I don’t even know why I’m writing this article, or why I’m still planning to write more. When I became fascinated by Britney Spears and began to write about her, most of the fans I encountered received the resulting articles with interest and gratitude. This is no longer the case, and the reason is both simple and sad. It appears that the fashionable response now to an article that tries to deal with the subject of Britney in a reasonably sympathetic (or even-handed) way is to laugh at it and sneer at the author.

(This is an updated version of a short article I wrote a couple of years ago)
Leann Rimes once stated that she worked very hard to have the body she had, and she intended to show more of it in the future. If she had followed that proposal through to the policy stage, she’d have joined a select group of female singing stars who have made it their business to flash some flesh - a group that includes such colourful individuals as Cher, Kylie and Dannii Minogue, Mariah Carey, Madonna and Christina Aguilera.

This is going to be a very unusual review of “Blackout”. I’m not going to feign surprise that someone with Britney’s reported problems could deliver a great album. Many great names in classical music and jazz over the past 50 or more years had entropic personal lives or addictions of one sort or another.

I always knew being a Britney supporter would be tough. But when I became a fan back in 2003 nobody could have predicted just HOW tough it would be. The amazing thing is that there’s absolutely nothing wrong with her music, and, since her raison d’etre is to be a pop singer, that should be all that matters. Her last album went straight to No.1 in the US and went on to sell millions worldwide. Her current single, “Gimme More” is one of her most successful ever. Her forthcoming album is reckoned to be the most anticipated of 2007 and will once more sell in millions. Her fans are as devoted to the sound of her music as they ever were. She even seems to be singing better than she has for years - or possibly ever. No, there’s nothing wrong with THAT aspect of Britney Spears.
