Kevin may be talentless, but Britney actually has a great singing voice and she's had much more than "15-minutes of fame". She's been famous since the age of 16 and is now going on 25. But hey, you're entitled to your own opinion.
She can't sing. The only people that liked her were those who have basically no talent at all, and she looks good compared to them. She couldn't dance. Grabbing your crotch every two bars doesn't mean you're dancing. She will never be in the same status she was when she was 16. The American public isn't that stupid. Wanna-be-bad-girls with plastic boobs are old news today. The generation that loved her has gotten older and moved on to 'real' music.

How do you explain Lindsay Lohan then?

While I disagree with dvdjunkie completely, there's not much to explain about Lindsay Lohan. She's an ok actress and she has done a few hit movies, but she has no fanbase that can compare to Britney, and her music career flopped.

Britney will always be around in one way or another. It's way too late for her to just disappear, and I think people tend to greatly underestimate her star power.

It's too bad that Britney and Kevin are getting a divorce, especially since they have 2 kids, but if it's happening then it's probably for a good reason and it could end up being better for the kids in the end.
The good news is that after Kevin's CD bombed, now we won't get a follow up!

Yes. In addition to recording the theme song, "On Our Own," he played a part in the film as the Doorman who mentions, "my kid-brother wants one of those Proton packs," to which Egon responds with, "they are not toys."

There is no way to explain that.

And as far as their kids are concerned- they're filthy rich. No matter just what happens, I think they'll be okay.

Britney's original fanbase is now college-aged or older. Lohan's audience is a decade younger.

Britney, "I'm the anti-christ", attempts suicide

Post by MadonnasManOne »

I have no idea how true this is. This is the second time in a couple of days that I have heard reports that Britney has tried to kill herself.

This is from News of the World:

http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/story_p ... biz1.shtml

EXCLUSIVE

By Rav Singh & Sophy Ridge

CRAZED Britney Spears tried to HANG herself with a bedsheet before pleading with her estranged husband to give her another baby, we can reveal.
In a week of rehab madness the bonkers beauty wrote the number of the beast, 666, on her shaved head before running round the clinic screaming "I am the Antichrist!" at frightened staff.

"Later that night she tried to kill herself," a friend told us. "She attached a sheet to a light and tied it around her neck. Paramedics were called, but luckily she was unhurt."

But within days out-of-control Britney had swung from SUICIDAL to MATRIMONIAL as she told hubby Kevin Federline she wanted to take him back, renew their wedding vows and get PREGNANT.

The unpredictable 25-year-old star is now planning a new life for them and their two children in Louisiana as she sees out her stay at the Promises Clinic in Malibu, California.

A source close to the clinic said: "Britney has realised what a rock Kevin has been to her, and how out of control she has acted recently.

"She has been talking to Kevin every night for hours on the phone, telling him she still loves him.

"She just wants to be with him again, and thinks having another baby will seal their marriage.

"Britney seems much happier and has calmed down a lot. She's a completely different Britney from the beginning of the week."

Staff at the addiction clinic will be relieved.

They have struggled to cope with the unhinged beauty who has checked in and out of rehab like a yo-yo, deranged by the torment of her break-up with Kevin last year.

Her pal told us: "She is still very vulnerable. Last Saturday she said she had the number 666 written onto her bald head. She was crying, and shouting, ‘I am the Antichrist!'

"The clinic people just didn't know what to do. Then she started screaming, ‘I'm a fake! I'm a fake!' It must have been really frightening.

"When she tried to hang herself it was more a cry for help."

And Kevin has responded to it. We exclusively revealed last week that he visited her in the clinic and promised to stand by her if she cleaned up her act and got well.

Since then the father of her two children, Sean Preston, one, and Jayden James, five months, has been a regular visitor.

A source close to Britney said: "Kevin has been a real tower of strength for her and she has finally decided to give their marriage another shot.

"She thought things were over between her and Kevin after his wild partying and gambling.

"She felt he had deserted her and left her to bring up their two children on her own.

"She never even dreamed she would take him back.

"But Kevin's like a different man now. He's never been so caring before, and is really worried about Britney.

"He's been Britney's rock during her difficult time, and she wants to give him another chance.

"This week she even asked if she could have a night away from the Promises Clinic with Kevin. She's still waiting to hear if they will give her a pass so that they can go out for a romantic meal together.

"Kevin has also taken their two little boys to see their mum in rehab."

Just weeks ago the couple were bitterly fighting for custody of the two children.

Britney was pictured crazily attacking a car with an umbrella when Kevin refused to open the door and let her into his house.

Court

At one stage Britney offered Kevin £100,000 to drop a custody hearing over their two sons.

He refused the money but said he would postpone the court appearance until Britney had got herself sorted out.

Now sources say the couple have put their differences behind them and plan to renew their marriage vows as soon as Britney gets out of rehab. But while her love life is looking up, her health troubles are far from over.

It has been alleged the former pop princess's erratic behaviour has been caused by Class A drug crystal methamphetamine.

Crystal meth — which can be either snorted or injected — affects the brain and nervous system, triggering side effects like agitation, paranoia, confusion and violence.

Britney has struggled with drugs before and sources close to the rehab clinic have said she is attending sessions designed to address drug and booze problems.

Pals have claimed that they have seen her taking cocaine and ecstasy in the past.

But her behaviour has spiralled completely out of control since the beginning of the year.

She has repeatedly been photographed knickerless on wild nights out. She checked into a rehab centre in the Caribbean two weeks ago, but left after just 24 hours.

Then she went to a hair salon in California and shaved off her trademark locks.

A week ago she threatened to kill herself by gulping down two family-size bottles of painkillers.

A pal told us: "Britney held up two bottles of Tylenol (an American painkiller) and shouted, ‘I'm gonna do this, this is it! I'm through with the whole f***ing circus'."

A female friend was there and managed to talk her out of it.

"Britney was terrified Kevin would get full custody of the children after her public breakdown. She kept crying and said she would kill herself if she lost her boys," said her pal.

"She's relieved to see the end of the custody battle. Now we're all hoping that she can get her life back together."

God, I hope this isn't true. If so, it's so sad.

This is crazy. She is crazy. I pray for her to get well.

But that "AntiChrist" stuff really freaks me out.

I don't care what she does, I'm still a fan of hers. Britney is still a pop princess, and I certainly hope that she gets everything together by the time her next album is released. Hopefully this time in rehab will help her greatly. Go Britney!

If at first you don't succeed....



















Remove all evidence of ever having tried.

Come on, did you really expect me to be *that* heartless and say "try, try again!" to the poor woman? Death is not something to be taken lightly, at least not for me anymore.

I actually find this hard to believe. It's going to take a little more evidence for me to believe it.

EDIT: I just saw what website this came from, and now I really don't believe it.

Man that poor woman...I feel really bad for her...All I can do is pray for her to get well. It's still hard for me to see how she went from a cute bubble gummy teen artist to a person with such immense problems...God help her.

Britney wanting another baby? What a surprise :roll:. It seems she'll do anything to get attention. I hope she learns to calm down and not try anything stupid anymore.

I don't believe it, she's crazy, but she's not that crazy. I feel sorry for her.
