Rescuing Britney
Clearly, I do not have enough to do today!
Anyway, there was a discussion about Britney Spears in the office this morning. What went wrong at the VMAs? What went right? Is her career over?
I'm going to expand on an idea that I read on some LiveJournal entry earlier in the week.
Someone had posted a story saying that Simon Cowell and the other judges from American Idol would gladly help make her a superstar again.
As much as I despise "reality" television, I think they may have something there. The climate is certainly right, and if she could learn to laugh at herself once in a while this could be the big promotion she needs! After all, look at what The Simple Life did for Paris and Nicole!
They could start off with putting her on some diet, with her sneaking out to get burgers and fries, have her hit the gym, dance lessons, time management seminars, blah, blah, blah.
The possibilities are endless. Hell, they could probably make a show featuring Lindsay in rehab and it would be huge.
It's amazing what people would watch, but I might actually watch a show dedicated to the rebuilding of a superstar. A big part of that is because that lifestyle currently fascinates me.
I think a big step, which I've already mentioned, is that Britney needs to have a laugh and quit taking herself quite so seriously.
While I like a couple of her songs, I have to say I'm not a huge fan. From what I've seen in interviews, etc., I don't think she's the kind of person I'd like.
Perhaps that is part of Paris's draw on me. She gets the "joke" of being in the constant spotlight, and most of the time she just has a laugh and doesn't let it get to her. That's very big... we can all use a little of that!
Anyway, babe... have your people give my people a call! =^)
