bus.

I'm not saying she'll ever be a genius but I think that, if the right people were around her, she'd be a different person. She seems like the kind of person who wants a change right now and doesn't know how to go about it.

64. But there's a reason that she will never have people telling her those...
necessary truths.
She is surrounded only by people whose paychecks depend upon the ongoing trainwreck of her life and career (is there any actual difference between the two?)
If the trainwreck stops, so do their paqychecks.

66. And isn't that just disgusting?
She needs help-that's obvious. And she needs just one person to trust.

It's sad that she doesn't have that. It's even sadder that her misery is turned into the world's entertainment. I'm not a fan of hers by any means but I remember that age quite well. No way I'd make fun of a young woman who still has not recovered from her last baby, whose every move is followed by the press, who has never had the chance to laugh and enjoy herself out in public.

I shake my head every single time I see or hear her name mentioned. That poor girl. If she doesn't get her act together soon those babies that she probably adores won't have a mother.

62. Pull her teeth, give her some dentures and she could be a
twin for my ultra-skanky cousin Wanda. Ugh.

Britney just needs to go back to her Louisiana home and be quiet.

70. Hey, I like this look much better than her old look
And yes, I feel really sorry for her. I've never liked Britney but I've also never understood all the hatred for her either. She was famous at an age that I was still collecting baseball cards. I really can't imagine what that must do to your mind. And then when you do have meltdowns like she is having, like many of us have had at some point in our lives, and to have it posted to the entire world? Man, it makes me want to give her hug, and no, not to cop a feel. I hope she can find some people that really care about her and take some time off, get some help, and get well. I'd really hate to see another young star die young.

71. I feel sorry for her. She needs some help.
I'm sure the stress of the drama with her mom and having it all played out on the public stage doesn't help. Yup, the girl has some serious issues. :(

73. My little brother just donated several inches of hair to a chemo society.
I ribbed him that Britney is wearing it in that pic.
