    There is no way she's ever getting custody of her kids now.

    Yeah I wish the paparazzi would just leave her alone. I know its not going to happen though, her pictures sell papers and magazines. Maybe the likes of Sky News should stop reporting on celeb whatevers and concentrate on serious world issues. To much to ask? Probably.

    I had my head in my hands reading Perez this afternoon. What a mess. I'm feeling a lot less sorry for Brit than I used to though. She has done nothing at all to help herself get better and at this stage it's just a joke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,326 ✭✭✭Zapp Brannigan


    Such a fall from grace. I'd hope she has people around her to support her as this is approaching suicide territory.

    I feel sorry for her now...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    She might get the help she clearly needs now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,331 ✭✭✭✭bronte


    I feel sorry for her too, and just last night I was thinking she looks well in her new video, maybe she'll turn it all around.
    It's really sad.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,311 ✭✭✭xebec


    This is really sad. Somebody really needs to take control and get her better, she seems to be very sick and not capable of looking after herself or her kids.

    He's trying to get her on the show he's doing about her. More attention from the media is the last thing she needs.

    When you commit yourself to a showbiz lifestyle, you have to take the good with the bad.

    She chose that lifestyle.

    Yes, she needs help, but she also needs to want that help. It's quite apparent that she is not yet ready to accept it.

    We'll leave Britney alone when she leaves us alone.

    Found this on the net, not surprising the paps wont leave her alone!!!!
    http://www.hollyscoop.com/britney-spears/britneys-good-for-the-economy_14266.aspx

    In case you're wondering why the media won't leave Britney Spears alone, it's because she's good for business. Gawker.com has a breakdown of exactly how Britney's wild tactics benefit the paps, the media, and the economy in general.


    Pure Nightclub in Las Vegas reportedly sold seats at a table next to hers for $50,000 at a recent bash, and she still commands between $250,000 and $400,000 just for showing up at events.
    Elizabeth Arden has sold nearly $100 million worth of its Britney perfumes-Believe, Curious, and Fantasy.
    The photo agency X17, which has a team trailing her 24-7, estimates that Britney accounts for 30 percent of its revenue: It sold $2.5 million worth of Britney photos in 2007 alone, including $500,000 for its exclusive Bald Britney pics.
    Splash News says that Britney accounts for 10 to 15 percent of its business, boosted this year by $200,000 for photos of Britney in a hot tub.
    A celebrity tabloid with Britney Spears on the cover sells 1.28 million newsstand copies, some 33 percent more than the average.
    Between January 2006 and July 2007, Britney was a cover subject of People, Us Weekly, In Touch, Life & Style, OK!, or Star a total of 175 times in just 78 weeks.
    Newsstand sales of issues with her on the cover amounted to a staggering $360 million.
    Estimated annual value of the Britney Spears economy: $110 million to $120 million.

    'a showbiz lifestyle' should not include 200 photographers following you to starbucks and jostling you when you're with your kids

    it may have started out as the normal celebrity hounding but it's gotten far too extreme now
    the girl obviously isn't well, and until she is it's not good for anybody for her to be splashed all over magazines and TV slagging off her hairstyle


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,626 ✭✭✭Stargal


    Thought I'd resurrect this thread - it makes more sense to have one big Britney thread rather than loads of little ones. Might actually make it a sticky, considering how much she's in the news lately!

    Anyway, anyone else getting sick of the whole dramz? I'm seriously considering stopping reading Perez (dear God, never thought I'd write those words) because I'm just sick of reading EVERY SINGLE DAY about how Britney unfailingly goes to Starbucks, changes her clothes, chats to the army of paparazzi stalking her, puts on a British accent, ignores her kids and basically does a ton of other weird pointless crap. I just don't care any more. She's a mess, she's not doing anything to help herself get better and it's just boring.

    That gawker article is awesome btw, v well done.

    Edit: Merged with other Britney thread

    Did anyone see her latest crazy ****?

    She went outside yesterday in a tiny skirt, fishnet stockings, and her period covered pad in full view.

    W.T.F.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,626 ✭✭✭Stargal


    That is messed up on so many levels. I don't even have the words.

    If anyone really wants to see it, the pic is up on wwtdd.com but I'm not posting the exact link cos frankly it's just too weird.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,382 ✭✭✭✭AARRRGH


    My only explanation for it is: "look world, I'm not pregnant".

    But only a crazy crazy weirdo would choose such a freaky way to say that...

    Im sick to death of hearing about her....!

    im sorry if that sounds bad but seriously like. i think at this stage a lot of what she does is for the attention.

    Yeah I had the same thoughts. Unfortunately.

    According to jezebel.com the photos aren't for sale, because the owner of the agency that took them isn't sure what to do with them.

    I really think that this might be a new low in celebrity er, culture. That's totally the wrong word but I'm exhausted and it will do. But yeah, actually showing Britney's used sanitary pad? Jesus. I mean, seriously, wtf.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2 IFONLYJESUSKNEW


    Here is the U.S., she is the star on TMZ, a celeb show. Every day its a "what has Brit done today". So this week she was seen buying pregnacy tests, getting in high speed chases with the poperatzzi and the cops, and now people are thinking she is clinicly schitsophrenic.
    We in the USA are just waiting for her untimely death.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 493 ✭✭petals


    Everyone she's back :D and her new song is brilliant I mean up there with Toxic

    http://perezhilton.com/?p=4817

    I didn't like that at first but it kinda grows on ya.
    I luv "You want a piece of me" it such a Britney sticking two fingers up at the press type of song.. Luv it!


  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators Posts: 10,439 Mod ✭✭✭✭xzanti


    Anyone hear that radio clip of her talking to reporters in an English accent???.. She is fcuking balloobas, people!!! :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,061 ✭✭✭✭Terry


    Didn't hear it, but I did read something about her putting on an English accent the other day.
    Something about her new boyfriend.

    I'll try to find the link.

    I heard it on Spin1038.. It's cringeworthy, and one reporter asks her what part of England she's from and the rest laugh and she gets all offended and tells them to move on.. Strange strange girl..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 287 ✭✭jmcwobbles


    But sure now the reports are saying that she's got multiple personality disorder, and British Britney is one of her personalities. Did you hear about the night she invied the photographers into her home for drinks, and then switched personality after a couple of hours and kicked them all out?? (Source: http://www.wwtdd.com/index.phtml?t=BRITNEY+SPEARS) I have to say though, the MPD thing would explain an awful lot, and I find myself hoping that's what she has. Cos otherwise she's just a complete nutbag!

    Shes jus been carted off again! Hopefully they sort her out this time God love her!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,026 ✭✭✭Killaqueen!!!


    She's a fucking human being, who is obviously mentally unstable. Give her a break and leave her alone and find some other celebrity to crush.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,626 ✭✭✭Stargal


    I think TMZ has the clearest (and probably the most accurate) account of what happened to her last night. Linky or else just read on:
    How Britney's Second Psychiatric Hold Went Down
    TMZ has broken story after story in the middle of the night, detailing the second commitment of Britney Spears that occurred in the last few hours. For all of you who have just logged on, here's a summary.

    Last night, Britney's new psychiatrist went to her home and felt she was a danger to herself and others -- partly because of her reckless driving and partly because of her "downhill behavior." As a result, the shrink launched a plan (days in the making) to have Britney committed to UCLA Medical Center by calling the cops.

    Sources tell us the cops knew it was coming. In fact, the plan was for cops and paramedics to take Britney away the night before, but it was scrubbed. Last night, it all went down according to plan. Cops even used code to minimize craziness in transporting Britney to the hospital. Over the police radio, she was referred to as "The Package."

    Before the cops arrived, the shrink told her she was going back to the hospital and she offered no resistance. She said, "Is something wrong?" She made hot chocolate and waited. Her mom, Lynne, got extremely agitated, accusing Sam of engineering the impending commitment. We're told Brit told her to "shut the hell up." She demanded silence, sat on the floor and wrote notes to people who were there as they waited. When emergency personnel arrived, Brit went on the gurney without resistance.

    When everyone arrived at UCLA, things got heated. Jamie Spears began screaming at Sam Lutfi, accusing him of trying to control Britney. We're told as far as the doctors are concerned -- at least for now -- Lynne and Jamie Spears are not calling the shots. The point guy for the docs is Brit's friend, Sam Lutfi.

    Sources say after Britney's commitment earlier this month, she was extremely upset at her dad for getting angry at Sam and the hospital staff. Britney had lawyers draft several documents, however, we're told she did not sign a durable power of attorney giving Lutfi the power to make medical decisions on her behalf. Nevertheless, something was signed and doctors are going to Lutfi for guidance. Jamie went off on Lutfi in the hallway, accusing him of trying to control his daughter.

    Britney has been calm in the hospital, even getting a "cigarette break."

    We're told during the initial 72-hour stay she cannot be forced to take medication against her will. If, however, she refuses to take the meds, the plan is for the psychiatrist to go to court and have Britney held for an additional 14 days, during which time he could administer proper medications.

    As TMZ first reported, Britney has already been diagnosed with a bipolar disorder and has sporadically taken her medication. But one source says the meds just aren't doing the trick.

    Oh, and get this. Lynne Spears drove to the hospital tonight with Brit's pap friend Adnan!

    Stay tuned.

    Yes cause she hangs around Boards.ie the whole time...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,330 ✭✭✭✭Amz


    Surely the info TMZ has there is a sign that someone breached doctor patient confidentiality. I wouldn't think much of the psychiatrist if he/she is telling people all of this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 355 ✭✭purplegeko


    Now she has left hospital against medical advice and there are rumours swirling around her manager Sam Lufti about him drugging her, it seems this Britney thing will run and run.

    I feel sorry for her because she is messed up and needs help.
