Britney Spears Discussion Thread

I should inform you that Michael has an untouchable crown that Justin can not take.

(Exactly what Thomas-san said)

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.
 
No one ever said that either of them took the crown from whoever or whatever...

Er,
believe has become the new Queen of Pop, taking the crown and thrown from Madonna?

Well, you may call Britney whatever you want, but if by "taking the crown from Madonna" you imply Britney's had more importance, success, or contribution in pop music than Madonna, well, with all due respect, that's laughable to me.

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?

I believe she's one of the greatest people of all time

That deserves some explaining please.
 
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 :/
 
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.

You just pointed out to her breakdown one year ago, which has nothing to do with her pop career. Everyone goes through rough times in their lives, she's moved on, the world has moved on, and so should you.

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.

No....I mean the only song I DONT LIKE is My Baby, and yeah Lace and Leather is awesome, but not my complete favorite on the album.

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.
