Oops, she did it again. Britany Spears got married at a private residence last night in Somewhere, California. This will be her longest marriage if she makes it to Tuesday. Her first ended atfter only 55 hours. Maybe she should just kinda lay off the banging and try to be less ho-like, no?

I think (and I can't believe I've thought about this, but I did watch some of her videos last week), I think Britney does not like her life and is trying to change it. She doesn't know what she's doing, but bless her heart, she is trying.
I read one article about that said what we are witnessing is a pop star on strike. She's been in the business and under the thumb of her handlers since she was fifteen.
I wouldn't choose this method of breaking free, but more power to her - I hope it works so she can grow up on her own.
Think about it - the last marriage lasted 55 hours, but that's because her people freaked out completely and paid the guy to go away. How incredibly humiliating - compared to the current treasure, I'll her handlers are just LONGING for that small town boy that's known her for twenty years and doesn't already have children with someone else. We are watching a train wreck - don't begrudge her her money, she's going to need it to get rid of this loser soon.

Watching the Britney implosion makes me wonder why people want to trash their childrens' lives this way. Not that it's all the parents' fault, but one has to wonder about the sanity of parents that let their underage teen prance about on stage half naked in front of millions of people and allow her to earn millions of dollars...oh...wait...now I get it...
Isn't it funny how money changes the way some people perceive their children. What we're watching with Brit is nothing new. If we look back sixty years or so, we can watch another young starlet implode...
her name was Judy Garland.

ha ha ha ha ha... ever notice how people only say "bless her/his/its heart if it's really ugly or wrong or stupid or something. My sister has an ugly baby. I mean... UGLY. U.G.L.Y. Someone slapped it with the ugly as hell stick. She showed it to my grandmother. "Is that your baby?" grandma said. "Yes. His name is Andrew." Abby said. "Bless his heart."

I didn't MEAN it rude. I mean, I didn't mean that she's failing or that she's doing any of the things that seem to have been conveyed. I mean, it literally, that I think she's trying. You can be trapped by any kind of life, and what do you do when you've been a one-woman industry, hit 22, don't WANT to do what you've been doing since you were 16, but the hundred people around you won't let you quit because you are their source of wealth? And then in a fit of optimism and hope you marry a childhood sweetheart and have a humiliating annullment two days later. She's flipping off a lot of people, and not doing it particularly well, but then, I didn't do it particularly well either. Thank heavens no one was photographing me 24 hours a day when I was 20. I didn't date a skanky babyDaddy like that and my versiono of breaking free just meant taking coed road trips and staying out until six in the morning, but then, I didn't have a whole lot to break free from.
No, she's not handling this well, but I'm proud of her for trying to handle it at all. There are an awful lot of compliant, pretty women who stay in the Dumb Blonde Paycheck role. I'm not impressed with the guy, but I'm GLAD she's not Jessica Simpson anymore.

*sigh* I can't believe I've thought about this this much. Anyway, here's an article from Salon about it. You have to watch an ad to get a day pass, but it's worth it.

Well, I mean, she has been engaged to this guy forever, and she's been planning the wedding for forever. It's not like this is a new thing, it just means she managed to dupe the press into not finding out till after the wedding. I'm not sure why this makes her an idiot. She is allowed to get married, right?

What? Did you just actually say that and mean it? That's about as unoriginal and cliche as it gets, dude. And you're calling her the idiot of the day? Heh.

Actually katharina, I think you're right. That's my gut feeling too.
While I don't think she's going about it the right way and this marriage will probably be a horrible train wreck, I really hope she actually does find a way out of it all.

I wish the public could get to the point where it didn't care about the personal lives of celebrities.

Ooh. I'm a power monger, but have yet to claim a political affiliation. Apparently, I'm a Democrat.

HA HA HA HA HAHA... CHECK THIS SH** OUT!!!!
Ok ok ok.. this is too hilarious.
McAllen, Tx. Yesterday afternoon. Some guy tries to break into a nice looking house. It has burgler bars... his abdomen gets stuck and he just can't get out... Thankfully, though, he's broken into the kitchen and near the phone.. so he picks it up and dials 911 for help. They came, bail him out.. and arrest in ass on the spot. HA!
This man Is Turgan's Idiot Of The Day.

hell, they can go faster than THAT, some of them I like the end, about crashing on a motorcycle at 200 MPH... saying it won't look pretty... I think it'll look just as non-pretty if you crash one going 75 MPH. hyuk hyuk hyuk. *snickers annoyingly at his own lame joke*

I'm pretty sure I know what would happen. "Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light."
