It feels weird for Britney to be a flop, like the end of an era or like something is inherently wrong with the world. She's always been successful before now, even if she was floundering in one department she was strong in the other. But now everything is a flop: media coverage, singles, album sales, touring.
Because people grew up and now understand how wack Britney is. She can't sing (well could never did that in the first place), she can't dance no more, her music suck and she ugly now. No one care about Britney no more.
Just because Katy is useless for everything apart for being beautiful & having the best pair of **** doesn't mean that everybody else is hopeless like her. Like, don't expose yourself (and your fave) like that.
You're the one who just thought Gaga popularized the word 'flop'. You've already exposed yourself.
