Britney Spears has handwritten a note to her fans. This is because she’s about to release a new album called “Britney Jean” and has no idea if anyone cares. I’m not sure anyone does. Britney writes to the fans: “I am funny! I am your friend!”
I do feel kind of bad for her at this point. Britney is lost in the music business. She’s already headed for Vegas before the age of 30. She has a limited catalog. You just feel like she’s going to be a windup doll until she can’t be anymore. She’s like the main character in a Jacqueline Susann novel.
The big news is that B.J. has inherited William Orbit from Madonna. That means a lot of droning electronics and few hooks. Both Britney and Justin Bieber have the worst songwriters and producers in pop. Why can’t they do anything approaching Pink or Timberlake? Even some of Miley Cyrus’s stuff is pretty well done.
