Yeah right and wrong are easier to define than normal:)
Yeah they are, because right and wrong is what got her in this mess. If she isn't "normal" to see what's right and what's wrong and she isn't on drugs but is mentally ill, that doesn't excuse anything having to do with her losing her kids. Mothers have killed their kids from being seriously mentally ill and not "normal" so I'd rather see Britney's kids taken from her god forbid she goes completely over the edge.
Not sure if your point about being normal is that all of us have a bit of crazy in us and that is true but some obviously have alot more then others and this is an extreme example of someone losing it.
I don't have an opinion on scientology, I don't pay attention to it quite honestly.

WOW this is some news.
I'd bet VR would state they are going on a hiatus rather then breaking up. I think they will keep all options open. No wonder Slash has been in so many commercials 
jk

I dunno about the CD intro. That surely makes the whole song. I be willing to wager that the public would like that, people like a great build up to a song. Look at Jungle. Granted it's not Jungle and I don't want to get into comparisons but I'd say that CD without the buildup imo wouldn't be as strong of a song. I never really liked CD all that much until that build up.

Seven wrote:well if the Scientology rumor is true she is now out of the general public or any man's hands and is being indoctrinated. She now has a powerful support group that will protect and isolate her for better or worse... it is probably the only way to play "the game" at the level it has been taken too...So if that is the case that is that we will be seeing a lot less of Britney...All I can say positive at this point is at least she wont be drugged to death and if Federline has any weakness it won't be long before you see it as they will choose her attorneys moving forth. Lovely blue buildings filled with the indoctrinated slaves of the rich, that usually don't make the Hollywood tour like the Celebrity center does...
Wow, I must really be behind on my Britney BS. I didn't hear anything about the Scientology thing.
All I know is that this chick needs some time away from all this crap if she's going to live.
Definitely agreed.
Seven, I have no definition of Normal but I do know what's right and wrong and the way she treated those kids are wrong, the way she handles herself is wrong, throwing a fit breaking a court order is wrong, constantly seeking out the Paps to keep her celebrity up is wrong in her situation. As far as her being out of the public because Tom Cruise is reaching out to her, I don't think so...ummmm check it out

While all of this talk of selling out, commercialism and integrity is going on, the Harley Davidson company crosses my mind... not sure why though.
Karma, that's very true. Plus today I just heard an advert for a video game using PC.

Until I see article that relays this news, I have no opinion on that. Anyhow, he has proven he is very capable of taking care of those kids and his other kids regardless who he has sex with.
Better then neglecting them as she's done and worse.
I gotta say I've never heard anything like that story being referenced here either.
I happened to be talking to my husband and he heard of this, he said that this rumor came about when Britney cut off all ties to her mother and Kfed let her see the kids so the tabloids started photographing them and this rumor came about. Not all that hard to believe that he let her see the kids. So I don't believe this rumor to be true, that'd be like saying I am having sex with my fatherinlaw cuz I am out with him and my kids.
Bottom line, anyone can say this rumor to be true but wouldn't Britney's lawyers bring this up in court if it were true when fighting for custody but if you really want to call a spade a spade, how about having britney going out with no underwear on and being photographed and getting drunk and picking up strange men and partying, yeah that's a moral parent.
She's at best a drug at worst she's insane and lost her mind, either way she's lost it.

Backslash wrote:I don't get this "artistic integrity" vs. "selling out" bullshit that people go on about. People go into the music business for money and fame above all else. If GNR or anyone else got into it to be artists and relay a message, we'd have never heard of them, plain and simple. In any event, they released music to appeal to the masses for fame and fortune. Instead of becoming a broke has-been, Slash has chosen to embrace his celebrity and earn money in the process. What's wrong with that?
I'd say the love for music is the triggering factor for pursuing a musical career. The other shit is of course a big draw for most, but in the end it is secondary. At least it should be (that one's for you Gene).
I accept that every artist needs to make compromises. I don't expect them to be supermen. World is what it is. The line is drawn at necessity. Do you need to make commercials? Do you need to make a fool of yourself with Bill Gates? No, I absolutely don't think so.
Bottom line, all of them are guilty of artistic compromise. But while some seem to have a somewhat conscious relationship to it, others take just about anything they get thrown.
Nowadays you have to do this sort of thing to make money, Duff said it himself in an interview when he talked about "selling out". Times are a changing and this is what some musical artists choose to do to keep up with the lost revenue.
I see nothing wrong with it, I tell ya I wouldn't be surprised to see Slash and his family the next reality show on VH1 and knowing me, I'd watch it. That may be going a bit far but selling out is a thing of the past, it has nothing to do with integrity nowadays, so people hate Ozzy because he did the first reality show about a rock family? I don't think so.

I never heard the rumor of her mother supposidly having sex with Kfed. I tried looking it up didn't find anything. If you have a link that'd be great just because I feel compelled to read the article. I don't damn her but what I do damn is that she does this to herself and people feel sorry for her and think that those kids should be with her. Regardless of how anyone deals with trauma, she's a grown up now and she needs to take care of herself as she proclaimed that she always wanted to do. Having your kids taken away should be rock bottom but as we see in the tabloids, she's out and about except for going to her deposition to try to get those kids back.
Fucked up if you ask me and you can't blame the father for not wanting his kids with her. I wouldn't want my kid with someone like that, that's for sure and anybody that would, would be crazy. Here's the thing, either she gets help or she will continue to be ridiculed as much as she is now.
If she's hurting, she needs to accept help, instead of acting like a rebellous teenager and start acting like an adult and get herself together, plenty of people celebrity or not get themselves help.

She was treating her kids bad and doing this long before they took them from her. They should have took them from her sooner then they did. Definitely we agree to disagree on this subject, whether she is on drugs or not, or just having a mental breakdown for about a year, then she needs to do something about it. Feeling sorry for her when she created this mess to me is rediculous. It's people like this that feed her behavior and deem it somehow acceptable.
When they took her to the hospital that night, they held her on a mental case but it was never deemed 100 percent yes or no that she was or wasn't on drugs.
I have no clue what she is doing on the charts but I can tell you it's not block busting like she once was.
As far as NIN, yes they do fill arenas, one of my friends is a huge NIN fan.
Anyhow as far as Hollywood being toxic, hasn't it always been, look at Judy Garland and Marilyn Monroe.
Look at Motley Crue and the excess that happened to them as well as other bands that have gotten caught up in it. Fame is toxic if you don't know how to handle it.
