I love her and feel really bad for her. I don't own any of her CD's or anything, but she reminds me of a bunch of girls I went to school with. Poor Brittney. I'm glad she's making a comeback.
I think it is truly amazing to see her reflect and see what has happened and is now coming back to a good place. I hope someday her dreams of finding the true love and being more of a part of her sons lives come true.
PLEASE say it is the hormones! b/c can you imagine living like what?? w/ millions of dollars and people to do everything for you?? there are plenty of celebrities who live much easier lives w/ out constant paparazzi. She brings it all on herself.
I'm pretty emotional these days. It doesn't take much for me to shed some tears...... but I absolutely didn't shed any during that show. Now right before, CNN had the Heroes show. I cried through every single person. It's amazing the good that some people can do.
I have it on DVR. I'll probably watch it in the next day or two. I want to feel bad for her but I also feel a little "told ya so" about it all...so we'll see.

I didn't see the documentary and yes, it'd be great to have financial freedom, but here's the thing: the poor girl wasn't prepared to deal with everything that her fame and career entailed. If I understand correctly, she doesn't even have a high school education. Seriously, how many people hire someone w/o even a GED and zero business experience at the age of maybe 19 or 20 to run a multi-million dollar a year business? Noone. But that's essentially the position she was/is in. She's the head of her own 'corporation' with very little formal education and so much responsibility, not only for her career but for herself as well without being allowed to grow up and make all of the mistakes that the rest of us do in private, many of us with the support of friends and family without millions of dollars clouding the picture. Frankly, I would argue that in the case of Britney, the money probably causes almost as many problems for her as it solves: think of all of the people who just want a piece of her and her fortune and only care about what her fame and money can do for them...it'd be pretty sad to be the young person in the middle, not really knowing yourself, not being educated enough to have confidence in your decisions....and then falling on your face. Millions of dollars? Shoot, if that's the kind of life that it will buy, I'll keep my everyday job and my everyday life hands down.?
What's the point of the money if you can't do anything? She can't go to a mall and shop. She can't go on vacation without people following her. Can you imagine trying to take your kids on a vacation and having 50 people snapping cameras in your face?
The money is useless to her because she can't go anywhere or do anything. It might be nice not to have to "budget" for a vacation, but at least when I go, it's a great experience. When I go to the mall, I can't spend thousands at a time, but at least I can shop in peace and it's a nice experience.
And, when I leave the house in ratty sweatpants with my hair a mess, I don't have to worry about it being plastered all over TV and magazines.
Money can't buy certain things and the freedom to live normally is one of them.

I totally agree! Yes, the money would be nice but honestly, I'd rather have my ordinary life than hers.
Re: I am crying over Brittney
Yep, thats a little sad - not gonna lie.
I'm not a Britney fan though, never have been...
