Boycott Britney

Is it a boycott if I weren't going to buy her album in the first place? In that case, N'Sync, the Backstreet Boys, and Michael Jackson are all on my "boycott" list!

I just wonder what all those people in 1956 and 1964 who thought people who liked that greasy Elvis dude or those hairy Beatle critters would burn in hell, would think if Brittney Spears had dropped into their midst?

She has no talent, unlike the Beatles or Elvis -- she can't even sing live at her own shows.

[NYCVirago]

Yeah, I saw Jessica Simpson in concert (I was roped into attending the horrible MTV TRL show -- the horror, the horror!) She dresses pretty trampy as well, and she also doesn't sing live in concert.

She could be a goody two shoes and pander to the kids and the Brantford tour bus senior citizens and be wealthy but live in relative obscurity much like LeAnne Rhimes

LeAnn Rimes is also trying to do the sex kitten thing (have you seen any recent pictures of her?) but it's been a big flop.

Thanks. You had to remind me of two horrific Cher songs, Half Breed and Dark Lady, which was bad enough. Then you mention the Brady Bunch's American Pie (nothing matches hearing their teenybopper voices singing "I saw Satan laughing with delight"). What are you, some kind of sick music torturer?

All these posts on Britney is...just...CRAZY.

This guy is complaining because he knows she is a public tease but can't help being her private admirer. He sits alone in the dark secretly wanting her, dreaming of her....nerver mind.

Right now at this very moment he's scrounging up the cash to bid on that $20,000 encounter with Britney that's being auctioned on eBay.

No, if he was, he would have brought up Mrs. Miller, who released several albums including a Greatest Hits compilation for Capitol Records in the 1960s.

What's more, they've released a CD of her warbling. Listen to some selections here

Are you gonna take me home tonight ?
Ah down beside that red firelight
Are you gonna let it all hang out ?
Fat bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go round

Hey I was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad
But I knew life before I left my nursery - huh
Left alone with big fat Fanny
She was such a naughty nanny
Heap big woman you made a bad boy out of me
Hey hey!
Wooh

I've been singing with my band
Across the wire across the land
I seen every blue eyed floozy on the way, hey
But their beauty and their style
Went kind of smooth after a while
Take me to them dirty ladies everytime

C'mon
Oh won't you take me home tonight ?
Oh down beside your red firelight
Oh and you give it all you got
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round

Hey listen here
Now I got mortgages on homes
I got stiffness in ma' bones
Ain't no beauty Queens in this locality (I tell you)
Oh but I still get my pleasure
Still get my greatest treasure
Heap big woman you gonna make a big man out of me

Now get this
Oh (I know) you gonna take me home tonight (please)
Oh down beside that red firelight
Are you gonna let it all hang out ?
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round yeah

Ooh yeah oh yeah them fat bottomed girls

I never heard of Mrs. Miller until today; now, after hearing a few of those samples, I wish I had never heard of her, ever. Was this Mitch Miller's wife or something?
