BRITNEY SPEARS: THE COLORADO OF CELEBRITIES?
How did she get to be the girl checking out of rehab and shaving her head, the proverbial 2-10 season of a celebrity?

Britney, like Colorado, had her day in the sun. Consistently in the national media (for good things) and competing for the top spot in her field year in and year out. She had her Bill McCartney years. So what happened?


A few bad relationships…

Things get out of hand….

The pressure mounts in the media….

Maybe Dan Hawkins can save her.

I’ve seen this one before. Next, she appears on Saturday Night Live and shreds a picture of the Pope.

If you don’t have the cojones to shave all your hair completely off, then go play intramurals, brother!

Ironic- or maybe irony isn’t the word- but in a song Pink says she is tired of being compared to “damn Brittany Spears!” now- Brittany will be compared to her (in strange hair-does)
But in all seriousness, finally we know that the shower curtain matches the ceramic floor tile. In case you were wondering

You got to give her 4 out of 5 start in the loooney rankings…the only reason she is not a full 5 star recruit is the level of consistency she shows in applying the “shaved ” look to her entire body.

When 50 Cent is saying you need help, then you know you’re having problems. Next thing you know, Michael Jackson will be screening her calls and saying he doesn’t want to associate himself with that crazy bitch.

Maybe Hawkins already got a hold of her seeing as she’s rocking the Dalai Lama’s ‘do. The next step, however, might be Bam Bam Bigelow style head tattoos.

Dave110 says:
See I wouldn’t have as much of an issue with this if she kept the style. She actually looks pretty good with the shaved head, but wearing a wig is pretty much admitting that you were trashed when you made the decision to cut your hair.

Hats Dept:
If I put on my:
1) People Magazine Hat: BSpears cut her hair because she cannot believe she left J. Timberlake for a set of losers, while his career is right on target and hers is in the toilet. Plus, that blasted Cristina Aguilera, although a bit whacky, is doing fine.
2) Sports Illustrated: BS is depressed about Beyondsay getting the cover of the Swimsuit Issue.
3) Rivals/Scout Hat: BS is depressed about USC getting McKnight, instead of LSU.
4) News of the World Hat: Aliens abducted BS’s brain and the resident alien is up to no good.
5) Time Magazine Hat: BS wants to get a jump start on the “Man of the Year” award.
6) Blue Gray Sky Hat: Not even Domers, who are used to a certain type of woman, would not even hit on BS anymore.

She’s just trying to pimp her new brand of dome wax.
Continuing with the naming convention of adjectives that could possibly describe Britney Spears, the marketing agency have decided to name it “Irrelevant.” you should be seeing it in stores soon.

Anyway, Now when I look at her, I don’t see slutty schoolgirl, I start to think about the First Star Trek Movie.
Speaking of Seinfeld….”Live Brittany! Damn it! Live like it is the first day of the rest of your life….because in a way, it is.”

I thought Spurrier was getting some speed down there. If you can’t outrun a South Carolina police officer (I’m picturing some Rosco P. Coltrane types) then how fast are you?

2nd Chances Dept:
America loves second acts. (Just note all of the excitement over the Police touring again. Even though the last time they toured BS was not born.)
BS is in her 20’s. BS has enough time to get her b.s. together and make it a go again. And, if all fails here, she can always go to Europe where she will be huge, huge I tell you.
The only problem I think is drugs. She looks like she is going the Whitney Houston route and will end up drinking or drugging herself into oblivion.
Maybe she ought to take up Rosie O’Donnell’s offer. At least she would still look hot next to that beast (Rosie).

I wouldn’t even look at her until she ran off to Vegas with that guy in 2000. Then, when she was 19 all of a sudden it was alright for an old man to look at her.
Completely understandable behavior now though. She’s 25 years old. Nowhere to go but down.
