You make it sound like he was talking about her as if he was in SYG

But he didn't do that interview in 2005/2006 when she wasn't really relevant in music.
He did it during her game changing Blackout era.
People still saying it's britney, bitch. The album sold 800k in its first run and sold 200k off of word of mouth and its significance to dance/pop in the later 00s.
That is the point I am making. As lady gaga said, the music industry wouldn't be the same without her...there is no logic to call her irrelevant to music. That's like saying because Mariah and Madonna can barely sell gold NOW that they are not relevant and their impact meant nothing.
Nice try, ya'll. He's praised her yet dissed her before. Just like Simon yet people seem to forget.
