Britney Spears has been ridiculed for everything from her 55-hour first marriage to backup-dancer second husband and her recent pantyless partying escapades. Now that she's entered rehab, though, the joke is over.
I agree. This girl is in trouble and on a downward spiral. It's easy to make Britney jokes but since the weekend all I feel is sorry for this kid.
That's what she is. A 25 year-old spoiled child who's got some major problems and is in need of some major help.
Hopefully this will be it.
Maybe I feel this way because of having daughters. Maybe not being on the air gives you a bit of perspective about what is Celebrity Jokey Joke material and what is just pathetic.
I know if I was on the air I'd probably be doing all sorts of "Britney Bits," but as a guy with a couple of girl children, I just feel bad for her.
A guy I really admire Craig Ferguson of the Late Late show said it best.
"For me, comedy should have a certain amount of joy in it," he told viewers Monday. "It should be about attacking the powerful _ the politicians, the Trumps, the blowhards _ going after them. We shouldn't be attacking the vulnerable."
