I doubt many people reading this ever considered buying Britney's album, but hey.

[dennis1x]

mmmmmmm britney

[Freemyland]

Yeah. I guess I have been boycotting Britney all along, and didn't even realize it.

[Big Dan]

"Family-friendly" Rosie O'Donnell show?

[Psalm 73]

Oh, OK. I promise I won't buy any of her albums.

[Happygal]

``Spears has found success by simultaneously playing 'good girl' and 'sexy vixen.' ''

Hey, don't all women do this? *LOL* I mean, depends on whether you are looking for a fella in a club or Sunday school! *L* Hell, I know I've done both! *LOL*

Can't say I've had the same success as Britney mind you! *ROFL*

My kids (12 and 10) consider Britney Spears "uncool" and apparently so do their peers. But we used to say that about Barry Manilow and Neil Diamond when I was a kid and while those artists would sell tens of millions of records, not a single person would admit to owning one.

Though if my kids did like Britney Spears, I couldn't complain that much. When I was their age, I was listening to Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. Now THOSE were the days...

[GeekDejure]

Geez . . . what's with all this "boycot" crap . . . doesn't anybody ever "GIRLCOT" ???

[Don Myers]

"unless you live next to a whorehouse. Yet though her actions make her look like a slut, at times she still behaves like a role model (part-time) to hang on to her young girl fan base."

I agree completely. And I don't buy her music anyway.

[ZULU]

I like to watch her music.

[kcpopps]

Yet though her actions make her look like a slut, at times she still behaves like a role model (part-time) to hang on to her young girl fan base.

My 15 year old daughter was a fan early on, but now uses the term "skank" when describing Spears. And I didn't have any input in that (at least not directly).

[parting shot]

Get a Grip!

We place to much emphasis on these people. We make them "Role Models" by giving them this type of consideration.

If you don't want your kids to see her as a role model, make sure your kids "values" are correct and they will see here for what she is. an opportunist!

[daviddennis]

I have boycotted her from the second I first heard her voice.

How the heck can people stand her music? She can't sing.

I wouldn't boycott her for the reason stated above, though. I suspect most girls want to be wholesome sex kittens. Heck, would you rather have a wholesome girl as a lover or a sex kitten? Best to have someone with a mix of both, no?

[boycott]

Cornell giving us lessons on morality?

Please!!! I guess they're upset with Britney because she's not a bull like so many of them at Cornell.

[Rebelbase]

Its time for the picture again.

[Always Right]

Britney, either return to the wholesome days of "Sometimes" or stick with "I'm a Slave 4 U" and stop catering to your younger fans.

Actually, if "I'm a Slave 4 U" is any indication of the entire album, it will tank.

[Dog Gone]

Regardless of what you think about Britney, this is about the most confounded piece of logic I have seen. She is under no obligation to conform herself to anyone's stereotype of how she must behave.

Having said that, will somebody please post a picture of her marketing her navel to America? Thanks.

[thefactor]

Thanks, Matty, for telling me about Britney. I need smart folks like you to tell me how to live. I'm sure Britney needs you to tell her how to make a living. Did you ever hear of Madonna? She is celebrated for making S&M videos, books, movies after she initially came on to the scene "Like A Virgin". Bet you didn't mind it then, huh? Get a life. How about this: you don't buy her album and the rest of us will decide for ourselves. Our daughters/sisters will be taught that Hollywood is not real. Our daughters/sisters will look up to their parents and not to some thong-laden singer.

BUT, Britney is very hot. Her new video rocks. Good for her and her multitude of handlers. NUTS to Rosie.

[Dan from Michigan]

No problem here. Forgot the most important reason though...the music sucks.

[Hank Hill]

I think Britney is a fine young lady. My wife Peggy thinks she dresses kinda funny, but that's what them rock stars do. I hope she does real good.
