> You seem to have missed my point. My post was not so much about Britney Spears in particular but about celebrity fascination in general. This has now got to the point that we have people famous for being famous.

I would observe that while the current crop does seem to be overflowing, such celebrities have been with us for a century at least. They just didn't get quite the daily airplay -- instead, you had to read about them in papers or cinema newsreels. But I grant you the point that we're experiencing a glut.

> I found a box of albums I had when I was 12 or 13... Beatles, Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, the Yardbirds...

Yep I got a collection like that (I turn 56 in two weeks).

> Jeff Beck to Britney in 30 years. That’s regression!

Aaarrrgggh-h-h. Yes, I agree completely!

And [oh dear], it's like 40 years...

In truth, it was a very good hospital. Not as good as NYC hospitals, but still good.

Any news on the kid? It is odd as it seemed only one ambulance had lights going. I would think if a child was in one, it too would have lights on to the hospital. The hospital is going to be massively swarmed and not just with the paps. You called it—the line outside and the slamming against the ambulance was maddening.

Are they all milling around in the street to slow the vehicles down (to get pix) or are they already at the hospital?

Ewww, cooties! The first time I heard of the hospital’s name was when I was a little kid and Elizabeth Taylor was always in and out of it - and I thought they were flying her to Lebanon all the time for “treatments.” LOL

Can’t blame them. The photog who gets the shot gets a six figure pay day.

Think that if I tried, really hard, I just might be able to care less about Britney Spears.

I am sorry for the poor innocent kids that need to be taken far away from both those loser parents and given a fair chance at a healthy life.

But besides that... Britney is a grown woman. She has more than enough money and people around her who want to help her. If she chooses NOT to accept that help, then I certainly will not lose any sleep over anything that happens to her.

Yeah, I may have it wrong - I’m not a “Britney expert,” but I’ve had a number of “sponsees” in AA who were addicts. She’s certainly an alcoholic, but not full-blown yet.

Those paps need to be arrested on the
spot, if not just for their dangerous vulture
mobbing tactics on the celebs, but especially
when they endanger emergency transport.

It’ll be a battle for the am airwaves fersure:
Huckabama .. FederSpears
