    Default The Britney Spears debacle is a shadenfruede masterpiece.

    I tried my best to ignore it, but I am now completely fascinated by this situation as a brilliant portrait of the zeitgeist. And it completely reaffirms my innate conviction that there is no hope.

    These are my thoughts at 6am...

    i dunno about Brittany. I dont take joy in her struggles. I think media makes her situations appear much worse than they really are. I think that there is hope for her. Brittany is still young and figuring thing out.

    Schadenfreude.

    Schaden = damage
    Freude = joy or happiness

    I'm sorry for Spears at the moment and wish someone would get onto those people who brought her into such a bad position in the first place. She's been very badly advised.

    I've only heard bits and pieces, but something like she locked herself and her children in the bathroom for 5 hours, police came, she was taken away on a stretcher... she's basically having a great big meltdown and if I was her mother (did I just say that?) I would get her the hell out of LA and away from the media and just chill her the fuck out for a few years. Anyway, it's weird and creepy and I don't think kids should be famous until they've at least gone through high school.

    Did you guys hear how she was speaking in a british accent at the hospital, and then after she got out she was still using the accent. It's almost like she's developed another personality just to escape it all.

    But, that's not the last of it.

    She blew off the court hearing about the custody of her kids and has had her visitation with the kids completely revoked until further notice (another court date scheduled in April I believe).

    Train wreck. Completely. Totally. Just sad.

    I'm so excited ya'll. There is a theme party I'm going to Saturday night. Theme: fave celebrity who's been to rehab. I'm going as Brit. I even have the perfect accessory....a Pakistani papparazi date!

    Now, off to Starbucks to ask them for an empty frappucino cup (Kat doesn't drink that poison).........

    What I gather from the entire situation--not any one event, mind you, but the whole thing--makes me weep for civilization. It's as if we're hoping to push her to the furthest possible point. We won't be happy until she goes on a killing spree and is spotted in a White Bronco trying to get to Mexico. The people are trying to destroy her for their amusment. (OOPS! I mean "amusement".)

    It just makes me sad, that's all.

    Oh--and thank you for those who taught me how to spell. I preshiate it.

    I read that she also threatened to kill the kids throughout that whole locking herself with her son debaucle.

    Leaving the gym tonight, I practically tripped over Britney's double...back when she was hot, like in Toxic.

    Oh well, too bad she fell apart before she could do some porn.

    Are you being sarcastic? If so, I agree, not everything we read is true. There have been a lot of lying going on by the tabloids.

    Yeah--I was being totally sarcastic. Not trying to be snarky, just saying. It kills me when people get up in arms about this or that Britney has supposedly done. It's like religion or royalty or soap operas. It's all fabricated and contrived but we want to get way deep into it and pretend it's important and real. I don't know. I'm having a hard time with words tongith. And there is beer involved.

    I just think she's the Frances Farmer of our time and it makes me hate humanity.

    I agree, the media/people are going to push her over the edge. They announced on Fox news tonight that the Associated Press has already written her obituary, ya know, just in case. How nice.

    i'm still a huge fan of britney. it's so sad what's happening with her now. i'm still hoping she can do a comeback... but she's got a long way to go. she so needs to get away from all the media for a while.

    I just thought about this today, but if anyone ever came to my house and tried to take my children away they would be dealing with much, more more than me locking us all in the bathroom together. It would turn into a standoff of Waco proportions.

    OK DSS/DYS taking your kids from you is one thing. Givingyour kids to your Ex as part of the legal agreement seperation is another. They were not there to take the kids from Brit, they were there to give custody back to Kevin as it was his time with the children.

    I feel bad for her. But it really is incredibly boring tabloid fodder, isn't it? I'll admit to being interested in celebrity gossip at times, but Britney stuff is just...it makes my eyes glaze over. Same with Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. I wish that shit didn't pop up, like, everywhere I look.

    My guilty pleasure is Angelina and Brad...I love how they're, like, the best looking people in the world, and also ridiculously 'good'. And also naughty. It's great.

    So do I. Where is s/he though?

    P.S. I've had more practice with my (natural) English accent (hint hint) than Britney.
