This CAN'T be what Britney wanted |

Damn! If Britney was hoping her shocking and traumatic public head-shaving would make the world's media sit up and take notice of one little girl's feelings about the constant media attention, it plainly didn't work. It actually seems that she's become even more of a media magnet than before (hard though that is to believe) because the media now expect her to do crazy things and nobody wants to miss them.
But recent pictures of her doing the most mundane things - like going for a meal, going to the dance studio etc. - have shown her totally engulfed by what seems like dozens of paparazzi. I've never seen anything like it. It's actually getting scary now and I just wonder how long it will be before there's some kind of incident and somebody gets hurt. Her bodyguards ARE there to protect her and some day soon they're gonna have to do that.
And if it happens, you know who will get the blame. Last Sunday, a security guard belonging to a church Britney was attending pulled a gun on a driver who tried to run someone down outside the church. But the incident was reported as "Britney's Security Guard Pulls A Gun On Paparazzi!!!"
Tonight I'm reading that X17 has organised a live feed from outside Britney's house. This is the kind of thing that usually only happens if there's some major political or legal bombshell in the offing. But a tiny little singer from smalltown Louisiana who only wants to be allowed to live a (relatively) normal life? It's just disproportionate and sickening.
I honestly think this level of media scrutiny would make ANYONE paranoid. But a weird and mentally unbalanced Britney is exactly the kind of cartoon character the media want.
