It's not really about her. If she's seen it, she might not love the way it was done, but I think she'd see the reasoning and agree with it.

I totally get that it was a criticism of the media . . . but I was just shocked that they used a shotgun blast to the head and then a headless Britney to prove their point. I think my shock was due to the fact that she does have bipolar illness (which is an illness where 20% of all people commit suicide), and to me, that really isn't too funny. There are plenty of other ways to prove their point, without resorting to this specific characterization.

JMO.
