It was like a news flash that bounced off every wall of the Channel 6 News newsroom today. "Brittany Spears is losing her kids!!!!" What a shock! Call me old fashion or just old but I have no sympathy for her at this time. I don't know her personally but have seen the reports and read the articles. I recently heard of an article in a national magazine that was all about a reporter who was suppose to do an interview with her and waited for two days. Never got what was set up, but wrote the article about having to wait on Brittany. So the Judge and I agree that maybe, just maybe her life is not quite together.
Sudden fame is an amazing thing. Despite the fact that Brittany has basically been in the spotlight her entire life she seems to really be struggling with it. Spears married young and quickly. Then made the decision she wanted some children. Now she has nothing. Her recent apperance on the MTV Video Music Awards was anything but stellar and she seemed to be ill-prepared. The rumor was that she was three-hours late for rehearsal the day before the show. How in the world is someone who seems so irresponsible with her career going to be responsible with her children? The reason she has the wealth and fame that she has now is because she was committed to being good at what she did. She was a good entertainer when it seemed that she cared about it.
Maybe she fell into that Hollywood life style that seems to eat up and spit out so many people. Look at the travesty that is the lives of so many of the young men and women that are or were stars. How often do we hear of an attempted suicide or another re-hab stint for another one of our brightest up and coming stars? It's more the rule than the exception now days. Blame the Paparizzi or whoever you want, but some day movie stars might just realize that they are indeed under a microscope and acting properly in public just might benefit them. Maybe their agents are not making them understand that the multi-million dollar movie deals will not last forever and can go away as quickly as they are signed.
There is an old saying; "Bad publicity is better than no publicity". But what about this, "Bad publicity, over and over, is just plain BAD!"
Good luck Kevin!
