gross

although the subliminal 'you should love her' message in the header is great comedy... I for one would never waste my limited TV time watching her lie about why she made a complete fool out of herself or mockery of motherhood.

UGH...

Ew. I am looking forward to hearing her B.S. justifications for her wacked-out years.

Its very early in the morning for all this hatefulness

I for one, saw the promo and it looks like it is going to be pretty heavy and not at all a "pretty montage of justifications and stories." I think its hilarious because most people want her to talk about it, so she does and people don't believe her. Interesting to me

count this one as a maybe.

won't this girl ever learn? she is opening her feelings and life in a reality show... AGAIN!!!
instead of making others talking about her professional life and only about her professional life ...

i really hate it when this site posts videos. They are always 'not accesible' or 'removed' or something.

the only thing I want to see Britney do is kick rocks with those ugly brown roach-stompers...

I'm just disheartened that people hope/want to see others fail and do badly. Pathetic much?

Everyone goes through hard times and sometimes it's really tough to try to get back on the horse. Can't we just agree it's a POSITIVE change that she is TRYING to right her life?

here, here Mesayme!!

Nope.
I'd rather root for my local crack addict who has no money to go with her lack of education and talent.

well this isn't the first time that brit brit's done a little documentary thing for MTV so i hope that this one goes over better than the previous version. i think that more people are interested in seeing what she's been doing lately and to get her perspective on things. i think that it's a good move for her actually.

I saw a clip and she felt as genuine and grounded as I've ever seen her. I'm looking forward to watching the whole thing.

yea she claims she is smart like how paris hilton claims she can sing and act!

i cant wait to see it. i feel bad for her, i'm rooting for her!

Man - I used to totally detest this girl. The videos always dressed in bras & panties, not at all about the music. But I am not a pop or R&B listener so I am a little biased when it comes to music. But since the moment she really broke down & lost it...I just wanted to hug the poor girl. I am a single mother & I was with a loser similar to KFed-an abuser, so I can relate to motherhood when you're not ready & a man that is basically worthless to you. I finally related to her & really wanted to help her out & get her away from Sam. I am proud to say I am a huge supporter of Britney Spears and I always will - I regret all the time I spent hating her now. So all you negative people who have nothing good to say about her - save your breath & energy - use it to focus on something positive and don't add to the Brit-Brit Haters Club.

"I wanted to make this film because I started to feel like I wasn't being seen in the light that I wanted to be seen in."

That's gonna take a lot of filters.

'Brit-Brit'...what is she, a toddler? who started that...Jeez.

Many women make it through a 'real' abusive husband breakup without neglecting their children or shaving my head bald in public or drug or alcohol or public flings... Char didn't lose it when KFed left her with children for Britney.
No sympathy...go home Britney and get it together without publicity and raise your children. It's all for Justin's eyes only anyway... he's moved on...to something?
If the judge and Britney thought Kevin was the better parent...who am I to disagree with that.
More importantly, what I've heard of this new CD...pointless. The studio crew deserves all the credit not 'Brit-Brit'...

Good for her - must be hard to admit that...

Hear hear navybean!

I too really didn't like her (hate is too strong a word) for a long time... But honestly, with her fall from grace it made her much more relate-able to me. I was my family's golden child, and in my early twenties I totally nose-dived and did some straight up retarded things. The only thing that got me back on track was my family. She has VERY different pressures than a homeless crack addict, I can see why she had a breakdown. People were pretty much rooting for it and when it happened they all said she essentially deserved it. No one deserves it, no matter how much money they do or don't make...

Not saying I'm converted to a fan, I still don't like her music, but she doesn't seem so much like an entitled brat to me now. If you don't like her, just stop reading about her! No need to bash people you don't know anonymously.

she sounds and looks normal, aware and thoughtful. I think it's great!!! Yay Britney!

I agree wopp, she is so innocent yet she had all the resources know to man to leave yet she had two kids went batsh*t crazy and that's kevins fault how she needs to learn to take responsibility for her own action instead of being pampered as always

I for one am very interested in this.

briandiesel We'll watch it together. This is what I've been saying all along. We shouldn't be speculating about what happened until we hear it from Britney herself. People agreed with me. Now SOME of the same people that agreed are saying she SHOULDN'T do this and blah blah blah.

Some individuals just want to be negative. I'm so GLAD that I don't live in the negative.

How do you guys know she's going to blame her problems on everyone else? She flat out says, "What the hell was I thinking?"

I'm interested to see this. I want to hear what she has to say.

She still doesnt look healthie to me.I believe she is in heavy medication and has alot of people around her controling her behaviour.I wish she would have stayed in peace and in private for some time.

If I happened to catch it then I will watch it. But, I wont go out of my way to watch it.

I think it's interesting how famous people get a pass when non-famous would be burned at the stake. It's abominable.

Personally, I only read it to study the psychobabble that stems from associating or disassociating with someone like or unlike yourself.
How could anyone know her? Her own kids barely know her? She's been so high for so long, she's getting reacquainted.
It is educational how some of the same people love her and hate Angelina. To hate one and love another for the exact same reasons and yet one does tremendous good for others and the other...only for herself. That's a personal mental struggle.

The only thing that's negative is her. She created it and it's her own karma surrounding her. Most people who appreciate good music and genuine talent are sick of people like her sucking up media space and money when it should go to others who are more talented and work harder to create positivity. It's by our own spirits,personal choices and intellect that we're horses and not sheep.

Not to mention: every time you respond to a 'negative' comment telling one to shut-it...aren't you saying we have less rights than you or Britney simply because we disagree?

Mesayme - you are hardcore judgmental. I feel for you that you aren't in a place in your life, and you may never be, where you realize that happiness does not come from judging others and placing yourself above them as a "better" human being. You need to check that real quick so that your mind and soul can be at peace. Your attitude towards others will get you no where.

You're so wrapped up in your own opinions & feelings that the nickname "Brit-Brit" pisses you off - that made me laugh, so thanks for that. I mean, really, you sounded so irritated by that. Wow.

Good luck to you!

omg omg soooooooo cant wait to see it.

navy, no she isn't. She's entitled to that opinion, and many have it.

I don't. I firmly believe that the things that have happened to Britney have been due to mental illness and not drug abuse, but I DO understand that some people disagree with that and that's fine. I'm hoping though that this documentary can help to put some of those thoughts to rest

And Mesay, that "Negative" comment wasn't aimed at you my friend.

And I gotta say, as a Britney fan I'm begging, PLEASE STOP USING THE TERM BRIT-BRIT. It's annoying and makes us sound 3 years old. LMAO

Wow Mesayme, I dont see why you feel the need to defend yourself? This is only a website, talking about a person none of us actually know. Dont let it bother you so much.

As for Britney, I am interested to watch this. I too went 'crazy' for a time and did things I look back on and cant believe I did, and I had a loving supportive family at the time but that didn't help me, I just ignored them and did what I wanted. Of course they help in the end (they really had no idea) and without them I wouldn't be who I am today.

Anyway, all I'm trying to say is that sometimes horrible things happen to people and they cant explain it. To outsiders it looks like it is 'their fault' and they cant understand how it happens, but it does. I personally think its about how you deal with it afterwards. I admire her for getting herself back on track. I know people will say 'she should look after her kids more, she should stay out of the spotlight' etc, but if she is happy and her kids are (which I am assuing they are) then that's all that really matters.

Dancing and singing is all this girl knows, and she loves it. I dont see why she should give it up. Yes people will say she's rubbish at it, haha, but I dont think there is any music artist / act out there who everyone loves.

I for one and just glad to see her happy, smiling and 'normal'. Whatever normal is.....!

I'm gonna see this documentary. I want her to get better, and this is a step in the right direction.

I'm rooting for you Britney!

Yes Deedlit! Seems to me a few people here are acting like they've never made mistakes (or they've just never owned up to them). When you have so many expectations from so many people placed squarely on your shoulders and you fantastically fail them, it's incredibly hard to own up and say, "Yeah, I messed up. It was MY fault."

If I had tv I may watch this, but I wouldn't go completely out of my way to. I'll probably just read the recaps on the net... Maybe try to watch a clip if I'm bored... The one thing I'd like to hear out of all this is that she does take responsibility for her part in her spiral, but also that she names the guilty parties that encouraged her to go further down. I don't know if it was drugs or mental illness or a combo, but hopefully with her family's help she'll get back to being the kind of person she really wants to be, in the spotlight and/or out.

I agree Deedlit90. I too went through a crazy period and I've done stuff I'm not proud of. And when I look back, I go... what was I thinking... and who was that person.

Stuff happens... I'm sorry not all of us is not as perfect as the rest of you.

...Based on your own testimony I see how you are so adamant to shield a similar person in a similar situation. And responding angrily to anyone you believe is attacking you personally although I have never met you.

Unfortunately, your own assumption about someone you don't know and pissed position with that of another's right to freedom of speech is entirely off and utterly incorrect. In God's eyes my soul's not better but my decisions have been.

Mykie... it's not a matter of agreeing or disagreeing. There are people who root for celebrities personal lives and those who want them to do their jobs and do them well. I'm the latter. There are those who go to therapist and those who go the Jerry Springer. Which do people who want real help do?
She's embarrassing her children and it's offensive to me, a mother.

I concur.

I'm not her therapist or psychiatrist, and don't presume to know what she has actually gone through (I love celeb websites and magazines, but they're pretty fluffy and inaccurate). It's sad to me when someone seems really self- destructive, and I hope they get better, spotlight or no. We really have no idea what her life is like, and we all have our demons.

Wow Mesayme, I dont see why you feel the need to defend yourself? This is only a website, talking about a person none of us actually know. Dont let it bother you so much.

hey, if you call my name and I hear it...I'm going to answer you especially if you're wrong. Otherwise I couldn't care less.

* I concur with the compassionate postings.

MYKIE7 - i never said anything about not being entitled to your own opinions. The judgements made are just harsh and ridiculous - everyone deals with life and what they go through differently, some better than others. But the bashing has got to go. It's not your place.

Doesn't the fact that she did all the carpolla she did in the last two years, and is now selling it all for the cameras, to air just before her next album releases, sort of negate the whole "I'm a smart person" and "I wish the media would leave me alone" claims?

Still the skanky media ho. Maybe she'll do another mascara-running interview ala Matt Lauer about how misunderstood she is. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if she found a new angle to cry about being misunderstood when her next album after this one needs publicity too. It's just part of what distinguishes her from the people with real talent whose records sell for the music.

That's one point of view Mesay, and I get what you mean.

However, my thought is that this is all she knows. From a young age she was forced into the spotlight, told what to do and how to do it, told who to date etc etc etc.

I don't think she had the social skills or wherewithal to know that what she was doing was harming her family. I truly believe that she had the boys and married K-fed to "fix" her life. I don't think she was a genuinely happy person during those days and I don't think that anyone was there to help direct her. She is now trying to clean up her life, and just as I would for a family member in her position, I am pulling for her. I think when the help was finally offered to her, the mental instability she was experiencing along with outsiders (Lutfi, galib, sims) convinced her that there was nothing wrong with her, that she was normal. Once she actually started getting help (Her Dad, the conservator) she pulled herself out of it. I also think that NOW she's a good Mom. She's spending more time with her kids (A lot of the visits aren't photographed, which is why it doesn't appear to be so, but documentation of court proceedings tell us how often she's with them.) I don't think that she's yet cured of all her issues and I DO believe that the "machine" is pushing her again, albeit not to the extent she was pushed before.

Again, I'm not trying to change your mind or anyone elses that doesn't like her. I'm just trying to give some insight as to why there are many of us that still support her. It's not because we "forgave and forgot" but because we see a bigger picture.

To bash is to slander. To slander is to speak an untruth...where is that untruth?
Opinions may or may not be true...what is false information here?
I'll correct mine if need be.
Judgments are made involuntary whether for or against. Each person has made one. So to take one's away is to actually judge that person due to theirs.
I just want you to see how you defend one person you don't know and lash out at another you know even less about.

I hear you Mykie... I just don't care about celebrities on a personal level unless I know them personally, and I have.
There are too many young girls who need me to be their cheerleader here in my own town to 'pull for' someone who could choose to and easily afford to go into a therapy program to neutralize damage done by a damaging childhood. She didn't go through a fragment of what I've seen. I hate cop outs if I hate anything about her at all. Like the hair shaving, why not do it at home? And admit that she did it because her hair was falling out from hair coloring.

The real problem here is a territorial problem. Britney, as world-changing as her life is,(as if there isn't an election and recession going on) has some supporters who try to bully people who don't like her or couldn't care less to stay away so that her posts are nothing but kudos...and that's not true and ain't gonna happen because it's open to all members.

I agree with Mesayme saying that same people that are commenting on people being so negative towards Britney Spears are the same people are the negative towards *fill in the blank* celebrity.

Stop telling me or any other person that they can't be negative towards Britney Spears. If you are an fan, express your fandom, if I'm a none fan, I am allowed to express my reasons. We can interact and give our different takes and then walk away!!!

oh, and seeing as how Britney Spears is still under the care of her father a la an adolescent, I don't see why the term Brit-Brit can't be stamped on her!!!

I'm OUT!!!

Mesayme, am i wrong or you said you know celebrities???? sorry, am i not english native speaker!

I find it trippy how people project what they want her to be, i.e. that vulnerable little girl who was pushed into the big dark world of pop music, rather than the manipulative skank who was lying to her fans about staying a virgin until she married, because it sold more records and concert tickets than the reality of a fame-hungry promiscuous teen doing drugs.

In this fragile victim archetype, Kevin becomes the bad guy, kind of that "either your with us or against us" mentality, when really, Britney blindsided him with filing for divorce and text messaging him to tell him. We've seen it all replayed with the "bad parents" and "bad friends" because of course this delicate little flower couldn't possibly be responsible for anything negative in her own life. Of course she MUST be a terrific mom, and the courts have it all wrong, so say her defenders.

Now she's going to sell the story of her downfall to sell more records. Nothing has changed. It's like a big long soap opera and she'll bring in some new villains this season.
