Chewed Up and Spit Out

A personal story in the experience: I Feel Sorry For Britney Spears
T he same media frenzy that created her stardom is now drooling over the opportunity to eat her alive.  It's so sad that people get some sort of enjoyment out of the suffering of someone, especially an individual who has no privacy for the last 7 or 8 years. 

This and the Anna Nicole fiasco seem to prove that there is a large and profitable market in America in exploiting women for their appearance, making goddesses out of them, and then throwing them away when they have either cracked or some new, more marketable and better manipulated individual comes along.  So long as people keep feeding the beast, so long will there be people who are chewed up and spit out.

You ******* mental reject. The problem doesn't lie with the media it's inherent in people like you. Britney Spears wouldn't let you lick the **** out of her *** and now you're here trying to protect her. It's morons like you that put these people on some pedestal, as to say they're better than anyone else only to get your feelings hurt when you realize they are actually human. You ******* wasteoid, you don't deserve a public opinion. You're an ***!!!!

Hey she seems to be doing alright. Just released a new album and it's doing pretty well. Her father has taken over and she's living by some rules and standards now. Still doesn't have custody of the kids and that's probably a good thing.
I don't feel sorry for media darlings. They get into this business knowing what's out there these days. You want people to buy millions of your CD's, go to all of your concerts and watch your every move and hang on your every thought and then you demand privacy. Brittney has been paid millions only the job is much more than just looking sexy when you want to look sexy. Don't feel sorry for her.

IT would helped if they used their brains,nothing against women,but lets face it these people are not scoring high on an iq test.i'm so messed up i can't handle all this fame and constant attention,and bales of money for just looking good.at some point they could say enough and get out,but they don't they crave the attention,if you couldn't handle the fame,you should have gotten out.don't think to many people who have to bust it for a living are going to loose much sleep over mrs or miss or ms spears.when shes 50 she'll be going after someone to pay attention to her...

I seem to recall a season 12 South Park episode called "Britney's New Look" that parodied exactly what you're feeling here. you should check that episode out, that is if you're okay with South Park's style of humor.

Actors should do what other survivors before them have done...work in the scene...play the game and get the **** out until the next time. Don't stand around and get sucked in by that vortex...unless of course you've got nothing to lose.

It is a lesson for the girls who feel proud getting paid and being adored for their beauty.
