How did you discover your fave? and why is she so important for you?
Me:
I discovered Britney in 1998 when I was 9. I remember watching music channels the whole day with my 5 year old cousin waiting to see the Baby one more time video. I guess I was too young
to be taken seriously so my parents never bought me Baby One more time.
By the time Oops I did it again was released I was a Christina Aguilera fan too and my parents bought me "Mi reflejo" instead of Oops I did it again. But one of my friends had OIDIA and
I recorded the album on a cassette so I would play it every day at every hour and I would also tape her videos on VHS.
Britney was the first album I got, my dad was actually unemployed and I was sad because I knew he couldn't afford gifts for that christmas, so I was very surprised he got me the album. Not a girl, not yet a woman was the first song I translated into spanish. My
goal was to learn english because I was sure I would talk to Britney one day
During the ITZ era I started losing interest in Britney. I bought the album, but I was starting high school and I was ready to discover other things. I was still there for her, but I wasn't as big of a fan as I used to be.
When I was around 14 Britney took a break to get married and have kids so I lost all interest in her. Music wasn't that important for me anymore and I turned my attention to other things like alcohol and drugs.
One day I went to a market and they were selling GH:MP and I bought it and I stopped doing all that stupid **** and I became addicted to her again. Later, I joined the official Britney Spears fans club in my country and I made very good friends there. This happened like 2 weeks before she shaved her head, but I didn't care, she was my idol and I was going to support her because I was just getting out of a dark place like her.
I love Britney because she's basically like me. As her music evolved, I was growing up and I felt like she knew what I wanted from her. Everytime I've been sad and I've needed someone she's been there for me.
