BRITNEY SPEARS




Hmmm. This is going to be a tricky topic. How can one talk of Britney Spears and not risk a whole lot of CROCK landing unceremoniously on one's head? But one must be brave in life and take risks - and I write this with beads of sweat trickling down my forehead, utterly fearful that Chris Crock will find this and send me a rude video or something!

(Don't believe me? Then, see this load of crock...)




Anyway, I have always had a soft spot for Britney Spears ever since she came out with "Hit Me Baby One More Time" in 1999. Here was a young girl, playing at being naughty and having cheeky fun at the expense of the morally righteous. Her songs have consistently done that for a while now. And then she suddenly got married out of the blue in (appropriately!) Las Vegas and got divorced real fast and, following that married Kevin Federline and had two kids.

Federline and Spears divorced and now custody of the kids has been given to Federline as Spears has spectacularly demonstrated what kind of a mother she would make with all her drinking and drugging. When I first heard that the judge had given custody to Federline, I thought to myself that it must be because of her bad performance at the MTV VMA! Jokes aside, young loves should never have kids. The only types of people who ought to have kids are those who have reached a certain level of maturity and sophisticaton in life (ala Angelina Jolie) or dullards like Gwyneth Paltrow and the Affleck-Garner pairing. The rest should steer clear of parenthood and spare the rest of humanity unnecessary drama.
