Everyone was wondering if it would every happen. By some freak chance it did. Britney Spears made her comeback. How . . . I have no idea.I can’t say that I have ever been a huge Britney fan. I do remember jamming out to hit me baby one more time when I was listening to the radio waiting for my favorite Backstreet Boys song to play on Y94. However, I did enjoy the train wreck that was her life for the past few years. If that makes me a terrible person, so be it.
I continued to shake my head in disbelief and disgust week after week while I read about her walking barefoot into public restrooms, driving her vehicle with her children on her lap, AND my personal favorite shaving her head completely bald. I honestly thought that she would either end up tragically dead from some drug overdose or locked up in some loony bin. I guess I was wrong.
I about died when Britney’s Womanizer video debuted on primetime television. I remember walking into the living room and thinking “My God, she is back.” Immediately after that thought came “Good for her.” The song was great, the video was fun, and she looked amazing. Britney finally got her act together.
Last week it was announced that her Circus tour would begin in March and she has started rehearsing. She announced on her blog how excited she was for her fans to see her latest tour that will kick off in New Orleans. The Pussycat Dolls are said to be opening for Britney on this tour. No comment…
I guess there is just no getting rid of Britney. This is thanks to her fans. To them, nothing has changed. There were no up-skirt shots or messy divorces, no shaved heads or stints in rehabilitation facilities. She has always been the perfect, pig-tailed American Idol and she always will be. Somehow, she has become vital, she has become iconic, and — most of all — she has become infallible. I am not sure why… but to her fans, Britney can do no wrong.
Thanks for all the “crazy” years Brit. You entertained me for quite a while. I hope she enjoys her “comeback” and I hope you guys won’t hold it against me that I own her Circus CD.

This blog just summarizes the true definition of a comeback queen. If you can recall about a year ago Britney Spears horrible opening performance at the MTV video music awards, after putting up such a horrible performance she was trashed and made fun of by every media medium such as radio talk shows, late night shows and television shows.
ReplyDeleteWhat I was really amazed at was the fact that even as all this trash talking about Britney was going on her first single “Gimme more” was still the number one single in the country and her album was still selling. Her fans are so loyal to her and have been by her even at her most trying periods. Britney experience is a true example of a comeback queen. It just goes to show that indeed when one is down don’t beat yourself up too much, instead pick yourself up and keep striving to move forward.
