I haven't gotten to hear much of her new stuff, but from the ones I have heard, I guess I'm in the "few to none" category. I don't love it, don't hate it; it's alright, but it's unlikely any of the songs would make a list of my favourites. She has a good voice and some of the songs seem like they could be catchy (I've only heard a few once or twice), but it just doesn't do a lot for me. I can enjoy her music, but I wouldn't call myself much of a huge fan or anything.
I think one of the newer songs from her I've liked was called "Radar?" That one is probably the one of heard the most. Other than that...there's some raunchy kind of sounding one my sister loves to sing the chorus to in the car. I have no idea what it's called though, but it's, um, interesting. As for her personal life? I detest cleb gossip and avoid it like the plague. I'm mostly ignorant of the whole fiasco and I like it that way. =) |
I was a fan of her back when she was first popular, when I was in kindergarten XD; I sorta forgot about her until not too long ago, and now I'm a total fanatic (b'')b I love her most recent work, especially Kill the Lights |D
But yeah, to be honest, there were a few years where I totally forgot about her. But she's awesome <3 |
She's got some really good songs! I loved her on the X factor!
|
She represents everything that is wrong with the female celebrity image. She has talent as a singer but that's about as far as it goes.
|
Britney was ever prepubescent boys dream, but there was a time when she fell off her pedestal and didn't get back up. But I have to admit that is making a comeback, as I am loving her Piece of Me song.
|
I really like her:D, I like her newer music more then her early work:D, and I'm a big fan of hers:D, go Britney!!!
|
As a little obbsesser when i was like five i still love her. Yes Radar is amazing, Womanizer is also good but lately i fell in love with Break the ice. That Britney For the record was a amazing documentery she wanted. She knew her old fans were gonna be won back. :) But in the documentery i was still wanting more. There was no Chris Crocker. :(
|
I think Britney is great, and her music is great. She went through a tough personal battle with her husband and the rest of her family, and the media didn't help (I think we know her views on the media now considering her songs "Piece of Me", "Kill The Lights", and her documentary on MTV "For The Record").
I think Circus has brought her back in the limelight, in a good way. |
Well,Britney is one of of the greatest singers of our time,I've been a fan since I was like 7 or 8 years old,I love all her music it's great in every way,I don't know why people see her as a bad person,but she's not she is an average person like everyone of us. I'll support with everything she goes through,hope things become better for her as it wasn't great in the past,but look forward to the future Britney. Hope her music becomes more and more cooler through out the future. I am currently obsessed with her new song "Kill The Lights".
|
Circus is one of the best albums I have ever heard.
She is truly the queen of pop. She could do anything, and put out anything, and it would still be loved. I hope to get to see her when she's on tour. |
For me, she's a big tree drivers keep crashing into on the road of music, but don't do anything about it.
I'm one of the people who'll stop and stare at the tree, before resuming walking past it on the sidewalk off to its side. |

Britney's OK, but there's no way she's taken the crown of Madonna. That's like saying Justin Timberlake took the crown from Michael Jackson. |
aint she crazy???? ok ok i dont have a problem with her except one of her music videos it looked liked she was about to seduce this guy then out of nowhere she was on a plane..i was like %&*[email protected]*^&%!!! other than that she entertains me lmao

Im a huge fan of Britney but the only diva that can use the letter B as her name is Beyonce!

No one ever said that either of them took the crown from whoever or whatever...Justin...has no title, he has only had two albums as a solo artist...as for Britney...she is the "Princess of Pop" its always been that way...

I was just simply sharing my views on who I believe is the queen of pop, which might as well be a side-topic to this thread since it does play a role the whole Britney Spears topic anyway. I respect views on who is what in the pop culture and all I ask is the same in return. I mean, there are a lot of people who believe, like I said, that both Britney and Justin became the queen and king of pop with their last albums they created. I just agree with Kill the Lights when the announcer said the "...Pop Princess, now queen of pop, has a special announcement she would like to make" even though that's pretty much a self-given title. |

LIKE A VIRGIN TOUCHED FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME ♪ |
Ladies and gentlemen, your Queen of Pop, Britney Spears.
Spoiler:
If it isn't obvious, I think she's nothing like she was back in the day, and since back in the day I was a child, she wasn't anything much back then either. This talk of Britney Spears being the queen of pop is foolish. |
Britneys got a lot more work to do if she wants to become queen of pop, more than 100 million records worth of work actually. She has more chance of becoming queen than Justin has of becoming King though...
It seems a lot of people (on this forum in particular) seem to idolize Britney like a saint; I fail too see what is so amazing about her. Yes she has had a number of hits in the charts, yes she has sold many albums but she hasn't done an amazing thing for society, she hasn't made a breakthrough in medicine saving hundreds of lives? what makes her different from all these other bands and solo artists that have sold many records? Quote:
|
I like her new series For the record. It just shows stuff about her life. It's actually pretty good.
|
Brittney's a really nice person. I hate tabloids; mainly cause they focus on her screw ups more than what's GOOD about her.
I hate her music, but as a person AND a performer, I really like her. My dad thinks she's a umm... "clown"... That's because he hears all the bad choices she makes, and I'll admit, she's made quite a few of them. That's not enough to make her a horrible person, plenty of people are like that and, we only hear about her because she's famous and crap :/ |
When she's constantly screwing up for a year, how can they not focus on that?
|
Well before anything, just let me start by saying that I've always hated pop music in general. with the exception of the backstreet boys...whatever happened to them?
I never liked her music, and I always hated the image of herself she was trying to portray. So, as a performer, I guess you could say I despise her. But as a person...I don't really know. I mean, you read all these tabloids about how she went all insane, ended up in drug rehab, etc. (I think I even read one where she claimed she was the anti-christ. Not sure how accurate that one was, though), but how many of the things we read are actually true, and not just made up for a good story? I can't help but to feel bad for her for all the media has put her through, even if she did most of it to herself =/ |
I loved her music back in the day. I do admit though, she isn't the best singer in the world. She is one of the BEST dancers in the world though. XD So to me she is a wonderful performer. And she had her problems. I do blame most of the media for that. I wish they would have leave her alone. She had a tough time, and they just wanted the latest scoop of her going insane. That is so wrong. :/
But I am glad she is back on track and doing what she loves. I might get her latest CD. I went ahead and got her Greatest Hits. Awesome stuff there. Brings me back. :3 |
I'm just glad Britney Spears has decided to go and turn her life around, and she really deserves the support...turning her life around for the better...what can be more blessing for her...I'm glad she has finally opened her eyes...
|
I haven't really paid much attention to Britney. Basically just started to ignore her during the whole head-shaving and rehab line of things.
Although I've never particularly liked her as a person and ESPECIALLY as a role model for today's youth, I am guilty of owning her first two albums, and have found something to like about most of her music... : / But, as a role model, like most celebrities, I've completely hated her the past few years. And it doesn't help that her little sister star-wannabe Jamie, went and got pregnant at the age of 16, as a star on a Nickelodeon series. But, as this isn't about Jamie.. I dunno.. Maybe I'll look some stuff up and see what Brit is up to. Maybe my opinion will alter. EDIT: Okay, change of wording. It's not so much she who is the bad role model as much as what the media wants to portray of her Just to get that out there. Oh! And I almost forgot. I am guilty of having once owned her "Curious" perfume product. It smelled so smexy. :3 |
Her debut “…Baby One More Time” debuted at number 1 on Canadian and U.S. charts. In The U.S., it stayed there for six weeks. The single with the same name went number 1 world-wide, including the U.S. and U.K. Spears broke the record for the youngest artist, at age 17, to have his or her first single reach #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart with “…Baby One More Time”. Spears also broke the record for the youngest artist, at age 17, to have his or her first single and first album simultaneously reach #1 on the Billboard charts.
Her follow-up album, Oops!… I Did It Again, released on May 16, 2000, also debuted at #1 in the US and Canada, and was a similarly huge hit. It sold over 1.3 million units its first week in the US, making it the fastest-selling album by a female artist. The album has sold over 10 million copies in the US alone and over 18 million worldwide. Her next album, Britney, was released in November 2001, and again debuted at #1 on both the US and Canadian charts, selling over 740,000 units its first week in the US. This made her the only female artist in SoundScan history to have her first three albums debut at #1. Her fourth album, In the Zone, was released in November, 2003. It rose straight to the top of the US album charts in its debut week, making Spears the only female in music history to have her first four albums debut at #1. She then released her first fragrance, “Curious”, in September. “Curious” is currently ranked the #1 fragrance in department stores. The fragrance had the biggest debut in sales in history from Elizabeth Arden. Her 50+ awards she has one including the best, A Grammy, for “Toxic” as Best Dance Recording. She was also nominated for 6 other Grammy’s. She is the best-selling female artist of the still-running decade and century and has sold a RIAA-certified 32 million albums in the US and 75 millions worldwide. Blackout debuted at #2 on the US charts last year, with no promotion from Spears herself. Circus debuted at #1 last week. Quote:
Look at what Britney has accomplished in the past 10 years, before looking at tabloids filled with crap. As much as I love Britney, she's still doesn't deserve the title of Queen just yet. Maybe in another 10 years. Right now, Madge is the Queen and Brit's the princess. Thanks soooo much for this thread. Britney is the sweetest girl in the world... <3 |
I'm glad she's back in action; all the tabloids were really getting harsh on her, and I hope she's on track to pulling her life back together. I've never been on for her music (Toxic is really her only fun song IMO, idk), but I'm happy when the artists are happy.
She should have a talk with that little sister of hers. X_x Pregnant twice? What? And you're on Nickelodeon? Haha. |

I thought I'd hate Mmm Papi from the sample I heard before the album came out, but it turned out to be really catchy and really fun to sing :D |
The only song on the album that I'm not too crazy about is My Baby...

I love Britney,she's my favourite singer,I just love pop.I'm not going to say that she's a great person because I don't know her,I've never read any of her interviews or anything like that.But I do love her songs and I'm really glad she's back on her feet.I have a feeling that she's going to stay.I look forward to her new songs.:)

Quote:
Lately, I have been listening to Shattered Glass, Mannequin, Phonography, and Amnesia. Also Quicksand and Trouble are probably next on my obsesson list. I got them after the CD was actually released cause one was like a iTunes Pre-Order Bonus Track and the other...I think was another iTunes bonus. |
Wow I had no Idea about those two songs but I just got them. They are really good. the only songs I hate are My baby and Out From Underneath.

No. I can relate to Blur to a degree and I love Unusual You though.

I love her song that I have in my profile:D

I've never been a big fan but, I'm guilty of completely obssesing over Womanizer(she also looks darn smexy in the video) so much I actually know all the lyrics.I also like Toxic and Break The Ice. However, I disagree about the Queen Of Pop thing, Madonna is, and will be da queen 4 evah! She's the only 50 year old woman who looks sexy, and can dance while jumping rope, heck, my mom's 10 years younger and she'd die if she were ever to do that.
Anyways, you've all inspired me and I'm gonna make a Britney theme later.KTHNXBYE! |
Quote:

She is very talented, but right now, with the many pop newcomers and Madonna still around, it's probable she'd still be the Princess of Pop for some more years. On the bright side, I doubt Katy Perry would ever reach their calliber, even though I love her!

With that said, what does everyone think about that or about lip syncing in general with stars? |
Quote:

Wow, Phonography is now one of my favorite tracks on the album. Amnesia is okay but not great.

I will try to again. It just reminded be of a different version blur a bit even though it talks about different things.

I don't know if you ever downloaded all of the Bonus Tracks for her last album Blackout, but there was one that I loved called Get Back...it was an iTunes Bonus track...it is awesome...

I'm a huge Britney fan, and I really like her last two cds. Her earlier stuff was sometimes good, but her later stuff was excellent.
I'm not sure if she took the crown from Madonna, simply because Madonna has been around much longer than Britney, but she's certainly on her way. |

Case closed. |
I hate Britney Spears so much.
Just a head's up - I don't want this thread to be a discussion about who's nickname is "B." When two celebrities name's start with the same letter, they're bound to have similar nicknames. Seriously though. Why haven't I posted here yet? I only recently become a fan of Britney four years ago when I first heard Toxic. I had always secretly liked her when she first came out, but as a young boy, that wasn't cool so I avoided her CDs and such. Then, when Toxic came out, I was enamored and began to listen to her more. Then, the Greatest Hits CD came out and I asked for it for Christmas. From that point on, my fascination grew more and eventually, she became my favorite artist. I'll admit my interest waned and artists like Beyonce, Rihanna, and Gwen Stefani creeped into my hearts, but with the release of Blackout, I fell in love with Britney once again. My love has increased more as I have discovered remixes of her music and she is by far the most played artist on my iTunes. I am not what you would call a stan (superfan for those who don't know the lingo). I am not obsessed with every move she makes and will not fight to the death to protect her name. I acknowledge she has a weaker voice than many and that she has made many mistakes in her career. Her music just fascinates me and every time I hear one of her songs, it's like they're toxic and it's my prerogative to listen to them over and over again. Also, if you dislike Britney, don't just post "i haet brittany so much." Post a reason. And if someone does post an opinion stating they dislike Britney, don't flame them. Counter their points, but don't attack them. |
Well said. I have never been a superfan, but I have conistently been a fan of hers since ...Baby One More Time. To me In The Zone was the highest point of her career. Womanizer is really popular and is getting a lot of radio play bug I don't think it is near reaching the level of popularity that Toxic reached.
|
The day she shaved her head is the day I enter a sort of "Lol Nirvana"
Honestly, I've always thought of her music as a joke, leftovers from a time when boy bands ruled the earth. |
I'm not going to lie here. I freakin' loved Britney Spears back in the day. I don't really like her as much now, but even still, it hurt to see all the tabloids everytime I was in a grocrey store or something. She's a normal person, it's just the fact that she's famous that gets all the media swamped on her. Lets take the Sean Preston in her lap situation. You know what? When I was a baby, I've sat on my dad's lap while he was driving. Were we in the news for that? No, we were not. Why was Britney? Because she's Britney. Every little mistake she makes is publicised because she's famous.
And don't even get me started on shaving her head. You know what? I have a friend who shaved her head. So what? It's just because it's Britney that it was looked into and cared about so much. PS: Love Womanizer. <333 |

For the record, That album cover just shows a B, its not a nickname. Thats the end of that discussion, I think I might just pop in B Day cause I love it when Jay calls her B on that one track.
Anyway, Phonography is a really great song. It is now my favorite off the album and it was the last I heard. |
If we are debating who's nickname is B, well then it is Blair Waldorf. xD
But as far as pop stars go, Britney will always be B to me. (xD Rhymes) |

Anyway, I've been listening to Blackout again. I was listening to Freakshow in my car today and I didn't realize how Robyn reminiscent it was. Very good song for those who skipped over it on Blackout or haven't given it a listen yet at all. |
Quote:
With that aside, strangely enough, I have been to Blackout as well. It wasn't until Circus and the documentary that she made with MTV that I really began to understand the meaning behind each of the songs in Blackout. Even though she didn't write the majority of the songs included on the album, they still relate to her in some way or another which is another factor that I enjoy about listening to her because it's not 'just Pop music' being played. They have meaning to them just like the majority of the good songs out there. |
Quote:
Could you be more specific please? I think the only "personal" songs on that album are "Piece of Me" and "Why should I be sad" <- worst song on the album. Maybe I don't get it 'cause I haven't seen the documentary yet... |
Quote:
But no she was not lip syncing in the video in my profile, you can clearly see so when they show her face when she's in the front of the stage. |

I don't listen to Britney Spears all that much. That's not to say that I don't think many of her songs are catchy, because some of them are. I just think of pop music as more about the fame and fandom instead of the actual music. It's not that I don't like pop music or Britney Spears, I just like other genres much better.

Better make sure that the line is clean; phonography, phonography, dirty talking, call it phonograhy[/britney nerd] But I have "Kill the Lights" stuck in my head; It's like a darker, sassier version of "Piece of Me". :D |
Actually you are both wrong...
...you missed a lyric. Better make sure that the line is clean Keep it confidential, you and me Phonography, phonography Dirty talk and call it phonography But yeah, Phonography is another one of those songs that you just like immediately. |

Um...hi! I just have to say, Circus is a very bad arse song, I love. I'm gonna bribe my mother into getting it for me on Christmas. Hope that works.

I've been a fan since Baby One More Time and I still love her and always will!
I even saw the Oops tour. She was the last concert I have been too. XD *drove out of state with sister and cousin to see her* But our seats sucked. |

Also, if anyone hasn't listened to Trouble (the iTunes pre-order bonus track) then you really need to. It is really really good. Edit: And I heard an awesome Christmas song by her today on the radio called My Only Wish. |

So in reply to the actual topic and not the more recent posts ('cause I'm slow): I don't like her music so much, but she's not a horrible artist.
I definitely wouldn't say she's "the most discussed artist in this point in time", but she's definitely not far from it. Forming an opinion about her on a personal level wouldn't be right, as more than half of the rumors I've heard about her are presumably untrue. However, I must admit that it takes some guts and willpower to be able to do what she's done, and since I can only judge a person by their actions, "Bravo, Brittany Spears". While I don't like her genre of music, I do believe she is one of, if not the best at it. Some songs are rather catchy, while others I wouldn't be caught dead listening to. As for her being the "Pop Queen", I really don't have an opinion on that right now. I don't listen to very much pop, so I couldn't compare. She is a very talented individual, though, and I think the media needs to stop focusing on all the bad and start focusing on all the good. |
As most people know, I love Britney. She is talented, and though she has had her moments, she isn't that bad.
|
I like Britney. Shes a regular person with mistakes, she just gets publicized her for it. Now I know someone is going to say "Oh yeah, a regular person shaves their head all the time, of course". I admit, she shouldn't have done that, but that was like what? A year ago and your still complaining about it? She really improved herself this year, and shes getting, and looking healthier.
|
I love Britney Spears! Her songs are awesome<3
Especially her new songs now; like Circus, Mannequin and Get Back, I've been listening to them a lot. I also like Piece of Me, Break the Ice, etc. |
Quote:
Also finally someone who likes Mannequin. I can't seem to find anyone else who likes that song. It's probably my favorite right now on Circus, I've gotten over Amnesia just a bit, and have been listening to Mannequin more and more. Really good. |
I love the song mannequin. Its different but I dont think it makes sense.
|
Quote:
I wish it was a single.... ;; Mannequin is ok, I guess...I wish its tempo was more fast though. |
Quote:
|
I just went back and listened to Get Naked (I Got A Plan) again. Yeah that song was really good, but definitely not even in my top 5 for the album.
For blackout: 5) Everybody 4) Piece of Me 4) Gimme More 3) Freakshow 2) Get Back 1) Ooh Ooh Baby love it. lol |
