Brit Gets Into The Holiday Spear-it!

So pretty!!

Reading the comment about little Jayden calling out for Daddy makes me think of the awesome upcoming cover of People magazine with Kevin and the two children. They look so happy and smiling. I've never seen them smile like that when around Britney. :o(

she looks drugged up

if she can't preform live anymore, wtf is she planning to do when she has to tour? maybe she'll get a hologram of herself and put it on stage and hope that no one notices

This is just sad! Yes, she looks great and dressed very nicely but it just seems like her parents and her manager are trotting her around from place to place like a cash cow! There is no joy, no sparkle of the old Britney. I hope they are not making a mistake and pushing her too soon just for the almight buck!

she should quit now! its only gonna get worse

12:15 they are and aint it sad!! people shpuld not buy her cd or tickets that tour is gonna break her I dont know why people cant see that shes just not into it

She remains the most useless and worthless figure in the entertainment industry.

12:11

Well you are not a part of their lives now are you. You have not seen every picture taken of them have you. You are just buying trouble because you want to hassle Britney and her supporters. Her children love her and if you believe FedeX's hogwash you really are dumb. Neither of these two are all that great at parenting according to their track records unless you think getting high and sloshy drunk like Fedex has repeatedly been shown doing or well doing many of the things Britney has done. No one is perfect and they are both works in progress. But neither is any better than the other. And you are just a dumb ass who would say anything to stir shit up on this site. Defending Kevin Federline is no different than defending Britney. Kevin is very flawed. Think about it. He screws anything that walks and when he gets a woman pregnant he suddenly disappears. You really are not so dumb that you think he wants those kids because he loves them so much. They come with a huge paycheck. If Britney suddenly went bankrupt he would not want those kids. He would want her to take them and he would move on to the next sucker except it would be a lot harder for him to get a woman of substance after being with Britney and leaving her after she had his children especially after trading Shar who was pregnant for Britney. Oh and by the way I have yet to see anyone confirm that the child Shar was caqrrying was in fact Kevin's. Where is the paternity test. Oh yes none of my business huh just like any of this is none of yours.

Wow, she looks awful purdy though! She can clean up!

Being of reasonable mind,and also respectful minded toward ms spears.I find the childs cry for his daddy to be interesting.

I AM NOT A FAN BUT A REASONABLE ADULT

SHE IS A PATHETIC LOSER THAT CAN'T EVEN COMFORT HER OWN CHILD!!!! Good Lord, Britney, get the hell out already you f*cking suck.

I think it's totatlly hilarious that people feel the need to embelish or down right makeup false stories about Britney at a time like this when she's doing amazingly well. There was just a statement released by NBC to Access Hollywood stating that Britney was never scheduled to perform at the Rockafeller tree lighting. Maybe there should be research done before false stories are printed. I'd also love to know who the "source" is that was talking about what went down at the Rainbow room, probably someone who excels at writing fiction. Also, I'm glad Kevin's on the cover of People. It's just more publicity for Britney and positive too because he didn't say anything bad about her.

Aww JJ was upset and wanted his daddy.

Of course she couldn't possibly do a real 'live' session since she cannot sing live to save her life (or career). And what a predictable 'parenting style'. She can't function as a normal parent would, so she hands off the kid to one of her handlers as the poor tyke screams "DADDY!!!"! No wonder why her kid screamed that. Can't sing, can't dance worth a damn anymore, and most importantly, she sucks major ass as a 'mom'! But hurry up and go buy multiple copies of her crap! It will help her build up a false sense of confidence and usher in the reality she has coming to her! Watch the poorly constructed facade crack!

12:35 and I suppose you believe in Santa Claus too! NBC CAN'T say anything negative about her because it is not common professionalism to do so and they don't want to hurt any chance of her coming back, when/if she ever becomes the mega star she used to be. ((Which really is highly unlikely)). And I'm glad Kevin is finally speaking out. He has been nothing but galiant keeping his silence all of this time. She is so disgusting.

@K I also heard that. I love how everything is "source" but not "PR of NBC". You'd think they'd call NBC to fact-check. This is like the G-A-Y thing all over again.

Make that 'were and are marketing tools'

12:38 - I give you a standing ovation!! **claps hands and bows down**

HAHA SHE LOOKS SO SAD!

Britney can't dance anymore because of her two knee injuries she had. She hurt her knee in 1999 and had to have it operated on. Then she hurt the same knee badly in 2004 and had to have it operated on again (the same knee). If you look on some of the Britney fan sites, you can find high quality pictures of her knee. You can see some really big operation cuts on her knee, three of them, and they are two to three inches long.

And if you remember, the insurance companies would not cover for her when she had to cancel her Onyx tour in 2004. She then had to cover the cost of the cancelled tour herself.

Also, the insurance companies that are covering this tour right now have probably made some stipulations in the contract that she can't do anything stressful on her knee (such as heavy dancing like she used to do) or they will not cover her. She can't dance anymore like she used to and never will be able to again. All she can do now on stage is lip-synch and walk around. And that is not very exciting at all!

Britney's handlers and her father are ust using her for a chash cow. How sad, she is going to end up having another major breakdown soon.

12:38 Reviews of her public appearances indicate the "poorly constructed facade" is already showing signs of cracks. The tour will make it worse.

I thought Britney said in her documentary that she now hates parties and she can't stand being around people anymore. She said she just wants to stay home and read her romance novels. Also, when I saw the video clip of her at the GAY club the other night, she looked like she was NOT having fun at all. So I don't believe for a minute that she is enjoying this "party". Her handlers are pushing her way to hard and way to fast. She is NOT ready for all of this attention. She is still suffering a lot, does not have her kids back (Kevin still has custody). She said in her interview that she is unhappy and just wants to go away so she can be left alone. But her management and Larry are pushing all of this to promoter her. She is unstable and having mental problems. That is why she is under a legal conservatorship. And her fans are the ones that are going to kill her with all the pushing. She may not even make it to the tour coming up or she may cancel because of the high stress levels on her now.

This tour is giong to break her big time and put her in the hospital again. Then her tour will be cancelled. She will then have to pay the expense for it like she did for the Onyx tour that she cancelled. The will then lose the last of her money and end up broke!

Britney’s fans and her management need to let up on Brit. The girl just went through a nightmare for the last few years. She ended up on a psych ward twice because she went crazy. You can tell in her performances of late that she is just not in to it anymore. She has even said so a few times. She sometimes looks like she is about to breakdown. It is her management and her fans that are going to kill her. A lot of people feel this way who have really taken a good look at her. But her fans just want to party at her expense. If she does have a breakdown again soon, it will be the fault of the industry and her fans. They will be responsible for pushing her to hard and to fast. You can tell she is not in to it anymore. She needs some real peace and quiet, her kids back, the conservatorship over, and her freedom!

I think you are very right. In California it is very, and I mean VERY hard to put someone under a c-ship. Courts will only do it after a lot of psychological tests and doctors have made it very clear the person has some major mental problems. And that they just can't take care of themselves to the point that it may kill them, or their life is in great danger if they are left alone. Basically they are mentally at the level of a kid or someone with real thinking problems. Yet here we see her "team" and dad putting her up for sexual sale, then pushing her to tour to make money for everyone. Britney has millions ($120,000,000), and royalties that come in all the time for the rest of her life. She does not need the money, but they do!

The poor girl is mental. That is why a court of law put her under a legal c-ship. You don't do that unless you are really in bad shape mentally. She is lost and unstable. And the first thing her dad and manager do is have her strip naked for her video Womanizer. Then they put her on a tour. That's like taking a child and pushing them to do all of those things when they are not able to understand those kinds of things yet. To have someone like this poor woman, who has mental problems, under such stress and sexual situations is really sick. They need to back of off Britney until she is better, far better. Let her do those things after her mind is back and she is legally able to take care of herself and understand the consequences of her own decisions.

Poster 12:25pm - damn do you even read what you wrote - you bash a poster by saying they don't know anything about Britney because they are not part of her life and don't know what is going on and then you proceed to bash Kevin and assume shit you couldn't possibly know because YOU DON'T LIVE WITH HIM AND ARE NOT PART OF HIS LIFE!

Grow up!

12:50 It's possible. Many performers go broke.

I think she should go home and get her life, mind and kids in order, get out of the conservatorship and become sane first. Then she can maybe try for a comeback a few years from now. She is so rich and has so much money, why does she need to tour? She should prove to the public and the courts (and the judge) that she loves her babies and that they are far more important to her then her career and a comeback. All she is doing with this attempt at a comeback is proving to the public that her career, money and fame are more important then her babies. It makes her look selfish. Also, she looks very unhappy in her documentary and on stage. So it looks like she is not even ready for it yet, and will break down. I think a lot of people are a lot more worried about her then you may think. She is very rich; she does not need the money right now. She needs her sanity, her kids, and to get out of the conservatorship. A lot of the "haters" may not hate her as much as you think. They may just be angry at her choices and priorities.

12:52 such is the MENTALity of a Britney Spears Fan! LMFAO because they are as dumb as she is.

Micheal Jackson was the King of Pop for a very long time. He was huge and really, really rich and wealthy. He had top records and songs for years like Britney, now look at where he is. The world now hates him and he is broke!

If drugs aren't going to kill her maybe her newly developed eating disorder will.

She probably can't dance or sing because she smokes like 2 packs a day and was up to FIVE packs at some points! FIVE frickin' packs! That's not just a chimney, but a chimney fire! Now even her regular voice makes her sound like some chain smoking hick waitress at a sleazy truck stop (which she would probably be if not for a pushy stage mom). Just one more thing she's done to herself on her long list of self sabotage.

12:56

The same is now going to happen to Britney.

12:52-2 Great post!

Britney is going to end up just like Michael Jackson. Broke and a child abuser. The world is hating on her more and more every day. It's building up to an explosion.

Yeah but Shitney has no clue that every day more and more people dislike her because all of her yes people tell her how fabulous she is! She doesn't even know why people are saying COMEBACK!! She obviously has no idea that critics said her career was over after he VMA disaster. Dumb broad.

12:48-2, she said that she's not into partying AFTER her many prior comments about how much she misses those very same things. The very things that assisted in her downfall. In one particular interview, it was the most emotion she showed in the entire interview. Not emotion about the kids, not emotion about the rehabs and psyche ward visits, but tears over how much she misses partying and that old part of the lifestyle. Now which version are you going to believe?

12:54 I have to leave but I wanted to take a minute to thank you for your intelligent and well-reasoned comment. I’m not a fan and not a hater. Overall, I’m neutral.

Review:
Unfortunately, the same weekend “Britney: For the Record” aired, videos of Spears performing her single in Germany and on Britain’s "American Idol"-like “The X Factor” circulated online. All the moves were there, but the singer went through them as if she were counting down the seconds until she could run off stage.

Review:
But for now, Spears’ comeback feels like one assigned to her. Should she decide she wants in, perhaps then the fireworks will follow.

Review:
Sunday’s heavily hyped MTV documentary on the singer, “Britney: For the Record,” also made no attempt to hide the singer’s mood swings, One minute she was joking around, but for most of the program, she seemed lost in her own thoughts.

Review:
But the fire in her eyes? And Britney's once consistent ability to turn it on when the curtain rises? That appears to be absent, at least at the moment. In its place we’ve got the former pop princess on autopilot, and it’s as devastating to watch as her 2007 MTV VMA performance of “Gimme More.”

One guaranteed way to shorten a career is to oversaturate it with a constant media blitz like her handlers are doing right now. There are some fairly smart people behind the machine and surely they realize what they are doing, but the need for fast cash must be blinding everyone. It doesn't help the marketing blitzkrieg out much when their product is not performing up to expectations either. The MTV infomercial special drew in incredibly low ratings. Ratings even worse than MTV's other craptacular specials like The Hills. And that's saying something. The Spears Machine must obviously be trying to get all they can while the getting is good. The product seems to be fairly expendable with a shelf life nearing expiration.

Review:
Britney Spears' Performance was anything but a comeback

Review:
Out-of-synch lip-synching. Lethargic movements!

Why doesn't she do a Christmas Special w/the boys? I think it would be really cute, & I'm sure they would love to be on stage (just for a minute)w/their Mom.
Just trying to think creative, that's all. She really needs to interact more w/her boys. They are too precious!! Blink- & they'll be grown!!

What's with all these weird "Reviews" being posted one after another?? Is someone being paid to post negative stuff about Britney on gossip sites? Why?

^^ i agree with you about the weird posts.

the person is talking out of their ass like they know her personally.

i would love to start disecting their life and how they are in their thinking process, which seems pretty obsessive with britney.

OCD.

She cant even have a nice birthday dinner with her boys without them crying for there dad !! she could never do a xmas special with them. GMA they cryed all they do is cry when there with her or should I say The weekend with there nannies

I find the reviews to be quite interesting. Whats the matter, truth hurt?

1:18, do you really feel like the kids should be exploited like that? Shoving them in front of a camera for ratings cuteness surely won't be a major benefit to them. Yeah, people want to see them, but that is not exactly what is going to help them out. If anything, it will certainly just add to the feeding frenzy.

If Britney did a Christmas special with her kids, she would probably end up cooking one of them.

Thanks for posting the reviews. I read some of them yesterday.

Maybe Marlboro can underwrite a X-mas special. Seeing as how loyal a customer she is! 'Look! Jayden's got a little jacket with the Marlboro emblem on it! How cute!'

Poor Britney is clueless. So sad.

Yay go brit

Jayden, if Santa gives you duck tape and rope.........RUN LIKE THE WIND!!!

Review:
All that stands between Spears and a clean slate is that final "R," revitalization. "Circus" is a strong step in the right direction - a return to her poppier roots with tracks that build on 2007's underrated electro-dance effort "Blackout."

Review:
"Comeback" doesn't even come close to describing what Britney Spears has done on her new album, arriving in stores Tuesday, her 27th birthday. Not only is "Circus" (Jive) the best album of her career, but it could return her to the kind of massive, multiplatinum sales that she hadn't seen since the turn of the century.

Review:
Like any good circus, Britney's version will leave you thoroughly entertained.
She's churned out a perfectly viable album that telegraphs self-awareness, sexual confidence and her most sought-after commodity, control.
Songs here are far better than music by such a troubled and supposedly doomed veteran has any right to be.

Review:
The monster hit "Womanizer" is only the beginning of the radio-ready barrage Spears is about to throw down. The title track, written by Dr. Luke, is another sleek dance-floor filler, as is the dizzying "Mannequin." And she has the disco-influenced "Lace and Leather," with its scratch guitar and Chic-inspired bass line.

Review:
Circus is a top-rate pop album that, with a little bit of justice, will be afforded the same sort of longevity as her brilliant early singles.

Review:
The singer does double duty as a dance diva and brokenhearted balladeer. It's no easy feat, but when Spears shoves aside the tabloid trauma and hooks up with the right producers--on this album it's Guy Sigsworth, Danja, Dr. Luke and Max Martin--she is in a class of her own.

Review:
Halfway through, Circus shifts from defiant booty calls to subtler material; suddenly, it's a first-rate electro-pop album.

Review:
Most of her new songs are crisp, cunning dance-pop with a touch of schoolyard singsong. Just before they grow mechanical, they’re zapped with new effects or catchy melodic interludes.

Lumino Magazine

"Surely, there are those who will dare claim that Circus is the album that solidifies Britney Spears' place as the Queen of Pop. But what Circus really says about Britney is that her truest credentials were of being the empress of illusion at a time when it was chic to package fantasy with a wink and a smile. Nowadays it seems you can't get by on illusion anymore. Too bad no one told Britney Spears that."

Telegraph

After an onslaught of criticism of her mimed performance on the X Factor last week, she appeared on Good Morning America (GMA) in the US following the release of her album Circus.

She delivered one of her ranchiest ever performances, but it was not enough to stop her being slated on the internet. She was branded "talentless" and told she was "better off in porn" in comments left on the GMA website.

Britney Spears Good Morning America appearance on Tuesday morning to celebrate her 27th birthday and the release of her new album, Circus, was more of a catastrophe than a comeback. Clad in too-tight clothes for her no-longer teenage frame and a vapid, blank look throughout most of her performance, Spears failed to live up to the hype of promotion for her Good Morning America birthday bash.

Britney Spears performance and launch of her new album, Circus, on the Good Morning America show in Tuesday was much hyped by endless commercials and media speculation. But despite the candy-sweet hopes that her performance on the show, along with her MTV documentary special on Sunday, would bring the sexy back to Spears -- the troubled pop starlet just couldn’t step up to the plate and deliver a home run.

Spears’ performance on Good Morning America was vapid and lackluster and more amusing than astounding watching the former musical heavyweight dancing in an unflattering leather outfit surrounded by circus clowns. The overall impression was more of Spears being just another circus freak, rather than the ringmaster of the show.

Gary Barlow: Britney Spears was rubbish on The X Factor
Take That frontman unimpressed by her miming
Wednesday, 3 December 2008

Gary Barlow has hit out at Britney Spears for not singing live on The X Factor.

The singer mimed Womanizer when she appeared on the ITV show on Saturday.

‘I don’t see the point of Britney anymore, she was rubbish on the show,’ the Take That frontman, 37, tells the Daily Mirror.

‘I think she’s more famous than she deserves to be now. I don’t like her new song either.

'Her old stuff was great but maybe she should have spent more time on this one.’

But Gary can understand why Britney, 27, could have been put off by Simon Cowell, 49.

‘You walk out there and Cowell’s just looking at you,’ he tells The Sun.

'It puts you on edge straight away. I’d be bloody nervous.'

Why are people insisting on booking her on their shows?? It's over...she never had talent, now she's just a crazy. NO THANKS!

What is with the moron who keeps cutting and pasting the same posts over and over and over again?? Get some new material!

Love the review at 2:46. Pretty much says it all about Twitney. It's all over for her.

Mirror

Take That slam Britney Spears for miming: "We don't see the point of her anymore"

Pop veterans Take That have slapped a custard pie straight in Britney Spears’ face.
Their albums – both called Circus – went head-to-head this week and so far Take That are making it look trap-easy.

The lads broke the record for first-day sales – shifting 133,000 copies – and are sitting pretty at No1 in the midweek charts.

Britney, meanwhile, is at No3 – and her disastrous X Factor mime act on Saturday would have done her few favours.

Gary Barlow and Howard Donald saw it, open-mouthed along with the rest of the nation, and have seized the chance to let her have both barrels.

Speaking at the international launch of their new album in Paris, Gary told us: “I don’t see the point of Britney anymore, she was rubbish on the show. I think she’s more famous than she deserves to be now.”

she is so fake on these pics!!! she even has to imitate madonna in performances with no comparison. If I were madonna Id be very upset with her!!! what kind of talent is that???

And that’s from one of pop’s nice guys...

The week before Britney’s “silent night”, Take That performed live on the X Factor and Gary went on: “Why come on a show like that and mime? I don’t like her new song either. Her old stuff was great but maybe she should have spent more time on this one.”

A bit catty, Gary!

“But I listen to more bands now anyway, like Kings of Leon and Coldplay,” sniffed Gary. “I don’t really listen to many pop acts.”

Swigging beer next to him, Howard was a tad gentler towards their chart rival.

He said: “The truth is all the contestants on X Factor are so talented and were able to sing and dance live, so why couldn’t Britney do it? It’s the whole point of the show and her miming looked stupid. It’s not that she can’t do it, Britney is really talented and can sing – I just don’t think she understood the show.

“I think probably she was made to do it as a promotional opportunity in England. Britney is unlikely to have had a lot of say in it. The contestants did a better job than her. I’m glad she’s back but X Factor wasn’t right for her.”

To show Britney how it’s done, the boys played a fantastic LIVE gig at Paris VIP Room on Monday night.

They invited us along to the circus-themed gig along with a select crowd of friends and fans. Then it was time to party. Mark Owen made a beeline for us – the honorary godmums of his new daughter Willow Rose.

We bet she’s in good voice... unlike Britney.

Britney Spears X Factor Disaster
Posted on December 2nd, 2008

U.S. Britney Spears fan's may be excited that she announced her new tour in March, but UK fans are still blasting her for her boring appearance on The X Factor TV show. Spears has made a few appearances to perform her number 1 single Womanizer, and they have all been the same -- pathetic and embarrassing. Basically Brit walks around lip-syncing to her CD while seizure inducing images flash in the background. The sad thing is that her X Factor appearance was the best out of the three that she has performed so far. It also reminds me of Reese Witherspoon's dance scene from the movie Vanity Fair. (See both videos below) See Germany Video here

Also Hollywood Rag reports that Spears pissed off more than the fans.
"Britney also reportedly angered show chief Simon Cowell by refusing to watch the contestants perform her songs on the program, and banned show judges - Simon, Dannii Minogue, Louis Walsh and Cheryl Cole - from coming into her room to meet her."

A source said: “When the judges went to meet her, her security wouldn’t let anyone past. You have never seen so many security guards. Even around the judges’ dressing rooms was sealed off by Britney’s security people.”

The kids loves their father from the people mag cover they look so happy to be with him. never have i seen those boys as happy as with their father. She have miss all the special bonding time with the boys that she will never get back. she abodon Jj at such a young age kevin raise those boys alone and from the pic on people u can see that they adore him. of course she cancel, she found out that u have to perform live at that show something that she can't do. I love london, they are honest and do not kiss ass like America media.

It is the bad people she was talking about posting or it is the KFed people...these people are way too into her personal life...they are jealous...tells me they know her...
I did cry when Britney said she is sad...she is a wonderful actress, but you can see she is sad...KFED messed her up do you think she married the man had two babies for him to walk out the door...he didn't love her he got pleasure out of telling People Mag...that he isn't in love with her but he loves her...what a bunch of BS...he did that because he does hate her...he humilates her time and time again...so KFED people get off the site...we all know who you are...

Britney looks amazing! Great to see you looking so beautiful again :]

well Joy, acording to kevin'she divorce him without even telling him and she said he left her ,so who should we believe? kevin said he not in love with her but he loves her as she is the mother of his kids. At least he is honest, she started bad mouthing him because she is bitter ,but he chose to take the high way so of course people will have respect for him. The kids are happy to be with their father and little kids do not fake emotions. Anytime she with those boys ,they always look sad when they are not crying. Even of her reality show, they cry.

3:27- Madonna loves britney!!! watch "for the record" idot shes in it...and says nothing but great things about her...

i would bad mouth kevin anyday if i realized he married me for my money...hes a loser...the reason britney got so screwed up was all b/c of him! the reason he came out with that story and said everything sooo nicely, was intentional.. he wanted to look like the better person thats why they released that story after she bad mouthed him....hes still getting drunk and going out all the time, britney didnt even drink at her party!she gave him everything he wanted a car a house, and if it wasnt for her he would have never even gotten a record deal...and then she took everything away from him within minutes...it was great!! what a loser he is!

That is the best I've ever seen her looking, I'm not a fan at all, but I do have to say, man, what a turn around, have to hand it to her.

She looks gorgeous. X17 should really do a before and after pic from the beginning of this year to now. Not only does she look great but she even looks better than she did 5 or 6 years ago because she looks more mature.

Those poor kids. I know Kevin is trying to give Britney time with them but clearly, they just want to be at home. Let her go do her thing and let the kids stay home.

Losing ten pounds and getting a new wig does not equal a comeback. She needs to quit lip syncing everything and reveal herself for the fraud she is!
