There’s a really funny post over on Citizen of the Month today.
He discusses how old you are based upon your knowledge of Britney Spears.
I’ve blogged about Britney before – mostly how I’m not a fan and that I think way too much press is given to her, but I felt like that about Madonna as well – (her singing – not her adoption status).
We just love celebrity lives, but I can’t figure out why. I’m as interested as the next person though, because I do know that Britney was out partying for seven nights straight on her birthday and left her two young children at home.
Neil’s post got it right. Even though I know about her, I wish I didn’t.
He tagged me as middle aged based upon my uninterested interest.
Gasp. I’m middle aged. Yep.
Nancy Grace also had a whole TV show about Britney’s kids going to foster care because she was out partying for a few, (seven!) nights straight. Nancy was outraged and shouted at the screen:
“Where are her children? Who is taking care of her children?”
It’s called Grandma Nancy. Grandma was there to watch the children. Lucky Britney.
I’m a bit pissed off as I write this. Britney is lucky enough to have two great kids, and she’s out partying leaving them without their mom.
It could be a case for foster care, but I don’t really think that’ll happen.
Britney’s publicist will pull it together for her and teach her how to be a doting mom before it is too late for her career.
Although some say this bad publicity will help her next record sales.
How sad.
Motherhood should be about the children.
Hummm I better go read more of Neil. I went from laughing to grumpy while writing this post – I need to go laugh again.
I am Gen X according to that blog – which is absolutely true! I know a lot about her, although I don’t particularly care, and I think her music is good to workout to…I think those babies will be okay, too. Their grandma is around for them.
I’m laughing: I’m a 32-year-old Senior Citizen, apparently!
That WAS good for a laugh. Another ‘middle-ager’ here. Just yesterday I was wondering why “Brittney Spears” was the top search item on Yahoo. Yeah, I guess that makes me Old.
But I’ll bet you DO remember leg warmers and pegged jeans.
And now, Paris Hilton is in the news for feeling maternal. She wants four kids by the time she’s 30, and then there’s this:
In fact, looking after kiddies has become so appealing to Hilton that she recently cut short a night out with Spears, announcing to friends, “We’re going home to the babies. We miss them.”
