Britney - BBC Radio 1 Britney Interview
In a 15 minute long interview Britney did for BBC radio, she explained how
she thinks you can "dance and make out" to her new album. She also
explained that because she doesn't have a boyfriend she'd sometimes go into
"Dreamland" and write about what she dreamed about.
Incy wincy Justin ... laughing Britney taunts her ex on TV
By MARTEL MAXWELL
GIGGLING Britney Spears has made her ex Justin Timberlake look small by hinting he has a tiny willy.
Pop hunk Justin is dubbed Trousersnake because he is such a big hit with the ladies.
But Britney, 21 who lost her virginity to the singer suggested on US telly he was actually a huge disappointment in the pants department.
Talking about her break-up with Justin, 22, she said she felt just a little bitter.
She laughingly stressed the words just and little while using her thumb and finger to indicate a teeny length.
An insider on the MTV special, In The Zone & Out All Night, said: She didnt actually use Justins name but as she always says he has been her only lover it must have been him she was talking about.
After she said it she fell about laughing with her camera crew. Forget Trousersnake, its more like Trouserworm.
The show will be screened on MTV in Britain on December 2, Britneys birthday.
It was in stark contrast to another appearance on US TV last week, when Britney burst out crying talking about Justin, who now dates Cameron Diaz.
Publicity stunt ... Britney
The Sun UK
...and how NOT to promote a record
I KNOW you might all be a bit sick of BRITNEY SPEARS but I couldnt resist her latest effort to flog her new album.
Millions watched her blubber like a baby on a US news programme as she talked of her split with JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE (yes, the break-up that happened 18 months ago).
Tears ... star on US TV
With a new album on the go and a burning desire for it to be a success, she
is ticking all the publicity trick boxes.
Weve had the lesbian kiss, the illness, the tales of her pleasuring herself, the raunchy dance routines and now, in the crying interview, references to getting high on cannabis and her love for alcohol.
At this rate In The Zone should go straight to No1 and stay there for a year.
Permanent marker ...
Britney's latest tattoos
BRITNEY showed off these new tattoos on TV on her foot.
She told viewers of Jay Lenos Tonight show: The butterfly script means freedom. I also had one done on my toe even though youre not supposed to because it damages it.
Britney already has tattoos on her back and stomach.
Britney Busted!
Grab ... Britney comes over all Michael Jackson
YOU would never guess that BRITNEY SPEARS was trying to get a No1 single.
As these photos show, she flashed her
G-string, grabbed her crotch MICHAEL JACKSON-style, high-kicked and wiggled
her behind during a sensational open-air gig in New York yesterday.
Her antics went down a storm in the States.
Splits ... singer kicks out
And she can only hope they will have the same effect here as new single Me Against The Music is failing to set the British charts alight.
It is heading for No2 this Sunday and being trounced by British boy band BUSTED.
Their single, Crashed The Wedding, has sold 2,000 more copies than Britney so far and looks set to notch the lads their second No1.
Wiggle ... star rear-ly put on a show
Brit did her best to hype her comeback album In The Zone by teaming up with MADONNA for a lesbian snog at the MTV awards in New York in August.
But her cause wasnt helped when she pulled out of a European meet and greet tour designed to help boost sales.
She is hoping the new single which also features Madonna in the video will put her back at the top of the pile.
No one could accuse her of not pulling out all the stops during her live Times Square concert.
Dressed in a JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE-style trilby and ludicrously low-cut trousers, she delighted the crowd before collapsing into the arms of her dancers.
An onlooker said: It was a great performance. She was obviously doing all she could to get to No1.
Knockout ... Britney falls into arms of her dancers
But could it be that Americas Princess of Pop is burned out in Britain ...
at the ripe old age of 21?
In tears again: a fan wrote her a poem and presented it to her at the
CD signing
Beauty comes from within...you are beautiful
Talent is a gift...you are a gift to your fans
Painters create masterpieces... you are one
Words are slander...you don't let them hurt you
Inspirations drive us...you are inspiration
You're so many thing and more
Thank you for being you
Love, Jennifer
MTV - The Leak of Britney's In The Zone
MTV's The Leak this week is featung Britney's entire album available for free via streaming audio on their web site. So if you still not heard the album and not downloaded the leaked mp3s last week, now is your chance to finally listen to the entire album completely legally.
"I feel like I've hit a great new stride as an artist," Britney Spears says with pride regarding her new album. "I've worked hard, and I feel like I've grown on so many levels." Britney's musical intensity and evolution from teen renegade to provocative young woman are undeniable throughout In the Zone; she co-wrote seven of the project's 12 new compositions, collaborating with such heavy hitters as Red Zone, The Matrix, Moby and Cathy Dennis. Also contributing hit-worthy material to the album are R. Kelly, Ying Yang Twins and, of course, the significant appearance of pop icon Madonna. "Putting this record together was an incredible journey for me," Britney says. "I had the freedom to explore and experiment with some of the most exciting people in music. In the end, that allowed me to make a record that is a pure reflection of where I am right now."
I got a good response from the last airbrushed picture, so here we go again...
Lets pretend Britney's management has decided to come out with a talking Britney doll. She will have 3 different one-line sayings... what are they?
Is one of the lines: I'll have sex for money? honestly this is the stupidest thing ever and I really hope that there isn't any controversy with it because then it won't be all over the media, we all know that's why she gets publicity
On your knees please.
Pull my string for implants to explode.
Oh Gosh, I'm SUCH a Goob! Ya know?
Oh baby baby
shakin' my ass
Watch my videos and learn to be a slut too
I'm a slaave for you!
Have you seen my brain?
Take off all your clothes!
britney already has a doll (my cousin has it) ... and it sing better than
britney but anyway, the doll would
most likely just make sex noises and moan.. just like the real britney
I'll be a slut 4 u
Fuck my "virgin" ass!
OK, time's up. Pay up. *giggles idiotically*
Sure, these are real.
"Hi I'm Britney Spears, the contradiction doll, wanna play w/ my fake-bake lotion?
Hey.. I'll buy it. As long as those three sayings are "I'm a whore.", "I can't sing", and "I sucked dick for three years to get here." That'd be the bestest doll ever.
Kiss me! Kiss me!
Fuck me baby
*giggle* I'm a whore * giggle*
Do as I say kids not as I do.
I'm a virgin. HAH.
Oh Lordy, the kiss was Madonna's idea!
Pay me....Enjoy!
I'm like so in the zone. (The sentence is stupid just like her, so it seems fitting.)
1) I miss Justin... wahhhhh
2)I suck!
3) buy my record ya'll
I love kissing Ken, but I'd rather kiss your mother.
Life in plastic, it's fantastic!
I will "blow" you away.
Got a light?
80s pop star Kim Wilde has spoken out about today's pop divas, expressing disappointment with Britney Spears.
"Britney I've always been very disappointed by, I mean, she has never really delivered. She seems to be an amazing performer, but it kind of stops there. She's a long, long, long, long way from being anything like Madonna, which she cleary aspires to be."
I'm glad some celebrities actually tell the truth and don't just kiss ass all the time...
Britney and Jamie Lynn at a transvestite club
Jamie Lynn - "Now, ya know, no offense to him but she went out there and did her best and she lost? That wasn't fair!" (when Britney lost her second time on Star Search)
Would she think it'd be fair if he went out there and did all he could and lost?! Do the Spears' family only think of themselves? We have a word for that: self-centered. She lost probably because the girl can't friggin sing! Does anyone in her family realize that?!
Britney's ABC Special
Lip-synching at its best. "Everytime" was the only song she actually
sang (pic #3)- with nice loud piano and back-up singers to cover up some of
it. She said, before she started singing, that she wrote "Everytime"
about two years ago (first song she ever wrote, she said, what about Dear
Diary? lol) -- she wrote it while she and Justin were together, mind
you. So who did her "weakness hurt" then?! The last picture she
sang "BOMT" and I'm not sure if it was live. The beginning talking
wasn't, she didn't even bother moving her lips... She dances on the table
within the first minute. It had a hell of a lot of moaning and Marilyn Monroe
breathing to it. Her voice sounds terrible, so I think it was live, but the
sound was messed up on the copy I downloaded, so I'm not sure. The scene was
nice though, I liked the idea of it, but performed badly. The girl has to
put porngraphic sex into everything. Obviously, she's never heard of "classy
sexy." By the way, the first picture was "Breathe On Me" (starting
with a red top, then stripping it off), then came "Slave 4 U" (pic#2)
- starting with "Boys" and a white shirt over the orange "top."
Of course, stripping it off to get to "Slave."
American Music Awards Arrival 2003
Lance! The dress is horrible! Although it got raves from the "fashion
experts" on E!, I think it's really lame. But it's tight, and that's
all she cares about. The top half is okay, but the bottom feathery area just
makes her look like a big bird. lol The hair and make-up is nice, simple...
(last picture: did she shave her armpits?)
American Music Awards Performance 2003
Oh god, another terrible performance. Seriously, how many times is she going
to do the same crap over and over? The outfit deserves two thumbs down. The
purple corset alone would be hot in the bedroom, but on stage? Please. I don't
know how she breathes with all her tight "costumes." I hate the
song (MATM) and you could maybe hear her real voice every once and a while,
but overall just another lip-synching performance.
"Breathe On Me" Performance
This is a friggin' slow song and she was still lip-synching! Anyone could
have actually sang AND "performed" at the same time. This is how
it went: she's standing over the male dancer as he lies on the floor. They
move to the couch, she sits - legs wide open, he does a little dancer in front
of her as she moves her hands over his body. The male dancer follows her up
on the couch (pic #1) and they do a "move your pelvic area together"
scene (pic#2). She helps him take his shirt off (pic#3), he lays down on back
and they play with the shirt behind them (high on sexual imagary - pic#4).
She walks around, a female dancer lays down and she stands over and "moves"
over her (pic#5). More walking around (pic#6), a few shaking hips, then standing
on the couch and shake hips then sits down and stands back up, then ass shaking
(pic#7), then grabbing the microphone and pretending to "strain"
as she hits a high note (pic#8). Group "dance." A few close ups
of her lip-synching and the end... Just writing that felt dirty, lol.
Britney performing in Vegas
Notice how all her "surprise" performances are done for MTV? She
doesn't perform for the fans, she does it for the camera and publicity. Why
fans don't see that, or don't care, is beyond me... The whole performance
consisted of her having "sex" with her dancers and them taking her
clothes off. Gosh, that's original.
Britney On Access Hollywood
This was in the news, basically, a girl (about 18 years old!) presented her with a poem she
wrote and Britney started crying, then she excused herself for a few minutes
(behind a curtain) and returned to signing CDs... Don't tell me fans haven't
done that before, which means since there was a camera on her, she had to
make news for herself...
Britney's Diane Interview
Crying on TV. Her fans feel bad for her, I think she did it for that sympathy.
What made her cry? The break-up: of course many people deal with that all
the time... her parents divorce: she has stated before that it was good for
them because they haven't gotten along for awhile (what about Jamie Lynn who
was actually there while they were fighting?!)... her aunts cancer: yet Britney
smokes and is killing her own body... bad publicity (smoking, Mexico's middle
finger, etc): all of which SHE created on her own... I'm sorry, I just can't
feel bad for her.
Britney FHM Magazine Shots
Nothing new, especially not from her. The last picture is all about her boobs
(where'd they come from?!) while the middle picture is about her boyish figure.
Seriously, nothing is wrong with a child's body on a woman if it's natural,
but the hype her body gets, is just creepy. We obviously have a lot of pervs
out there.
Britney Glamour Awards 2003
Aw, I'm sorry what funeral are you attending? Oh wait, she's at a GLAMOUR
awards? Then why the hell is she wearing that? The dress alone would be okay,
but the gloves and the hat are just bad accessories.
MTV Total Request Live (TRL)
This would have been a good outfit if the pants weren't so damn low. Not only
do they show how unbelievably un-curvy she is, but no one needs nor wants
to see that area. The pants are otherwise cute and the shirt is okay (and
I think she's actually wearing a bra for once!).
Britney Performing on TRL
She was outside, in cold weather (I'd guess at least 20-30s) and that is what
she wore. The coat better not be real fur, I must say that! The pants are,
as always, too low. What the hell is up with her and low rides? They don't
flatter her body at all! They only make her body look like a stick... touching
yourself again, Brit?
Tonight Show Interview w/ Jay Leno 2003
Showing him her new tattoo (mentioned in the news). They talk about what she
desires in a man, her new album, how her dad reacts to her "sexy"
(cheap) photo shoots, etc. Pretty boring. The last picture is a guy in the
audience who dressed up as Britney. Fans' questions were asked to her (favorite
indulgence), what kind of pizza she likes (cheese and pepperoni). Ideal age
to get married (25). She'd liked to have a lot of kids. Auctioning car for
her foundation.. Nothing that kept me interested.
Britney's Official Site Photo
Britney: The next Playboy bunny? The picture has been airbrushed to the point
her face doesn't look like her own anymore. Obviously "natural"
is something Britney never wants to experiment with.
Britney Spears reveals that the ABC producers of her segment on tonight's 'Primetime' interview with Diane Sawyer tried to exploit her for promo spots. "It was really obnoxious," she told Entertainment Weekly. "They wanted me to take my clothes off. They wanted me to have this towel wrapped around me and then drop it. It was all about my body, you know?" [November 13, 2003]
She has GOT to be kidding?! So only her record company can exploit her body? Is that how it works? She has to be the most ignorant person on this planet!
I can't hate on children (especially when they are still innocent)... Too
much pink though ;)
final grade: 4.4
all
responses-
1. I wouldn't wear that if someone paid me. I think if you want to show your team support, you could do that without showing your ass as well. Good job, Brit Shit. *rolls eyes*
7-- I would wear it...
ok, I give her a one, and that's being really kind, no I would not wear it anywhere, even the hookers don't dress so stupid, and the football groupies have more class then that. The only attention she can get is negative attention, and she will take it any way she can. So many artists make their own clothing lines and have their own style, she doesn't, she just rips a sock and says, oooooh, I will wear this...
oh boyyy... another football shirt!!! god! ;-x the skirt could be cute.. but its not.. ha like a 3
I give it a 5. It isn't as bad as most of her outfits...the shirt is kind of cute, but the skirt has got to go. She should be wearing white pants instead.
1 - did you wanna rip that skirt a LITTLE more?
2! It's very creative but it looks like she went into her brother's closet, shrunk his jersey, ripped it up and put it on. Then it looks like she went to the local fabric store and tried to make a skirt. Creative but ugly.
10.. I really like it!!! totally cute... I love hot pink right now!!!
poor britney. her skirt got attacked by pigeons.
I really luv that skirt I think its really cute.. the shirt is ok. I rate this outfit a 5
ew the last one I could stand it was cute I guess, but this one is...SICKENING! lets see.. uhm 1? Lol
What the fuck is that shit?! a big fat friggen 0 :)
10! She looks so hot in longer mini skirts cos her legs aren't made for short mini skirts. She's gorgeous in red it complements her complexion. She's onstage having fun and the cuts and slits are so sexy!
6..i LOVE the shirt.. it's so cute on her.. the skirt has definitely got to go.. should could have worn pants with that.. but she looks adorable
5 ill give her a 5 cuz i like the mini skirt, she has nice toned legs but i dont know... the skirt hardly looks unique... i dont know what else to say... the pink jersey shirt looks like it's making her breathing really difficult... looks as if its ten sizes too small.
The outfit is "okay". With all the money she makes you would think she could buy a whole skirt though.
What the hell?! Is it just me or does that outfit look like she just jumped in her closet and changed in the dark? Ekk! The skirt and the tee don't match at all! I'd give her less than a freakin' one there.
2 wtf is that? its like a... a window treatment gone bad
I'm liking the shirt but the skirt is ugly. and of course...the only thing that brit likes to do is show her legs all the time. at least she's covering her chest.
honestly I give it 7. it's not so bad. the skirt is unique and the football type shirt is kinda girly and cute. just if it could cover more of her stomach it would be a lot better looking. but we know thats not possible.
I have to give this a 5.9. Because i really dig the shirt. It's not that slutty, the ten on the the shirt is kewl, but she ain't no "dime" (haha "i'm lovin' it"JT) anyway, the skirt is funky, and it matches the top. But her hair is awful as usual. Damn she makes everything look bad.
I give it a, uh. 6? I'd maybe wear, it, if I was feeling slutty haha.
1 Ick, she's supposedly so rich, why can't she buy clothes that aren't ripped?
4. The skirt alone is cute, although too short. The shirt is really cute cause i have a think for football jersey's like that. But they don't match at all and what's with the wrist bands? Is that fringe hanging off of them?
a 6...The shirt is cute by itself but that skirt is revolting w/ that high cut!
4. The shirt and skirt go cute together. If the shirt was actually a full length shirt and the slit on the skirt wasn't so high, it'd be better.
1, Hey Brit, Justin called, he wants ALL of his football jerseys back!
10-looks good on her
2 - okay, wtf is that supposed to be? It looks like an Indian costume with those dangly things on her arm.

| A simple, nicely airbrushed close-up picture (SNL).. I like the hair extensions as well... Pretty. | Why she used that picture for a CD cover is beyond me.. In my opinion, she looks like a drugged out hooker. Not at all flattering... | Her body looks disgusting (with 7 year old curves) and the pose is playboy material and the lack of clothes just add to the "desperate" look. |
