I don't think anyone is saying that Britney is extremely deep. But to say she has no involvement what so ever and that she never contributed at all to her career is ridiculous. Most of Britney's images, music videos, song choices, tour concepts, etc. all came from her. She has definitely given artistic merit to her career and she definitely has been involved. Song-writing seems to come up a lot and well she co-wrote on all of her albums except two of them...

Why do you keep quoting small pieces of my post that don't even really sum up what I was saying?

I don't think she has no involvement in her career, honey. I never even implied it. But at the moment, she embodies what the article was saying. Even if it's just on the surface. From what we can see and cite, she is the least "involved" of her peers. I'll admit that there is a fair amount that we don't know and can't make assumptions about, so that's why I never explicitly said that she has no say in her career.

Bolded: how could anybody prove or disprove this without being an insider in the world of Britney Spears? And what are you trying to tell me that I haven't heard so many times before?

I somewhat agree. It's just as stans we defend her because it hasn't always been this way with her. Something has changed and its hard to grasp. We only try to remind others of the involvement Brit has had over the years because as stans we're not even completely sure. All I know is that Brit hasn't came across as a blank canvas until very recently, and while we can't explain why all we can do is remind people why and how she is the pop icon she is today.

So lucid and honest!

I dont agree with the article at all

I think stans and haters should all a agree on one thing, Britney is not the same and something seems "off" about her these days.

awwww i like this article. A very interesting point of view. I dont think its being shady towards her, you girls are taking it to serious. Its praising her for all thats she's done, and her impact on culture. It really makes sense what the writer is trying to say. I mean she is compared to the cultural impact of star wars. Britney Spears is definitely in the big leagues.

Britney might not be a "deep artist" or like picaso. But she is defiantly an artist and a piece of art in her way!
Plus art, can never be defined as one thing. Art is on the perception of the person.

You misunderstand. I didn't say that you specifically think that, but many outsiders do feel this way and it's grossly inaccurate. That's why people "defend" Britney even though "she isn't Joni Mitchell."

Well you, just admitted that you are only looking at a portion or the surface of things. That's why Britney's fans bring up all the ways she is involved because people think Britney isn't involved at all. Even when she is.

Basically you have already admitted that she is involved. I don't even understand what we are arguing about. You have answered your own question, Britney fans bring up all the ways she is involved because of all the detractors who say she hasn't done **** in her 13+ year career.
