Do her lips get tired during a "concert"?
As opposed to the eloquent "She Loves You, Yeah, Yeah Yeah"? Kidding aside, I am consistently amazed at the amount of vitriol directed at Spears. She has zero political interests/leanings (as far as I can tell), and doesn't seem to cause anybody any harm (except the teary fans here, I suppose). Why the strong emotions over a simple pop star?
All right, you don't have to knock the whole South (even if she DOES come from Louisiana). She's one of the Disney kids, like the N'Sync boys and Christina Aguilera. She was hyped by Disney and its marketing partners, then I guess went out on her own.
Time will tell how long she lasts, but I blame the parents for allowing their kids to emulate girls like her, the same way parents of young girls bought clothes so their little darlings could dress like Cyndi Lauper and Madonna in the 80s. Pre-teens don't usually have the money to purchase their own clothes, so parents CAN exercise a veto over clothing purchases. The problem is with spineless parents who are desparate for their kids to 'fit in' with the other little hellions at school.
