I do not have the rampant Brittany here. I think she is okay and some of her songs are fluffy fun.

so true - I can't help but like most of her songs in a very here today, gone tomorrow kind of way, but she personally makes me want to vomit

[Brwn_eyes0511]

I like this pic much better....

The reason she cut her hair...is so it would grow back the longer blonde she originally had it. She was using extentions for so long.

[Gypsy-Rhiannon]

UGH!!

She is pregnant in this picture? And it is recent? I would say there has been major airbrushing if that's the case. I saw a recent picture of her in a mag the other day... in a bikini looking very pregnant. And she looked much fuller around the face.

I believe it's from the recent ELLE magazine and yep, this picture has been photoshopped within an inch of it's integrity...

Thought as much. It looks like a different person from the pictures I saw recently....
Here's a couple I found online:

I hate the hair, I hate the makeup, I hate the look. She is prettier than THAT and it's an image. ALL about image. I mean look at her a month ago, she needs to pick who she is before she has a baby.

[diamondsnake]

Why does her face look so dirty and icky? Yuck!

[Brwn_eyes0511]

That photo is just not such a good one of her. The other photos from that setion look pretty good! I'll try and find them and post them.

Her hair will grow out...is what I keep telling myself! lol

and hopefully go back to being brown...I don't care for her blonde hair much.

[ontheEdgeof17]

She's never really had long hair. Extensions. She's all fake in front of the camera.

[Miss Vicky]

I'm still confused. To her in general I say a big "ugh" but I feel like I'm missing something because I don't see what's wrong with the particular picture. She looks like.....well, a person. I don't keep up with any of the celebrity stuff but I have somehow seen the occasional, rather shocking image of her and others who to me may aswell be her, in hideous gear (or lack of gear). This one? Well I'm missing something but I don't really care so I guess I'll remain confused.

I'm with you, Lux. I don't find that particular picture especially revolting. A little insincere since she's posing all sweet-and-innocent like with her little stuffed animal when in actual fact she's a trashy little (insert favorite derogatory name here). And I too don't really care so I'll let everyone else continue in their conversation.

[GateandGarden]

A little insincere since she's posing all sweet-and-innocent like with her little stuffed animal when in actual fact she's a trashy little (insert favorite derogatory name here).That's the part about it that bothers me.

I am getting tired of bashing her, though. I figure she'll just continue to do some of the dumbest **** conceivable and that's a given. I was a fan before she started doing all that but I don't care for her music as much now and certainly not her. But that's about as much as I can say about it these days. And usually I can carry on about things much longer than that. :nod:

[wondergirl9847]

Coulda fooled me....airbrushed all to heck. LOL She looks just like her mother there. The smile and the nose. Go find a pic of her mama. I kinda like her hair, but not really on her. That make sense? LOL

I don't like her hair. It's horrible. My best friend is pregnant, 26, 7 months along and she didn't have to cut her hair...she remained the same, looks great.
I don't see why she cut her hair, but hey, none of my business. I just think it looks horrible.

I also don't like her makeup. The light lipstick looks horrendous.

Someone said it looked like a Sears catalog and it does.

She can look very pretty. I know she wants to look like a mom. But the people at ELLE magazine should be shot. They should have straightened her hair, put some natural yet darker makeup on her and let her just be herself..like the cover which is much, much better.

The ugh was the look, and the UGH was for how this isn't her. You see pics of her in the beginning of August wearing a bikini and screaming and acting wild and normal ( for her).

She is a star, by choice. She could have gone anywhere in the world and hid herself but she didn't. She wants to share this with the world. Her choices tho are laughable. How she carried herself...braless, stained, greasy. She looked horrible. Now suddenly she wants to clean up and be Donna Reed. It's hard to take it seriously and you wonder how much longer after the baby is born will she be seen in clubs half naked ( and she has gone to clubs while pregnant).

She is exploiting the baby. She is using it to change her image and it's sad. She couldn't just put out a good album or conduct herself in a different way. Instead she does a photo shoot that everyone will talk about and say OH BRITNEY...she's adorable. I don't buy it * and I won't buy it*.

So many people want to love her. Madonna is 47 years old. They want a new Madonna, someone new and Britney was the closest we got, people don't want to lose that.

[WELSH WITCH]

You know what, I feel sorry for the baby already.

Its statements like this that really upset me! Know one here, to my knowledge, knows or has even met Britney...correct? The public has an automatic perception about who Britney is due to the way the media has always portrayed her. Even though she has made mistakes...who in this world hasn't? It's just that her mistakes make the front page news. She is still a human being, and I think deserves respect, because it is impossible for us to know HER and who she is as a person! I'm happy for her, and wish her the best with her new family.

Then again, I really can't stand Christina...so who am I to speak?

[michelle2677]

and why can't you stand christina?? If I may ask....

[Brwn_eyes0511]

and why can't you stand christina?? If I may ask....

Just don't like her music, the way she talks mad sh*t about other celebs, including Brit...

Just a thing I guess.... :shrug:

Even if Brit wasn't a celebrity, I think she'd still be known around town as "that crazy barefooted pregnant lady". In a way I feel like she purposefully tries to make herself look goofy and look like **** in public.

[Nixxxed]

Waitaminute - we're not supposed to cuss on here any more, but we can post gross pics of Slutney? (and yes, every pic of her is gross...)

I'm clicking the Exclamation Point! I'm clicking it!!!

*LOL* this thread needs to be deleted...I mean..JEEEEEZZ there are CHILDREN on here for crying out loud!!!

(btw..that was not a crack at the moderators for the recent deletion of threads...it was more of ....."children ..(or anyone else for that matter) should not be subjected to this"......it's kinda hard to get your point across when typing.. :] )

[StevieNicksEO17]

Her hair is discusting. I liked it a lot better long!

[Brwn_eyes0511]

Her hair is discusting. I liked it a lot better long!

She cut it so it would grow back long...and all natural.

[JazmenFlowers]

Then again, I really can't stand Christina...so who am I to speak?

aww hell to the no! Christina has more talent in her pinkie than Britney (or Brit as you so affectionately refer to her) can ever hope for and Britney has even said so. Christina may look "trashy" to some and talk smack, but the bottom line is she doesn't give a flying f*** - she is who she is, will dress and say how she feels and could care less if I or you or anyone else agrees with her. I love Christina and her music, her talent and her ability to have more balls than most of us.

What are you - the devil's advocate of the board? Constantly taking a stance against popular flow here...it seems very fake to me, sorry, no offense. :shrug: First you defend Bush and now Britney...

[JazmenFlowers]

She is still a human being, and I think deserves respect, because it is impossible for us to know HER and who she is as a person!

I think her "reality" show Chaotic or whatever it was called pretty much confirmed what most have thought of her all along...I myself saw one episode and she confirmed all my suspicions -

[GateandGarden]

I think her "reality" show Chaotic or whatever it was called pretty much confirmed what most have thought of her all along...I myself saw one episode and she confirmed all my suspicions -Yeah, it truly was that bad. I got to know more about her from watching that than I ever wanted to know.

[JazmenFlowers]

not likely to grow back "long" and certainly not all natural - have you seen the pics of her in US Weekly; they showed her extensions, which start very high atop her head. I suspect the length she has now is about as much as she can get "naturally"

Britney is far from being natural in more ways than one, as is Miss Aguilera (before anyone goes there) - as are the majority of pop icons today

and Britney is who she is and doesn't give a f*ck! Facts are Britney has sold more records, and has been more of an influence on pop culture! Simple as that!

Also her kiss with Madonna was just ten times more hot than the Christina/Madonna one.

And Jesus, just because I have my own opinions about things doesn't mean that I like playing devil's advocate! How can I help what my opinions are...it's not something I think about all day long..."let me get back to the ledge so I can disagree with what every d*mn person is saying...hehe" :rolleyes: And if you would have been posting here as long as I have you would have known that I have always been a conservative Bush supporter...sorry for "messing" up the flow of things!

[CelticGypsy]

I am not a fan of Britney's but she is going to be a mother. Once that baby is born, maybe, just maybe she will change as a person and be a good mother. Heck, maybe her trashy hubby will finally become a good father? Sometimes, women who are like Britney's public image do change as people. Hell, look at Madonna. Some people grow up and do change. She looks happy and beautiful in the photos to me. Let her be happy at this time. She is human, not perfect. None of us are perfect.

A - I have been a member of the Ledge since the late 90's.

B - Bush is, imo, an arrogant idiot without the life experience, work experience, people experience or intelligence needed to run a country.

C - Your response is laughable. Selling more albums and influencing pop culture doesn't equal talent - if that's what you are suggesting. One instance that comes to mind is on her Onyx Tour that aired on cable television, first off she lipsynched 99% of the show, but when it came time for her "hit" ballad Everytime, she gave live singing a go - woops, bad idea...she sounded like she had swallowed rusty nails.

D - The Britney vs. Christina fight is so 2001 (we all know who has the goods; vocally and lyrically...and we'll see it in about 10 years) - move on...

ouch! hot, ain't it...:lol:

talent isn't always everything. some people like britney's music, others do not. my point was that there is obviously some that like it or she wouldn't have sold so many records...

Tell that the Christina who recently took YET ANOTHER snub at Britney in the news.

ouch! hot, ain't it...:lol:

actually no it's kinda cool...:cool:

[macfanken]

The hair is hideous, she looks like a soccer mom! :lol:

[JazmenFlowers]

:) again, it's nothing personal and I ain't gonna sit here and act like I don't dance to every Britney song that comes on in the club 'cause I do! I just get very protective over my 3 divas: Stevie, Christina and Barbra...

Well, I like Stevie of course and i like Barbara (talent wise...not politics! haha)
But have to say a big "NO THANKS" to Christina!

[LuckyCharms]

The hair is hideous, she looks like a soccer mom! :lol:

I know!! My mom has had that hair-do since 1979!
All I can say is she had better not go to Penny's to snach up all the pleated dockers, I want my kids to be in sports too! LOL!
Tee hee, I just got this mental image of her handing out snacks to the kids after the game saying "Oh my gawd! Look up my nose!"
Silly Britney!

[LongBlackScarf]

I believe it's from the recent ELLE magazine and yep, this picture has been photoshopped within an inch of it's integrity...

She does look like her mother in that picture. For her child's sake, I hope she is a good mother.

What influence has that bimbo had on pop culture?

[GateandGarden]

What influence has that bimbo had on pop culture?I'm always seeing ten-year-olds in skimpy outfits in the mall, Wal-Mart, etc. That's probably her big contribution. :rolleyes:

It started with Madonna and really, for girls a little older, in the 70's with hot pants.

[GateandGarden]

It started with Madonna and really, for girls a little older, in the 70's with hot pants.It did? It's just that she's been popular the whole time I've been alive and it wasn't until pretty recently that it seemed so acceptable for a little girl to show her midriff. Maybe Madonna started it but Britney really got it going.

When I was growing up, all the little ten year olds at the mall were dressing like Madonna :shrug: - who really somewhat stole the look from punk rock.

[dissention]

but Britney really got it going.

She didn't do it alone, she had Christina and all the other pop "acts" helping her out. I would hardly even give them much credit for it, either, considering that the sexual desensitizing of society and the lack of true parenting have both been prevalent for quite a few years.

She pilfered her entire act from Debs. Madge has practically even admitted as much.

[The Tower]

I didn't think anyone cared about Zitney to begin with- other than pervy straight guys who have fantasies about screwing jailbait.

Didn't she "retire" from the soft porn business to "have a family"? Go away already.

And if you would have been posting here as long as I have you....
You mean since waaaaaaaay back in January of this year??? :laugh:

I think you and Jason have a point. So, I guess we have to go back to your first statement, since what Britney's doing doesn't appear to be new. So, what has she contributed to pop culture?

So, what has she contributed to pop culture?


Besides for a few more genital warts and poorly written "songs," I've no clue. :woohoo:

Nothing. She has detracted from our culture by continuing to perpetuate the "innocent whore" routine. I can't understand why anyone would look up to this skidmark. :shrug:

Isn't she like... 24 or something? She looks about 50 here. :distress:
I like her though.
