Brittany Spears, True to Her Redneck Nature

I am sooo over Brittany Spears, the diva of the last decade. Yeah I am glad she is married and having children, I may not be all that comfortable with the concept of her chosen mate being Kevin Fedderline but maybe, just maybe it could have been worse.

It is funny though. The media are on her like stink on a monkey's ass. They expect her to be a perfect mother and a perfect wife, and for Kevin, poor clueless Kevin to be a perfect husband. Perhaps they were supposed to disappear to the Hills of Beverly or the Streets of Belle Aire and then be the poster children and perfect models for the media that follow them everywhere they go.

I have known a couple of famous peeps in my life. Occasionally it happens to someone you knew back when or even knew when it was happening. Fame may be fickle and it may be fleeting but when it happens it is anything but forgiving. Brittany has been in the limelight for quite a while and frankly my only comment is that I have issue with her just because she seems oblivious to the incessant scrutiny. Sheeesh. Wake up!

It is not just that she is a redneck woman. Hell's bells she is from where? Mississipi? Hello! Others wonder why she puts up with her husband's apparent infidelity. Duh! She is a redneck. Her father probably was even worse. It is expected, perhaps. She knows her place and is apparently embracing it. She was supposed to be barefoot and pregnant throughout her 'baby makin' years. Granted it is like she is the Twenty First Century version of a Beverly Hillbilly, but you know what - we made her whatever she is. If we created a monster mother that drives her SUV with an infant in her lap, then so be it. We allowed her to get this much power. Did anyone arrest her for child endangerment? Despite the clear evidence, the public outrage and all that, what happened? She got pregnant again?

I think we all need to step back and take a deep breath. Brittany was incredibly hawt and disireable in teens and she stimulated many an adolescent to middle agedmale's fantasy. So was like Bo Derrick in the movie "10". Neither truth lingered past the moment to be true into the present. Everyone has flaws, okay. I am even okay with allowing 'stars' their flaws as well. It is just that I have trouble seeing all the coverage about Brittany et al in the press and knowing full well that beneath all the hype and glitter they will always be what they were born to be. Even if they have acquired great wealth due to their fame, in the end the roots will out.

Do not expect anything more than what you started out with. In life bonuses are pretty damned rare.
