Britney Spears

Apparently last night Britney Spears was taken to the hospital after a hours long standoff over her children.

This woman has ignored her responsibility; drinks, does drugs and parties when she SHOULD be fighting to get her children back, or at least joint custody. She's way past "train wreck". She is sick, and she's sick because she chooses to be. Hell even her lawyers dumped her ass.

That she and her now pregnant 16 year old sister are "role models" for the youth in America today troubles me.

I would not usually blog about Britney Spears and her "troubles", but I see her as a reflection of our times. Why are we fascinated to watch a woman abuse her children and the legal system? Why is she front page news? Her music sucks and she's a disgusting pig. She flaunts her "attributes" for the paparazzi, she SEEKS them out. There are many more famous people in Hollywood and the music industry that are able to go to a 7/11 and buy smokes without it being front page news. She steals, drinks and drives, texts with her kids in her car. She's been involved in how many hit and runs?

Now, just imagine it was you, or I that did these things? Our collective asses would be rotting in jail.

I just wish that Hollyweird and the music industry would try and find some worthwhile people to emulate, to talk about, to put up on the proverbial pedestal. Because Britney Spears just doesn't cut it.

And that's about all I've got to say about that.
