Comments of Famous toward Britney
BECK on rock music going downhill:
Beck slammed Britney in an interview at worldpop.com in the UK. In his interview, he said "I remember when Loser came out some people really hated that - that was the signal of music going down the drain, but now we're at a point where it's all 'N Sync and Britney Spears and obviously that's what's happening now and people are realising, 'Well, maybe that wasn't so bad".
Janet Jackson on having a good night out:
When interviewed on TRL, Janet revealed that she had attended a Britney concert in NY. Janet went to the concert because she knew that Britney could put on "a good show".
Ben Affleck on his supposed "relationship" with Britney:
when a radio presenter asked Ben about rumours of a Britney relationship, the one-time partner of Gwyneth Paltrow revealed "Actually I've only talked to Britney twice, she's a real sweetheart.. but no, none of the rumors are true!"
CHRISTINA AGUILERA on comparisons with Britney: Apparently Christina has had enough of comparisons of her with Britney. The star of the Moulin Rouge soundtrack said "A lot of people compare me to Britney, but I'd rather have a career like Madonna.". It may therefore have disappointed Aguilera when Madonna wore a Britney T-shirt for one of her 2001 live shows!!
COURTNEY LOVE on pop princesses:
Occasional rock star and actress Courtney Love got it all off her chest about Britney, describing our pop princess as "like a Barbie"!!
WILLIAM SHATNER on hotties:

Shatner said: "I immerse myself in the kids' culture. I'm struggling to stay current, but I keep going back to the lyrics and the hummable tune". When asked who he liked, Shatner replied "I saw a picture of Britney Spears this morning, and she's hot; a really great-looking young lady ...now Aguilera, another square away -- she's not as good-looking but sounds a little better".
JAY LENO on Britney's best known assets:
On his show, Jay added his weight to the debate about Britney's rumoured breast implants. He said "Britney Spears will be the surprise halftime entertainment at the Super Bowl. You know the guy that inflates the footballs? Well, he's been asked to do two more."
Boy Band A1 on serious musicians:
According to web site 101BritneySpears, when interviewed band member Paul was less than complimentary about our girl. He considered "Stronger" to be "sh*t", adding that "I think she'll be going down the fu**ing staircase. I think she's turning to sh*t.". Very polite!!
JENNIFER LOVE HEWITT on hardworking musicians:
"I listen to Britney Spears and the boy bands," she said. "I have incredible respect for them and how hard they work."
Madonna on how to bring yourself good luck: Interviewed for Elle magazine not long after her wedding to Guy Ritchie, Madonna showed how much she thinks of Britney: "I want to do nothing but support her and praise her". She also revealed how far her interest goes .. "I became obsessed with wearing Britney T-shirts. I slept in them, as well. It was like I felt it would bring me luck.".
Madonna on Britney again:
According to web site Ananova, Britney brings our the maternal instinct in Madonna. She said "I am amazed someone so young could be so sophisticated, yet she seems so naive," she told GQ magazine. "She has stated she wants to be just like me, so I suppose I feel a bit maternal towards her."
Dido on songwriting for Britney:
According to a BBC report, rising pop star and writer Dido - most famous for her collaboration with Eminem on Stan has been working on a sing for the princess of pop. Dido is quoted as saying "It was quite a challenge for me to write something that's definitely about pop".

ALICE COOPER:
During a Swedish tour, Alice Cooper wore a TeeShirt that said "Britney Wants Me .. " and "DEAD". During his show a Britney lookalike is chased from the stage by Alice. Sounds to us as though Alice is trying to get a little publicity!!
Wyclef Jean on songwriting:

Michael Jackson on "uninvited" guests:
According to PeopleNews, MJ snubbed Britney when she turned up for a party at his Californian ranch with Justin. Apparently he is reproted to have said "Why'd he have to bring her?". Surely not!
Carson Daly on the evolution of Britney:
Interviewed in YM Magazine, Carson Daly revealed his feelings for the singing star. The MTV VeeJay said "I'm most impressed with Britney's evolution over anyone else on 'TRL. ..When I met her, she was just this teenager with an accent from Louisiana. There wasn't a mean bone in her body — no Hollywood, no L.A. Now she's become a legitimate sex symbol ... She hasn't been afraid to change her videos. To break from a template of what works as the No. 1 video [star] takes a lot of courage," he says. "And to break from it successfully is remarkable."
Shaq O'Neill on the importance of size:
On e-online, Shaq revealed that despite the fact she's a friend, he had no desire for a deeper relationship with Britney. He said "It's not like that with her. She's just too darn little for me.".
Posh Spice on the battle of the pop princesses:
In an interview with British Magazine Smash Hits, Posh revealed "I love Britney! She's my fave! I think Christina has a much better voice, but she looks like she's a bit of a diva and I think she's losing the plot. Britney is definitely the queen of pop, we (The Spice Girls) would want to make a record with her."
Blink 182 Mark Hoppus:
It's reported on site 101BritneySpears that Mark Hoppus prefers Britney to Christina because the "Baby One More Time" star was nice to him when they met - unlike the "Moulin Rouge" singer.
Aaron Carter on Christina:
Despite supporting Britney on tour, Aaron is quoted as preferring her arch rival. Apparently he said "I'm not into Britney's music, but I think she's a really nice person. "Christina on the other hand is amazing. She makes herself look really good on stage.".
Moby on "trite" Britney:
In an Observer interview, Moby apparently was quoted as follows:
"Why can't radio stations play more Bob Dylan and less of that trite, vacuous Britney Spears? The answer is because the majority of the people listening to radio want to here Britney right now and they don't want to hear Bob Dylan."
WESTLIFE on Britney's Live Show:
When Britney's tour arrived at London's Wembley Stadium, the Westlife singers Shane and Kian Egan were in the audience. They said: "It was kinda pantomime. She gets people up on stage and they do little things like run around like a chicken. It's not my cup of tea, to be honest. It's not for an older audience. It's not about coolness, it's not about what we would want our show to look like. It's like a Steps show.".
