True, but I'm tired of Britney and her fans acting like Britney's too good to be -desperate- for success. Unlike some artists that need radio deals to premiere their singles, I admire Britney for breaking spin records on her own. However, it's time for Britney to get down and dirty and use these tactics to advance her career.

I don't think anyone truly believes she is too good for success, but it's such a pointless merry go round of a discussion. If Ryan was here, he would lay down the law as he usually does, at the end of the day her success, as does everyone's, lies on what you put out there to make it visible to the public.

It would be one thing if she possessed every every major tv program within a span of 2 weeks (like two certain girls did) and delivered moderate #'s. But it's a whole different ballgame when it's the total opposite. It's all about perspective, HIAM had absolutely nothing keeping it afloat...no interviews, no video, it wasn't even attached to an album name . All it had was hype. It's #'s are a result of what it was given. Radio built the song up so fast, just like they did with Born This Way, and it crashed and burned because of it.

I think BTW kind of killed HIAM to be honest. The song was gaining and in position to go #1 prior to the stations stopping everything to play BTW. I think if Jive had been a bit more patient we could have seen the song rebound and have a bit of longevity but they pushed out TTWE too quickly and that hurt it's sales.

Hey bitches! I'm new here!

I am a huuuuuuge Brit fan! She's definitely my number one artist. Baby One More Time was my first album I ever bought, even though I was only 6! Circus is the era when I really became a stan though. I'm not really sure why. It may not be her best album, but it's got to be near my favorites just because it really made me love her!

Aye.

BTW did great too, but it died a quick death on Radio as well, all her singles after that have had more longevity despite not selling as much. I never want a Britney single to ever blow up as fast as HIAM did on radio, it's a death sentence.

So what's going on over at breatheheavy. Jordan posted a very interesting message. Some fans are saying that's it's a message directly from Britney herself. Either he know something we don't or It's just nothing. But it's interesting.

My first thought was that it was about the conservatorship. But I don't think that's ending anytime soon.

Beautiful...

I find it ridiculous that they felt they had to "punish her." I don't care what anyone says, that conservatorship is shady as hell.

Btw was a big factor in HIAM slowing down! But it's whatever gaga hyped that thing up so much! The song was no good.
But gaga peformed and promoted her song to make it succeed even more. Something that Britney does for non of her song!

That what gets me, that Brit doesn't give a crap about her music. She just like there listen and by. I wish he actualy felt it and performed it for the world to hear. Just like the eras before circus!

I'm sick of her team acting like she's to much of a legend to appear anywhere. Shes sill very contemporary!! All she is doing is making the public forget about her.

Welcome!

I'm starting to panic because I have a feeling we won't get a new Britney album next year, and 2012 would be the perfect time for her to release new music. I'd like to see her in movies too, but I care for Britney music more than I care for Britney movies.

It's not dude! It's honestly what saved Britneys life.

Sometimes you need to punish someone to get them on the right track. Britney has good people around her.

I mean just look at Linsey Lohan! It's had that she's still a mess.

[Monroe]

I kind of want Britney to take a short break. Just so she can realize there are other things out there then music. I want her to be involved the next time she releases something and I feel right now that she is so limited as a person. I want her to experience things and become an actual person again. Not be this scared entity that has to read from cue cards, practice answers and be this hermit that doesn't want to interact with people. That's why I want her to persue other projects like acting because to be honest I can't go threw this again. Britney needs to get her life back and what she has put forth this era just isn't cutting it.

Yeah we had a discussion about that many pages back last month sometime and we went into detail about it, I think it's shady as well. Her father seems shady to me also but at the the time I feel like if it wasn't for him then Britney wouldn't be here but I feel like he wants the conservatorship to stay in place because he makes MILLIONS from it, plus he's going to make millions from the F.F. tour.

now hold up. You know Brit cares about her music! Her producers have even said how she wants her sound to be, what she likes, she's even changed some lyrics, and structure around on several of the songs. Including Femme Fatale. She comes up with her Video concepts (which are amazing) so to say she doesn't care about her music is

And let's not on the appearances thing. Sure her promo may not be like on Gagas level, Katy perrys but we have gotten some some apperances. Like The Billboard Awards, and the VMAS.

I don't think it's all about the money. It really saved her life. I mean Jaimie is making millions from working with Britney.
But he's her dad. She's not going to Kick him to the curve and leave him on the streets.
If I was super rich I'd def help my dad out anyway I could. I mean he old y gets a small portion.
Britney is very rich and I'm sure what he makes is a penny to her. Plus brit doesn't care about the money. You can tell he's till a simpy country girl form Louisianna.

Well of course Britney cares about her music when it comes to making the album and making videos. I don't deny that.

But when it comes to performing and promoting it she's really doesn't give it her all. Look at gma, billboard those performances where like bam here I am. Ok let's go home. She doesn't feel them. I know Britney cares about her music. But not after the album is done though.

well she does have a family to take care of. I do know where your coming from though bc with this and the circus era it felt like as soon as the album landed the tour started right after it. She did take the time to go to award shows and promote this album, so it's a start. Remeber in the Circus era we didn't get any major Award show performances/appearances. (minus Bambi, but I never really considered it a big award show.)

But on the promo as a whole, just bc she doesn't promote alot doesn't mean she doesn't care. I mean when Madonna had her last few albums (including Hard Candy) her promotion was few and far between as well. But bc Brit or Madonna hardly do promo doesn't mean they dont care about the album. At the end of the day Tours are promotion and she's on stage where she has fun and enjoys what she does, which is great!
