The Britney Madness Just Keeps Going and Going

Man, you so have to love Britney Spears. Even when she sucks, millions of people tune in to see her. I mean, I don't want to start any conspiracy theory rumor here or anything, and I definitely don't want to sound like good ol' Kanye West, but the thing is - whatever Britney touches, it turns to...well...not gold, but certainly a valuable piece of something. Because no matter how badly she lip-synchs, no matter how fat she is and how she wobbles around on stage looking hal-asleep or (more likely) drunk, there will always be loads of people willing to pay just ridiculous amounts of attention to the trainwreck that she is.

Remember that absurd clip we posted yesterday featuring some guy crying his eyes out over just how badly Britney was treated by the bad, bad world out there? Well, as stupid and silly as that was, I'm afraid that was pretty much a slightly exaggerated caricature of all the Britney madness that's been intoxicating the entertainment media for a while now.

Britney is the sell-all franchise. You want the VMA's to top the rating charts? Get Britney to make a fool of herself opening the show (wait - that did sound like Kanye - I guess I'm going to have to spend the rest of the day wondering if I meant it). And now, the latest fashion is to try to explain (I mean, really explain, with video essays and all that) how come Britney's performance sucked so badly. And of course, the Britney haters out there decided it was time for some serious trolling - and started to post counter-arguments that prove (again - if necessary) that Britney is already old news and that her career is screwed.

So, in case you didn't know, we're at war. The "Britaloony" war, just to give it a name if it ever has to go down in the history books of the next generation of MTV stars. It's a true jungle out there, with comments and posts and replies and videos that will do everything except whack you over your head. And it's catchy - the Brit fever will get a hold of you and drive you mad to the point where you'll just sit up after watching that video which allegedly proves her stiletto heel was broken for an hour and go "what the hell...". And then you'll go out and have a drink and just chill - because the alternative is...you guessed it...more Britney rumors. Better say stop before you find yourself addicted to the madness. Don't laugh - it is addictive. Did I just write yet ANOTHER Britney piece? What was I saying? Point proven.
