I just read this week's People mag. with Miss Britney as cover girl. It is an interesting article that basically focuses on her hiatus and other events of importance: break-up with Justin T., parent's divorce, sick aunt, record sales, etc... The one thing that struck me is that Britney is now saying that she is growing up and so she partakes in activities that people her age are interested in. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the drinking age 21? Actually this isn't what irritates me the most. What really gets on my nerves is the following quote in regards to sex:
"Who really cares if I've had sex? It's nobody's business. Trust me, I'm not going to have a press conference to announce it. If I mess up, I'm human. If I have a drink or I'm with someone, I'm human. I'm no different than anyone else my age."
It's funny to me that she seems irritated by the sex thing, when she in fact was the one to make a pledge that she would remain a virgin until she married. Her publicist should have told her to keep quiet back then, because she in fact made it everyone's business since she used to talk about it quite often. It's funny because her mother says how mature Britney is, but when you read comments like this, as well as most everything else that comes out of her mouth, she really is far from mature. Here's a thought - how about not putting yourself in a position to... "mess up" in the first place? The true sign of maturity and self responsibility is making positive choices as well as surrounding one's self with positive influences.
Just wondering what everyone else thought? I definitely have my opinions about Britney and how she carries herself in regards to how it affects young people, especially young girls. Her "I'm a virgin, but I'm also a slave for you" dichotomy has gotten old and tired. I know that this is ridiculous in the entertainment world, as there are very few artists who take their responsibility as role models seriously because it all comes down to money. I guess it brings forth the old saying, "Why bite the hand that feeds you?"
Any opinions?
