Can't make it any easier for you now can I?
I hate to get in the way of a bit of Britney-bashing, but a singer would be considered a musician. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musician

That could perhaps be applied to Jimmy Page... but Britney?
Surely that's an oxymoron?engaging nasal vocals
Oh, the whole taking her clothes off on demand thing? Nah, Madonna was doing that for years.unique style
That be the key...a top notch production team
She's a good dancer and performer - that's about it. The rest of it is her production team and those who write the songs. Some very good pop songs in that repertoire though.0 -

Again, the difference between a musician and a recording artist, and why Britney is not a musician.

Shes not someone who sings in the shower for a living. She has written some songs including the number one hit Evertime, she has played the piano LIVE at concerts and is a great singer/songwriter/performer. Overall, I say this qualifies as being a musician...of course you dont know this, seeing as you have not been to her concerts and probably arent even a fan. Heres a clip of her im rather fond of:

Wrong!!
She wrote the ten seconds of piano for that song, which is all it is, five seconds of it repeated, and then same repeated again in a lower key. Or have you even listened to the song.
Annette Stamatelatos wrote the majority of that song, with Ms Spears getting a writing credit for the piano sequence. In fact, most of the songs on that album are Co-written, so christ only knows how much (or how little) she actually wrote on the album.
But i'm not a fan, therefore i don't let the little things cloud my judgment. But for the ten seconds of piano, yeah, that qualifies her as a top class "musician"
Whatever helps you sleep at night. 0 -

Wow, so she had a little help writing the songs...so what! What melodies has your silly face ever produced? Not much I suppose...
well, why dont you listen to the promiscuous fountain of conceit known as Christina Aguilera? From what ive seen from your personality, her charring music is more than a match for you. i see it now; crumpled up in a corner, your ears bound together by pink headphones blaring pretentious music through your gaping brain. So while you are there, relegated to the background forevermore, us britney fans will enjoy our fame and brilliance, while remaining modest and civilised. Enjoy your solitude, snob. 0 -

Eh... have you seen a picture of that poster, thus qualifying you to comment on their face? And are you suggesting that a person only has a right to criticise someone's ability at something if they have a particular talent in that department themselves? Because if that were the case, there'd be a hell of a lot less film/food/music/theatre/literature/art/television critics.What melodies has your silly face ever produced? Not much I suppose...
LOL - Christina is married, Britney's the hypocritical "christian" who bed-hops.well, why dont you listen to the promiscuous fountain of conceit known as Christina Aguilera?
LOL - you should learn to accept that people might have other opinions to you, and may not say nice things about the things you like. And guess what? They've every right to! Awesome the way you think it's not ok to bitch about Britney but it's ok to bitch about Christina. Oh and you also think it's ok to insult someone who insults Britney (although criticising a performer is not the same as insulting them).

Oh right, so people who have the opinion that Britney's crap are destined for lonely lives? Thanks for the tip.Enjoy your solitude, snob.

Yes, that was tough but again, not having a breakdown doesn't mean a person has no right to criticise her.and have a mental breakdown
If you're fame-hungry, them's the breaks. And just like you'll get nice things said about you - and she gets plenty of fawning and gushing - you'll get not so nice things said about you.have your heart ripped open in fron of the vicious eyes of millions?
And? What ****ing relevance does that have? You just criticised Christina Aguilera - have you a great voice like her? Are you as successful as she is? Etc, etc...What....you havent done that? Whats this? You're a relatively unknown person from Galway?
Thinking someone's crap is really not = jealousy.And w hile you are there, dont get jealous now........LOL
Perhaps you shouldn't take valid criticism of your favourite singer so personally... 0 -

The best critiques should have at least SOME experience in the field. Not that I have any respect for critics in general...they are,s simply put, a waste of space. i should know...I study literary criticism.

Oh, who hasnt bed hopped? its every teenagers dream.

Duh, now accept my opinion. Thanks.

People who are jealous of britney probably have a LOT to be jealous about, and thus lead nasty lives. My sympathies
She never produced an album.
Executive producer of Blackout. :rolleyes:
Yes, that was tough but again, not having a breakdown doesn't mean a person has no right to criticise her.
As a human, they should cut it out, or at least save it for a later time when its less likely to affect her.
If you're fame-hungry, them's the breaks. And just like you'll get nice things said about you - and she gets plenty of fawning and gushing - you'll get not so nice things said about you.
nobody can judge until they themselves are famous. Anyway, many celebrites arent as fame hungry as you reckon. For some, it just so happens their talent attracts all that attention. The REAL fame-hungry people are usually well equipped for it (like Madonna).
And? What ****ing relevance does that have? You just criticised Christina Aguilera - have you a great voice like her? Are you as successful as she is? Etc, etc...
im criticising her on the basis of her disgusting perosnality, not her talent. I might have to do that again to some others on this board though.
Thinking someone's crap is really not = jealousy.
Its nasty. nasty people tend to be unhappy.

I have a bond with B you guys just dont understand...jealous? 0 -
