Avril Lavigne Hates Britney Spears

Avril Lavigne has lashed out at Britney Spears, saying that the reason Britney has broken down is because she is too weak for fame. She tells The Sun:

What's happened to Britney is all down to who she is as a person. If you want a piece of this business you have to be able to deal with it. You can't complain about the pressures, the paparazzi, the madness because that's the job."

Britney could learn a lot from Avril about handling the pressures of fame. Like here when she spit on a paparazzi and her fans while leaving the L.A. club, Hyde. Yeah, whatever. Britney's debut album has outsold every Avril album combined. The only reason this little poseur even said anything is because people (other than Canadians) barely know who she is. Her music sucks and her husband looks like a caveman. At least in five years Britney will still be a millionaire. Avril will be trying to get people to sing along to "Sk8er Boi" at the grand opening of a Wal-Mart.

Bitching in The Sun about Britney Spears ain't exactly my idea of tough either sister.

In fact it sounds pretty wussy to me.

Although I don't disagree with what she says, she really can't compare her fame to that Spears experienced.

Still don't live in Hollywood and go to the coolest clubs and then complain about papparazzi. You know they will be there, if you want to avoid them then move out of Hollywood.

I think it’s long overdue for FOX to bring back “Celebrity Boxing”

This is an example of what Freud called the “narcissism of small differences.” Avril is three steps away from Britney — a bit upmarket, a little more bohemian, but still the same manufactured product — so she fights with her very life to keep three steps away from the crazy, drunken, bald chick.

Sounds more like, “I need to generate publicity for me sucky new album.”

Spin the wheel to choose the medium?

The first time I ever saw Avril, she was being interviewed on some low-rent TV show. She was going on and on and on about being an “artist” and how she was “born to be a poet” and I was thinking, “You sound totally illiterate. You’re 17. You’re a manufactured, flavor-of-the-month pop star, and you’re too dumb to realize it. Poet my a**!”

Avril is one hurtin’ unit. She’s got deep issues that nobody in her inner sanctum of friends and hangers-on have the tools to help her with. I saw her in her interview with Oprah some time back, and her body language was absolutely tortured. Sitting cross-legged in a chair, dodging eye contact with the cameras...it was hard to watch. Every move she made just practically screamed, “I’m not comfortable in my own skin!” What popularity she has is testament to how many others out there can personally identify with her. She’s talking to people with inner pain and they hear someone who’s coming from a place of firsthand experience.

Just lotsa achin’ hearts out there with no view to a cure.

Avril Lavigne, fearing her 15 minutes of fame had ended, has lashed out at Britney Spears, whose 15 minutes of fame ended 20 minutes ago, in hopes of winning 5 more minutes of fame. We’re not even sure if “Avril” isn’t just a typo.

Given the choice, I’d rather hit Avril. Of course, I’d take Gwen Stafani over either one of them.

I thought some dude wrote her songs (or at least the hit). Some “artist”.
