Britney Spears let cameras follow her all over the world for sixty days, and the best moment was when she donned a chic suit, looked in the mirror, and said "Hello, I'm Matilda."What we always love (and sometimes miss) about Britney is her fun spirit. She's a cut up, that's why she always kills on Saturday night live. Perhaps it's that training from The Mickey Mouse Club, but we think it's just who she is. We bet if you knew Brit Brit, you'd like her. And you'd give her some of your prescription drugs. Oops.
The big "expose" on MTV was not so much exciting as it was a very long reiteration of "I don't wanna be famous, I don't wanna be a victim, I'm just tryin' to live my life." We'd love to say an astonishing new perspective was offered, and we're sure the other blogs will find a line to two to harp on, but really? We thought it was all pretty same ol' same ol'.
We loved everything Madonna said though, and the way they contextualized the "Human Nature" Britney appearance in Madonna's latest tour. Britney sounds a bit like Madonna on her new album.
Which we totally pre-ordered (it's due out tomorrow, December 2, 2008). A cynic might say that was the point of this "film," but we don't think so. Whatever the point was, rockin' to the new album is probably gonna be better. As it should be. More power to ya, Britney. We wish you all the best!
